We shall name it of course after our beloved queen.

Yes, of course. Sorry.

Let it pass and hail to this glorious land, Virginia!

Er...What? Who's Virginia?

The Queen of England, you dog!

Oh, right. Except...I don't know how to put this. She's not called Virginia, but Elizabeth.

I'm well aware of that, but she is, I trust you will agree, a virgin.

Er... Yeah, as far as I know. I mean, I'm sure she is.

But do we want to name a country after that fact?
