TERRITORY
A territory is an administrative division, usually an area
that is under the jurisdiction of a state. In most countries,
a territory is an organized land controlled division of an
area that is controlled by a country but is not formally
developed into, or incorporated into, a political unit of the
country that is of equal status to other political units that
may often be referred to by words such as "provinces" or
"states".
TERRITORY
late Middle English: from Latin territorium,
from terra ‘land’. The word originally denoted
the district surrounding and under the
jurisdiction of a town or city, specifically a
Roman or provincial city.
Types of territory
Capital territory
• A capital territory or federal capital territory is usually a specially

designated territory where a country's seat of government is
located. As such, in the federal model of government, no one
state or territory takes pre-eminence because the capital lies
within its borders. A capital territory can be one specific form of
federal district.
• In Australia, the capital Canberra lies within the Australian Capital
Territory and was originally called the FCT.
• The National Capital Territory is where New Delhi, the capital of
India, is located.
• Nigeria has its capital Abuja in the Federal Capital Territory.
• In Pakistan, the capital city Islamabad lies within the Islamabad
Capital Territory.
Dependent territory
• Dependent territory is a designation for a territory that is not an

independent sovereign state, yet remains politically outside the
governing state's integral area.[6] Presently, all dependent
territories are either overseas territories or non-sovereign
associated states. Only four countries currently possess dependent
territories: the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Norway and the
United States.
Examples include:
• The 14 British Overseas Territories are dependent territories of the
United Kingdom with varying degrees of self-governance.
• Bouvet Island, Peter I Island and Queen Maud Land are uninhabited
dependent territories of Norway.
• The three Crown dependencies are associated states of the United
Kingdom.
• Cook Islands and Niue are associated states of New Zealand.
Federal territory
• A federal territory is an area within the direct and

usually exclusive jurisdiction of the central or
national government within a federation.
Federal territories include:

• Federal Capital Territory (Nigeria)
• Federal Territory (Malaysia)
Overseas territory
-is a broad designation for a territorial entity that is
separated from the country that governs it by an
ocean. An overseas territory may be either a
constituent part of the governing state or a
dependent territory.
Examples include:
• Overseas France includes the five overseas

collectivities of France, which are broadly
autonomous territories, as well as overseas
territories, overseas regions, and overseas
departments.
• Greenland and the Faroe Islands are constituent
parts of the Kingdom of Denmark which are
internally self-governing.
• The 14 British Overseas Territories are dependent
territories of the United Kingdom with varying
degrees of self-governance.
• American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana
Islands, Puerto Rico and US Virgin Islands are
dependent territories of the government of the
United States with varying local autonomy.
• Bouvet Island, Peter I Island and Queen Maud
Land are uninhabited dependent territories of
Norway.
• Claimed parts of Antarctica.
