I would like to start a petition to revert our name back to Mussolini. I think that our name is a marker in a time of strife in the kingdom, and should be embraced, not shoved to the side and forgotten.
Altho it is not the most flattering name, it's still the name which our king gave us.
All in favor?

Here in Italy that name is not much appreciated. It reminds us of twenty years of suffering and death brought by a merciless dicator. Thousands of people died and many are still suffering because of that period. In my opinion, it's like calling the German province "Hitler". I'm not sure I would feel comfortable about living in a province which bears the name of one of the greatest shames our country has had. That said, I leave the decision to my fellow citizens.

NO! Per quanto possa piacere a sua maestà il re trovo assurdo, improponibile ed inconcepibile destinare il nome di una provincia del regno ad un dittatore.Spero che il nome cambi in qualcosa di più civile. Scusate l'irruenza ma è il mio pensiero. Aggiungo che vorrei chiederò il trasferimento in un'altra provincia se il nome non cambierà.
NO! Although it may please His Majesty the King i finds it absurd, unthinkable and inconceivable allocate the name of a province of the kingdom to a dictator.I hope that the name change into something more civilized. Sorry but the impetuosity but is my thought.Add that I ask to transfer to another province if the name will not change

The name is Benito and used to be Mussolini until 2009 when it was changed for the reason you gave. I would be offended if the name were changed to Mussolini.

For the sake of example, Captain Taglheir, assume there was a coup d'etat and Talossa was left with a homophobic dictator who decided to rename our nation the "Kingdom of Faggot Burners and Homo Hunters". Would you advocate returning Talossa's name to something like that, on the grounds of historical significance?
