Endonymia
Endonymia v0.1
Updated to 1.14.5
This mod changes all States and Victory Points to the names used by the controlling government in 1936. Additionally cities and states will be automatically renamed when another country conquers it or when the ruling ideology changes.
Do you get annoyed when your empire still uses the names of cities and states before the conquest?
Want your German Reich or Greater Poland to rename all the cities in the realm to their language?
Frustrated at the limited translation of names by paradox in only a few decisions and events?
Then Endonymia has you, the map nerd, covered!
Features:

616/969 States implemented
3215 unique renaming entries
Most languages and nations have only translations for provinces with cores, in their neighbourhood or historical territories.
Note that some translated names are very literal or theoretical
In absence of a unique translated name for a state it will revert back to the English/common form
I have been working on this project off and on for several years to optimise my immersion and it may be updated sporadically, it should remain working on existing provinces and cities.
Future content: China, South America, North America
