The Capuchin Province of Mid-America is but one of 159 regional groupings of Capuchin friars in 101 different countries. These groups, according their relative independence from or dependence on one another, are designated as provinces, general viceprovinces, viceprovinces, custodies, depedencies & houses of presence. Many of the groups have websites of their own, as does our international headquarters in Rome. On the following pages, all of the groups are listed in goldface and are hot-linked to their web sites. Links are also given for web pages of organizations and friars within the various circumscriptions. Altogether 308 Capuchin links are listed here.

Using search engines to find "Capuchins" or its various linguistic variants, such as Cappuccini, Capuchinos, Caputxins, Capuchinhos, Kapuziner, Kapucijnen, Kapucyni, etc., will also produce an endless procession of web sites concerning a private family, mountains, hills, bridges, piazzas, streets, parts of towns, whole towns, hotels, restaurants, cloaks, clothing, coffees, chocolates, beers, vineyards, and especially monkeys named after the Capuchins. None of these are listed here.
