North Sulawesi (Indonesian: Sulawesi Utara) is a province of Indonesia. It is located on the island of Sulawesi, and borders the province of Gorontalo to the west (which was originally a part of North Sulawesi until 2001, when it seceded to become a province of its own). The islands of Sangihe and Talaud form the northernmost part of the province, which border Davao del Sur in the Philippines. The capital and largest city in North Sulawesi is Manado.

Famous quotes containing the word north:
“I know no East or West, North or South, when it comes to my class fighting the battle for justice. If it is my fortune to live to see the industrial chain broken from every workingman’s child in America, and if then there is one black child in Africa in bondage, there shall I go.”
—Mother Jones (1830–1930)
