| Message | No objection here. Another suggestion would be "Voivodship" (or a word similar, which could apparently be "Palatinate" or something like that). Still nice and Mitteleuropa, but possibly a bit far from Imperial Vienna, although I believe the Dual Monarchy had Voivods/Voivodes. |

| Message | We much prefer Province to Crownland. |

| Message | Province lacks character though... Sub-Archonate? |

| Message | Sub-Archonate would only work if we keep Archon as the government title, which there's no guarantee we will. Governorate? Possibly a bit on the neutral side, but there are governorates all over the world. |

| Date | 23:03:41, February 25, 2008 CET | From | Christian Communist Party | To | Debating the Rebranding Bill V.3 Part 1: Regions |
| Message | The colonies are called territories so that wouldn't work |

| Message | GPRP, well it is reasonable to assume that any future proposal to change the tile of the HoS position from Archon to something else would contain an accompanying proposal to change the name of regions accordingly. |
| Date | 19:29:51, February 26, 2008 CET | From | Republican Coalition | To | Debating the Rebranding Bill V.3 Part 1: Regions |
| Message | Anyone else support Sub Archonate? If so I'll put this to vote. |

| Message | Territory sounds good, maybe Electorate? |
