Why is it called Golden Horde?
The name Golden Horde originates from a Mongolian-led army of mostly Turkic tribes that swept over eastern Europe in the 13th century. It is possibly named after a golden tent used by their commander, and this horde established a westernmost Mongol khanate that ruled most of European Russia until its defeat in the 15th century.

Why is it called merino?
The term 'merino' originates from either the Arabic word 'Merini,' referring to a Northwest African sheep-farming family or tribe whose sheep were introduced to Spain for improving local breeds, or from the medieval Latin 'maiorinus,' possibly influenced by 'maior' meaning 'greater,' denoting the size of the animal or the Spanish derivative 'merino' for a ranch overseer or judicial officer. Since the early 19th century, the word has been used to describe the Merino sheep and its wool.
