The Commonwealth is divided into twelve regions corresponding to the twelve municipios of Verona which became the original twelve counties, from which the current fifty-three were divided. These regions, although they are not official administrative divisions of the state, do have some legal weight as the state still uses them to allocate and divide certain resources. They are most commonly seen as corresponding to the borders of Verona's twelve major metro areas. It is not uncommon for state agencies to endorse these regions in official capacities, for example, with the Verona Tourism Authority frequently using them for promotion purposes. | The Commonwealth is divided into twelve regions corresponding to the twelve municipios of Verona which became the original twelve counties, from which the current fifty-three were divided.
