Forgive my ignorance, but what is the significance of these names?

I was saying blasphemy to the round earth post. I will think about a suggestion.

Ah, well I see no blasphemy in the honest finding that the planet is spherical.

I suggest our continent be named "Victoria" after the "Grandmother of Longueville". Plus it doesn't sound A-rab.

Ahhh, nevermind then. They are biblical references to empires that will descend upon Jerusalem in the end times.

Hmm, Victoria for a city sounds nice, but for a country? I think not. Victorium would sound better for such an eminsce space and the demeaner it holds.

The planet would not truly be spherical. It would be a close approximation of an oblate spheroid.

Yes, but not all peoples understand things to such a degree. So it is kuch simpler to say spherical, but we do agree.

As long as, when cited, it be noted that it is the derivative of Victoria - the Grandmother of the House of Longueville. It is only right.

GTCJ won't agree to name a whole continent for one country, and one person of the country to be more candid.

I think my continent would be called "Scriabin", after the Russian Composer.

I'll have to run it by Villeron first...

I would like to name the islands that Itius occupies the "Itiusian Islands". His choice, though.
That would sound good to me.

No, Pope Pius IX was the greatest Pope ever, just after St. Peter. Plus there were three Borgia popes, not just Alexander VI.

I'm aware there were 3 Borgia Popes (Calixtus III AND Innocent X).

Sounds like Mordor and Voldemort.

I want Victorium, and I am sure the Ruler of Royalist Albion would concur. Methinks he's asleep at the moment though.
