You know what would be great? Custom national titles.
Instead of being known as "Roman Communism" (Which doesn't even sound grammatically correct) I wish I could have a more realistic name. Something like "People's Republic of Rome," or "Union of Roman Socialist Republics," or without stealing from actual countries, "Federal Dominion of Rome" (Yes, that's probably not what a socialist state would call themselves.) Just ANYTHING but "Roman Communism"!

Best of all would be to just let the player type in a name (Perhaps giving the player a default option and/or some suggestions.) This could be done at the start of the game and again at the government switch. I can't imagine this being terribly hard to integrate, but then again I'm not a programmer.

I'm going to give this a single bump. Mainly because the forums were down right after I posted it.

They had something like this in Civ 2, but with title names. But that's a good idea...

I second that, and I would like the male/female option back. I know they're put a lot of work into the nice animated portraits and stuff, but its kind of weird. They do let you change your title, but some things they don't. Thus, even though I'm King Glenn I, my troops are referred to as "her majesty's forces". Doh.
