<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drusus, post: 696725, member: 6370&quot;]I see what you mean. It seems to me to be up to the people who are in power and how they want to proceed after a dramatic switch. France has seen quite a few changes but the name France seems to be a general name for that country whether it is used with Imperial, Kingdom, or Republic...some variation of the name France was used. It seems to me there have been a lot of countries who have changed the style of government quite drastically but retained the same country name...maybe with a slight variation to denote a different form of government. I would think whether its a kingdom or a republic, to call it France would still be correct. Since Deutsches Reich seems to be, in essence, a way of saying Germany or German Domains, it would be the equivalent of a General country name like France since, if I am not mistaken, Geramny did not really exist before the formation of the German Reich. It was a loose group of individual Kingdoms, Duchies and the north German Confederation (itself a group of Duchies, kingdoms, principalities and a few free states) before.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
