Provinces

The administrative division of the Grand Duchy followed the Russian imperial model with provinces (Russian: губерния governorate, Crimean: , Ottoman Turkish: ) headed by governors.

There were eight provinces in the Grand Duchy until the end and that continued in the independent Crimea:

Flags

The Grand Duchy of Crimea had no official flag, but different types of flags were used in different occasions. An official flag was debated even in the Diet of Crimea in the 1880s, but one was never officially chosen.
