| Northwest Territories |
|
The Northwest Territories are much smaller than they used to be. At one time, they included today's Northwest Territories as well as Yukon, Nunavut, Alberta, Saskatchewan and much of Manitoba. The name has evolved as well, so references to North West Territories and North-West Territories may be found. The capital is Yellowknife.
