Alberta is named after which historical figure?

A Canadian Prime Minister
A British Monarch
Princess Louise Caroline Alberta
A French Explorer

The correct answer is: Princess Louise Caroline Alberta

Alberta is named after Princess Louise Caroline Alberta, daughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert of England, who was vice-regal consort to the fourth Governor General of Canada. Option A is incorrect because while some Canadian Prime Ministers have had a strong influence on the province of Alberta, none are the historical figure for which it is named after. Similarly, option B is incorrect as while many British Monarchs have had influence on the region, it was not named after any of them. Option D is incorrect because while French explorers did travel through the region, none were significant enough in Alberta's history to have the province named after them.
