Anglocentrism?

[edit]

The article claims: "it was around Suintila's time that a secondary form of the word Hispania was growing in usage: Spania, from which the modern name of Spain originated". How does that work since the "modern form" in Spaniard is "España" and so as more to do with the classical form "Hispania" than with the shortened "Spania". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.129.137.53 (talk) 00:33, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
