Imagua and the Assimas has a two-tier division of administrative divisions: counties being the first-level administrative divisions, and local government areas being the second-level administrative divisions.
Counties
Imagua and the Assimas are divided into eight counties (Vespasian: contee, Western Imaguan Creole: lan), with all but the Assimas County being situated on the island of Imagua.
As a unitary state, the Constitution of Imagua and the Assimas only stipulates that counties be used as the area of jurisdiction for county courts. Otherwise, counties only receive responsibilities explicitly delegated to it by Parliament. Most counties only have responsibility over regional planning, highway construction and highway maintenance (excluding the Imaguan Motorway, which is the responsibility of the national government), land registration, waste disposal, and categorising local government areas as municipalities or parishes. However, Assimas County has powers over setting educational standards in all schools in the county, and can oversee its own welfare system and "social development" initiatives, while Cuanstad has the powers of a local government area and a county.
All counties are governed by county councils (Vespasian: consigli di contea, Western Imaguan Creole: lankonsili), who are responsible for passing legislation for these areas, as well as setting budgets for county services.

Local government areas
The second level administrative divisions in Imagua and the Assimas are collectively and officially known as local government areas (Vespasian: aree di governo locale, Western Imaguan Creole: lokal kuheno alia). The two types of local government areas are municipalities (Vespasian: comuni, Western Imaguan Creole: bui), and parishes (Vespasian: parrocchie, Western Imaguan Creole: sokeni).
Local government areas are responsible for the provision of social housing, emergency services, waste collection, public transportation, recreational facilities, libraries, and cemeteries per the Local Government Act of 1987. Per the Education Act, local government areas are school districts, although unlike those delegated to local government areas by the Local Government Act of 1987 or other acts of parliament, school districts are run by a separate school board and not by the local council. All other responsibilities were delegated to the county or to the national governments. All local government areas are governed via local councils (either a municipal council or a parish council depending on status).
As of 2021, there are 193 local government areas, of which 125 are municipalities, and 68 are parishes. The median population as of the 2021 census for all local government areas is 6,967.25 people.
