The real question is, of which states was the Northern Territory once a part?
From 1825 to 1863, the Northern Territory was part of New South Wales, when the entire eastern half of the continent was called New South Wales.
From 1863 to 1911 the Northern Territory was part of South Australia, following the successful 1862 expedition of John McDouall Stuart to find an overland route through the desert from Adelaide (capital of South Australia) to the north. His route was used for the route of the Overland Telegraph line.
On 1 January 1911, the Northern Territory was separated from South Australia and transferred to Commonwealth control.

When did the Northern Territory and Canberra become a state?
Neither Canberra nor the Northern Territory are states. Canberra is the capital city of Australia, and lies within the Australian Capital Territory, which was created in 1911 purely for the purpose of housing the national capital. The competition to design Australia's new capital city, Canberra, was won in 1911 by Walter Burley Griffin. The Northern Territory is just that - a territory. From 1825 to 1863, the Northern Territory was part of New South Wales, and from 1863 to 1911 it was part of South Australia. On 1 January 1911, the Northern Territory was separated from South Australia and transferred to Commonwealth control. The Northern Territory or the ACT could, some time in the future, become one of Australia's states. Australia's constitution of 1901 did (and does) allow for the admission of new states into Australia. Section 121 of the constitution states that all that is required for a new state is for the Federal Parliament to agree. This even means that the Parliament could admit the Northern Territory or the ACT as a state whether or not the residents agreed to it.

What is the Northern Territory?
The Northern Territory is a territory on the Australian continent, one of two mainland Australian territories, and not a state. At Federation, the Northern Territory did not yet exist. From 1825 to 1863, the Northern Territory was part of New South Wales, and from 1863 to 1911 it was part of South Australia. This resulted from the successful 1862 expedition of John McDouall Stuart to find an overland route through the desert from Adelaide to the north. On 1 January 1911, the Northern Territory was separated from South Australia and transferred to Commonwealth control. The Northern Territory does not have the full rights that a state has, but the territory is administered by the Commonwealth delegating powers to the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly. States can govern their area in their own constitutional right. So, it is called a territory because it is an area of Australia controlled by Australia and is not an actual state.
