Lallemand Fjord
The Lallemand Fjord (67°06′S 66°42′W) is a fjord located east of Arrowsmith Peninsula and west of Pernik Peninsula on Loubet Coast on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula, Antarctica. It begins at Sharp Glacier and runs over 48 km roughly south to north, flowing into Crystal Sound near Detaille Island, and entered between Roux Island and Holdfast Point.[1] The fjord was named by Jean-Baptiste Charcot after the French geographer Charles Lallemand.[2]

gollark: Also, yes, the context is quite different so reasons from then may not apply.
gollark: It's also possible that more complex systems may have been impractical before computers came along, although that doesn't apply to, say, approval voting.
