Demo Game #3 - Names
We need to decide on a country name and a leader name appropriate to our military orientation for this game. And they should be short and simple so the game doesn't create weird statements when using them. Let's see some suggestions...
Just to start things off, I suggest we be "The People" or "The Force", led by "Drakul".
I'll set up a poll when we have some names to vote on.

I like Drakul for leader, but would vote for 'The Enslavers' for our tribe since this is what we're basicly going to do.

How about "Kim Jong-Il" and "Choson" as the leader and country?
Maybe we could be "The People" and have someone like "Marx" or "Lenin" or maybe "the Chairman" or something like that.

Being a bit of a sci fi affectionardo, excuse the spelling...
Something like 'Imperious Leader' tickles me. Holds ties the old games, but implies the empirical conquest of this current game

we could always be The Great Assimilator of the Apolyton Collective 
or for a Dr Who reference, The Great Exterminator of the Kaled race
just kind of in a sci fi frame of mind today it seems

OK, to combine a couple of ideas, how about we are the "Apolyton Imperium" (for warlike attitude) , led by the "Chosen One" (to reflect our elections)?

Apolyton Imperium has my vote. as does the Chosen One. Perhaps we could butcher Chosen One to Cho Sen Won

Oooh. Dr Who refs.
That would make the leader Ka Faraq Gatri (Destroyer of Worlds in Dalek/Kaled).
Otherwise, Chosen One of the Apolyton Imperium appeals.

Let's pick an adjective, too!
How about "relentless"?
(as in, "We have no need of your relentless maps" or "Greek civilization destroyed by relentless Apolytonia Imperium")
Or perhaps something ironic, like "charitable" or "smiling"...

"half-assed"?
"Greek civilization destroyed by half-assed Apolytonia Imperium"
Poor Greeks.
"self-important"?
"Greetings Chosen One, you are as ever the most self-important of us all" - or is that a different game?

I think a poll is needed, as some people are to shy to speak up unless there are closed elections. (But since we not yet know of emocracy we maybe should let the one with most posts decide )
