Iriquona is the traditional native name for the geographic region the country occupies, translating roughly as "wooded hills". For a time, the country was known internationally as "Huconia" due to the nation's historic association with the Hukon League, but by [[1910]] this terminology had been disavowed as the name was largely a [[Coscivian]] {{wp|exonym}}. The Hukon League's name derived from the Treaty of Hukon, then a major village in modern Iriquona. The term was never officially adopted by the people of Iriquona themselves. | Iriquona is the traditional native name for the geographic region the country occupies, translating roughly as "wooded hills".
