[edit] Syria Governorate Infobox
I have created an Infobox. Could anyone help expanding it to all Governorates? Here is the usage:
{{Infobox Syria Governorate
|governorate_name =
|muhafazat_name =
|loc_map =
|capital =
|latd =
|longd =
|area =
|pop =
|pop_year =
|pop_density =
|num_districts =
|languages= [[Arabic language|Arabic]]<br/>
}}
Note:
- muhafazat_name is the governorate_name in arabic.
- Longtude and Lattitude are Decimal. °N/°E are appended automatically.
- Area is in km².
- Density is in /km².

[edit] Borders change?
Does anyone know if the governorate boundaries have changed in the past 17 years, or what year the current map used on this page and subsequent governorate pages is based from? Some of the gorvernorates look like they have different borders than the 1990 edition map from the CIA. Particularly Dimashq and Hims. Thanks. Meateatingvegan 21:12, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
