Also...How great would it be if through some insane dice roll or something that the Union falls on July 4th?


Not as great as if the whole UK collapsed on that day.

Didn't the Union pull a massive victory in RL ACW on July 4th??


Gettysburg ended on July 3rd and the Siege of Vicksburg that finally locked the Mississippi down for the Union ended on the 4th. Fun fact: after the battle, the people of Vicksburg refused to celebrate the Fourth of July for nearly seventy years.

I thought it was only after the end of the Ottoman Empire that they officially began to call it Istanbul.

Is that the case? I always learned that pretty much as soon as they conquered it the name was changed...
Geee... Don't I look like a prick now...

@Conference Attendees, do you think you'll get posts up in the IC about it before the update?

Well, the city of Constantinople was attacked by Mehmed. And it has been called Istanbul since the 10th century. I got this statement for the wiki page of the Names of İstanbul:

"After the creation of the Republic of Turkey in 1923, the various alternative names besides İstanbul became obsolete in the Turkish language. With the Turkish Postal Service Law of March 28, 1930, the Turkish authorities officially requested foreigners to cease referring to the city with their traditional non-Turkish names (such as Constantinople, Tsarigrad, etc.) and to adopt Istanbul as the sole name also in their own languages.[15] Letters or packages sent to "Constantinople" instead of "Istanbul" were no longer delivered by Turkey's PTT, which contributed to the eventual worldwide adoption of the new name."

It's possible, but depends upon how quickly the other nations react in the PM. We still got 1 or 2 things to talk about/sign.

I'll get a reply up a little later. I don't have much left to discuss, so we should be in good shape.
