Culture Specific Titles
(DISCONTINUED)
This is my first time modding a Paradox game, so I decided to start with the basics (Is there anything more basic than editing a few names with Excel? )
Anyway, my objective with this mod is to change the vanilla titles with more "specific" ones, for examples, the King of France will be know as the Roi of France and the Kingdom of France will be know as Royaume de France. A simple translation actually. I will be changing every name that can be changed, from Kings to Mayors (Maybe even Court Jesters).
I will also accept suggestions for even more "specific" titles, for example, instead of simple changing the french heir (prince) to a french word we could be using the word Dauphin. But keep in mind that I will try to not hurt gameplay with extremely complicated and mostly unknown names.
This means that I will try to have three versions running, starting with the Translated Titles, soon followed by Only Translated Countries and then another one with Translated Countries and Titles.
I started with France and will be expanding with the other Western Countries to them expand into the Eastern Countries. I will not be touching Muslim/Pagan titles unless there is a obvious replacement. Maybe when everything else is finished I might look more unto them.
And before anyone asks, yes, this mod should be compatible with every other mod and should work with every language (From English to German).
Also, I will be accepting requests, so if a certain mods adds a new Kingdom you can ask me to translate that Kingdom from that mod.

Template File
If you want to help and has the time for it, you could just fill up the file yourself and send me back.
Know Issues
- As the titles are culture-dependent the Navarre and Naples Kings (in the Hundred Years War start) also get the french titles. You may want to see it not as a bug but as a feature.
- I am yet to find a way to change the Bishop names.
- In many occasions you will use the same titles of your liege's culture, for example: Dutch will use German Titles until they are granted independence.
