And WTF, after all this mods just does what it wants, isn't it ?

Why the Hell "Nazi Germany" ? That's historically incorrect...
It is correct, it was called the German Reich and later on Greater German Reich.

Hey will this ever be updated?

@PaulusAugustus you don't know that, someone might say "yeah i'm going on vacation in the Fifth french republic"
Jared4Wally Jul 12, 2017 @ 1:17pm 
UPDATE.

Seems like a lot of pedantly changing names from their 'commonly known as' names... nobody ever called France the Third French Republic, same that nobody ever calls it the Fifth French republic today. "Where are you going on holiday this year?" "Oh we're going to the Fifth French Republic." Na.

@AidanMCK12 Nazi mythology is a mixture of Germanic and Asian mythologies. They took e.g. the name Aryan from Iran and the swastika symbol from India.
