| Message | Considering our other national symbols and names, such as the double-headed eagle on our flag, we need something better than "region" to name the components of this Federal Republic. We suggest Mark, as it fits with our other symbols, adds another degree of uniqueness to our nation, and works better than other titles in the plural (as opposed to Communitys [sic], for example). |

| Message | I don't like this Mark, I suggest something like contry, conscription or terrirory |
| Date | 21:09:42, May 12, 2005 CET | From | Millennial Salvation Front | To | Debating the Federalism Act |
| Message | County and Territory will not form a proper plural. And Conscription? We are a Federal Republic, not a Military Prison as you would have us become. |

| Message | More like marca in Latin, or marche in French. |
| Date | 22:44:08, May 12, 2005 CET | From | National totalitarian union | To | Debating the Federalism Act |
| Message | ok but marche is a typical military territory of the mediavel time. It is a litle archaique, isn't? |
| Date | 23:34:28, May 12, 2005 CET | From | Millennial Salvation Front | To | Debating the Federalism Act |
| Message | Not necessarily. There's the Mark Brandenberg in the Federal Republic of Germany, for example. |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
