== Etymology == | |||
The name of the state, Santiago, has its roots in the imperial naming conventions of Cartadania. The original name, Sancti, was derived from the Latin term "Sancti Iacobu," meaning "saint," which is believed to refer to Saint James, the patron saint of Cartadania. The name Sancti was used to refer to the region of western Verona, which included the area that would later become the state of Santiago. Over time, the name evolved into Santiago, which has been used since the early 17th century to refer to the region. | |||
The name Santiago has since become synonymous with the state and its people, representing the region's rich cultural heritage and historical significance. The state of Santiago is known for its important role in the development of Cartadanian society and its contributions to the nation's growth and prosperity. | |||
