Put Indonesia and not Malay ! - Gajah Mada

[Sums]

So i had this question for long time, Gajah Mada is a military chief of Indonesia, even the campaign on the map is Indonesia, so my request is to rename the civilisation Indonesian (Or javanese). This man die in 1364...

As i know, Malay just existed after 1500, So why not rename Malay for Indonesia ? Microsoft please

From what I'm reading, there is not a real relevancy on using "Malays" or "Indonesians"...

This even says that Indonesian language is basically a variant of Malay. I recommend you to go with the Javanese card, which seems more suitable.

Anyway, I still don't get why it's a matter, if "Indians" is a rude generalization of the different ethnic groups in that subcontinent, "Malians" is a generalization of the entire West Africa Coast, & a lot other civs have the same nuisance, that don't prevent us to have a cool Incas vs Mongols skirmishes.

Yes it should be Javanese at the Majapahit Empire (like the campaign) but the future of this empire is Indonesia for me (NOT MALAY) it's like Italians, they could be Romans too ...

The terms of Indonesia name was founded at around 1800-1900 what do you mean man? 😂

This game is based on civilizations, not a modern nation state

Majapahit empire = 1292
Malay = Around 1800
Indonesia = after 1945

I just told, Malay is not the exact, Indonesia also. So it should be called Javanese or Majapahit empire, but the story in the campaign is Majapahit empire (Indonesia NOW) with Gajah Mada story as a reference of Indonesia history. So it's more accurate than Malay.

The names for most of the civs are all overly generalised and wrong

-Franks
-Britons
-Vikings
-Teutons
-Indians
-Sarracens
-Celts

These are "civs" that either don't correspond with the actual civilisations or are stretched beyond reason to make fit with the game's focus
