I know this is not the finished map, but you have realised you have one underwater mountain in the Toulon province right ?

Maybe it has to do with how democratic you are? how sympathetic you are to democracies? im guessing like a wild man

Yes, like in EU/EU2 you will be able to change all names (leaders, cities etc) for all purposes except that province names shown on the map itself are (for technical reasons) fixed.

Interesting. All the more reasons to fix the north central Italiam provinces early then, especially the oddly located "Parma"

I'm guessing its a value of how important the province is for your victory progress

Maybe..

I guess Torino isn't very important to Italians then.
I wonder if every province will always have the same victory importance for everyone, or if some places will be more important. Example: Italy has 0 on Torino, but Britain could have 10, and U.S. could have 20 or something like that.

Thank you!

All I want it to say is that Rijeka is historical Croaitan and should be named Rijeka or Istra(name of that peninsula)

Oh well, what we do get looks good

Not sure I understand your comment about weekly... i was under the impression that if we post one screen every week it must be called weekly.


Or am I mistaken?

I think they're thinking more along the lines of screenshots as opposed to screenshot.

No fair you guessing. You probably know somebody at Paradox who is feeding you the information.

We should get some pictures of the political map, to see Europe divide in colors.........

BACK TO THE BOLOGNA REGION POINT. (sorry, but I read this topic only now )

I think that region is fine.
It doesn't represent the real political region of Emilia-Romagna, but it simulates the Gustav-Line, a German fortificated line on the Bologna sector of Appenini mounts.

Yes, it's very useful for military defense of northern Italy, like the Gustav-line in WW2. But Bologna is a strange name for that region!
PS I'm happy to see you are Italian!

Ok I guess thats a good reason to have the region shaped the way it is on the map, and Bologna is the most logical city to use for that area. But Parma should still be changed to Ferrarra

Ops! We have done a mistake: the defense line between Bologna and Firenze (but nearer to Firenze) was the Gothic line. The Gustav was in southern Italy, near Monte Cassino.

This is one of the cases where we will have to live with abstractions. The province is just too big to assign to Italy, even if Italy was in possession of the city Rijeka (which they call Fiume) itself at that time. No doubt, as with respect to every Paradox game map before, there will be discussions about names, and as always, not every issue has a definite solution. For example, one could make a case that the city representing southern Tyrolia should be named Bozen yadayada ... But it has its Italian name, and in comparison I think it's just as ok that Rijeka is named Rijeka, I guess.

Hartmann

I must say that your thinking is absolutely not logical Hartmann. If Bolzano is OK for you (instead of Bozen) the same argumentation has to apply for Fiume / Rijeka.

However, IMHO Paradox has 3 choices concerning province names:

a given province is named upon
1) to which nation it belonged in 1936
2) which ethnicity has a majority (could be a very hot issue!)
3) always use English name where possible

Moreover, I hope very much that Paradox will give much more efforts concerning province names within the Carpathian Basin (Slovakia, Hungary, Romania) than they did in EU2. Especially the Hungarian names + province sizes were extremely ridiculous.
