==Administrative divisions==
Bermuda has two municipal [[Administrative division|subnational entities]]: the city of Hamilton and the town of St. George. There are also nine traditional parishes, but these have no administrative or legal role. When Bermuda was first colonised, the territory was divided between eight primary landowners (the shareholders of the Bermuda Company) in equal allotments, and public land (St. George's); these divisions, then called "Tribes", came to be known as "Parishes". Until the late 20th century, the parishes maintained their own community councils responsible for such functions as birth records. Today, the Bermuda parishes are as follows:<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://bernews.com/government/parishes-of-bermuda/|title=Parishes of Bermuda Parishes|website=Bernews|access-date=2019-07-09}}</ref>
