After the Mexican War of Independence, the city was renamed Morelia in honor of José María Morelos, who hailed from the city.

Fort-de-France (, , ; gcf, label=Martinican Creole, Fodfwans) is a commune and the capital city of Martinique, an overseas department and region of France located in the Caribbean.
