[truckingpete]

Hey, I was looking for constitutional monarchy..thanks!

Thanks for these interesting gov icons Rufus. I like them all, especially the Republican one for Napoleon because it reminds me of Santa's hat somehow. These are definitely going into my mod.

Actually it's a Phrigian hat, the simbol of Sanscoulotte on French Revolution (it's the hat of Marianne, the symbol of France).

I always thought the symbol of the Sansculotte were the Pants (without Cullottes) but the hat is very sweet - love it !!!

Added a new gov (fascism 2) and edit first post

 

[W.i.n.t.e.r]

sweet fas2 is a perfect one here- will make a government type called dictatorship (in itself similar to fascism, yet less absolutist )

 

[W.i.n.t.e.r]

Forgot to ask: Any ideas for a Military Regime Icon ?? (in my mod the Germans's favored government is my newly created "military regime")

since fascism is not a German idea, I gave Fascism to ethiopia for lack of better suitability- Italy has had so many different governments that I didn't want to apply it there either...

The history of federalism is very old, dating back to the first documented federal systems of ancient Isrealite tribes over 3200 years ago. Of similar antiquity were the confederations of the Bedoiun tribes and the Native confederacies in North America. But the first modern federation is United States, which adopted a federal constitution in 1787. And EU is still federalizing it has not yet established a federal constitution.
I'm not advocating to use US flag for federalism, but because the United States invented modern federation and took the name federalism for it I think it's better to use something else as a symbol of federalism.

The only problem is that I'm a convinced european, so I don't make another one...

@Rufus T. Firefly - Are there any plans for an Technocracy Government Icon?

Which technocracy? Futuristic, modern? Give some idea...

Technocracy, a civilization ruled by technology, where an emphasis is put on intelligence, education and "enlightenment." Basically would kick butt at scientific research, but suck at long-term warfare (basically what the Federation in Star Treck is).

On another note, thanks for the Socialism Icon, it looks much better than my poor cobbled together one that I use for my Tweaked Out mod. It will be going in the next patch (release of patch contingent on the progress of a zillion other projects.)
