Inuit of Inuit Nunangat
Inuit
Inuit Nunangat is the Inuit homeland in Canada. Its four regions are Nunavik, Nunatsiavut, Nunavut and the Inuvialuit Settlement Region, each with distinct institutions. The Iqaluit marker provides public-institution orientation, not a capital for every Inuit community.
Homelands, governance, and cultural continuity
Historical homelands and regional networks
Inuit Nunangat encompasses Arctic lands, coasts, waters, and sea ice across northern Canada. The Iqaluit point orients readers to a public center and does not draw the homeland or any agreement boundary.
Governance and political organization
Inuit governance includes distinct land-claim organizations, regional public governments, community authorities, and national representation through Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami. No single institution replaces the mandates of the four regions.
Contemporary institutions and cultural continuity
Inuit communities sustain regional governments, education, health, land stewardship, arts, and language work across Inuit Nunangat and in southern cities. Residence outside the homeland does not determine identity or organizational membership.
The regions have distinct agreements and institutions; the framework does not make them one government.
The marker is not a capital for all Inuit and shows no territorial boundary.
Names and classifications vary across communities and institutions.

语言家庭: Eskaleut; official and working colonial languages vary by region
Inuit Nunangat is a homeland concept that includes water and ice, not merely a terrestrial region.
Inuktut contains regional language varieties; labeling all speech as one uniform dialect would erase important distinctions.
Land-claim agreements and public governments differ by region and should be described by their own mandates.
Living peoples decide what knowledge is public. The absence of a practice, place, or account from this concise profile is not evidence that it is absent from the community.
