Borough
In other places, such as Alaska, a borough does not mean a single township, but a whole region - in other words, it is similar to a county.  In Australia borough can mean a town and its surrounding area, e.g. the Borough of Queenscliffe.  Boroughs exist in United Kingdom, more specifically in England and Northern Ireland, in the Canadian province of Quebec, in several U.S. states, in Israel, and formerly they also existed in New Zealand.
