The Republic of Artsakh currently claims seven administrative divisions. When established, Artsakh established eight administrative divisions, however, after the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war, Kashatagh Province ceased to exist, as a claim no longer exists on this territory with the per the ceasefire agreement. The territory of Artsakh includes most of four districts of the former Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast (NKAO), with the fifth district, Hadrut Province, completely under Azerbaijani control. Also claimed by Artsakh is the Shahumyan Region of the Azerbaijan SSR, which has been under Azerbaijani control since the First Nagorno-Karabakh war. While the Shahumyan Region was not part of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast, representatives from Shahumyan declared independence along with the Oblast, and the proclamation of Artsakh includes the Shahumyan region within its borders.
