Albion is the most ancient known name of Great Britain. Today, it is used romantically to refer to the United Kingdom, especially England and occasionally Scotland. It is the basis of the Celtic language name for Scotland. Babyshambles, an English indie rock band established in London, most likely is referring to England in "Down in Albion".

Why has Amerigo Vespucci name become more famous than Columbus?
http://books.Google.com/books?id=j7THdpoazVIC&pg=PA1&dq=americus+Vespucci&ei=1IvzSLjYMZj4MJ-SldgI#PPA1,M1 This link refers to a Harper & Brothers Publishers, February 1907 book authored by Frederick Albion Ober. The book's given explanation simply states that "Amerigo" would be the Italian name, and "Americus" is the Latinized version of the same name. I have also seen another account of the changed name attributed to being his grandfather's name. My early school recollection of 40 years ago is how fortunate we are to be known for his "first" name as opposed to the family name. Imagine, North and South Vespucci, or the Vespuccian continent........The United States of Vespucci? It could have been! poor old Robert
What city has the same longitude as rome?
Well, first of all, since you juxtaposed it with "in the US", I'm going to assume thatyou're not talking about any of the Romes in Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Mississippi,New York, Ohio, or Pennsylvania. And even though you didn't specify which oneoutside the US you mean, instead of agonizing over it, I'll just take the easy wayand reference the search to the one in Italy.But my work is still not ready to begin. Rome is a big place, and you didn't mentionwhat point in Rome you want to use as the reference latitude. Again, I'll take theeasy way, and use 41.8902 north ... the latitude of the center of the 'playing' fieldin the Colosseum.Walking across North America at that latitude, we cross through the corporate limits of-- Smith River, California-- Garden City, Utah-- Medicine Bow, Wyoming-- Scottsbluff & Bartlett, Nebraska-- Iowa: Manilla, Slater, Huxley, Maxwell, Belle Plaine, Watkins, Stanwood, Clarence-- Illinois: Fulton, Rochelle, DeKalb, Elburn, Geneva, Villa Park, Berkeley, Chicago-- Michigan: Sawyer, Adrian, Deerfield, Petersburg, Monroe,-- Ohio: Ashtabula, Kingville, Albion, Edinboro, Union City, Warren-- Pennsylvania: Rome ! , New Milford-- Sundown, New York-- New Hartford, & Windsor Locks, Connecticut-- Greenville, & Pawtucket, Rhode Island-- Taunton, Midleboro, & Wellfleet Massachusetts
