Guatemala is divided in 22 Departamentos, these departments are somewhat equivalent to states in the U.S. and to provinces in Canada, although it's government administration is very linked with Guatemala City. These departments are divided in Municipios. There are a total of 331 Municipios, but I am missing one somewhere.

These Departamentos are: 

Alta Verapaz Jalapa
Baja  Verapaz Jutiapa
Chimaltenango Quetzaltenango
Chiquimula Retalhuleu
El Petén Sacatepéquez
El Progreso San Marcos
El Quiché Santa Rosa
Escuintla Sololá
Guatemala Suchitepéquez
Huehuetenango Totonicapán
Izabal Zacapa
