https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_government_in_California
City and County of San Francisco, model ibukota kabupaten.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Francisco
Santa Clara County, California ini berarti semacam "kecamatan" yang belum resmi jadi kabupaten dong, ya? Karena berada di wilayah San Fransisco, tapi disebut county. Nah lho? #cmiiw

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_View,_California

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilmington,_Delaware
Kalo negara bagian di AS adalah provinsi, maka Dover adalah ibukota provinsi, sedangkan Wilmington merupakan ibukota kabupaten. Seru juga, ya? Ibukota kabupaten lebih besar daripada provinsi. Wilmington ke DC 120,9 mil (194,57 kilometer). Lumayan jauh dari ibukota negara.
