The Pacific Ocean is known for its terrible storms.Yes, on the day when the Spanish explorer ,Balboa ,first saw it ,the ocean was quiet in the bright sunlight ,and so he called it the Pacific which means peaceful."

"From the names of places we are often able to tell who the people in the past were.There are lots of towns and cities whose names end in -pol.We can be sure, even without reading history books, that the Greeks settled in certain places during ancient times and gave them their names with -polis which means city in Greek."

"There are also lots of places that have taken their names from famous people, such as Saratov, Washington, etc. The process of name-giving is not just a thing of the past.
