In this video I introduced administrative divisions as formally agreed country subdivisions. This is true, but it’s more complicated than I could explain in my slides. ADM1 levels are part of the formal ISO-3166-2 standard but this does not include levels ADM2 through to ADM5. For a human readable breakdown of the lower level administrative divisions I recommend reading Wikipedia’s list of administrative divisions.
If you’re looking for a country’s Census or Statistics Offices I’d recommend searching:
Wikipedia’s list of national statistics offices
The UN’s list of national statistics offices
