The East coast of the United States is littered with places named in honor of European royals. But the monarchical monikers don’t stop there, 2 major midwestern cities bare the names of French Kings, Texas once bore the epithet of a Spanish monarch, and even California was named for a mythic black warrior Queen. Let’s take a tour of the US and learn when and how these states and major cities were named and a bit about the person whose moniker they bare.
Virginia named for Queen Elizabeth I
Jamestown, VA named for James I of England & VI of Scotland
Maryland named for Queen Henrietta Maria
North & South Carolina named for King Charles I of England
