Yesterday's Answer, Today's Question


Yesterday's Answer:




Aurore Dudevant's pen name was George Sand.










Today's Question:




What is today's name for the country once known as Hibernia?




I do not know this one with certainty but colonial coinage marked the name Hibernia was brought to America by Irish settlers so my guess would be that Ireland was once named as such.
