about an election term the country music duo Blue County Image 2004 US elections purple counties.png thumb right 2004 Presidential election by county Red counties and blue counties are County United States counties of the United States whose residents predominantly and consistently vote for the Republican Party United States Republican Party or the Democratic Party United States Democratic Party , respectively. These patterns are seen in local, state, United States House of Representatives , United States Senate U.S. Senate , and U.S. Presidential election s. This term may also be used to describe the political representation of a county by county commission ers, State legislature United States state representatives , and State Senator state senators . Degrees between highly red and blue states are sometimes represented by intermediary hues, with states that do not have a clear political preference being represented as purple . Examining political preferences at the county level gives a different perspective than the more widely used Red states and blue states analysis at the state level . It is more likely to show differences based on the urban or rural make up of various counties, rather than a state s regional location in the country.

The various counties roughly defined what came to be known as the Principality of Catalonia . In 778, Charlemagne led his first expedition into Hispania . The territory that he subjugated to his rule was the kernel of Catalonia.
