Westminster enforced county boundary changes are your enemy here. Most people refuse to use anything other than the "traditional" historical county of Lanarkshire, which disppeared off the map in about 1975 to be replaced by the rather generic Strathclyde, a name that has never really been accepted by the public at large in the same way that residents of Southport refuse to accept they are part of Merseyside. A lot of the old Scottish counties have since made comebacks, and I believe most of Glasgow is now back where it belongs - Lanarkshire.

Up until 1996 Glasgow was in Strathclyde. Now it's a Unitary Authority.

The region is Strathclyde, though I am not so sure if Glasgow is technically part of that. I think it could have its own adminstration as just the City of Glasgow, a bit like Edinburgh does (even though Edinburgh is technically in Midlothian region).

The counties of Scotland were local government subdivisions of Scotland until 1975. Glasgow was in Lanarkshire county before 1975.

Parts of North Glasgow (Bishopbriggs, Auchainairn, Robroyston areas) now come under East Dumbartonshire, Parts of SW Glasgow come under Renfrewshire (Cardonald, Hillington areas) or East Renfrewshire (Clarkston, Newton Mearns areas). SE Glasgow once u go over the Clyde from Dalmarnock anything south from there is now North Lararkshire (Rutherglen, Cambuslang areas).
