C******tetown 夏洛特顿
C******tetown is a Canadian city. It is both the largest city on and the provincial capital of Prince Edward Island, and the county seat of Queens County. Named after C******te of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, queen consort of the United Kingdom, C******tetown was originally an unincorporated town that incorporated as a city in 1855. It was most famously the site of the C******tetown Conference in 1864, the first gathering of Canadian and Maritime statesmen to debate the proposed Maritime Union and the more persuasive British North American Union, now known as Canadian Confederation. From this, the city adopted as its motto "Cunabula Foederis" – "Birthplace of Confederation".
