    Territorial authorities in New Zealand, sorted by their encompassing or overlapping regions, are as per the list in "Territorial authorities of New Zealand". There are district councils, city councils, and unitary authorities. City and district boundaries do not overlap.
    "Territorial authority" is the generic term used for local government entities in New Zealand. Local government has gone through three principal phases with different structures: the provincial era, from 1853 to 1876; the counties and boroughs system from 1876 until 1989; and the current system of regions, cities and districts.
    From the late 19th century local authorities proliferated in New Zealand, with almost 4,000 bodies in 1912. In 1989 sweeping reforms consolidated around 850 organisations into just 86. Another major change was the establishment of a โ€˜super-cityโ€™ council for Auckland in 2010.
    New Zealand's local government structural arrangements were significantly reformed by the Local Government Commission in 1989 when approximately 700 councils and special purpose bodies were amalgamated to create 87 new local authorities.
