Regions are defined in Webster's or Funk & Wagnall's as a large and 'indefinite' part of the surface of the earth.
In Ontario, ODP editors have 'defined' seven regions organized by geographic area, and containing specific counties and districts. The Ontario Regions below, list the Counties and Districts which they embrace.
Please note that these seven regions should not be confused with regional municipalities, of which there are a number in Ontario. Regional municipalities are listed in the Localities sub-category.
