  3. Corea = Korea by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    From Wikipedia:

    In English, until the end of the 19th century, the name "Corea" was used almost exclusively, with "Korea" only coming into common use at the turn of the 20th century. This has given rise to a widespread ideas that says that the name "Korea" was favored by the Japanese around the turn of the century. Since Japan was after Corea in alphabetical order, Japanese nationalists would have decided to favor the upper-case "C" into a "K", thus changing "Corea" into "Korea" in order to gain alphabetical supremacy. However, "Korea" was also used along with "Corea" in English-language documents very early in very limited amounts. The Japanese-modification theory, while widely in favour among nationalists, is dismissed as an urban legend by most Japanese.
