Authentic City Names - Age of Charlemagne

Inspired by the "Better City Names" mod for Rome II by SilentResident, I present: Authentic City Names for Age of Charlemagne! And if you like this, I have made versions for the Grand Campaign and The Last Roman as well.

This mod is pretty much what it says on the tin: better, more authentic city names for the campaign map and battles. While trying to come up with suggestions for Augustusng's "Authentic Faction Names" (which this mod should work well with), I got interested in the names for the cities themselves, and so I started trying to see how many of them were accurate. For the Grand Campaign, most of them were, but a number used names that were either too old or too new, not appropriate for the faction, designated a more minor city, or described an area rather than a specific city. As with The Last Roman, naming was more difficult, as it appears CA used a number of modern names that would still have been Latin or weren't appropriate for the culture. Unlike the previous two mods, most names changed. Where I could, I used the appropriate language for the faction:

• Franks: Old French and Old High German if I could find it, and apart from a few here and there, I avoided Latin
  
• Langobards: Latin for the most part, as the Langobardic language (derived from Proto-Germanic) had essentially died out by then
  
• British Isles: Anglo-Saxon for England, Old Irish/Scottish/Brythonic for Scotland and Ireland
  
• Slavs: Old Slavic or Old Church Slavonic where I could find it
  
• Brittany: Breton
  
• Andalusia: Arabic
  
• Theme of Sicily: Greek

If you'd like a mod that also does a good job in changing city names in AoC, with the added bonus of new faction names as well, I'd suggest checking out Darker99's "AoC Authentic AoC Names". There's a lot of overlap, probably because we used a lot of the same sources, but they did take a slightly different approach, particularly with Frankish city naming. Of course, using both at once will probably cause conflicts, so I leave the choice up to you.

This is for entertainment, as I am by no means a historian, archaeologist, or etymologist. These names came largely from online research, and as such could be subject to errors or biases found there. Neither changing a name nor leaving the vanilla version is meant to be a slight to any culture or nationality. That being said, if you have constructive criticism, feel free to let me know here and/or in the thread at TWC.
