3. Why is Rhode Island called Rhode Island, it’s clearly not an island.

“The explorer Giovanni da Verrazzano, in 1524 noted the presence of an island near the mouth of Narragansett Bay, which he likened to the Ottoman island of Rhodes” OR “A second theory concerns the fact that Adriaen Block, during his expeditions in the 1610s, passed by Aquidneck, described in a 1625 account of his travels as “an island of reddish appearance” (in 17th-century Dutch, “een rodlich Eylande”).”
