For some reason that must be to do with the save type or hidden formatting it often doesn't seem to like you trying to write one from scratch. Or even sometimes typing in chunks from scratch. I got fed up with trying to work out why and just copy a working version like imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlement_names.txt, re-name it copy and paste chunks of the file and overwrite my info into existing brackets etc! Try copying and pasting your info to the bottom of a copy of an existing one and see if that works. Or using copy of existing one overwrite info for first few regions with your names and see if that gets you off error for region (0)

Only flaw in this suggestion is I think error you normally get when it can't read the text file is " can't find region .... in region DB ", but if you really have got rest of map files the same as before I can't think of anything else

(PS if anyone else knows why that file is difficult to edit could they please explain!)
Several (if not all) the files in text folder behave "strange" in some aspects. For example, I cannot compare them with KDiff3, as only symbols appear instead of normal text. This doesn't happen with any other txt file.
