Cosmopolitaine is a word meaning "familiar with and at ease in many different countries and cultures". It is not the name of any ethnic or cultural group.

Byzantine is a historographic term we use to refer to the Empire. It was the name of city before Constantine changed it. The Empire itself still refered to itself as the Roman Empire, with some contemporaries refering to it as the Greek Empire due to its increasingly Greek, as opposed to Latin, culture.
Confirmed patch 1.12 French primary culture is now "BBB". This is done for "performance" reasons because it has fewer characters.

The term still existed in the EU timeframe which is what was discussed here. Contrary to "cosmopolitain" which started to appear towards the end of the XIXth century (and is actually a bad form of the adjective "cosmopolite" which was coined in the XVIIth century).

I'm not discussing the name of the culture (if it was replacing it with several other cultures, it would be different). Sorry, but that's something that i have no interest what so ever.The term still existed in the EU timeframe which is what was discussed here.

I'm just saying that the name "Byzantine Empire" is a bad example, because that name was given well after the fall of Constantinople.

I tried to follow your STR and clicked Toulouse but I don't see any 'Cosmopolitaine' culture so I guess it's fixed on my end!

Hi, please see below the full conversation you have been replying to, the keyword is "EU era".
Please note that i have no interest what so ever in "Byzantine Empire" since this is not the topic of the discussion/
Since Cosmopolitan can mean a place (or culture) composed of different elements of the world (or here of cultures) and that Cosmopolitaine actually mean Cosmopolitan French (as in Cosmopolitan culture in the French culture group).
My take is that Cosmopolitan is a mix of all French cultures (Occitan/Norman..) in the game and of cultures not represent in the game and included in the name (Angevins, Picards, Champenois etc.).
In that case the use of Cosmopolitaine is appropriate.
Also for those who suggest Francien/Francilien instead please note that it's just as an anachronic use than Cosmopolitaine as the world appeared in the XIXth century. And specifically for Ile-de-France (who simply were named French or Parisian French or François) not the other regions represented by Cosmopolitaine.
The only non anachronic word to describe Cosmopolitaine that comes on my mind is Frankish (Or Francs to used a French word again) even tough the use of Frankish has started to decline in the start of EUIV and fell completly in use by the end of the game.

He wants to say its fixed with the next patch, won't he? Of course this is DLC only content, and it will just be enabled by a tick in the Options, and we will be punished by a dev Diary in which is explained why Cosmopolitaine is perfectly correct.
They can't call it French, because Occitan is also "French" as in pertaining to France.
