toponyms

On the toponyms part though, there's the official registry of toponyms that is openly accessible but not open-data.

And poetic names abound, from archeological sites like this, to the species names of insects, to toponyms and beyond.

By 1700, wolves had long been extirpated from the current UK, though their old territory is commemorated in the toponyms.

The toponyms that are assumed to come from these two languages are not similar.

For example in the Romanian language, Gothic toponyms have been preserved to this day.

And Chaucer is the Decameron, rewritten in English with English names and toponyms.

This explains the Slavic toponyms and the many Slavic loanwords into Romanian.

And also several toponyms, the most famous probably being Andalucía.

Then the pagan slavs migrated/invaded it in the 650-700, and the Byzantine Empire fought them back (there are still villages in Greece that have Slavic toponyms).

For centuries, Indian textiles had been the most sought-after across Europe and Asia, to the point where even today many modern words for textiles are Indian toponyms.

Aren't some toponyms different from language to language though?

So we have an absurd situation where a non-trivial amount of Spanish toponyms are more accurate in the English Wikipedia than in the Spanish one.

Perhaps because they have decided that it is cheaper for them to comply with the "childish nonsense" of changing toponyms for political reasons than to stand their ground.

The fact that many English-language reports about the war do transliterate "г" as "h" in Ukrainian toponyms doesn't help, but it's as close as one could reasonably get to the real Ukrainian pronunciation.

There are other Russian toponyms that are governed by the same preposition — Cuba, Caucasus, Manhattan, "the West", Middle East, "the East", etc.

One example close to me (I guess everyone has their own) is how the Spanish Wikipedia systematically misspells the name of dozens of Spanish cities and towns, changing the official toponyms for largely invented ones that "sound more Spanish".

Toponyms in Crimea are shown in Russian.
