Constantinople, once called Byzantium, which, as Istanbul, is still an important world city, even though it is no longer the capital of modern-day Turkey.

[unbelievably, someone on the tv programme I am watching just talked about something happening in Copenhagen!]

Darwin, the capital of the Australia state of Northern Territory.

There, shining in the sunrise, larger than they had seen him before, shaking his mane (for it had apparently grown again) stood Aslan himself.

Hastings, a town on the south coast of England, famous for a nearby battle (commemorated in the naming of the actual town, Battle!) in 1066, and also famous for smugglers.

Iberia, a name of the entire modern Iberian peninsula, containing both Spain & Portugal, as well as an old Hellenic kingdom located in Georgia, in the Caucasus mountains, along with Colchis of the Golden Fleece.

Fayetteville, GA, USA.

I think your Georgian town is called after Marie-Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette , a Revolutionary hero in USA though loyal to the autocratic Louis XVI in France, but also believed having a Constitutional Monarchy such as the system then in use by his enemy, in USA, at any rate, Great Britain /:) . He had a chequered reputation in France & Austria during & after the French revolution, dying as late as 1834. :-o
