County [ˈkaʊnti] ist die englische Bezeichnung für Grafschaft. Vielfach wird die historische Bezeichnung jedoch auch für politische Verwaltungseinheiten bzw. Landkreise verwendet, denen keine Adelspersonen vorstehen. Siehe hierzu: * County (Irland) * County (Kanada) * * County (Vereinigte Staaten) * Grafschaft (Vereinigtes Königreich) * Grafschaft (England) * Grafschaft (Schottland) * Grafschaft (Wales) * Verwaltungsgliederung Jamaikas * County (Kenia): Kenia#Territoriale_Gliederung Auch in Australien gibt es Countys, die aber keinen Verwaltungszweck haben, sondern reine Katastereinheiten sind.
