Google maps show Belfast's Broadway. It is in a neighborhood with street names such as "Nubia", "Soudan" and "Kitchener". So can we assume that streets in that area were named (or re-named) within say 20 or so years after the victories of Kitchener in the Sudan over the Mahdi's successors? ( Since more than about 20 or so years after an event, new victories might be used to name streets.) As I recall the victories were in the early 1890s.
