@Araiguma well I'm Brazilian as well and I prefer the modern flag (and I dislike the royal family so that's extra negative points imo lol)

I'm sorry but as a Brazilian I prefer the royal flag much more. It's so much more beautiful
And as SJW said it's the one from the time of Pedro II
I hope he does not change it cause I find the modern Brazilian flag very ugly and the only way that I can play as Brazil is with this mod

@Da SJW but that symbol alone is not that recognizable.

@Juan D'Usami I think the change to the icon is to reflect that you're NOT playing as modern Brazil, but as the historical Brazlian Empire that Pedro II led

这个mod用更准确的历史变体取代了许多文明和城邦图标,同时与主要的BCI mod相比,保留了更香草的感觉。一些香草图标经过调整或大胆设计,看起来更清新。

Why change Brazil's icon? The official one was way more recognizable, especially if you never played Civ 5 (which I assume is where you got the one in this mod from/based it on)

Fantastic.

Is there a way to swap certain icons from the base mod to the lite one?, I love all the lite icons but Babylon's default icon is a bit too silly for me and I prefer the base mod's version of Babylon's icon.

Total War Attila somewhat solves the religious aspect by showing Western Roman Empire with an eagle on red background - not Christian but still used by Romans centuries after their conversion to Christianity - and Eastern Roman Empire with a two-headed eagle on purple background - most likely not even Roman in origin but adopted by Romans as hereditary archaic Asian (Trojan?) symbol of state power, most likely without Romans even knowing the exact meaning Trojans/Hittites intended behind the picture

on the other hand Jadwiga literally talks about Lord God to the player even if her civilisation doesn't know the concept of a deity yet so I guess concerning yourself with the principle of only using religion-independent iconography is useless because the leaders ruin the immersion themselves as soon as they start talking, so yeah. Eagle of Zeus is indeed pretty much the Ancient Greek equivalent of the pigeon in Christianity or the crescent in Carthaginian culture but it's probably the only cultural image both Athens and Sparta could be easily associated with
