Why does "Aksumite Unique" use an adjective, while "Maurya" "Maya" "Inca" uniques do not?

I do sorta agree on Mississippi, it does feel a little weird to me though. Hard to explain. I can probably change it.

As for Inca (and also relatedly Maya, which I forgot to change) it's complicated. Inca vs Incan as adjectives are both correct with distinct use cases, but I don't really want to get too into the weeds changing entries on a case-by-case basis so I mostly just went with the one I prefer.

As for Maurya, yes "Mauryan" is a standard accepted adjective form, but it's not the exclusively used one. My reasoning in this case is the fact its a dynastic name, and Civ 7 is inconsistent with how it handles these. For example, Chola doesn't use *Cholan* as an adjective, despite my cursory search turning up that form a few times.

To sum it up, I mostly made these decisions based on personal preference, without putting in straight-up wrong replacements.

Didn't realise how badly I needed that Normandy rename until this mod

I think "Mississippi" would work best for Mississippi, no? I agree it shouldn't use the adjective as the civ name, but using an alt-hist name seems like creating a different problem. Also, isn't changing "Aksum Unique" into its adjective form but Mauryan and Incan to their noun forms still an inconsistency?

I like the other changes though. French Empire and Meiji Japan bug the hell out of me.
