for example, we call other countries Germany, Italy, and Japan...why don't we call them Deutschland, Italia, and Nippon?

It is pretty weird that we keep our own language instead of adapting to theirs to say their name correctly. I'm not sure why? lol

it fairly is not which you at the instant are not "allowed" as you place it, through fact particular, white human beings are allowed to call black people who too. rather, i think of neither white nor black human beings might desire to apply the 'n' word, through fact its racist. we are genuinely everybody right here, so why could we placed a word like that upon a team a team of people in simple terms through fact of their race? i know how human beings make jokes, approximately everybody of any particular epidermis colour, faith, physique form, etc., yet utilising the 'n' word is going extra than a stupid joke through real which potential it has with it. so why do human beings sense the might desire to call themselves and their friends that? It tell relies upon on their person reasoning, yet common, its hateful.

Because of the differences in the languages...
For people from one country can be very difficult to pronounce the name of the other one..
Do you know the name of Croatia?! It is Hrvatska. Now can you pronounce it!?
I don't even have to mention the names of some asian and/or african countries...

Probably because it's easier for us to centralize everything instead of adapting to others.
Americans in particular like things in neat and similar packages (like foreign countries with English-sounding names)

You now, I don't know. I guess it's just the way we were taught in school.
