Byzantine Reconquest Renaming of Provinces

[lorendekock]

Hi All

As a huge Byzantine fan, I'm quite happy with the new expansion. It's always great fun trying to reconquer the lost lands. I feel it would really add to the authenticity if the names of baronies, counties and provinces were automatically changed back to the Greek or Latin names when Byzantium (or later, Rome) reconquers these areas. Or at the very least, they should change back if the local culture is converted to Greek / Roman. I believe it is a bit of an oversight on the part of the designers. It would have been a perfect addition to this latest DLC. Is there a mod available that does this?

Agree - I was hoping for equivalent naming standards for all of the historical Roman Empire cities and provinces. Like, I understand that they didn't have the same borders for Medieval duchies - but at least critically important cities and central province renaming.

It feels more fulfilling and it's a really simple design implementation.

FYI. I use a mod that allows me to reshape duchies. I can move counties from one duchy to another, assign duchies to different de jure kingdoms and even combine duchies/kingdoms in order to delete them. It may be "cheating" a little, but it makes perfect sense. If Byzantium were to reconquer the northern provinces for example, why would they not make the border at the Danube? Reshaping duchies along those ancient borders therefore isn't ahistorical in my opinion.

It would just be really cool if cities and provinces were renamed automatically as well.
