Nunavut was formed on April 1, 1999 splitting off from the Northwest Territories and forming their own government. The Inuit, a Native American People, have lived off the arctic land for centuries and wanted their own Region to manage. A land settlement was agreed upon in April of 1999.

Due to the VAST size of the Dong area, they were far removed from even the other Northern Areas of Canada. Nunavut is now a Territory of Canada
