This isn't a rule. Some bureaucrat was mistaken.

The same thing happened to another girl a couple weeks ago.

But it is indicitive of the Anglo-Saxon propensity for bootlicking. /Celtposting

The French do their arguably dumber "you can't call that thing you made what I call it even though it's the same recipe, because it wasn't grown where my ancient relatives made it," though. Also France's general xenophobia and owning a bona fide colony way later than the Anglos lol

You're talking about AOP (Appelation d'Origine Protégée / Protected Origin Naming). It makes senses because protected names are place names. You can't call any sparkling wine "champagne". It has to come from Champagne. However, you can call your raw milk cheese "faisselle" even if it wasn't made in Rians, as faisselle isn't a place.
