WHAT DOES FEDERAL TERRITORY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Federal territory

A federal territory is an area ruled directly by any central government within a federation. The territories are areas in a federation which are not federated states. The federated states are the parts making up the federation itself and sharing the sovereignty with the federal government, while a territory is in no way sovereign. Unlike a federal district, the territory usually has some degree of self-rule, but the terms are used somewhat differently in different federations.
