I'd say to make Gnassingbe Eyadema Aggressive and Financial instead, as he did increase Togo's economy by quite a bit.

Good job! One suggestion - you may want to shorten the name of 'Togolese Mechanized Infantry' for aesthetic reasons.

Maybe 'Togo Mech Infanty' or a word for 'infantry' in Ewe or Mina?

Thank you for your suggestions, in my next version i will make Gnassingbe Eyadema financial and if i can find the Ewe word for infantry i will use it:D

just use the Ewé word for soldier or warrior.

oooh oooh oooh "Metal Warrior" The Ewé equivalent.

and i'll also help in looking for the translation. =)

I think it may be next to impossible to find someone one the internet who speaks Ewe.... let's go with french their offical language.

Guerrier en acier

It means Steel warrior....i figure it would be a simplified version on how they would perceive it. Or we can use the french translation...

Infanterie Mécanisée (mechanized infantry)

i would suggest F.A.T.M. Infantry (Force Armées Togolaise Mechanised Infantry)

French version: Infanterie MFAT

I do actually know someone who speaks ewe (my stepfather) but i dont particularly want to ask him as he will want to know why and i cant be bothered to explain:D

so ill just use F.A.T.M Infantry, thanks for your suggestions

ive made the changes and so version 1.1 has now replaced the original

I think it should be Mechanized T.A.F.I (Togolese Armed Forces Infantry) instead. It sounds cooler...Mechanized Taffey...hehe. =)

and ask your step-father regardless, maybe you can even get a history lesson from him. =)

naw, silly person.................


i have asked him a lot about the history....probably too much! As for this particular question, because the main language spoken in togo is french ive decided that F.A.T.M Infantry is the most logical

alright fair enough...but tell me about the history regardless. =)

Yeah sure Wyz_Sub, anything which spreads knowledge of this relatively unknown country is welcome. As youll need to add another great leader i recommend Sylvanus Olympio. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvanus_Olympio Hes pretty much the only other leader togo has had for a considerable amount of time

No need to thank me Slavic Sioux as this was around before you even joined :)

EDIT: Ive discovered that the version i found on my friends P.C was the older one, so ive replaced the download with the newer version
