All the chats in County Durham

The county of Durham is one of the forty-seven counties of England, United Kingdom, with capital in the homonym Durham. Located in the Northeast region, it borders Northumberland and Tyne and Wear to the north, North Sea to the east, North Yorkshire to the south and Cumbria to the west. It is a county of strong contrasts: the interior zone is sparsely populated while the coastline is highly urbanized. For a time it was one of the main points of the coal mining industry. The name of the county is unique in all of England. Many counties receive their name from their capital, so in this case the name would have to be "Durhamshire".

The reason why it is called Durham County is that the Durham Princes-Bishops exercised their power in other regions far from the county so the inner part was given the name of Durham County in opposition to the rest of the "Durham State" " Durham County has its boundaries with the Pennines to the west, the Tees River to the south, the North Sea to the east and the Tyne and Derwent rivers to the north. The name "County of Durham" is used to refer to three different entities: the traditional county, the ceremonial and the administrative.
