Egypt was divided into two sections, upper and lower Egypt. Though the Egyptians did not draw precise border, sources make it apparent that Lower Egypt was the Nile Delta region of the north. This area of the Nile emptied into the Mediterranean Sea.
The Act of Union, enacted in 1840, merged the Province of Upper Canada and Lower Canada into the Province of Canada, which was divided into Canada East (formerly Lower Canada) and Canada West (formerly Upper Canada). This unification aimed to create a more stable and efficient government, addressing issues of governance and representation that had plagued the individual colonies. The Act also facilitated economic cooperation and infrastructure development, but it sparked tensions between English and French-speaking populations, particularly in Canada East. Overall, it laid the groundwork for future confederation discussions among the North American colonies.
Canada was confederated in 1867, but the original British colonies of Upper and Lower Canada were established in 1791.

Ontario has had several former names throughout its history. Initially, it was part of the French territory known as New France, referred to as "Canada" in the early 17th century. Following British control, it was known as the Province of Quebec until 1791, when it was divided into Upper Canada and Lower Canada. In 1841, Upper Canada was renamed the Province of Canada, and it officially became Ontario in 1867 when Canada became a confederation.

Hamilton is 290 feet [88.39 m] above sea level.Actually Hamilton is, somewhat uniquely, divided into 2 sections because of our escarpment running the length of the city, dividing it into lower and upper sections. The lower part of Hamilton is approx. 246 ft above sea level, and the higher is approx. 777 ft above sea level. I'm currently writing this from the higher (we call it the 'mountain').
It's not based on the location on a map. It is more geographical. The "lower Canada region" is more upriver on the St Lawrence. The higher up the river, the "lower" you are. Upper Canada or "Ontario" is located at the tip of the river. Settlers arrived through the St Lawrence and believed the entrance to the river was lower, and the end of the river was higher. ============================================================ "Upper Canada" and "Lower Canada" were named because of their relative elevations and their relative locations on the St Lawrence watershed. Upper Canada was upstream, and at a higher elevation; Lower Canada was downstream, and at a lower elevation.
