The counties of the United Kingdom are subnational divisions of the United Kingdom, used for the purposes of administrative, geographical and political demarcation. The older term, shire is historically equivalent to county. By the Middle Ages, county had become established as the unit of local government, at least in England. By the early 17th century, all of England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland had been separated into counties. In Scotland shire was the only term used until after the Act of Union 1707.

  • Οι κομητείες του Ηνωμένου Βασιλείου είναι ένα είδος υποεθνικής διαίρεσης με ιστορική προέλευση· το Μεσαίωνα είχαν σταθεροποιηθεί ως μια μονάδα τοπικής κυβέρνησης. Σε κάποιες περιοχές οι αρχαίες κομητείες έχουν προσαρμοστεί να εμφανίζουν τις εξουσίες της σύγχρονης τοπικής κυβέρνησης ενώ σε άλλες έχουν αντικατασταθεί με εναλλακτικά, ενωτικά, συστήματα· τα οποία θεωρούνται αρχές στο επίπεδο των κομητειών. (el)
  • Le comté désigne, au Royaume-Uni, le plus haut niveau d'administration locale. De nos jours, à la suite de l'évolution de leurs statuts au cours de l'histoire, on en distingue plusieurs types selon les époques et les régions. (fr)
  • イギリスのカウンティ(Counties of United Kingdom)は国の地方区分の一つで、その歴史的起源は中世までには確立していた地方行政単位にある。古代のカウンティが現代の地方行政を担うようになっている所もあれば、「カウンティレベル」の行政体と考えられている単一システムで置き換えられている所もある。 (ja)
  • De graafschappen van het Verenigd Koninkrijk (county) zijn in het Verenigd Koninkrijk een landelijke onderverdeling van historische origine; in de middeleeuwen werden ze ingesteld als een eenheid van plaatselijk bestuur. In sommige gebieden zijn de oude graafschappen aangepast om de functies van het moderne lokale bestuur uit te voeren terwijl dit in andere graafschappen vervangen is door andere op zich staande eenheden; die op als eenheden op 'graafschap niveau' beschouwd worden.

  • Os condados do Reino Unido são um tipo de divisão subnacional de origem histórica; na Idade Média tinham se estabelecido como uma unidade de governo local. Em algumas áreas, os antigos condados se mantiveram e foram adaptados para desempenhar as funções do moderno governo local, enquanto que em áreas muito pequenas e rurais se formaram autoridades unitárias, cuja autoridade é equivalente a dos condados. Nessas áreas, a divisão adicional da administração do condado em subdivisões distritais não seria nada além de adicional peso burocrático. (pt)

  • 영국의 주 (Counties of the United Kingdom)는 영국에서 사용되는 행정·지리·정치적 지역 단위이다. 영국의 네 구성국인 잉글랜드, 스코틀랜드, 웨일스, 북아일랜드의 네 지역별로 각각 별개의 주가 설치되어 있다. 영어로 '카운티' (county)라 하는데, 이것은 미국에서는 군에 해당하기 때문에 혼동의 여지가 있어 주의가 필요하다. 한편으로 '셔' (shire)라는 명칭도 존재하는데 이는 옛날 영국에서 주를 가리키던 말로, 지금도 요크셔주, 버킹엄셔주 등의 지명에 그 흔적이 남아 있다. 스코틀랜드에서는 아예 주를 '셔'로만 부르다가 1707년 연합법으로 잉글랜드 왕국과 합병되면서 카운티라고도 부르게 되었다.

  • Storbritanniens grevskap (counties) är administrativa, ceremoniella och geografiska enheter, ungefär motsvarande län i Sverige och Finland eller departement i Frankrike. Skottland och Wales är sedan 1996 indelade i kommuner som kan vara större, mindre eller lika stora som de historiska grevskapen. Vissa av dessa kallas counties, men det har ingen praktisk betydelse. Grevskapen ersattes 1975 i Skottland av regioner, med struktur liknande de samtida grevskapen i England och Wales. Grevskapens residensstäder i Storbritannien benämns county towns. (sv)
