This thread is for posting any alternate names for any area of the world that you can think of. Make sure to include the place it is renaming and maybe a short description of the place or the name.

Here are mine:
1. Meridia - A beautiful Latin sounding name for the American South (would probably be the equivalent for the CSA as Columbia for the early United States)
2. Pradaria - A nice, if slightly funny, sound naming for the Great Plains of the American Midwest
3. Lusitania - An alternate name for Portugal here to describe the Empire of the United Kingdom of Portugal-Brazil, including territories in Africa and East Asia
4. Oromer - An alternate, French name for Australia
5. Magaria - An alternate name for Hungary that is much more in line with traditional Latin-derived naming conventions and what the Hungarians actually call themselves.
