Why do you say it was wrongly called Dahomey? And maybe you can help me with a question I've wondered about: why was it changed to Benin? Benin was one of the great historical kingdoms of Africa, like Songhai or Ghana (also not in present day Ghana) or what have you, but as far as I know it's not related to the current country of Benin. It was located in present day Nigeria. I suppose maybe the people migrated, or was it more a case of wanting to get rid of the name Dahomey and choosing an inspiring name?
