TheStickeen Territories/stɪˈkiːn/, also colloquially rendered asStickeen Territory,Stikine Territory, andStikeen Territory, was aterritory ofBritish North America whose brief existence began July 19, 1862, and concluded July of the following year. The region was split from theNorth-Western Territory in the wake of theStikine Gold Rush. The initial strike attracted large numbers of miners — mostly American — to the region; by detaching the region from the exclusive trade zone of theHudson's Bay Company, British authorities were able to impose tariffs and licences on the speculators. The new territory, named after theStikine River, was under the responsibility of the Governor of theColony of British Columbia,James Douglas, who was appointed "Administrator of the Stickeen Territories" and under British law, within the jurisdiction of theSupreme Court of British Columbia.

The boundaries of the Stickeen Territories were the62nd parallel to the north, the125th meridian to the east, theNass andFinlay Rivers to the south, and the panhandle ofRussian America to the west (only vaguely defined by treaty and disputed until resolved with theAlaska Boundary Settlement of 1903).^[1]

A year later, the Stickeen Territories was dissolved, most of its former land being added to theColony of British Columbia, except for the sector north of the60th parallel, which was returned to theNorth-Western Territory. In 1895, most of this strip was again redistributed, this time to theDistrict of Yukon, as newly constituted during the midst of theKlondike Gold Rush. The remainder of the strip stayed in theNorthwest Territories.
