we should see what the result is first anyway. my suggestions-
the simple *[First] French Campaign*
the more eloquent *Expedition to Paris*
the subtle *Rendezvous in Marseille*

YAW
Yet Another War

Can be followed by:
YAWn
Yet Another War (agaiN)

** not trying to say anything negative about our wars, just like the name .

Actually, I'm not sure if this wouldn't be better for the next war... if it's not liked here, I'll probably float it for that one, since then there'd have been enough wars to warrent the name .

I loved the animation for 'Rendezvous in Marseilles'. For some reason it particularly reminded me of Hitchcock's 'North by Northwest'.

I like a Frog Too Far, but hopefully we won't have to use it.

Bah, don't try too hard to name these officially. Eventually a name will just come along and it will stick.

Well, it got alot more interesting. Should this all go under one name or name it for each opponent?



The Great W.O.N.?
Joan's desperate plea?
Berlin's Bungle?
France's Folly?
Persia's Pennance?

hehe the doomed war? I consider the french war already won. The only way they can break even is taking their cities back. What's going on in the east is an entirely different war. I submit that one be called the War of Disdeeds, War of Confusion, or War of Lack of Information.

EDIT:
war of MISdeeds that is

Why not:

The First Coalition (spelling) War.

The Grand War of Freedom (from our enemies)

The Great War of Aggression (the other sides name for it)

The Surprising War (were YOU not surprised?)

Well from the way it's going, it should be something to speak to the fact that it branched out waaay past what we expected.

Maybe, The Northern Continent War. or just the continental war... all depends on how much it branches out.

if it stays as france, germany, persia vs. just us, then it could be the One-sided War.

Given that Joan got 2 of our neihbors to declare war on us for 100 and something frog disks, how about the War of French Prostitution

Seriously, I like The Unnescessary War, it may of been best for Apolytonia, but there was no way it was a war of "Necessity"

But since you won't use "negative" names, how about simply "The French Annexation", assuming we win

Edit: Unless if you mean by "war" the entire regional conflict including greece's wars. (hopefully it remains 2 seperate conflicts though unless we do the bribing ) In which case, you might just call it the war of Albania Major. At least I guess thats what we'd call our region since Rome/Russia etc are in Albania minor, or something close to that

OK, I am shutting this down as it is obvious not just France anymore and I will wait to see what all falls out. I wouldn't be surprised to see a few more AI's taking sides here shortly. So, we will wait and name the Whole mess later.

We should at least come up with a name for the war between Greece and England + Aztecs (and future allies in both sides).

I don't think it's going to be much of a war. It'll probably be the "Quick Skirmish"
