Users can browse Tibetan territory in two ways: by traditional Tibetan divisions of the Plateau, or by contemporary political divisions within the Communist Chinese State. The traditional divisions are: UTsang, Kham, and Amdo. UTsang is then divided into U, Tsang, Ngari, Lhokha, and Nakchuka / Changtang, with smaller regions within each. The divisions of Kham and Amdo are by historic kingdoms and monastic estates.

The contemporary divisions are according to Chinese provinces, prefectures, and counties.

Other countries are listed independently.
