  • Revolution should allow you to rename your civ

    We have seen here plenty of treads concerning 'civs that are not civs', 'those should not be in the game'.
    Many complains about USA, but few about Germany. Why? Because unconsciously, when you say 'Germany', many thinks Goths, Prussia, Germany are all the same. Just like no Italian has ever complain about Italy not being among the civs, just because they are happy with Rome.
    What I would have like is the ability to rename my civ as consequence of revolution. Here are some examples of possible default values:

    Germans:
    Despotism: Goths
    Monarchy: Prussia/ Holy Roman Empire
    Republic: Republic of Weimar
    Democracy: Bundes Republik Deutschland
    Comunism: Deutsche Democratische Republik

    France:
    Despotism: Franks
    Monarchy: Royaume de France
    Republic: Republique Francaise
    Democracy: Republique Francaise
    Comunism: La Commune

    Italy:
    Despotism: Etrusks (?)
    Manarchy: Rome / Roman Empire / Byzantium
    Republic: Res Publica
    Democracy: Italy
    Comunism: ?

    Russia:
    Despotism: Khanat of ?
    Monarchy: Russia
    Republic/Democracy: Russian Republic
    Communism: USSR

    USA:
    Despotism: free, Saxon as default, but could be any
    Monarchy: Elvismania
    Republic: at choice: Confederate or Union
    Democracy: USA
    Comunism: ?

        Great idea, but it should only be optional, because I probably wont play with it.
        This space is empty... or is it?

            I really like this idea...but instead of being so focused, you should just prompt the user.

            I have always thought being the Babylonians in AD 2000 was unconfortable. I would have like to have gone through a Persian phase, a Iraqi phase, etc.

            PS Yes I know the Persians are now in the game.
