Etymology
The English word Zitru derives from the Esperian Centrium, which was adopted to reflect the country's position in central Zurope. Originally pronounced with a soft c sound (sen-tri-um), it eventually came to be pronounced with a z sound (zen-tri-um). The Zitran term Kalteland derives from the Surenic Kaltaïn, which means "land of the people". The word kalte carried over from Surenic into Old Zitran where it became Kalteland.
