Yorkshire is a region in England.
Yorkshire is the largest traditional county of England, covering some 6,000 sq. miles (15,000 km²) with a population of some five million. It is traditionally divided into West, North and East Ridings (from Old Norse þriðing, "third part", a legacy of the area's ninth century Scandinavian settlers). The City of York is not part of any riding.
In Hattrick terms, it is the second largest region in England (after London) boasting over 1000 active users, and is represented in the English Premier by the season 27 runners up FSE
