Cartographic of the Day: This is a map of the world in which the names of the countries have been allegedly replaced with the origins of said names (embiggen).

I say “allegedly,” because according to the comments on Reddit, some of these etymologies might be slightly south of correct (e.g., “Argentina doesn’t mean Silver, rather ‘Of the silver’”), so do yourself a favor and swing by Wikipedia to confirm before you go on Jeopardy.
