The name.

[Erik Mortis]

Scott back in the Kaiser's court pointed out that naming this Shirithian Commonwealth.. or just putting Shireroth so prominently in the name would 1. make it seem just like self engrandizement and 2. keep anyone from joining.

I agree. And I have started having aspirations of making something potentially cool out of this. Thus. Do we want to keep this current name, or pick something a little more inviting but still cool.

Maybe put Benacia in the title instead. While it may be only the name of one continent, it is less specific and has historical precedence. The old Benacian Commonwealth.

[Andreas the Wise]

Shall we try to avoid historical references to failed organisations (especially "Grand Commonwealth")

The Shirerithian Equality non-Xenophobic Yodelers could be a sub-branch of the Commonwealth?

[Ryan]

How about Apollo Commonwealth?

*runs away from maddened mob*

[Jonas]

The Holy Imperial Commonwealth of Nations?

[Jonas]

Okay, some ideas:
- Imperial Commonwealth of Nations
- Shirithian Commonwealth of Nations
- Holy Shirithian Empire of Nations
- Imperial Shirithian Commonwealth of Nations
- Great Empire of Nations
- Holy Empire of Nations
- Holy Micran Empire of Nations

[Kaiser Loki III]

I kind of like Ari's Small Commonwealth. Goes with the tree-logo. Feels all warm and fuzzy.

[Jonas]

Oh. Did he want to name it like that? But what about Small Imperial Commonwealth?

[Jess]

I'm not joining if it mentions Shireroth at all

[Erik Mortis]

Isn't that a contradiction?

The Small Commonwealth is good I guess.. kinda plain.. but I guess that's the point.
