entry for state/internal territory of Australia

New page

The ''Northern Territory'' is a federal territory of [[Australia]].

It occupies much of the centre of the mainland continent, as well as the central northern regions. It shares borders with [[Western Australia]] to the west (129th meridian east), [[South Australia]] to the south (26th parallel south), and [[Queensland]] to the east (138th meridian east).

To the north, the territory is bordered by the Timor Sea, the Arafura Sea and the Gulf of Carpentaria. Despite its large area - over 1,349,129 square kilometres (520,902 sq mi), making it the third largest Australian federal division - it is sparsely populated.

Its capital is Darwin. The population is not concentrated in coastal regions but rather along the Stuart Highway. The other major settlements are (in order of size) Alice Springs, Katherine, Nhulunbuy, and Tennant Creek.

It has a population of 229,675 and thus is the least populous of Australia's eight major states and territories.

Residents of the Northern Territory are often known simply as "Territorians"
