The lands of the Canaanites, Hittites, Perizites, Girgashites, Amorites, Moabites,

Edomites, and others, in early Biblical times, now comprise parts of Israel, Egypt,

Lebanon, Jordan, and Syria.

Additional Answer:

Parts of Edom are in Turkey today as well as Jordan. Some have followed the Hittites into the Ukrainian valley becoming the Prussians though the Medes probably settled there. This area between the 2 seas saw many peoples in the migrations out of the Middle East in early BC/AD. Egypt was always a separate nation/peoples and not part of Canaan.

Answer:

Neither of the above answers addresses the original question. The question concerned the land named Canaan, not the Canaanites.

The land of Canaan is roughly the same as present-day Israel. Though the borders were not identical, there was a lot of overlap.
