In 1.30 the government name of the Palatinate was changed to "Electoral Palatinate" and the ruler's title was changed to Elector-Palatine. I would suggest that a similar unique government and ruler name treatment be given to Brandenburg. When Duke-level, Branderburg shoulc be called Margraviate (Electoral Margraviate when an elector) and the ruler should be known as Margrave (Elector-Margrave when an elector). Just for flavour to acknowledge the various ranks and titles of historical electors (King, Duke, Margrave and Palatine, as opposed to the current status of two Dukes).

The primary difference is that in German, the Palatinate was always known specifically as Kurpfalz. The others where more often interchangeable, not the case with kurpfalz.

I feel its more important to change the naming of the vassals of france, making most of them counties, like foix, armagnac, nevers,

And the naming of Elector Bishops. They are currently archbishops which is fine, but Magdeburg, Salzburg and Bremen (sorta represented as Verden) were also Archbishops.
