00:00Many people get confused about what New York, New York City, Manhattan, and Long Island actually are.
00:06So New York is just one of the 50 U.S. states, and it's divided into 62 counties,
00:11which are administrative units with local governments.
00:14But five of these counties are completely unique.
00:16They are united, and together form New York City.
00:19It's the largest city in the state, but surprisingly, the capital is Albany.
00:23Even though about 8.5 million people live in New York City, nearly half of the state's population.
00:29Inside New York City, these counties are called boroughs, and each has its own name.
00:33The Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, and Staten Island.
00:38Boroughs are different from regular city districts because each one has its own court, prosecutor, and administration.

01:02Two of New York City's boroughs, Brooklyn and Queens, are geographically located on it,
01:07as well as two separate counties, Nassau and Suffolk, which are not part of New York City.
