EDCNs (Expanded Dynamic Civ Names) new thread

yes it is but It's mostly a democratic republic Or the dictators name.
 
Maybe if the switch there capital to Pakistan or anywhere except India, the would get the Pakistani default name

The difference should be religion. "Pakistan" in its original concept wasn't a geographic area at all but a term for all of Muslim India. A Muslim state ruling all of India could still conceivably be called Pakistan. Similarly, a Hindu (or Buddhist) state even with Lahore or Karachi as its capital would definitely not be called Pakistan.

Hindu Mughals should have the same dynamic names as India after the conquerors. Muslim Mughals are fine as-is. Buddhist Mughals should probably be the same as India as well.
 
Well, what if both the Mughals and the Indians are alive and both of them are Hindus? Then what happens?

Not entirely true. The name Pakistan is a partial acronym of the ethnic groups that lived within the territory of the original Pakistan (including Bangladesh).
 
This could all be solved by a guaranteed India respawn. Kind of sucks that India has no lategame place on the map.

The only reason the Mughals should 'become' India is because there's no actual India. My computer is a toaster but I'm guessing that India doesn't respawn unless the British are dead or something. Correct me if I'm wrong however.

If there is any namechanges for Mughals, maybe if the capital is west of Lahore the country is Afghanistan and if the capital is east of Varanasi the country becomes Bangladesh? In the middle zone it could stay as Pakistan. Would be cool to see different countries represented with different capitals.
 
Granted, I don't play many games all the way through the modern era to reach the period when modern India should be respawning, but in recent USA, Japan and Prussia games that did play to at/near the very end of the tech tree, India never respawned. It feels like India should have a better chance of respawning, or perhaps a scripted respawn provided England/Mughals/whoever controls India is unstable. (In my USA and Japan games, that was England; in the Prussia game, it was all independent as I had destroyed England.)
 
It probably won't work with the SVN?
 
It at least also modifies the Python code that assigns the names.
 
A suggestion to Brazil. If a date may be used to change used names, Brazil should have 2 (or even 3 if that's not an issue) when running a non-socialist republic.

From 1889 to 1937 we were called Republic of the United States of Brazil. Then from 1937 to 1967 we were called simply United States of Brazil. Only from 1967 onwards that we got our current name Federative Republic of Brazil.

Maybe Brazil could be called United States of Brazil before the 60s and Federative Republic of Brazil afterwards if it's using a non-socialist republic system.

If someone else has already showed this here, my apologies.
