Districts of Serbia
Okruzi are the Districts of Serbia.
Okrug is a term to denote administrative subdivision in some Slavic states. Its etymology is similar to German Kreis, circle (in the meaning of administrative division) (although translated in German as Bezirk): okrug is literally something "encircling".
In subdivisions of Serbia, the term is translated as district, sometimes as county.
