Nagaland is a state in northeastern India, and it has retained this name since its formation. It was officially established as a state on December 1, 1963. Prior to becoming a state, the region was part of the larger Naga Hills district of Assam, and there were various colonial-era administrative designations. There hasn't been a widely recognized "former name" for Nagaland as a state, but the Naga tribes and communities within the region have their own names and identities that predate colonial and post-colonial designations. If you are looking for specific historical names or terms used in different contexts, please provide more details.
