Provinces of Argentina became provinces in 1951. Misiones did so in 1953, and Formosa, Neuquén, Río Negro, Chubut and Santa Cruz, in 1955. The last national territory, Tierra del Fuego, became the Tierra del Fuego, Antártida e Islas del Atlántico Sur Province in 1990. Argentina is a federation of twenty-three provinces and one autonomous city, Buenos Aires.

Buenos Aires City itself is divided into communes ("comuna") and non-official neighbourhoods ("barrios"). Provinces hold all the power that they chose not to delegate
