British North America
British North America
referred to the territories of the
British Empire
in mainland
North America
. The term was first used informally in 1783, but it was uncommon before the
Report on the Affairs of British North America
(1839), called the Durham Report. These territories today form modern-day
Canada
and the northwest of the
United States
.
