Province in Canada is a loose analogy for state in the US, and obviously would create great confusion if the same word was used in two vastly different geographical classifications. As late as 1914, the terminology used by an AAG publication used the term "natural region" as the basic denomination of physiography.
The term "provinces" (Portuguese: províncias) has been used throughout history to identify regions of continental Portugal.
