    Some corrections for descriptions that are already in 2.3 (mostly typos), noticed them while playing. Don't know if it makes sense to mention the line because of the formatting, so I'm putting them out in a somewhat general fashion.

    As a side note - I wish I had thought of that earlier, but if any of the writers has questions about the native fauna (also flora, to a lesser degree) of any of the regions, they can ask me. Copying this onto TWC so that more people are aware.


    Aruernusela

    Replace "Eurasian bear" (not a species, unless someone were to split off the American sspp. of that taxon) with Brown Bear (capitalized for clarity because it's a specific species. I know Wikipedia doesn't do that, but **** them).


    Boiotergion

    The text (intro, IIRC) mentions "fertile, barely filled" plains. Pretty sure the writer meant barley.
    Later on, it says "There's is a fertile land [...]" (or something). Definitely a typo (probably f---ing autocorrect), replace "There's" with Theirs.
    Then there's a mention of "pine martins" in the geography section, also a typo. A martin with "i" is a type of swallow, whereas the writer wanted to refer to a mustelid (Martes martes). Replace with Pine Martens (see above).
    Lastly, the text mentions "viereckschanzen". This word should be capitalized, as it's archaeological jargon directly lifted from German. All German nouns are capitalized.


    Wenetwa

    There's a line in the introduction saying "[...] from dust till dawn [...]". Obviously, the writer meant dusk.
    Later on, "flocks of duck, geese, swan, crane, and storks" are mentioned. Ducks, swans, cranes should be pluralized. Probably a typo, too.
