I have noticed some discrepancies between the following files:

Under imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlement_names.txt
(EB/data/text/)
{Petra} Petra
{Phasania} Phasania
{Phoinike} Phoinike
{Phraaspa} Phraaspa
{Phrygia} Phrygia
Take note of "Phoinike".

Also under DESCR_REGIONS.txt
(EB/data/world/maps/base/)
Phoinike
Sidon
egypt
Kena_ani
Take note of "Phoinike" is the same.

However under descr_regions_and_settlement_name_lookup.txt
(EB/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/)
Persis
Phasania
Phoenice
Phrygia
Pokr_Hayk
Notice "Phoenice" is spelt differently.

I am not knowledgeable about regions and map editing, but I believe these 3 text files should be connected to each other. I hope that someone could point out whether there is a mistake or it is okay to leave "Phoenice" as it is.
I manually edited "Phoenice" to "Phoinike" in descr_regions_and_settlement_name_lookup.txt and the campaign map / game is still able to load but I have not tried playing past any turns. (I also deleted map.rwm before starting the game)

Furthermore under descr_regions_and_settlement_name_lookup.txt
(EB/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/)
Lucarottea
Emain_Macha
Cydaus
Ynys_Mon
Serdike
"Cydaus" does not appear in the other 2 text files.
Again, I manually removed it and the game is also able to load.

There names between curly braces ({}) are quite separate from the display names. In fact
{celtic_fanatics} Ankyra would be easily accepted by the engine.

Did you try to rename the file so it does not exist by that filename? I think it is not in use by the game.

:wall::wall:

I renamed the descr_regions_and_settlement_name_lookup (under EB/data/world/maps/imperial_campaign/) since it was the only text file with the discrepancies and you are right, somehow this text file doesn't seem to be USED in anyway as I was still able to start a new campaign. (after deleting map.rwm)

Btw, I thought it was required because I was reading through some threads:
http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=33332
"7) Open descr_regions_and_settlement_name_lookup.txt. At the very bottom of this list, put the name of your province, and below that, the name of your settlement."

Aye, I just don't understand how it could happen but thanks anyway.
