  The occupation of more than one single-particle state and hence the emergence
of fragmentation is a many-body phenomenon universal to systems of spatially
confined interacting bosons. In the present study, we investigate the effect of
the range of the interparticle interactions on the fragmentation degree of one-
and two-dimensional systems. We solve the full many-body Schr\"odinger equation
of the system using the recursive implementation of the multiconfigurational
time-dependent Hartree for bosons method, R-MCTDHB. The dependence of the
degree of fragmentation on dimensionality, particle number, areal or line
density and interaction strength is assessed. It is found that for contact
interactions, the fragmentation is essentially density independent in two
dimensions. However, fragmentation increasingly depends on density the more
long-ranged the interactions become. The degree of fragmentation is increasing,
keeping the particle number $N$ fixed, when the density is decreasing as
expected in one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that this remains,
nontrivially, true also for long-range interactions in two spatial dimensions.
We, finally, find that within our fully self-consistent approach, the
fragmentation degree, to a good approximation, decreases universally as
$N^{-1/2}$ when only $N$ is varied.
