walesThe United Kingdom is formed by four constituent countries - England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland of the North that have different systems from subdivisions whose origin goes back previous to the formation of the United Kingdom. Recently, the responsibility of the local government is decentralized for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, but it does not stop England since it does not count on a decentralized parliament as they have the other constituent countries. In England, the legislation corresponding to the territorial organization it is to have of the Parliament and the Government of the United Kingdom, since England does not count on a decentralized parliament. From 1994 England it is divided in first level in 9 regions. The region of the Great London solely has a chosen assembly and a mayor directly - from year 2000-, after the popular approval of a referendum in 1998 that created the Authority of the Great London. One seted out that the remaining regions also had a chosen regional assembly, but after the refusal to the creation of these in the north of England in a referendum in 2004 this option retired. Under the regional level, the Great London is divided in 32 municipalities (boroughs) plus the City of London, and the rest of England is divided in metropolitan and nonmetropolitan counties - that are divided as well in districts, or unitary authorities. Northern Ireland, from 1973, is divided administratively in 26 districts, each with an advice chosen by transferable personal vote and with limited powers to pick up wastes, control of dogs and the maintenance of parks and cemeteries. Nevertheless, the 13 of March of 2008, the Executive of Northern Ireland accepted the proposals to create 11 new advice to replace the present system, who will consist of combinations of the 26 existing ones. In order to facilitate this change, the next local elections will be year 2011

Scotland: The historical divisions in Scotland are varied and include counties, duchies, burghs (independent cities represented in the Parliament of Scotland) and parishes. In 1975 he began operating a division in regions and districts, however, was abolished in 1996. Since then, for administrative purposes Scotland is divided into 32 council areas or "council", run by a unitary authority responsible for all local services. The Community councils (community councils), meanwhile, are informal organizations representing certain subdivisions within the district.

There are other distinct subdivisions of Scotland for different purposes. Thus, systems of fire and police are still based on the division into regions introduced in 1975. For the health system for the postal districts as well as other governmental and nongovernmental organizations, various geographical subdivisions remain long tradition.

The status of "city" in Britain is determined by a royal patent. There are six cities in Scotland: Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow and more recently, Inverness and Stirling
