Areas of Scotland
Since 1996, Scotland is split in to Unitary Authorities; prior
to this, the split was designated by Council Regions and Districts
(1975-1996) and Counties (pre 1975). Below is a list of the various areas
within Scotland, both present and historical; a separate list of
cities, towns and villages is also available.
