Here I'd like to post my propositions for changing names of shires in the region of Poland and Prussia. I've based my research on the following links: http://www.szczecinek.org/images/mapy/Ortelius.jpg ; http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/23/Lubinus_Pommernkarte_1.jpg en.wikipedia.org and on my own knowledge. Here are my propositions:

Shire 226 (Masowien) should be Gdansk
Shire 225 (Prussen) should be Warmia
Shire 237 (Kujawy) should be Kaszuby
Shire 238 (Wolyn) should be Mazovia
Shire 229 (Pozen) should be Wielkopolska
Shire 230 (Schlesien) should be Silesia
Shire 227 (Kasziby) should be Pomorze or Pomerania
Shire 228 (Pomorze) should be Stetinum

Maybe some of you guys can see mistakes in the names of other shires in the world of Knights-Honor? If so, I think this would be a great place to post them.

Cheers,
Janusz

The shires on the "italian boot":
#100 Ravenna (like it is now)
#101 found only a town in the south of Rome and the Apennine Mountains (but those span whole Italy from north to south)... I don't know why the shire way called so, maybe we should just keep it
#102 Tuscany
#103 Florence
#104 Marche (like it is now)
#105 Rome
#106 Naples
#107 Abruzzo (like it is now)
#108 Campania (like it is now)
#109 Apulia
#110 Calabria

.... because it is much less work for me (I think there will be more then this 20 shires which I have to rename.....)

Sure . Then let's wait, if everything's gonna be fine, then I'll prepare these for you.

The following shires should be renamed. I also based by research on Wikipedia and on Romanian maps, plus I live in Romania so I know its geography, even historically:

Transylvania - Shire 371
Moldavia - Shire 370
Bessarabia - Shire 355
Sibiu - Shire 372
Carpathia or Carpathians - Shire 373 (note that such a region never existed and that Carpathians is the name of the mountains which run through Ukraine, Romania and go towards the Balkans)

Also, there are some geographic issues and not minor if I may say so.

The shires of Vrancea (shire 354), Dealurile (shire 351), Moldavia (shire 370) and Neamt (shire 353) are not positioned correctly.

First of all Transylvania should be allot bigger. In RL Sibiu and Karpaten is part of Transylvania.

Secondly, the shire of Neamt should be at the North-East of Transylvania, although in RL Neam is part of Moldavia.

Than, the shire of Vrancea should be further east and UNDER the shire of Moldavia, although in RL Vrancea is also part of Moldavia.

And Moldavia should be neighbors with Bessarabia with Bessarabia at its north-east.

The shire of Dealurile should either be right at the south-east of Transylvania or incorporated into it.

The shire of Vidin (shire 393) should be in place of the shire Kavuna (shire 396) since it was Vidin who had/has access to the Black Sea.

Also, if I may recommend that shire 373 to be renamed to Oradea, which is in about the same place and it is a real city which is old since the 10th century.

Oh and historycaly speaking the Capital of Bulgaria was never Olt.

I have some changes that should be made for England too :

fieldname++++fieldnumber

Kent++++35
Devon++++37
London++++36
Chester++++30
Cumbria++++28
Northumberland++++29
Wiltshire++++32

Not sure if i got the format you requested them in right , sorry and thank you in advance .

Maps consulted : http://www.flickr.com/photos/vagabondfcr/118350351/ ; http://www.itraveluk.co.uk/maps/england/ceremonial-counties-of-england-map.gif ; and Wikipedia .

This format will work for me....

@Alar:
There will be no other borders for the shires. You have to cope with the shires as they are now.
The only option is to rename them. So if you have the more or less correct names write them for me to change them.

It's ok, i knew the borders won't change, but i thought i should suggest it anyway. I know such a task would imply more work. As for the names, the way i wrote them is the correct way.

Since no one said anything against mine...

fieldname++++fieldnumber;

Tuscany++++102;
Florence++++103;
Rome++++105;
Naples++++106;
Apulia++++109;
Calabria++++110;
