Administrative history:
Today's Province of Balkh was part of the
former Province of Mazar-i-Sharif. Some sources claim that in 1964 Mazar-i-Sharif
was renamed Balkh, after Sheberghan province in 1957/58 was carved out and later
renamed Jowzjan, but some sources claim that the change of name from Mazar-i-Sharif
to Balkh occur only after 1975.
Administrative-territorial division and
municipalities:
Today Balkh Province has 16 186 km2, with about 1 300 000
inhabitants. The province has 15 districts - Balkh, Charbolak, Charkint, Chimtal,
Dawlatabad, Dihdadi, Kaldar, Khulm, Kishindih, Marmul, Mazar-i-Sharif, Nahri
Shahi, Sholgara, Shortepa, and Zari. There are 6 municipalities - one first
class Mazar-e Sharif, and 5 third class
municipalities - Balkh, Dawlat Abad (or Dawlatabad), Hairatan, Khulm, and
Shulgara (or Sholgara).
I didn't find any kind of symbols for the
province or for the districts. I found only seal of the Municipality of Balkh,
but didn't locate any photo of the flag.
