The Tasmanian town of Bagdad was named from the classic literary work 'Arabian Nights' by explorer Hugh Germain. The well-educated Germain named several Tasmanian locations from this book and from the Bible, both of which he carried with him wherever he went. Lake Tiberius and the township of Jericho are two such locations, just north of Bagdad.
