[Request] Vilnius does not belong to Poland

WhyFy · Jul 12, 2013

I know this was discussed allot of times but i think there has to be truth to be cleared.

Remove city of Vilnius from Poland territory.

Almost 20 years of occupation cannot be presented as normal factor in a game, in which playful period is a few eras or a few thousands years.

Poland in CiV represents all of Poland including Polish-Lithuania. Yes, it's not a Polish city but take a look at Edinburgh. That's not a Celtic city, not even close! CiV is not meant to be realistic, unless if you want, you can make a Polish-Lithuania civ OR remove Vilnius from the game yourself

Don't you think then the name would represent both sides, not only polands? :hmm:

In realistic i mean the name of native cities...

Because they always go with the more generic name. That's why the Celts aren't the Britons, Spain isn't Castile, the Aztecs aren't the Mexica, they were planning the Pueblo and not the Anasazi, and more.

Poland in CiV represents both Poland and Lithuania just like Sweden and Finland, Denmark and Norway. Like what InsanelyApple said, generic names are best to be used in a civilization game. That's why ever since Civ I, there's been no Castile, Aragon, Leon, Athens, Sparta, Peloponnesian League, Delian League, Vichy France, Palenque Kingdom, Ur, Tenochtitlan, Teohuacan, etc etc

Vilnius was as much Polish, as Szczecin was German - for example.

And IIRC isn't Vilnius a CS?

Civ V is not meant to be a realistic historical simulator. Also, if it bothers you that much you can just rename the city from the city screen.

Vilnius is a Mercantile City State in BNW.
