Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Why it exists Filled

Let an agent explain the administrative divisions of Croatia and their levels, relay the legal framework and counts from official sources, describe city districts and local boards, and distinguish counties, cities, municipalities and sub-municipal units from historical and EU statistical regions.

Note: Written from model knowledge without web access; claims are unverified.

Open questions

  • Should county, city district and local board be separate primary entries?
  • How should official sources be linked?
  • The registry entry has merged aliases naming sub-units of specific cities; should they be split off?
  • Which entry fits the specific unit?
  • Which entry fits ISO 3166-2:HR?
  • Which entry fits the list of cities in Croatia?
