I would love being able to rename your civilization during the game. So, for example, if you were playing as Russia, and you became a communism, you could rename yourself the USSR. Not that big, but it would be great!
Rename Civilization
- Thread starter Gogf
- Start date

Now in Black and White!!
yeah, that'd rock. I mean, we get to rename our units already, into things like "The First 'We Love Theodora' Army", so why not just name other things, like mountains and stuff. Would be quite funny in multiplayer if you're playing as Rome and one of your neighbours renames their Civ to "we're behind you Ceaser" lol

This idea would also be lots of fun if you started with the "actual" starting groups as well. For instance, I start with Meso-America. Later, I decide to go Mayan. After a bad period of stagnation, I become the Aztecs and go sacrifice some enemy butts.
Ditto on Northern Europe, Mediterranean, or whatever. This would also really rock if some of the Civil War suggestions were incorporated. Now the Roman Empire could really split into Itallians, French, Spanish etc.

I am definately behind this idea 
And It should be easy to implement, too!
And It should be easy to implement, too!Along with this idea maybe a button that rename a stack of units instead of doing this one by one. I want to rename my 30 infatry men to Easy Company all at once or the 101st division.
And when your troops are all lost, the Military advisor could say :
"Sir, We've lost contact with the 101st division, I fear the worst"

Good idea!
For example Rome
Ancient: Roman Empire
Medieval: German-Roman Empire
Industrial: Naples or Piemont
Modern: Italy
Only one civ but it has several names!

You sir, pineapple?
HRE has nothing to do with Rome, I recomend: Rome, Venice, Papal States, Italy.

Either way you need to rename it.

Congrats, mate
As for the naming Idea, to some it may seem purely cosmetic and useless, I back it all the way.
Not only would it be alot more fun, but it would fix problems like:
'England or United Kingdom' or 'Aztecs or Mexico'
Something so simple as renaming your country, physical features, etc. should be simple to put in. It's just one of those 'no objection' ideas

Yea, that would be a pretty cool feature to add.

Yes! Going further, similar to my idea of being able to re-name any AI city, we should have the option of re-naming any AI Civ, too. Then, you could play the game as Peter, and also have Catherine and Stalin in the game (custom game) without them all being named "Russia". They could be called, for instance, "Ukraine", "Poland" and "Russia", or anything else you might want to call them.
Then Frederick could be "Germany" and Bismarck could be in the same game as "Prussia". Or vice-versa ... you get the idea. It's very flexible ...you could use any civ, with any combination of characteristics, and then call the civ "Canada", or "Paraguay", or "Tunisia", or "Oz", or "Hail, Hail Fredonia!".

Puglover is exactly right. By going to "My Details" and the "formal name" section (I think), you can change your country's name to whatever you please.
As America, I ALWAYS change it to the United States of America, UNLESS I adopt State Property, in which I call it the United Socialist States of America.
Other names I have used:
England, Representation or Univ. Suffrage: Commonwealth of England
France, Rep/Un.Suff.: French Republic
Mali, ditto: Mali Free State
Aztecs, ditto: United Aztec States (in reference to the official name of Mexico)
China, Police State: State of China
Japan, Hereditary Rule: 日本国, which reads: Nihon-koku: State of Japan
Arabia, Rep or Un.Suff/Theocracy: Islamic Republic of Arabia
