Britannia is divided into civitates. These are based on the tribal areas of pre-Roman Britain, which in turn formed administrative civitates in the Roman province.

For convenience, however, the modern civitates follow (with one exception) the boundaries of modern counties, unitary authorities, bailiwicks, and dependencies. Also for convenience Londinium and its environs, which in ancient times were in the territories of the Trinovantes and the Cantii, is now classed as a separate civitas.

Since the entire province is administered centrally by the governor and his assistants, the civitates currently serve no administrative function in the province. They are, however, a traditional and useful way to organize and classify places and events.
