Sardinia

Autonomous Region

Sardinia is an autonomous region of Italy that occupies the entire island of Sardinia together with neighbouring small islands. Statoids records its codes as IT.SD under HASC and ITG2 under NUTS, a census population of 1,639,362 and an area of 24,090 square kilometres, with Cagliari as the regional capital. The island is named Sardegna in Italian, Sardaigne in French, Cerdena in Spanish and Sardinien in German. Its provincial layout has been unsettled: four provinces created in 2001 were the subject of a referendum on 6 May 2012 whose result favoured their abolition, and the province of Cagliari includes the islands of Sant Antioco and San Pietro. The region is one of the first-level divisions of Italy.
