Proper noun capitalisation: “The Union” or “the Union”? [duplicate]
Solution 1:
The is not capitalized unless you're in a title or at the beginning of a sentence. It is not a proper noun and putting the t in majuscule would not carry any meaning. In fact, with proper nouns that have "the" within them, that the is also not capitalized (take, as a fictitious example, "the United Federation of the Baltic States").
The is a definite article. Glue that lives between other words. Mind you that some languages don't even have definite articles, so, yea.
