<span>Abraham Ortelius was born Abraham Ortels of German parents in Antwerp on April 14, 1527. He was trained as an engraver, worked as an illuminator of maps, and by 1554 was in the business of selling maps and antiquities. This business involved extensive traveling, which enabled Ortelius to make contacts with the international community of scholars concerned with exploration and cartography and especially with English experts like Richard Hakluyt and John Dee.</span>

Describe the challenges faced by those who wish to change toponyms
matrenka [14]

Answer:

To change a toponym of one place is not so easy to do. This process is usually connected to political changes in different parts of the world.

The toponym change is a sensitive topic, as the name of a place represents the symbol of that place, its identity, and ethnicity. One toponym is related to that place and to people from that place.

Explanation:

Also, when changing the toponym, people should take care of the new name, if it will be in a context of nationalism or internationalism. People connect te name of the place with the location of the place, so it is not easy to adopt a new name, as part of identity is fading.

If the toponym is changing, it has to fit the society, what is the meaning of that new toponym, is it related to the nation, the historical background of the toponym, etc. Those are elements that are influencing the acceptance of a new toponym.
