Borgarfjarðarsýsla

Illustration — Traditional counties and towns of Iceland Iceland was historically divided into 23 counties known as sýslur (ˈsistlʏr̥), and 23 independent towns known as kaupstaðir. Iceland is now split up between 24 sýslumenn (magistrates) that are the highest authority over the local police (except in Reykjavík where there is a special office of police commissioner) and carry out administrative functions such as declaring bankruptcy and marrying people outside of the church. The jurisdictions of these magistrates often follow the lines of the historical counties, but not always.
