The reason why these areas in Africa, Hong Kong, and Australia, bear the name, "Victoria" is to honor the British Queen at a time when Great Britain ruled those areas.

<h3>Why are there several places named "Victoria"?</h3>

Queen Victoria was one of the longest-serving monarchs in British History and to commemorate her, there were several places named after her by the British.

The British did this in places where they ruled over such as Hong Kong, Zimbabwe (Lake Victoria) and Australia.
