Achilleus Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 I was wondering if it would be possible to change my nation's name from "Mycenae" to "United States"? The nation name has finally opened up, but I do not want to delete my nation and start over with another one, so perhaps my current nation's name could be changed. I'm sure there must be something that an administrator can do to alter national specifics. Could I please be allowed the change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus Wilding Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 As far as I know, nation names have never been changed, and only deletion would allow a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilleus Posted July 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Well, if it is possible from a technical perspective, I see no reason not to allow it to be changed. I'm sure my nation can be accessed and edited by moderators/administrators, so I don't think a name change would prove a great difficulty. If there is some rule, perhaps I could be the one and only exception to it . . . please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xoindotnler Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 It would screw up the name everywhere (recent aid, trades, sanctions etc) as it is stored separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, nobody really cares about or looks at those things, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merovingian Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 It really probably will not happen. It causes a lot of trouble, and many people would be asking for such a thing. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hecate Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 As it has already been stated, it is possible but we do not change nation names upon request. The only way to change your nation name is to delete and recreate. Question answered, locking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
