The process involved in the specification of cell identity in the posterior compartments of the segmented embryo. The regionalization process by which embryonic segments are divided into compartments that will result in differences in cell differentiation. The regionalization process by which specific areas of cell differentiation are determined along the anterior-posterior axis. The anterior-posterior axis is defined by a line that runs from the head or mouth of an organism to the tail or opposite end of the organism.
