Metropolitan and non-metropolitan counties of England

In 1974, the whole local Government of England reorganized and became the metropolitan and non-metropolitan counties of England (Metropolitan and non-metropolitan counties of England) imported.

There were many new counties formed, and other disappeared. A new category of metropolitan counties (metropolitan counties) was created for the six major urban areas outside London.

In 1990, the local Government reformed again. There have been many small unitary authorities (unitary authorities); in fact, municipalities with County status.

As of 2005 there are 81 administrative counties. Of these 34 shire counties, each with one county council and district councils (local governments), 40 multiple unitary authorities and six metropolitan counties. If the exception remains Berkshire over, where the county council has been lifted and the County districts have become unitary authorities, but without status. Finally, there is also Greater London.
