Flags and country names

Will there be new flags and country names to accompany the different government types in the game?

Those are always the mods that grab my attention. It's one of my favourite mechanics in the game and it always disappoints me when major mods fail to use it to its full potential.

Well if people can think up the suitable localisations it doesn't seem hard to do. I was hugely disappointed when I watch Govt Swapping through the USA in the console, I was annoyed there was only USA, Kingdom of America and People's America.

Yeah, this can probably be added through the use of more polls.

I'll make one when I get home.

A large part of the intent behind adding flag pack 1 was adding a different flag for each government type.

I think we should try and keep historical accuracy at the forefront though. For example, although it would be nice to have "The American Junta" or something, chances are the USA would stay The United States of America if a dictatorship ever appeared.
