Native Names of Countries

Native names of countries often reflect the linguistic, cultural, and historical heritage of their peoples. For example, Japan is called "Nihon" or "Nippon" in Japanese, meaning "origin of the sun." Germany is known as "Deutschland" in German, derived from the old High German word "diutisc," meaning "of the people." Egypt is called "Misr" in Arabic, with roots in the ancient civilization of the region. These native names offer deeper insight into the identities and histories of the countries beyond their Anglicized versions.
