But it's incorrect.

It's like having the country be France but calling it Germany.

You could call it Kaap?

It's not illogical. South Africa was uncreative from the beginning. Just name it after Cecil Rhodes, after call he did stuff in SA. I'm atleast 95% sure.

Not really. USSA doesn't have a world revolutionary ideology, only wanting freedom within our hemisphere. We have good relations with the Germans. I doubt the Germans would go and just forget the past couple decades of Anglo-Germanic hostilities just to help you attack a friendly nation.

And? France was named after the Franks, a confederation of Germanic tribes that invaded it from Germany. Doesn't mean you could call France 'Germania' or Germany 'Frankia'.

Well, "Boer" would work if it had remained a pre-industrial state, but so long as it includes a single proper city it might be inappropriate.

Attacking the USSA really wouldn't be worth it. I'm sure a surprise attack on both coasts (Anglo-Japanese alliance) would meet with initial success, but it'd just turn into a drawn out struggle that would sap away at our strength.

Upon reading up on it Cecil Rhodes was pivotal to South Africa developing as a nation. It would make sense to name it after him.

I think that that might piss off the largely British-descended province of Natal... I mean IOTL they were pissed off enough that SA became a republic, let alone that now it's named after the group which they most likely despise.

1. See above.
2. It'd be kinda fucking confusing to have two places called Rhodesia dontcha think?
3. You could also call it Hertzogia because Hertzog founded the Nationalist party, but that doesn't exactly make sense now does it?
