@XanderWalrus

I believe it was the normal puppeting by Greece going communist, and/or Yugoslavia also went to Peasent Republics. It could be either
XanderWalrus  [author] Jun 30 @ 4:02am 
@Zandrus what was the situation for it happening was it the peasant republics path/tags or just normall puppeting them?
XanderWalrus  [author] Jun 30 @ 4:01am 
@Burleon I chose Rumania as it seemed the most commonly used for English context during and before the war therefore most fitting, although after further reading the PCGN did preference it as Romania and ofc that being the official name in Romanian so if talking officially yeah that's the correct name will update it back.
Burleon Jun 29 @ 9:44am 
Please change it back to ROMANIA, Rumania was unofficial in foreign countries, Romanians always called themselves Romania, the U was a mistake from the West and shouldnt be adopted, thanks
Zandrus Jun 20 @ 12:42pm 
Found an overwrite issue, with Bulgaria being a Greek communist puppet and still called "Tsardom of Bulgaria"

I was wondering, what is the graphics mod used in the 3rd and 4th screenshot?

Suggestion: Communist CSA should not be "Union of Socialist States of Dixieland" but "Republic of New Afrika" or something in that vain. Especially since that's been the main Communist nationalist movement in the south.

When Germany goes liberal democratic, it becomes German Republic, despite still having the kaiser

Hello Xander, I have a question. The tag with the '-' is correct in other texts, except the game world map. Its a '?" for some reason. Is there a fix for this?

Or is this a broader bug that Paradox should fix?

@Switching Doom Only vanilla as R56 has way too many cosmetic tags to go through and I'm more familiar with the context of vanilla cosmetic tags.
Switching Doom Apr 12 @ 1:58am 
compatible with R56?

@Brown Guernsey Cow
Changing Xingjiang back to Clique and adding the Provinical Government names for the cliques when puppeted by China.

For the Chinese Soviet Republic it only existed till 1937 whereas the Communist Controlled China / Soviet & Liberated Zone was used from 1937-1948 and if only one tag is present I try to prioritize the longer use ones especially when that names was used between 1939-1945, hopefully with a potential future china update PDX can add the soviet republic as a separate tag like R56.

Allies faction is one I've messed around with both League of Nations and UN I don't like as there more international organizations than a military alliance and although the UN was a name for the allies that was only after '42 similar another name I considered was the Grand Alliance but that term was only used after '41 and by Churchill which wouldn't represent any alt-history scenarios before '41 or without Churchill,
Brown Guernsey Cow Apr 9 @ 6:46pm 
Hey there. I'm just gonna drop a few suggestions really quick for names I think could be changed.

* Allies faction should be called the United Nations instead. That was the name historically used during WWII to refer to the alliance.

* Soviet Zone of China should be renamed to the Chinese Soviet Republic. That was the entity that the CCP in the region would have recognized.

* Xinjiang Provincial Government should probably just be called the Xinjiang Clique. From what I can tell, the KMT did not project power there in 1936, and Xinjiang was a de-facto protectorate of the USSR. Their leader was also not affiliated with the KMT government until the 40s, which is not represented in game (I don't expect you to change this detail).

@Yared Updating fixing both names.
Yared Apr 5 @ 3:18pm 
-same with venezuela.
Yared Apr 5 @ 3:18pm 
@XanderWalrus thanks for the info, i was reading the desc and i typed that. Also Bolivia name should be republic of bolivia, the plurinational state of bolivia was created in the 21st century because a pro-indigenous and socialist party winned the elections
XanderWalrus  [author] Apr 5 @ 3:15pm 
@Yared The name of Vichy France in the mod is the French State.
Yared Apr 5 @ 3:03pm 
super peak mod, but the oficcial and formal name of vichy france was the French State(État français)
Zandrus Mar 25 @ 5:33am 
Nice. I'll keep my eye out for other tags that might be missing if they are formables, etc
XanderWalrus  [author] Mar 24 @ 3:59pm 
@Zandrus Also fixed Peru spelling mistake and the tag "Mughal India" that seems off as there's no localization for that present it should just be the normal UK unless talking about the Raj which I guess maybe a broken cosmetic tag?
XanderWalrus  [author] Mar 24 @ 3:57pm 
@Zandrus I added Assyrian Empire left it out initially as I didn't see it requiring alternate names at the time but since added some slightly altered ones.
Silk Road was missing due to it Pdx cutting from the game prior to the DLC's release due to inaccuracy/memeness.
Also Muhgal Britain is not present same with flags cause even with all the memeness of Hoi4's DLC it's one I couldn't find even a salt worth of justification for adding so just left it to be normal Britain, also kinda fitting with how buggy and lackluster it is in game anyway.
XanderWalrus  [author] Mar 22 @ 3:03am 
@BR Wilhelm Fixed.
BR Wilhelm Mar 21 @ 5:40pm 
Guangxi Clique is "Guangxi clique"
Zandrus Mar 8 @ 12:41pm 
I also noted the Assyrian Empire formable and Silk Road is missing
Zandrus Mar 8 @ 10:37am 
Hey Xander, I found one and two oversights.

