I'm currently looking for Counties in the UK and Ireland and want to put together a list of counties that participants will be able to represent in my upcoming competition... but I just wanted to run by, with fellow people from the UK, if I've got that information correct.
I'm fairly confident that I have all the English Counties accounted for but when it comes to Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and The Republic of Ireland I don't want to accidentally use a county in my competition that doesn't exist anymore. I want people to confirm or disagree with the current lists I have in order for this competition to be as accurate as possible before I start outlining the counties on this:
Pretty cool huh?
So here's what I've got:
England:
Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Bristol,
Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Cheshire,
Cornwall, Cumbria, Derbyshire,
Devon, Dorset, Durham,
East Riding of Yorkshire, East Sussex, Essex,
Gloucestershire, Greater London, Greater Manchester,
Hampshire, Herefordshire, Hertfordshire,
Isle of Wight, Kent, Lancashire,
Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Merseyside,
Norfolk, North Yorkshire, Northamptonshire,
Northumberland, Nottinghamshire, Oxfordshire,
Rutland, Shropshire, Somerset,
South Yorkshire, Staffordshire, Suffolk,
Surrey, Tyne and Wear, Warwickshire,
West Midlands, West Sussex, West Yorkshire,
Wiltshire, Worcestershire,
Scotland:
Aberdeenshire, Angus, Argyll,
Ayrshire, Banffshire, Berwickshire,
Bute, Caithness, Clackmannanshire,
Dumfriesshire, Dunbartonshire, East Lothian,
Fife, Glasgow, Inverness-shire,
Kincardineshire, Kinross-shire, Kirkcudbrightshire,
Lanarkshire, Midlothian, Moray,
Nairn, Orkney Islands, Peeblesshire,
Perthshire, Renfrewshire, Ross and Cromarty,
Roxburghshire, Selkirkshire, Shetland Islands,
Stirlingshire, Sutherland, West Lothian,
Wigtownshire,
Wales:
Clwyd, Dyfed, Gwent,
Gwynedd, Mid Glamorgan, Powys,
South Glamorgan, West Glamorgan,
Northern Ireland:
Antrim, Armagh, Belfast,
Down, Fermanagh, Derry,
Tyrone,
Republic of Ireland:
Carlow, Cavan, Clare,
Cork, Donegal, Dublin,
Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown, Fingal, Galway,
Kerry, Kildare, Kilkenny,
Laois, Leitrim, Limerick,
Longford, Louth, Mayo,
Meath, Monaghan, Offaly,
Roscommon, Sligo, South Dublin,
Tipperary, Waterford, Westmeath,
Wexford, Wicklow,
and I also got the Isles:
Bailiwick of Guernsey, Jersey, and Isle of Man.
So what do you guys think, have I somehow missed a county out? Are there counties in that list that haven't been recognized for ages?
Before people say, "can't you just Google it?" I have been but I always get conflicting information as some articles are outdated (for example North and South Tipperary are now one big "Tipperary" again but in many websites and images online they were separated), some wiki articles represent Lieutenancy Areas and Preserved Areas as "Counties" with different names but... they are in the same place, so which one is correct is hard for me to determine.
Thanks in advance for any help ^-^
*edit* fixed a problem with the image.
