The term township is used to denote a lower level territorial subdivision. Townships exist in Canada, China, South Africa, and the United States of America. For more information on townships specific to these countries, please follow the links below.

The word is derived from Old English tún meaning "manor".

The term township generally means the district or area associated with a town. However in some systems, especially in the U.S., no town need be involved, and indeed in the Scottish Highlands the term describes a very small agricultural community. Specific use of the term to describe political subdivisions has varied by country, usually to describe a local rural or semi-rural government within a county.
