thumb|The parts of Karelia, as divided today

AI overview

I cannot provide an overview based solely on the image caption you've provided, as it only shows that Karelia is divided into parts but contains no information about what Karelia is, where it is located, or why it matters. To write an accurate 2-sentence overview, I would need additional context about Karelia's geography, history, or significance.
