Ufa and Samara

[unmerged(21539)]

I noticed that in 1419_ste.inc the names of Ufa and Samara are switched.

I mean, we have in 1419_ste.inc

city = { fortress = { level = 1 }
population = 2000
location = 453
name = "Samara"
}
city = { fortress = { level = 1 }
population = 4500
location = 454
name = "Ufa"
}

while in province.csv we have

453;Ufa;inland;....
454;Samara;inland;....

Is this a typo ?

Its likely that someone who didn't like that the two cities/provinces are juxtaposed from real life and so swapped the cities to have some sense of accuracy.

China has the same problem I belive with Xinjiang and Sichuan I believe.

IMO we should follow the map when it comes to province names. In this case it's only city names, but still confusing with city Samara in Ufa and city Ufa in Samara. But then, I don't now much about the geography of the area IRL.

Those are province names not city names. That's much worse. I'd prefer to come up with 'neutral' city names rather than have this level of confusion.

That would be the best.
