context_page_description: A district is a second level administrative subdivision of Mongolia. The 21 Provinces of Mongolia are divided into 331 districts.
  On average, each district administers a territory of 4,200 km² with about 5,000 inhabitants, primarily nomadic herders. It has total revenues of 120 million Tögrög, 90% of which comes from national subsidies.
  Each district is again subdivided into bags. Most bags are of an entirely virtual nature. Their purpose is to sort the families of nomads in the district into groups, without a permanent human settlement.
  Officially, and occasionally on maps, many district seats bear a name different from that of the district. However, in practice the district seat is most often referred to under the name of the district, to the point of the official name of the district seat being unknown even to the locals.
