    • @donaldpolson5450
      @donaldpolson5450 3 месяца назад

      The original Caribbean name was Camerhogne. Columbus when he sighted the island called it Concepcion. He never called it Granada but it is true he remarked its topology reminded him of Granada. The name Granada first appeared on Spanish maps many years later. When the French over a century later invaded they renamed it La Grenade. The British who took over a century after that anglicised it to Grenada
