[edit] Modern meaning of 'Lusitania'
I believe that the term "Lusitania" today usually refers to all the portuguese speaking areas in the world as a collective entity. That is, Portugal, Brasil, Goa, Cabo Verde and several others. Is there any Wikipedia entry which deals with this? Martin Packham —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.143.108.246 (talk • contribs)
- It is true that sometimes Lusitania is used in modern times to mean just Portugal, and is the modern Latin name for the country as can be seen in the Latin Wikipedia article on that country. What you are looking, however, for is Lusophone and Lusitanic. See also Community of Portuguese Language Countries. The Ogre 21:25, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
