China and Iran
Cathay is what today we call China. Persia is what we now call Iran. One thing you must keep in mind; and it is the fact that former Cathay is today's China doesn't mean that the territory is exactly the same as today. Cathay was a tad smaller than today's China. About Iran, today it is smaller than Persia was. Hope this helps.
The current name for Persia is Iran, which officially adopted this name in 1935. Cathay, historically referring to northern China, is now commonly known as China. These names reflect the modern identities and political entities of their respective regions.