One is that the Peru Bolivian Confederation name doesn't show up once you unite Peru and Bolivia, its still seen as the Republic of Peru.

The other is Mughal West Britain Company, which without its tag, becomes "Mughal India".
Zandrus Mar 5 @ 5:20pm 
I wish you a nice and through country name adding, friend. I will update mine accordingly.
Agent Green 51 Feb 23 @ 4:27am 
Ty, it appears the English spelling "Romania" was adopted after WW2, sources I've read have claimed the change occurred around 1960/1970. Reminds me of similar changes to the English language such as the discontinued use of "ae".
XanderWalrus  [author] Feb 22 @ 4:20pm 
@Agent Green 51 During WW2 the English name was "Rumania" deriving from Roumanie there are various languages that still keep the "u" within the name for similar reasons, but the main reason I kept it in was to keep it aligned with HOI4's settings as it during most of the games time span it would've been referred to as with the "u", there are various sources saying when it was changed but most point to some point around the late 40's after the war with the regime change.
Agent Green 51 Feb 22 @ 3:00pm 
Romania is spelled as "Rumania" is this intentional?
XanderWalrus  [author] Feb 19 @ 6:47am 
@Tinu2048 Just updated fixing typo
Tinu2048 Feb 19 @ 6:30am 
Communist Libya has a typo
XanderWalrus  [author] Jan 17 @ 3:33pm 
@Explodyman Lithuania and other formable nations prioritize their official state/constitutional names rather than the base Hoi4 "Greater Name" as alot of them lack any significant context like Lithuania/Voldemarininkai and even for alot of those that do such as Italy had other official names more fitting and where actually used.
XanderWalrus  [author] Jan 17 @ 3:26pm 
@➹La Harrissa❦ Both Democratic Germany and Japan when independent will have the previous Empire and Reich names are both where used during their democratic regimes during the interwar period if East/West Germany is released or if either are puppeted by another nation they will use their Republic/State names.
Explodyman Jan 12 @ 2:32pm 
when i have the greater lithuania cosmetic tag, no name change happens, only color change.
La Harrissa Jan 6 @ 7:37am 
Hi I have a problem where Germany or Japan's names doesn't change after ww2, despite them being democratic. They're still named 'German Reich' or 'Empire of Japan'. Is this only happening to me ?
XanderWalrus  [author] Dec 3, 2024 @ 11:23am 
@Doomtoham The Imperial names are simply "German Reich" as that was the official constitutional name of Germany.
Doomtoham Dec 3, 2024 @ 9:50am 
Does this make it "Deutsches Kaisereich" instead of German Kaiserreich?
Kiwie Nov 16, 2024 @ 6:59am 
@XanderWalrus Thanks for responding! <3
XanderWalrus  [author] Nov 16, 2024 @ 5:58am 
@Kiwie Yeah sorry there was a bug with the localization files I discovered the same when playtesting I did update afterwards but will update again now to be sure it's fixed
Kiwie Nov 15, 2024 @ 5:58pm 
@XanderWalrus when I create reichskommissariats, they do not have a name at all. Is that this mod causing it?
XanderWalrus  [author] Nov 15, 2024 @ 12:14pm 
@Ronald Pump Unfortunately not as R56 has way to many cosmetic tags and such for me to fix compared to base game
Rikaiu Nov 15, 2024 @ 10:46am 
does this work with road to 56?
Zandrus Nov 15, 2024 @ 9:53am 
Hey Xander, there is new content, including factions, like the Austrian created "Alpine Federation" faction. When you do update it, can you list me the tags that did change so I can modify them for my mod?
Zandrus Oct 25, 2024 @ 6:04am 
Hey Xander, for both my mod and yours, the National Republican State (Northern Italy), in game, still spawns as the "Italian Social Republic", which although used, is not the official name.

Should I add an {{Overwrite}} command over it so I can get it to work or is that something else?
XanderWalrus  [author] Oct 22, 2024 @ 4:51am 
@Zandrus Cool if you update the mod feel free to change the name or thumbnail if you want and make it your own as it's really only the link to this mod that I slightly care about as I'd rather people use my localization as a basis than the vanilla pdx one tbf.
Zandrus Oct 21, 2024 @ 10:35am 
Its relatively minor changes, like the COMINTERN changed to "Soviet Sphere" (Not the official name but makes sens, some other flavor for generic fascist factions based on their own internal documentation of how political alliances would work and be named as.

I also changed the fascist name for Iraqi,etc.
XanderWalrus  [author] Oct 21, 2024 @ 9:57am 
@Zandrus Feel free to name it whatever even totally different title most of the stuff in the mod is just historical anyway so nothing I can really claim myself if you just wanna put the mod in the description or something, also for sending adjustments if you just wanna post here what some are if not or there's too many it's fine was curious if it was only for small adjustments like a specific name that could be put in this mod.
