Ideology Names

Description
This mod changes the names of the ideologies from Freedom, Order, and Autocracy to Liberalism, Communism, and Fascism respectively.

As the Civ V wiki notes, "the three Ideologies can easily be connected to the three major ideological movements that gained momentum in the 20th century: Liberalism (Freedom), Communism (Order), and Fascism (Autocracy)."
It annoyed me that Firaxis decided to obscure that, so I made this mod.

To everyone saying "freedom should be capitalism", no it shouldn't. Capitalism does not have to exist in a free society. Freedom means liberalism i.e. free. Capitalism in-and-of itself is not a free system, it's dictated by the ownership of capital, not in any democratic proceeding. The best term for Freedom would be Democracy or Liberalism, Liberalism is just more generic because you also don't necessarily need a democratic government to have a free and democratic society.

I think it would be better if Freedom was called Democracy instead of Liberalism, but it still works

Definitely more accurate than the nonsensical vanilla labels.

Freedom is Captalism. Other than that, not bad.

any idea on how to make the ideologies discovered sooner, like in the renaissance instead of the modern era?

they decided to obscure that in the event of backlash that's what i think at least

Noice mod. One of the things I disliked about BNW is that it removed "Communism" as a policy. Completely agree with everything "kautskyfan69" said too.

A more super apropriate name for Freedom would be Demo-Liberalism. On one hand it's not confusing for americans that think that liberalism is what hippies want and worship. On the other, it emphasises the form of government. But, on a third hand, then we'd have to specify the other two. Fascism is already super specific, but Communism could be even more. State-Comunism or State-Socialism seems more appropriate. Socialist-Republic would be a good alternative too.
