Redigerer Distrikter i Norge

{{objektivitet|Oversikten inneholder noen subjektive vurderinger og valg.}}
'''Liste over distrikter og regioner i Norge'''. Det finnes en rekke inndelinger i spesifikke sammenhenger, som [[prosti]]er i [[Den norske kirke]], [[tingrett]]distrikter, [[interkommunale regionråd]], tidligere [[fogderi]]er, SSBs [[økonomisk region|økonomiske regioner]] og NHOs [[næringsregion]]er.

Hva som definerer det enkelte distrikt vil fremgå av artiklene om dem. Noen entydig offisiell og universell inndeling av Norge, utenom fylkes- og kommunestrukturen, eksisterer ikke. Listen er således å betrakte som en oversikt og en samling av linker med informasjon om de respektive områdene, som til sammen dekker hele [[Norge]].
