Counties of Norway
|
|
Norway is divided into 19 administrative regions, called counties (fylker, singular - fylke, Nynorsk: singular and plural fylke - until 1918 known as amter, singular - amt), and 433 municipalities (kommuner - Nynorsk: kommunar). Oslo is considered as both a county and a municipality. There is some political disagreement on whether counties are a practical or indeed necessary level of administration. See politics of Norway for more information.
