I'm unreasonably upset you added a "u" to iqeland.
?IDELAND: Where people go to bitch about visual studio.
Also they have very dated hard drives.
In german the letters are even closer.
Irland -> Island
Only one letter further.
In Greek as well.
Also in Slovene.
Also Italian
Also in Icelandic!
In Ireland it's Éire, while Iceland is An Íoslainn, so it doesn't really work 😕
Not in Dutch however. There it's IJsland and Ierland. You'll have to go through several more character shufflings to make it.

Ooh, nice! Thanks for the link
A song of ice and ire
GitHub's Copilot suggestions when I'm coding:
Where did that U come from
I was gonna complain about the same thing, whole image is ruined 
trolling is a art
I wanted to pedantically correct you about the a / an.. but then realised you got me.
Let's also go the other way:
Ibeland
If you go east enough eventually you hit Ikealand.
Iaeland
We did it Lemmy!
This made me laugh wayyyy harder than it should have

By a continuation of this logic Izeland mislabeled on my map as "Spain"
Onward, men! Full sails to the horizon! On my oath, we'll make it to Ikeland by morning!
Oh, there will be Ikes as far as the eye can see, I tell you! Tall Ikes, short Ikes, God-fearing Ikes! Our coffers will overflow with the abundance of Ikes!
You who would doubt me, who would claim the impossibility of such a paradise, you cowards who hide from ambition and surround yourselves with the petty offerings of Steve Island or David Cove, why you would not know how to handle the Ikes of Ikeland!
But I am a man of greater mettle, and I will know this new land.
Raise the anchor. The Ikes await.
I like Ike.
