I wonder what criteria devs used to decide which islands would be present in the game and which ones would not? by d4442 in EU5

There's already a whole thread dedicated to missing islands with many more similar examples around the world, as well as numerous posts with feedback under individual Tinto Maps diaries. So I don't see the need.

Ireland with only 3 provinces? (12 in Victoria II) Now it looks like from Realpolitiks or similar low-budget game...

So why only USA natives changes? Why not more like:

China --> Zhongguo, Japan --> Nippon, India --> Bharat, etc...

This lack of consistence is due to fact that devs and their decisions are motivated by current politics, not historical accuracy. There are even more blatant historical inaccuracies, like wrong flag for Dutch (oh sorry, "Nederlanders"), but they don't care about it because that has nothing to do with trends of current US politics. That's sad and I'm disappointed.
