The county administration is in the village of Hermansverk in Leikanger municipality. The largest town in the county is Førde. Although Sogn og Fjordane has some industry, predominantly hydroelectricity and aluminium, it is predominantly an agricultural area. Sogn og Fjordane is also home to the Urnes Stave Church and the Nærøyfjord, which are both listed by UNESCO as world heritage sites. The Sogn og Fjordane University College has campuses in Sogndal, Sandane, and Førde. ==Name== The name ''Sogn og Fjordane'' was created in 1919; a literal translation is: ''Sogn and the fjords.'' The first element is the name of the region of Sogn, located in the southern part of the county. The last element is the plural definite form of ''fjord'', which refers to the two regions in the county called Nordfjord and Sunnfjord in the northern and central parts of the county. Prior to 1919, the name of the county was ''Nordre Bergenhus amt'' which meant ''"(the) northern (part of) Bergenhus amt"''. (The old Bergenhus amt, created in 1662, was divided into northern and southern halves in 1763.) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sogn og Fjordane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
