Cultural Protocol update for Endralon
#2
I do not mind the change of the Zergon people from Croats to Slovaks. That seems fine. 

I do however heavily object to the change of the name of the language and the people of Endralon from Syldavian to Endralonian. Endralon was initially based on the works of TinTins slavic-dutch-balkan nation of the same name. 

Secondly this retcon, like any retcon in Endralon CANNOT be made in my opinion without approval of the active player in NEK or without considering NEK, and vice versa. When Endralon became Hungarian NEK wasnt taken into consideration either a fatal flaw in my opinion. But that move didnt hurt as much and is quite sensible now, however this move GREATELY disrupts NEK. I should know,  i considering myself a New Endralon expert Tongue

Let me give some examples of why we should keep Syldavian:
1. The NEK dialect is called Zyldavian, its dirived from the Syldav language of Endralon as New Endralonians/Zyldavs are decendents of Endralonians/Syldavs. This has been game lore for ages. The name Zyldavia/Zyldavian/Zyldav makes little sense if Endralon changes the language name. 
2. One of the two Zyldav/New Endralonian provinces in NEK is called Zyldavia. It cannot be renamed Endralon as the other province is Endrafold. 
3. We have been using these terms for ages. Why the sudden change? 
4. As i said Endralon is based primarily on Syldavia from TinTin, its flag came from it (the black pelican on yellow that both Endraloj and New Endralon use) the motto of Endralon and New Endralon is based on it: "Here I Am, Here I stay!" And as I said its part of the naming scheme of pretty much all of the colonial stuff in NEK. Taking this away is further seperating Endralon from what it used to be. 
5. No plan was presented to resolve the canon issues that arise in New Endralon as a result of this, which is unreasonable and in my eyes enough ground to reject it entirely.

I'd rather Endralon adopt Zyldavian as the language name than change it and make it so that New Endralon has to retcon ALOT more as a result of it. So please reject it.
