    What was frightening was that the original Prussian color -for clarity's sake* - was black. Thank goodness cooler heads prevailed.

    Ah. I went and looked it up and, although I thought they were originally black, it appears they went in for a navy blue (with white trim) in the Napoleonic era. That would just be for the infantry, of course. I dont even like to think of how people dressed their cavalry in this era. Some of their uniforms were really quite tasteless

    Did anyone notice that below Stockholm there was a little icon with people, and it had a '1.8 M' beside it. Is empire going to have realisic population amounts now? Is this new or am I just out of sync? And on the map, is the little blob to the far left Iceland? It's the same color as Norway, so thats what I thought.

    You are a little out of sync, but not by much. Yes the game uses realistic poplations now.

    And yes that is Iceland, in the game and belonging to Norway.
