== Etymology ==
Explorer Giovanni da Verrazzano is credited for originating the designation Acadia on his 16th-century map, where he applied the ancient Greek name "Arcadia" to the entire Atlantic coast north of Virginia. "Arcadia" is derived from the Arcadia region what was formerly Greece on Earth, which had the extended meanings of "refuge" or "idyllic place". Henry IV of [[French Republic|France]] chartered a colony south of the St. Lawrence River between the 40th and 46th parallels in 1603, and he recognized it as La Cadie. Samuel de Champlain fixed its present orthography with the "r" omitted, and cartographer William Francis Ganong has shown its gradual progress northeastwards to its resting place in the Atlantic provinces of Canada. As an alternative theory, some historians suggest that the name is derived from the indigenous Canadian Miꞌkmaq language, in which Cadie means "fertile land."
The name Acadia derives from the Ancient Greek pastoral utopia of Arcadia, which has celebrated in poetry and art since at least the 3rd century BCE.
