Deutschland is a fairly new word. Before that there were a multitude of germanic tribes and those have made their way into the language of our neighbours as the name of the country

Germanen, Allemannen, Sachsen to name a few.

Deutsch, Tysk, Tedesco... come from the Latin "theudo" - "das Volk/the people"
