They are very helpful! I was not looking forward to researching a bunch of names for hypothetical ships (for the Celts, Maya, and so on) and this simplifies things greatly. I especially like the pirates.
My naming system is a bit different from yours in one respect, though: where possible, I used specific ship types. So the USS Enterprise is an American carrier, the USS Ticonderoga a cruiser, and the USS Shaw a destroyer. I think I might add in another generic category for nations without historical names, since it doesn't matter if the Malinese vessel Mountaga Tall is a DD or a CV, because it never existed.
Good work.
