http://dbpedia.org/resource/Carolana an entity of type: PopulatedPlace

The early province of Carolana was the land forming the southern English colonies, spanning from 31° to 36° north latitude. In 1629, King Charles I of England granted the territory to his attorney general Sir Robert Heath. The original charter claimed the land from Albemarle Sound in present-day North Carolina, to the St. Johns River in the south, just miles below the current Florida-Georgia state line. The region as a whole comprised the modern-day states of Louisiana, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and North and South Carolina. Charles I named the colony for himself, the name Carolana being derived from Carolus, the Latin form of Charles. rdf:langString
