<b>10 counties</b> (<a href="/wiki/Lithuanian_language" title="Lithuanian language">Lithuanian</a>: singular <i>apskritis</i>, plural <i>apskritys</i>), all named after their capitals. The counties are divided into <a href="/wiki/Municipalities_of_Lithuania" title="Municipalities of Lithuania">60 municipalities</a> (Lithuanian: singular <i>savivaldybė</i>, plural <i>savivaldybės</i>): 9 city municipalities, 43 district municipalities and 8 municipalities. Each municipality is then divided into <a href="/wiki/Elderate" class="mw-redirect" title="Elderate">elderates</a> (Lithuanian: singular <i>seniūnija</i>, plural <i>seniūnijos</i>). This division was created in 1994 and slightly modified in 2000. </p><p>Until 2010, the counties were administered by county governors (Lithuanian: singular – <i>apskrities viršininkas</i>, plural – <i>apskrities viršininkai</i>) appointed by the central government in <a href="/wiki/Vilnius" title="Vilnius">Vilnius</a>. Their primary duty was to ensure that the municipalities obey the laws and the <a href="/wiki/Constitution_of_Lithuania" title="Constitution of Lithuania">Constitution of Lithuania</a>. They did not have great powers vested in them, and so it was suggested that 10 counties are too much for Lithuania as the two smallest counties administer only four municipalities. Therefore, on 1 July 2010, the county administrations were abolished, but the counties themselves are retained for statistical and reporting purposes.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Modern <i>apskritys</i> should not be confused with <i>apskritys</i> that existed in the independent Lithuania during the <a href="/wiki/Interwar_period" title="Interwar period">interwar period</a>. At that time Lithuania had a two-tier administrative division: <i>apskritys</i> that were subdivided into <i>valsčiai.</i> Modern <i>apskritys</i> remain only a territorial and statistical unit, while the top-tier administrative division are the municipalities (<i>savivaldybės</i>), followed by elderships (<i>seniūnijos</i>), and sub-elderships in some areas (<i>seniūnaitijos</i>).
