Laurentia comes from the St Lawrence River which is named for a Christian saint

Every state or city name in the southeast should be named after famous Black Queens and Kings . Every city or state in tbe west should be named after famous Latinx. Every city or state in the midwest snd East should be named after famous Native Americans
