Shouldn't this be called "Unified German Republic", as per the original Xbox.com timeline? It's also interesting to note that the armor selection screens in ''Halo 3'' and ''Reach'' call it "Deutschland" (much like Korea is called Hanguk); I wouldn't be surprised if some countries were referred to by their own names by the 26th century. Still, if this is about the country from the Halo universe perspective, it should be named accordingly. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 22:53, July 25, 2010 (UTC) | Shouldn't this be called "Unified German Republic", as per the original Xbox.com timeline?

::Overall, I think it's not exactly the best idea to use the complete, formal modern-day name for every country for a variety of reasons, the most notable being that we have no idea if the countries are similarly organized in the future. We know that the old concept of national states has collapsed long ago, so many countries would most likely not retain their current-day names, if they exist at all.

We know that the old concept of national states has collapsed long ago, so many countries would most likely not retain their current-day names, if they exist at all. In my opinion, we should just call [[Republic of Kenya]] "Kenya", Arab Republic of Egypt "Egypt" and so on, to avoid the possible misconception that the countries still exist the way they do today, when that's clearly not the case. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 00:25, July 26, 2010 (UTC) | ||

:Not especially. That's like saying Canada and Mexico are in the United States of America, because of the word "united" (setting aside the [[Unified Republic of North America|URNA]] where this is made explicit). I mean, it is ''possible'', what with whatever shifting of borders has probably happened during the next five centuries, but I don't think the name is enough to go on. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 21:13, 21 October 2014 (EDT) | |||
