This is completely insane idea but I love it :0
Ardalan and Bohtan are historical Kurdish tags both existing in game. Well, they also sound more sexy than modern 'ethnic-stan'
Actually I like this idea because
a) It had some base in reality, medieval personal union
b) It sounds cool
c) It would offer new fascinating gameplay for human (well I can't imagine AI forming it, although I have seen GB conquering Norway so...)
Not sure about this. I mean, what these counries have in common? 'Germanic languages family' is extremely far - fetched similarity.
I think two options would be gold:
1) Restore Mongol Empire
2) Form Yuan
The obvious answer is to RNG the mandatory provinces to form a country, using colonial range to determine max distance the provinces can be from each other. Then we watch as the OCD perfect border people lose their minds.
A Celtic Union nation would be incredible.
Unite Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Cornwall and Britanny to form.
Conquer Galacia, Gaul, Northern Italy, Macedonia, Central Anatolia, Swiss + Austrian territory for achievement.
:ninja: Unite the ancestral lands!

*Cough* "Byzantium" is the Roman Empire and it always was, Byzantium was Constantinople's former name, 19th century historian had issues decided that empire that called itself the Roman Empire until the very end and was called the Greek Empire by the West should be called by its capital's former name.
With that logic 24th century historian should rename British Empire to London. To make sure that anybody doesn't confused pre-Glorious Revolution England with post-Glorious Revolution England.
United Asia or United EurAsia. / Turkic Union / Turan Union / Slavic Union / EastAsian Union /...etc
That. It always confused me when people said: "We don't need Two Sicilies, we have Sicily and Naples" - uh, yeah? That's the point of Two Sicilies? At this point Sicily and Naples - both of them were officially called "Kingdom of Sicily" - have been separate long enough to be considered different entities. That's why the country was called "Kingdom of the Two Sicilies" and not "Kingdom of Siciliy" after (re)unification.
And we could really need some alternate versions of existing countries - an alternate Spain, for example, based on an union between Castille and Portugal instead of the historicak "Iberian Marriage".
Yes, I believe that after you take half of the world provinces, you should have the decision for Imperium of Man: resulting in gaining claims on entire planet and formation of world coalition against you. That will be totally awesome like the Real divide from Shogun 2. Imperium of Man vs the rest of the world
1) Way outside the timeline
2) It would basically amount to making "(X) Heretics" their own country.
Because it's a logical tag for Portugal to progress to if Portugal unifies Iberia.
This is because Portugal forming Spain almost certainly implies that Castile/Aragon have not formed Spain, meaning that there is no Spain for Portugal to define itself in opposition to. Portugal-formed Spain really needs a flag that doesn't imply a union of Castile, Aragon and Naples, but I'm sure that would be possible for the devs to get around to at some point. Hopefully.
I think it is a silly idea. You have an almost infinite number of ahistorical nations that could be formed, is a waste of time trying to add that many tags to the game.
Adding the ability to customise your country name might be possible, but changing the colour wouldn't since that could easily lead to problems.
What exactly in the country colour and flag is glorifying the English?

The problem ingame atm for that is that Portugal->Spain looks exactly the same as Castile-Agaron->Spain (no Naples needed). It's not just the flag, but all of the colours switch.
But yes, more generally to the topic, some plausible alternates would be nice.
Going along the line of 'old empires' to tie back into (legitimacy thing), there should be quite a few that could work around the world (outside of North/south America because that's just weird).
