The Mississippi River. Memphis, Cairo, Luxor, etc. they’re all named that way to allude to the Nile. Like when the colonists would come over, name a city Plymouth or Sussex or Boston, then go back to England and go “See! The Indians want us there! They named their cities after ours! A new life awaits you in the Off-world colonies!”
