Yukon is a territory in northwestern Canada, bordered by Alaska, British Columbia, and the Northwest Territories. Known for its rugged wilderness, the territory played a central role in the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 1890s.
The capital and largest city is Whitehorse, located along the Yukon River. Notable attractions include the SS Klondike National Historic Site and the nearby Miles Canyon. The territory is also famous for its northern lights, wildlife, and extreme seasonal daylight variation.
Yukon has a small population of around 47,000, with a significant Indigenous presence, including First Nations such as the Kwanlin Dün and Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in. Outdoor tourism and mining are key parts of the economy.
The flag of Yukon, officially adopted in 1968 is a green, white, and blue vertical tricolour symbolizing forests, snow, and rivers. At the centre is the Yukon coat of arms which has an Alaskan Malamute dog standing atop a shield with various territorial symbols, above a wreath of fireweed.
