Countries change their names for reasons such as political shifts, independence, cultural rebranding, or to correct historical inaccuracies. For instance, Myanmar (formerly Burma) changed its name to better reflect ethnic diversity; Eswatini (formerly Swaziland) reverted to its pre-colonial name to emphasize cultural identity; and North Macedonia resolved a long-standing dispute with Greece by altering its name. These changes symbolize national identity, political independence, and cultural heritage, often requiring significant adjustments in international recognition.
