We need to copy Canada: just give up and assign that unpopulated blob as “Northwest Territories “. All done in one move

But even Canada gave up on that approach and is having Nunavut.

I was actually intending to phrase it like that since I thought one replaced the other but looked at a map and apparently both currently exist. Either I m looking at a bad map or haven’t paid enough attention to the news from our neighbor to the north

Heh i love making Nunavut jokes around Canadians. They split it off a while back forget the reason it’s recent ish ~25 years ago.
