Nunavik, which means "the place where we live" in Inuktitut, is one of Canada's four Inuit regions. Lying north of the 55th parallel in the province of Québec, Nunavik stretches over more than 500,000 km2 of environmental wonders, including rocky tundra patterned with fresh water rivers and lakes, mountains and many offshore islands.

@AdrianThePedestrian I know i'm replying two years later, but no, the number system only goes up to around sixty. It's not suited to expressing large numbers, with anything over the maximum referred to by a term roughly meaning "a whole bunch".
