Yunanistan sounds made up

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

Yeah, every word is made up. Looks like this one is made up "from lonia, the ancient region (western Asia Minor) occupied by the lonian people" as it says in the graphic as well as the suffix "stan", which you probably know from some other countries and "is Persian and Urdu for “place of” or “where one stands”" according to dictionary.com.
