Updated English names for regions, Round 2
Got some more English names to replace international names that are displaying instead of English names -- this should be pretty much everything:
Algeria: Alger > Algiers
Argentina: Perhaps we should have Buenos Aires > Buenos Aires (State); Federal District > Buenos Aires (City)
Bulgaria: Sofia-Grad > Sofia (City)
Iraq: Al Basrah > Basra, Ninawa > Nineveh
Mexico: the state of "Mexico" should perhaps be disambiguated from Mexico City and the country of Mexico as "Mexico (State)"
Portugal: Lisboa District > Lisbon District
Romania: Bucuresti > Bucharest
Russia: There is one region that is the first on the list, that doesn't have an English name at all! The flag looks like a copy of Krasnoyarski Krai's flag, but I'm not sure what it's supposed to be for.
Saudi Arabia: Madinah > Medina
Switzerland: Geneve > Geneva

Re: Updated English names for regions, Round 2
These region names have been updated, thanks.
The duplicate flag you are seeing on the missing regions list is a result of the region's FIPS code being changed after two other territories were merged into Krasnoyarskiy Kray.

Ah, okay.
It appears that Lisbon was missed, but looks good otherwise!

Estado de México.
In Mexico to differenciate we say EL DF for the CITY, EL Estado for the State and LA REPUBLICA for the Country.
