Quebec is one of the 13 provinces and territories of Canada, located in the eastern part of the country. It is the largest province by area and the second-most populous, with a population of 8.4 million as of 2019. Quebec is bordered by Ontario to the west, Nunavut and the Northwest Territories to the north, and New Brunswick and the U.S. states of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and New York to the east and south. The Gulf of St. Lawrence and the St. Lawrence River form the province's southern and eastern boundaries, respectively.
The geography of Quebec is highly varied, with the Appalachian Mountains in the southeast, the Canadian Shield covering much of the central region, and the Laurentian Mountains in the north. The province also contains over 90,000 lakes and rivers. The modern history of Quebec began with the arrival of French settlers in the 17th century, and the region was incorporated into the British Empire in 1763. In 1867, Quebec became one of the founding provinces of the Canadian Confederation.
Quebec has a unique culture, with a French-speaking majority and a distinct history and identity. The province has a long tradition of political autonomy and is home to a variety of cultural and linguistic minorities. Quebec has played an important role in Canadian history, from its role in the French and Indian War to its role in the development of the Canadian Constitution. In the 20th century, Quebec was the site of the Quiet Revolution, a period of social and political reform that saw the province become more independent and progressive. Today, Quebec is a vibrant and diverse province, with a strong economy and a vibrant cultural life.
