First Nations are the native tribes who lived in Canada before Eurpeans came there . Many Canadians also use "First Nations" to mean people with natives in their family trees . Many say it because these nations were here long before Canada , and to make it clearer that the First Nations have many cultures and that some of the cultures are very different from others
Other words that have been used for First Nations people ,tribes, and cultures have been "indigenous", Indian","Native Indian","Amerind," or "native",Now many people say "Indian"only about people from India
Canada's land is composed of thirteen parts :ten provinces and three territories . Canada is governed on the principles of a federation: the Provinces' governments share power with the Government of Canada (the federal government). The territories' governments have a more limited set of powers versus the federal government than that of the province'.
The provinces are located in the south of Canada ,and the territories are in the north ,where fewer people live.
Here is a list of the provinces , and their standard abbreviations , with their capitals (the cities where their governments have their offices).Canada 's capital city is Ottawa.
