'''Saltèrne—Détroit''' ([[wikipedia:French language|French]]: [[wikipedia:International Phonetic Alphabet|<nowiki>[sal.tɛʁn de.tʁwa]</nowiki>]]) is a [[administrative divisions of Ainin|province]] of [[Ainin]]. With a geographic extent largely overlapping with the [[Saltèrne Valley]] and the basin of the [[Amis River]], the province is bounded to the west and south by the [[Saltèrne Mountains]], to the east by the [[Strait of Tourres]] and to the north by [[Ponant]]. It also shares maritime borders with [[Isle-Royale]] and land borders with [[Côte-Dorée]], [[Radisson―Pays-de-l'Est]] and [[Montagnes]], although there are no road connections to the last.

The province was created as part of the [[provincial reorganisation of 1971]], when the province of [[Saltèrne]] was divided, with its western half being joined to parts of southern [[Linaque]] to form [[Montagnes]], and the eastern half joining the extant province of [[Détroit]] to form Saltèrne—Détroit. The province's hyphenated name owes to its origin as the merger of these two historic provinces. Covering an approximate 15% of the country's landmass, Saltèrne—Détroit is the largest province in Ainin by land area and has immense ecological and climatological diversity, ranging from {{wp|tropical rainforest|tropical rainforests}} to alpine {{wp|permafrost}}.

Its capital and largest city is [[Amis]], which is also its largest metropolitan area. Other major cities include [[Del]], a suburb of [[Huimont]] that is home to [[Olivier Lapointe Bridge|Esquarium's longest transoceanic bridge]] and [[Lac-Saint-Sauveur]], the administrative seat of the former Saltèrne province.
