Just noticed on the archives that Mexihco's spelt wrong. Don't know if any other nations' names are incorrect, but I'll scour to see :P

Great.

Errors:
Machiavella > Machiavellia
Novikyrazniystan > Noviykrazniystan
Ayrez > Aryez
Freianova > Feianova
Matbaaic > Matbaic (Ecumenical Synody)

+ a few capital letters/accents missing that aren't too much of a worry :P

The key entries should all be spelt fine though, I check the spelling against the entry :P

Most of the key spellings are different to what's in the archive :wink:

Although Feianova was just misspelt on the key in the first place...

Hmmm, on the capitalisation, should I capitalise the first letter of each word of a nation name or just the first letter of the first word?

I see people capitalising the first letter of every word in macronational names...

Yeah, I preseve mis-spelt names on the key

I'd capitalise each word. And "Freianova" was the only incorrect key entry, all the others were just copied-over wrong :)

Well I record the key entry for each nation on each map in the links table as well as the nation names

I didn't mean for you to put "Ecumenical Synody" in brackets, I was just saying that "Matbaaic" should be changed to "Matbaic" in its name :P

Although the actual name for the nation on the key was the "Ecumenical Synody of Matbaa" anyway :wink:

In the logging system it lists nations by that name alphabetically, it's far easier therefore to have it listed that way around :P

Have "Matbaa (E.S.)" then, that'd make the most sense :P
