The Prefectures of Lugida (Lithian: Sefir), sometimes known informally or in historical contexts as the domains of Lugida, consist of 47 prefectures which form the first-level administrative divisions of Lugida. Of these, 41 are proper prefectures, three are special prefectures (Gerupa, Lenthir, and Melon), two are urban prefectures (Hara and Tom), and one is a capital prefecture (Natlia). The system was established in 1869 by the then-newly established administration of the Republic of Lugida to replace the former Kingdom of Melunair's system of circuits and its subdivision domains, hence the term 'domain' for prefectures. The term 'circuit' is still used to refer to the unofficially designated six regions of Lugida which consist of prefectures.
