List Of Cities In Malta

By the usual standards that most other countries use when designating a city, Malta's cities would be too small to be considered such. There are, however, a small number of communities traditionally regarded as cities by virtue of receiving the designation of "città" during the rule of the Knights of St John (and one during the British rule). In Maltese law, there is no distinction made between cities, towns, and villages; the status is purely honorary. Malta is divided into 68 local councils.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or cities:

    I made a list of things I have
    to remember and a list
    of things I want to forget,
    but I see they are the same list.
    Linda Pastan (b. 1932)

    Religious literature has eminent examples, and if we run over our private list of poets, critics, philanthropists and philosophers, we shall find them infected with this dropsy and elephantiasis, which we ought to have tapped.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    What care though rival cities soar
    Along the stormy coast,
    Penn’s town, New York, Baltimore,
    If Boston knew the most!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
