Considering the balanced and comprehensive development of the provinces of the country, reducing heterogeneity and inequality, policy making and planning to achieve goals that vary according to the structural characteristics, facilities and constraints of each province, requires the study and recognition of the characteristics of each province according to its location in the whole system of the country. In this research, different provinces of the country have been ranked by the TOPSIS and SAW methods in the fileds of "social, cultural and political", "economic and production" and "infrastructure and technical". The results of the ranking of the provinces, indicate that the provinces have different positions. For example, the provinces of Semnan, Ilam and South Khorasan ranked first to third in the fileds of social, cultural and political issues, but the provinces of Fars, Mazandaran and Khorasan Razavi were top ranked in the fileds of economy and production, and the provinces of Isfahan, Mazandaran and Qom ranked first to third in terms of infrastructure and technical indicators.
