Etymology
Caucasia comes from the mountain name Caucasus, the high range between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, and you also see the same root in Caucasian. Think of the tall, often snow-covered peaks and the many different peoples who live there — that image helps explain why Caucasia means the diverse lands and cultures around those mountains, known for their natural resources and oil.
