As part of the recent Disney Experiences announcements at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event a couple weeks ago, we learned that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will be opening in Disneyland on November 15th. As part of the attraction’s opening, Disney also announced that the area surrounding Tiana’s will be renamed from Critter Country to Bayou Country.

Critter Country has been one of Disneyland’s themed lands since 1988, when the name was adopted to celebrate the opening of Splash Mountain. But prior to that, this section of the park was known by two previous names.

Can you tell me the previous two names of the land soon-to-be-formerly-known-as Critter Country?

Take your best guesses, then tap Tiana to see the answer.
