{{Countyrow|Name= |N= |Num= |Seat= |Data1= |Data2= ... |Data6= |Population=|Area=}}

Required parameters

• Name= is the name of the county without the word "County" as used in the link, e.g. Los Angeles County, California or Arlington County, Virginia you would use Name=Los Angeles or Name=Arlington etc.
• N= is the two-digit FIPS state code of the county's state, e.g. N=04 for Arizona, N=10 for Delaware, etc. The name of the state will be composed from this number.
• Num= is the three-digit fips county code for that county, e.g. N=001 or N=037 etc.
• Seat= is the county seat. The state's name is included automatically in the wikilink. Can be replaced with noseat parameter (see below)
• Population= is the population of the county. This must be given as a raw number without any commas, as the etmplate formats this value using the {{nts}} template.
• Area= is the total area of the county:
  • If this is a raw number, then the template will assume its the area in square miles, format it with {{nts}}, and also give the area in square kilometers.
  • If this isn't a raw number, then then the value is dsiplayed unaltered
• A map is automically generated, using the information from the parameters given, with a size of 150px. See also map and size paramets below.

Optional parameters

• Type= Normally, the county link is of the form [['name' county, state|'name' county]]. If non-empty, then link becomes [['name' 'type', state|'name' 'type']].
  • Notype=yes results in no addition being apended to the county name. (e.g. for City and County of Honolulu).
• Noseat= is used when a county doesn't have one seat. The value of this parameter is displayed instead. (For example, a note about the lack of seat, or the details of multiple seats)
