Civ is a product of time, not of original growth and settling from the beginnning of human civilization as all the others seem to be (to a certain degree, nobody is perfectly original).
As long as there are Civs with custom names, they can and probably should remove the Americans. It won't bother me. Maybe they should be the default race name for the civilization that forms whenever the English player gets a schism from having the capital captured

I think this is one of that tweak easy to do by Firaxis and very nice to see for the sake of "historic feeling".
Was suggested time ago: take original culture - proper Civ - then let the player change name every time his/her Civ have a main change, e.g. main terrain conquer, destroy of another Civ, change of government, etc. Lots of similar events should be added if "Rise and fall of Empire" concept will be implemented.

quote:
"Sir, we have annexed all cities from the Republic of Greek, now our German Sud East Province.
We can celebrate this victory renaming our Civ as -Empire of German Europe- " (name suggested, player can overwrite it
Choices: NO, keep our glorious name
YES, this is my will

I think is it flexible, more educative  because jounger players can realize their country didn't rule the world from the dawn of Civ (only Chinese have some point to believe this  ), funny for everyone - change name sometimes to better fit your Civ feeling can be great, but if you like to keep the same 'til the end, fine!
I'm afraid Firaxis will not implement this, not because of programming trouble, but because of marketing reasons: lot of players want his/her original country name on the box, careless if it never was an early Civilization.
Imagine on game box side and reviews Civ III feature include more than 100 different civilization to play with; now imagine Civ III feature include five civilization and minor tribe from start, evolving into many different civ as game advance ".
Do you think a company that still insist keeping Sid name on the title will do the later choice or the former ?
