Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Turkey is divided into 81 provinces (Turkish: il). Each province is divided into a number of different districts (ilçe). The provincial government is seated in the central district (merkez ilçe).  The central area usually bears the name of the province (e.g. the city of Van is the central district of Van Province).  There are only three exceptions to this naming scheme: 

Adapazarı of Sakarya Province
Antakya of Hatay Province
İzmit of Kocaeli ProvinceA province is administered by an appointed governor (vali) from the ministry of interior.
