Howdy all,
I’m writing this thread because I need help coming up with alternate names for the continent of Africa. I’m doing an alternate history where there is a nation named Africa, and I don’t want it to share a name with its continent.
Assuming all languages and colonization patterns went the same as OTL, what are some potential plausible names for the continent as a whole?
(Currently I have it as Ilia, a romanization of Yoruba ile, which is what Google Translate said meant “home.” Clearly, this translation has a good potential to be incredibly jank, so this thread is a place to share other names if anyone has any suggestions.)
