Haiti is divided into ten departments. The departments are listed below, with the departmental capital cities in parentheses.

Centre (Hinche)
Grand'Anse (Jérémie)
Nippes (Miragoâne)
Nord (Cap-Haïtien)
Nord-Est (Fort-Liberté)
Nord-Ouest (Port-de-Paix)
Ouest (Port-au-Prince)
Sud-Est (Jacmel)

The departments are further divided into 41 arrondissements, and 133 communes which serve as second- and third-level administrative divisions

See map at website which shows the relative geographic regions of each of these "communes".

It appears that the earthquake impacted these two, primarily:

Nord-Ouest (Port-de-Paix)
Ouest (Port-au-Prince)
