Canton: "The cantons of France are territorial subdivisions of the French Republic's 341 arrondissements and 100 departments.
Apart from their role as organizational units in certain aspects of the administration of public services and justice, the chief purpose of the cantons today is to serve as constituencies for the election of the members of the representative assembly (General Council) in each department. For this reason, such elections are known in France as 'cantonal elections'."
