12.2 ALTERNATIVE COUNTRIES In World Empires you may choose different countries to the standard ones, provided you do so before the start of the game. The home area should be very close (immediately adjacent, if possible) to whichever "standard" country you want to replace. For example, you might choose to play Chile instead of Argentina, or Texas instead of Mexico, Thailand instead of Vietnam, Singapore instead of Indonesia, and so on. Whatever country you choose, make sure you do it when you send in your startup form. Once countries are allocated they cannot be changed. 12.3 MEDIEVAL EMPIRES There are normally 30 countries on the map at the start of the game. The standard country codes, home areas and names of the countries are as follows:- COUNTRIES TABLE
