There were nine teams that were in the CFL at the beginning of the leagues formation.
Yes. In the 1990s the governors of the CFL thought they could expand the league into the United States. A number of new teams were created, most of which quickly folded. Only the Baltimore team did well, winning the Grey Cup in 1995. However, the next year the Baltimore team was moved to Montreal and that was the end of American teams in the CFL.
The teams that share a name between the NFL and CFL are the Detroit Lions of the NFL and the British Columbian Lions of the CFL.

The two teams that come from Alberta are the Calgary Stampeders and the Edmonton Eskimos.
There are two divisions, East and West ex. if the fourth place team in the east finishes with more points than the third place team in the west, they get to take their playoff spot thus, they would compete for the CFL Western Division Championship and it becomes possible that there are two eastern teams in the Grey Cup game.

CFL
The Canadian Football League has eight teams. A ninth franchise has been awarded to Ottawa, but the team has not been created yet.
As of 2013, all eight CFL teams have at least one Grey Cup victory to their credit. As of 2014 there are nine teams: the new Ottawa Redblacks have no Grey Cup wins unless you count the wins by the Ottawa Rough Riders.
That depends on what sport. In sports such as baseball, yes. Also, the teams can be named after countries, or provinces/states, like in the CFL.
