Because of how ridiculous this is, I feel like it's appropriate to put this in the Bug Forum over anywhere else, despite the fact that it isn't a bug in and of itself - it seems like everything is working fine. It is just so out of left field that I can't believe that this was an intended 'feature' of the game.

Is it truly intended that Australia be the Empire of the Platypus if it goes Fascist?

Likewise, is it truly intended that New Zealand as a Fascist is the Kiwi Empire - and (if talk elsewhere is to believed, should NZ go Communist, though I have not witnessed it, myself) Kiwi Republic?

They both seem utterly ridiculous and like some sort of terrible and immature joke from a pre-release build that was, simply put, never cleaned up for the actual release.
