<h2 id="history">History</h2> <p>The introduction of self government in rural districts was a major political change. The Norwegian farm culture (<i>bondekultur</i>) that emerged came to serve as a symbol of nationalistic resistance to the forced <a href="/facts/Union_between_Sweden_and_Norway/UUoFvzJN">union with Sweden</a>. The legislation of 1837 gave both the towns and the rural areas the same institutions: a minor change for the town, but a major advance for the rural communities. The significance of this legislation is hailed by a nationalistic historian, <a href="/facts/Ernst_Sars/Jdbtbqah">Ernst Sars</a>:<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2"><sup>2</sup></a> </p> "So great an advance in relation to the political development of the people that on that account it can almost be placed alongside the Constitution. By it the free constitution was given a broad basis to rest upon and be nourished from, and became related to the daily life and activity of the people in such a way that its principles could penetrate everywhere and be most effectively acquired... There was at that time scarcely any European state where local self-government was so well organized and so widely ramified as it became in Norway through the legislation of 1837."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3"><sup>3</sup></a> <p>In 1853, the land registration law superseded the <i>formannsskapsdistrikt</i> by introduction of a new designation, the <a href="/facts/List_of_municipalities_of_Norway/P3CHR5ug">municipality</a> (<a href="/facts/Norwegian_language/TGEyeerM">Norwegian</a>: <i>herred</i>). Two forms of municipality were created: "rural municipality" and "city" (or "<a href="/facts/Market_town/gLsYmDe6">market town</a>"). Each district was to elect a body of selectmen of no less than 12 and no more than 48 members. This body selected a quarter of their members as a committee, which together with the local magistrate, established taxes to be levied and improvements to be performed in the district. The local chairman also represented the municipality at the <a href="/facts/Counties_of_Norway/4UHCG8Tt">county</a> level.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4"><sup>4</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a> </p><p>Almost one century later in 1936, a local self-government district law was enacted which created 682 rural municipalities (<i>landkommuner</i>) and 65 city municipalities (<i>bykommuner</i>) in Norway. Among the city municipalities, 43 had the status of market town (<a href="/facts/Kj%25C3%25B8pstad/urgDq9Qh">kjøpstad</a>) and 22 were recognized harbors for export/import (<a href="/facts/Ladested/urgDq9Qh">ladested</a>). Norway included a subordinate category to the market town, the "small seaport" (<i>lossested</i> or <i>ladested</i>), which was a port or harbor with a monopoly to import and export goods and materials in both the port and for a surrounding outlying district. Typically, these were locations for exporting timber and importing grain and goods. Local farm goods and timber sales were all required to pass through merchants at either a lading place or a market town prior to export. This incentive ensured that local trading went through local merchants, a technique which was so effective in limiting <a href="/facts/Smuggling/BdPclLAp">smuggling</a> that customs revenues increased from less than 30% of the total tax revenues in 1600 to more than 50% of the total taxes by 1700.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a> </p><p>During the last half of the 20th century, the distinction between the different types of municipalities was decreased, and in 1992, legislation eliminated all distinctions. Now, all municipalities (<a href="/facts/Norwegian_language/TGEyeerM">Norwegian</a>: <i>kommuner</i>) are simply municipalities.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="list-of-districts">List of districts</h2> <p>This is a list of the districts that were initially created on 1 January 1838.
