I've just thought of something and I've been searching everywhere but I couldn't find a topic about this. Wouldn't it be much easier for people to search for nations or regions if it was all in alphabetical order? By that I mean that the numbers at the top of "The World" - 1...300...800 etc be replaced by letters A....Z to make it easier if you just wanted to look at the regions/nations beginning with the letter "M"

I agree that such a setup would be an improvement over the current one. I doubt it will be done, though. The admin are probably still patting themselves on the back for getting the coding for repeals done (and rightly so).

Because of the way data is stored in the game, it is not possible to come up with other dynamic methods of ordering it.

WTF? Seriously? I hope the other features of the system used for this game make up for the lack of flexibility.

Not much, however, this is something on my longterm todo list.
