"Liberia" in Latin means what?

Answer by  serendip (408)

Liber or libertas is the Latin word for freedom. The name of the African country Liberia is derived from these words.

Answer by  Phil97 (569)

Liberia, although not a noun found in Classical Latin, would be an noun coming from the adjective liber, libera, liberum, free, and the suffix -ia, which denotes a place name. Therefore, it is a place of freedom. The -ia could come from -ium; if so, it would be plural and mean places of freedom.
