'+Description+': The regional structure, from the definition, is clearly very flexible since there is no further determination of its structure, and no specific criteria for its make up in either the Constitutions or the Regulations. Indeed the precise term ''region'' appears only once in the Constitutions and Regulations, and then in the plural (R. 77). Certain possible, though not obligatory features however can be inferred from the tasks of the Regional Councillor: interprovincial structures, regional offices of documentation. Curiously this is not the case for another structure known as the provincial conference which is given more precise description in the regulations.

Regions currently designated are: Africa-Madagascar, North Europe, Western Europe, Italy-Middle East, South Asia, East Asia-Oceania, Interamerica, America South Cone

'+Context (examples of use)+': Our community life of prayer will have a practical guide in the form of a manual to be prepared by the provinces, provincial conferences or regions. (R. 77)

(:zapend:) (:zapform key=Type:) '''Term type''' ('EntryTerm' ''if no other applies)'' (1) (2) [Initialisms like AGC are regarded as acronyms; a term like 'Bro.' is an abbreviation; an example of short form instead would be the main part of a very long book title (most of DB's book titles! 'Giovane Provveduto' is a short form). A loan term is not translated whereas a calque is. A blend is where two (or more) morphemes or 'word' parts have been combined to form a single term, as in the case of 'austraLasia'. Choose variant when there exists at least one other common form of the term. ] (:zapend:)

Deprecated indicates official disapproval or if not disapproval, official abandonment at least.
