    Hero's War

    sounds very nice... good ring to it
    and i don't like the idea of calling a war a method of clensing.

            The Great Cleansing is an awesome name, but I like "war of the wonders", because we took the Pyramids, and we built two (in the greatest city in our empire, Ubergorsk).

              The 600 Years War is the one evoking the 3 campaigns against France, Germany and Persia.

              War of the Wonders is fine, but reminds only the Persia campaign.

              Hero's war is good for any war !

              And the Great Cleansing is ugly ; Apolytonian heroes cannot appear during a cleansing, even a great one !
              Statistical anomaly.

                Great Patriotic. Heck, our anthem is the Soviet one.

                  War of the Wonders .

                  We not only got three wonders through our wars, but it could argue that they allowed us 'other' wonders as well -- expansion into French Territory, the aqusition of fine French Wines, solidifying our place as a world power, etc.

                          War of Wonders!

                          Because thats one of the things we were fighting for control of.

                          It seems to be a popular choice, with those expressing what they voted for. :-)

                          I don't know about this vote changing...it might just be an attempt to make ones vote "count". ;-)
