Nova Scotia means New Scotlandin Latin. The Scotland settlers lived here and then named it New Scotland. They settled here because the war was happening and they would have to move. It wasn't home but, it was their new home. Their New Scotland. Their Nova Scotia. That is the reason for my provinces name :P
