No, because here there is a major significant difference. That would be like naming the Russians the USSR instead, or even calling the ROmans the Italians! Firaxis isn't that dumb.

...or calling the Persians the Iranians. Actually, maybe Farsi would be even better.

BTW, didn't CtP have Hebrews?

Or the British the English? Why did they do that?

Well, I don't know whether that would be a point in favor or against their inclusion in PTW. IIRC they also had Polynesians, a nod toward geographical representation, I suppose.

Yeah, and CTP I had Jamaicans, Indonesians, Canadians, Dutch, etc. Not necessarily a selling point for Hebrews in the XP.
