I personally don't mind either we call them with names like "West Africa States" or just "Nigeria" as long as the names are consistent. Since we have EU in our list already, for consistency, I think it is better to call them "West Africa States" and etc.
For the Bolivarian Americas (short for "Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas), it doesn't include Ecuador and Paraguay.
I think Mongolia, Norway and New Zealand are important enough on the map. They occupy significant space on GEM for us not to ignore their existence. Like I said, when it comes down to playability, it is the number of cities we can use to represent them that matters. Why make a 4 city nation as minor while choosing a 1 or 2 city nation as playable?
ianinsane, what are you using to make those maps?
Arab States of the Gulf (Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar and United Arab Emirates)
Israel
Palestine
Syria
Iran
Pakistan
Bangladesh
India
@DVS: if you check more closely my proposal, you should realize Somalia, Chad and Zambabwe are all classified as Failed states already. I have also listed the number of cities of the four African unions. West (10), Central (8), South (9) and East (6) - Central isn't really particularly strong. I think what we need to do is to make alot of Barbarian units to surround these states initially such that these unions will be busy in fighting like in reality.
@JEELEN: Well, Arab States of the Gulf is a real union and it doesn't include Yemen. If we split it, we are making artificial unions.
The Arab states of the Gulf is having only 8 cities in total (4 for Saudi, 1 Kuwait, 1 Qatar, 1 UAE and 1 Oman and can't fit Bahrain). Iran is having 7 cities and Turkey 6. I don't think the Arab is overly dominating Middle East.
