Nothing against that. > The Crown of a Aragon was more of a loose empire than a nation. I'm against that for the same reason that we don't include all of Greece, Persia, Egypt, etc. in the Romans. And wouldn't include all of Greece, Persia, Egypt, etc. in Macedonian (even though Philip of Macedon conquered them all). And we shouldn't include Baghdad in American, either.... :-) If somebody puts together Aragonese and Castellan, let's keep them to the actual Aragonese and Castellan cultural areas. _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
