"Newfoundland and Labrador" is a province of Canada. The province consists of the island of Newfoundland and the mainland Labrador, on Canada's Atlantic coast. On entry into Canada in 1949, the entire province was known as Newfoundland, but in 2001, the official name changed to "Newfoundland and Labrador." The province has a long border on the mainland with Quebec on the Labrador peninsula.
While the name "Newfoundland" is derived from English as "New Found Land", Labrador is named after Portuguese explorer Joao Fernandes Lavrador. People from Newfoundland are called "Newfoundlanders" (and at times "Newfies", though this is often seen as a derogatory) while people from Labrador are called "Labradorians."
Remnants and artifacts of oldest known settlement anywhere in The Americas built by Europeans are located at L'Anse aux Meadows. It was founded circa 1000 A.D. by Leif Ericson's Vikings.
Newfoundland, the island, is the world's 16th largest island. The provincial capital, St. John's, is found on the southeastern tip of the island. Cape Spear, just south of the capital, is Canada's easternmost point. St. John's is considered to be the oldest city in English speaking North America. The largest town in Labrador is "Happy Valley-Goose Bay," located in the central portion of the land.
Newfoundland is home to two national parks. Gros Morne National Park is located on the west coast of Newfoundland, possessing complex geology and remarkable scenery. Terra Nova National Park, on the island's east side, preserves the rugged geography of the Bonavista Bay region. ( )
