I've always wanted to ask this question, but always forget until now.

What does Neapolitan refer to? I'm guessing it literally means "new city/state"? But, from how people had used it, I'm guessing it refers to Italians or Northern Italians? I took Latin, but forgot everything. I know "polis" in Greek means "state" or something like that.

Thanks!
