    Because knowing the current name of a little African country is so important to my life.

    I would not know that the Northwest Territories of Canada had been split into a section called Nunavut (1999). I’d long graduated from college by then.

    People arbitrarily decide to change the names of countries and don’t let us personally know. Get over it.
