I think the most correct name for Venice-Genoa would be something like "Mediterranean Union", officially "Most Serene Republic of the Mediterranean". The 'Serene Doge' title could be a rotative title between the five Consuls of the Pentharchy: Genoa, Venice, Naples, Western Mediterranean and...

The protectorates of Goudkust and Meleguet Kaap, subsidiaries to Vrijland*. In the early colonial period, the Frankish government tried to exile the Dutch* minorities to Africa, as well as to the New World. The dutch population in these african colonies was rather small, but the irredentist...

Good question! Sardinia: Gules, a cross of argent (like OTL Savoy) Aragon: Or, four pallets of gules (like OTL) Africa: no idea. I like Or and Azure to represent it, though. Lombardia: Argent, a cross of Gules (like OTL Genoa) The coat-of-arms of the Caramello is not well defined, but it...

Could I get a flag or a coat-of-arms for my current nation on Crusader Kings II? I started with a custom family (the Caramello) on the county of Saluzzo, and I got the Kingdom of (Piedmont-Liguria-)Sardinia, the Kingdom of Africa, the Crown of Aragon and pretty much all of Lombardy, as well...

For Spanish, you're actually right, it was my mistake - what I said is only valid for Portuguese, directly. In Spanish, the given name related to James is Diego, not Tiago; when translating foreign names (for example, King James), Jacobo is used; and Santiago is restricted to the saint...

Added/corrected many portuguese names, and a spanish one: 'Tiago' is the main form of James in both Portuguese and Spanish. "Santiago" is Saint James, for example. Here's the updated file. EDIT: the file has been corrected. Thank you The Professor for poiting it out!

While both "La Plata" and "Argentina" come from spanish/latin words for Silver(Plata and Argentum, respect.), there wasn't any silver in the river per se. It was called that because they used the said river in their expeditions looking for the Silver, which was actually in Bolivia. That way...

Maybe the lion could be further stylized, keeping only the head and the wings? edit: and darker tones of red and yellow, as the plain colours are somewhat too bright.

Revolutionary Republic of the Baleares And what about this one:

It's continuous; its size has been already explained; most of its lands are quite 'bad' for agriculture etc; and it's smaller than the Aristogogic Collective. I can't complain.

Claiming... --- Republic of Tupi-Parana, the newest battle field between the Paleo-Envirnonamentalists and the Aristogogics. They are so divided, and each side loves so much their sides, that they will be unpleasantly surprised when they discover that none of the ideologies will solve none...

South Briania, simple as that. This will be the first of the last ~3 MC in which both Americas have the same name. Or Austral Briania, to give it a little alternative'ness.

Sounds fair. (but it does not look like Texas anymore... that's actually good, IMO lol)

Oh, sorry, here's the map:

My proposal on the border: -The Aristogogics would have kept the Great Lakes region, you probably agree with this. -It would be too hard to cross and control this amount of lands from the Western coast of Canada -The borders in the north are, ironically, more natural as "strait" lines than...
