Kastelorizo

**Kastelorizo** ( - *Kastelorizo*, offeecially Μεγίστη - *Megisti*) is a Greek island an municipality locatit in the sootheastren Mediterranean. It lees roughly  aff the sooth coast o Turkey, aboot 570&nbsp;km sootheast o Athens an  east o Rhodes, amaist hawfwey atween Rhodes an Antalya an  tae Cyprus. Kastelorizo is pairt o the Rhodes regional unit.

The meanin o its current offeecial name **Megisti** (Μεγίστη) is "biggest" or "greatest", but at anerlie  in aurie, it is the smawest o the Dodecanese. The name, housomeivver, refers tae the fact that it is the lairgest o the sma airchipelago.

## Name an Etymology
The island's offeecial name, Megisti (Μέγιστη), is rarely uised in Greek, the traditional name Kastelorizo (Καστελόριζο) bein common. Thare are several hypotheses aboot the oreegin o the name Kastelorizo, which is thocht tae date frae Byzantine era. Thare is wide consensus that "Kastello" is derivit frae the Laitin wird "castellum", meanin "castle", as this wird (in the Greek form), wis uised frequently bi Byzantine Greeks. Thare is some argument on the seicont pairt o the name. The arguments are centred on the follaein possible oreegins o the wird 'rizo':
*1) 'rizo', bein derivit frae the Italian wird "rosso" meanin "red", aither frae the reddish colour o the rocks o the island, or frae the reddish colour o the castle at sunset, or frae the colour o the coat o airms o the Great Master o the Knichts o Rhodes, Juan Fernandez de Heredia, which stuid abuin the gate o the castle; thir arguments are widely discreditit as the rocks on the island dae no contain ony reid pigment an the name Kastellorizo, pre dates the arrival o the Knichts; or
* 2) 'rizo', bein a corruption o the wird "Rhoge", ane o the auncient appellations o the nearbi island o Rho.  If this is correct, the island's modren name is actually an amalgam o the separate island names 'Castello' an 'Rhoge'; or
* 3) 'rizo', bein the actual Greek wird 'rizon' maintained throughoot the centuries, meanin "ruit", as researched bi Greek Historian I.M. Hatzifotis (1996), tae signify the "tree ruits" o the fuithill whare the castle wis biggit.

It haes gane bi several different names in its history, includin *Kastellorizo* (Greek), *Castellorizo* (Greek name wi Italian spellin), *Castelrosso* (Italian, meanin "Red Castle"), *Chateau Rouge* (French translation o Italian name) an , the umwhile derivin frae the island's offeecial name in Greek, the latter meanin Reid Castle, a translation o the Italian name.

Provinces an territories o Canadae

The **provinces an territories o Canadae** combine tae mak up the warld's seicont-lairgest kintra bi aurie. Thare are ten provinces an three territories. The major difference atween a Canadian province an a territory is that provinces are jurisdictions that receive thair pouer an authority directly frae the Constitution Act, 1867, whareas territories derive thair mandates an pouers frae the federal govrenment. In modren Canadian constitutional theory, the provinces are considered tae be co-sovereign diveesions, an each province haes its awn "Croun" representit bi the lieutenant-govrenor, whareas the territories are no sovereign, but simply pairts o the federal realm, an hae a commissioner.

The ten provinces are Alberta, Breetish Columbie, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland an Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, an Saskatchewan. The three territories are Northwast Territories, Nunavut, an Yukon.

## Location o provinces an territories
Yukon

**Yukon**  is the wastmaist an smawest o Canadae's three federal territories. 

The territory wis creatit frae the rump o the Hudson's Bay Company's North-Wastren Territory in 1898 as "the Yukon".  Receivin ryal assent on 27 Mairch 2002, the federal govrenment modrenisit the *Yukon Act* tae confirm "Yukon", rather than "Yukon Territory", as the current uisage staundart. Though offeecially bilingual (Inglis an French), the Yukon Govrenment recognises First Naitions leids.

At , Yukon's Mount Logan, in Kluane National Park and Reserve, is the heichest muntain in Canadae an the seicont-heichest o North Americae (efter Mount McKinley in the U.S. state o Alaska). The territory's climate is Airctic in the north (north o Old Crow), subairctic in the central region, atween north o Whitehorse an Old Crow, an haes a humid continental climate in the far sooth, sooth o Whitehorse an in auries close tae the B.C. border.

## Etymology
It wis namit efter the Yukon River. The wird *Yukon* means "Great River" in Gwich’in.
