Might I ask if you're renaming a country off of a Mod you're using? I used this one mod for the longest time which made two countries name themselves bizarrely after revolutions. One example is Westphalia turns into Serbia? wtf. Modder got that one off by a long shot. There's one other small country that gets renamed something like that but i cant recall.

If they ever make a second id like to see these two features:

A) a campaign map that is historically correct, applying especially to countries such as Prussia that when a revolution occurs, are renamed "Germany", or at least when they finally unite.

B) It would be nice if they had a second feature, possibly DLC, where when a country has a revolution, YOU can name it, as well as name the King. It would be more personal to see yourself as King or President while your country is successfully expanding or being destroyed.

I want Empire II so bad, I'd probably start an intercontrinental war to have it.

I installed the Minor Factions Revenge Mod and their addon which turns the Kingdom of Sardinia into the Empire of Italy or something close. The name didn't change, only the flag, so I want to change the Kingdom of Sardinia's name to Italy or something close. I would also maybe change Austria into Holy Roman Empire, and maybe change Prussia into Germany.

Kume, what app should I open the startpos file with? Notepad and Wordpad give me jiberous.
