Usage notes

[edit]
  • The Spanish city have become known primarily by the title. In the case of the numerous placenames originally styled Ciudad Real de NN, most have been restyled or fully renamed following their area's independence. (For example, the former capital of Chiapas in Mexico Ciudad Real de Chiapa is now known as San Cristóbal de las Casas). Even in historical contexts, it is more common to refer to them by the last part of the name (e.g. Chiapa) rather than the first or even the full title.
