Pages describing medium-sized political divisions—typically something like a state, province, or small country. These pages are primarily used for grouping, but may also contain relevant historical information, landmarks, and resources for research.

Place pages may be categorized as locales, territories, or regions. Territories contain multiple locales, while regions contain multiple territories.

The modern name of the territory is used; if, in the past, another name was used or political boundaries were different, the page describes how the modern area was referred to and affiliated historically. Aliases may exist for older names.
