		Urban and rural districts were abolished in 1974, and replaced with a uniform system of larger districts.

		Councils such as districts, counties and unitaries are known as principal local authorities in order to differentiate them in their legal status from parish and town councils, which are not uniform in their existence.
		In some districts, the rural area is parished and the urban is not - such as in the borough of Shrewsbury and Atcham, where the town of Shrewsbury is unparished and has no local councils, while the countryside around the town is parished.
		Scotland and Wales moved to a fully unitary system in 1996, whilst expansion of unitary government in England happened haphazardly, leaving parts of the country unitary, and other parts two-tier — a system similar to that which prevailed between 1890 and 1974 in the whole of Great Britain.

		The districts with the smallest proportions of Welsh speakers are the main urban districts of south and north-east Wales, rural districts on the border with England, South Pembrokeshire (known as the little England beyond Wales') and the Vale of Glamorgan.
		The Act of Annexation in 1536, which attempted to integrate Wales and its language with the English state, meant that the reproduction of the language was restricted to the family, community, and religion.
		There are no laws in Wales explicitly discriminating against Welsh, as there are in the case of Irish in the north of Ireland, but there is a whole range of administrative practices that make it difficult to use Welsh in certain places.
