Yes, but often dynasties as civ names is your gripe. Also, as another good example, the Nahuatl-speaking Mexica who rued their tributory empire from the Tenichtitlan Triple Alliance did not call themselves, "Aztecs," - in fact, according to their religion, Huitzlpochtli forbade them to refer to refer to themselves as, "Aztecha," after he led them out them Aztlan, speaking of entrenched names introduced historiographically.
Might be a bit dicey given the misuse of the word, "Aryan," by a failed Austrian painter and two Nordic Neo-Pagan reviivalists in the modern consciousness.
So making a France civ with a Medici leader implies that anyone else isn't French? What?
She was only ever Regent. Though she was married to a King, and the mother of another King, she was never Queen Regnant, nor could be. Though, by that marriage, she was as French as the Greek-born Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, was British.
Ok? I can recite historical facts too. I’m using an analogy to try to understand his logic.
I'm not interested in more of your completely unnecessary, trouble-making static.
There is no "definitive division" of continents, they are divided differently in separate cultures (see: wherever or not to divide America or Eurasia) and there is no formal geographical definition of a continent, and especially not on where the border between Europe and Asia lies which is all over the place depending on who you ask.
Having a France civ coëxisting with an Aquitaine or an Anjou one would imply that, yes
Turks, by broadest definition, could refer to many, many nations completely different and unrelated to each other over a very large period of time and a huge span of Eurasia, from a Khaganate on the northeast frontiers of Tang-Dynasty China to the modern Republic created by Ataturk. Yes, the Seljuks and the Ottomans called thamselves Turks, but so did the Rouran, Xiongnu, Yakut, Uigyurs, Uzbeks, Khivans, Khazars, Kipchaks, Avars, Kazakhs, etc. The Huns POSSIBLY may have, too. Some unofficial, histororiographical distinction would have to be made in this case just to avoid very easy confusion, and for sanity's sake.
Where do you live because I've learned that it varies by location, for whatever reason? I noticed a lot of people in the forums that lives in Europe kept referring to America as one continent, whereas I was taught that North America and South America are two different.
Though, in most historical renditions, the, "Sultanate of Rum," is usually seen as a rump state of the Seljuck Sultanate that survived Tamerlane's Western invasion, but was conquered and absorbed by one of the Anatolian Beyeliks rulled by Osman's son.
Wouldn't that just translate to them being Rome in Turkish?
Yes, which is why I started with the condition of if we wanted to go crazy...Wouldn't that just translate to them being Rome in Turkish?
