The municipality (municipio) is the second tier of Cuba, between the provinces and the towns, and the unit a Cuban will use to say where in a province a place is. There are 168 of them, from the handful of tiny ones that make up central Havana to the swamp of Ciénaga de Zapata.
The municipalities of Cuba. Most are named for their main town, and a few have names that look out of place: Bolivia, Colombia and Venezuela are three municipalities in Ciego de Ávila, and Primero de Enero is named for the first of January 1959.
Two municipalities are called San Luis, one in Pinar del Río and one in Santiago de Cuba, and they are told apart in brackets. The Isle of Youth is a special municipality with no province above it, so it is both a municipality and its own group.
The map is very uneven. Havana alone packs fifteen into a few hundred square kilometres, and the smallest, Centro Habana, is about four square kilometres, so the smallest have a tap area wider than their outline and zooming in is the way to reach the rest. Beyond the capital the municipalities are broad and even, and Ciénaga de Zapata, the swamp on the south coast, is the largest.
The groups are the provinces, so the game lets you drill them one at a time. Each province answers under the same name in Cuba Provinces.
Centro Habana is the densest municipality in the country, a few blocks deep between the old town and the Vedado, and the smallest by area. It is small enough to need a tap area on the map.
Ciénaga de Zapata is the largest municipality in Cuba, in the south of Matanzas. It holds the Zapata Swamp and the Bay of Pigs, and very few people.
San Luis in Pinar del Río is the tobacco town in the west of the island. It shares its name with San Luis in Santiago de Cuba, far to the east. The brackets name the province, and so does the group the question is dealt from.
168, spread over fifteen provinces and the special municipality of the Isle of Youth.
There are two municipalities called San Luis, in Pinar del Río and in Santiago de Cuba. The bracket says which.
They are their own quiz, Cuba Provinces, and the map you are placing municipalities on is the same one.
The tier above this one is Cuba Provinces. For another country at this level, see Costa Rica Cantons.
