What are the Territories in Australia?

Australia is a federal nation comprising six states and two self-governing territories. The territories, each governed by an administrator appointed by the federal government, are the following:

1. Australian Capital Territory (ACT): The Australian Capital Territory encompasses the national capital city, Canberra, which serves as the seat of the Australian government, hosting Parliament House and significant cultural institutions.

2. Northern Territory (NT): The Northern Territory occupies a vast area in the central and northern regions of Australia. Known for its diverse landscapes, rich indigenous culture, and natural wonder, such as Uluru (Ayers Rock) and Kakadu National Park, the Northern Territory has a history marked by indigenous autonomy and mining industries.
