Atrahasis,
"Detroit" is French for
narrow, or thin,,
Fort Detroit was built by the French, when New France existed,
The river that joins Lake Erie and Lake Huron, would be seen as
"a point of narrowing",
"une place donque la Lac se detroit"
"the place were the Lake narrows", that is the origin of the name,
As far as the "DETROYAT",
that has nothing what-so-ever to do with French,
ask Bernard eh,

That's a good question, I've wondered that myself. I guess first we have to know what "Detroit" means and in what language.
Anyways, everybody come to my site and peruse the galleries, they have Starforce's awesome BC screenies in them.......even I'm impressed with how good the ships look.
