^^^^^ It always feels a little disappointing to form GB from a country other than England, because the end-result doesn't look any different so it still feels as if the English are the ruling nation. Assuming Burgundy is still a French-language country, shouldn't its provinces use their French names? E.g. Fribourg, Berne, and Suisse.

Please do not support the Western cultural imperialism and change all province names to their real names as used by the locals, in their writing system, down to the last kanji and the very last accent. If you do invest the countless hours to do the necessary research and editing, I promise I will spend the necessary two seconds to vote this thread 5 in return.

Quick fix for this: Mod in a new copy of Great Britain that's purple-ish with a new name. You now have Welsh GB.

No Switzerland?  It looks like Tirol has most of the land that would form the Confederation. Wiz quick question, is Tirol a monarchy, or is it a confederation of canton banded together for mutual trade and defense?

Honestly it's closest to the Faroe islands flag - I wouldn't say it looks Finnish Finnish but it definitely looks Scandinavian. Which I guess isn't too far off from where the dutch order's at, so it's good. Those are good colors too, it really pops.

If you're already doing it, rename the province of Nis into Velbazhd. Nis is way to the west in Serbia, and the province is already bulgarian in culture so might as well give it a bulgarian name

Change Ghent to Gent, which is the correct Dutch spelling. Bit silly to have the Dutch names for Vlaanderen and Antwerpen, but then throw in Ghent. If Artois is Flemish, it could be called Artesië. But it'd depend on how long it's been part of Flanders.

That Batavian Order flag is the Teutonic flag with the shield of Brabant in the middle and the colors of Frisia making up the cross. I thought this was appropriate since Frisia and Brabant both had holdings in the region and are the main "Dutch" powers in this timeline. Also Frisia's flag is frankly kind of goofy whilst Brabant's is exceptionally cool. I'm not sure what looks Finnish about it, but it is a little too big and I can edit it a little when I go to resize. Overall though I'm pretty happy with it, and Icecream_Jones made a nice alternative as well if you don't like mine.

Pakled posted:It hasn't gotten a lot of attention in this LP, but the Low Countries look exciting. Brabant and Flanders are going to be pretty powerful, and the area is a lot more unified than historically in 1400. The first two will probably be among the most powerful in the HRE, taking a back seat only to Burgundy. Flanders got lucky, because it looks like in whatever version Wiz is using Vlaanderen has been split into Vlaanderen and Gent.

Agree about Gent, but it's such a minor flaw that it doesn't really matter. I think province names are dependent on the culture of the province and not on the dominant culture of its owner, so Artois would still be Artois, though.

From looking at that map Nicaea looks in a really solid position to retake Constantinople. Also does Armenia not have the Armenia province? If they don't have it they should have a mission to retake it as well as any other provinces that still have large numbers of Armenians in them. I think the Jamalids have most of those provinces.
