avid_euphoria Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 I live in the U.S and although our county budget has always been a joke we get taught a lot about Geography and things of that sort. Like Canada, in 6th grade we spent a lot of time studying the country, we even went on a field trip to Toronto, it was nice seeing the rainbow in the morning that was over the Niagra Falls.... :) But Molly I see what you mean. Our government rather spend money on something that supports death rather than education...sad. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busybeeburns Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 oooooooo ok.....and the counties have cities....or do they call them towns over there In the UK cities and towns are different... if the place has got a cathedral then its a city, if not its a town :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tifosi Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 oooooooo ok.....and the counties have cities....or do they call them towns over there Bedfordshire Berkshire Buckinghamshire Cambridgeshire Cheshire Cornwall County of London Cumberland Derbyshire Devonshire Dorsetshire Durham Essex Gloucestershire Hampshire Heresfordshire Hertfordshire Huntingdonshire Kent Lancashire Leicestershire Lincolnshire Middlesex Norfolk Northamptonshire Northumberland Nottinghamshire Oxfordshire Rutland Shropshire Somersetshire Staffordshire Suffolk Surrey Sussex Warwickshire West Midlands Westmorland Wiltshire Worcestershire Yorkshire All hace a major town/city... normally a city. eg Lancashire is Lancaster, Yorkshire is York, bit of a pattern? Doesn't always follow. eg suffolk is Ipswitch. :) A city has by tradition a cathedral. So cities are Cathedral Towns. A city is a honorific title conferred by the monarchy... the last one was Salford. Sound like a teacher!!! aaaarrgghh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For American a State is a region and within a State there are many Cities. For Canada he regions are called Provinces, essentially it's the same as a State, and in the Provinces there are cities.
