Change it to cairnswk suggestion. Also, you used "become" instead of "became", and that needs to be fixed as well. Also, I think you need to elaborate a little more, perhaps one more sentence on why they decided to do that, or the actual result of their agreement. Something like that.

"In 1992, the Czech and Slovak governments decided to divide the common state into two independent countries, the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic, and on January 1, 1993, the two countries were created." Using "became valid" implies that prior to Jan 1, 1993 it was invalid.

Oneyed. I am still seeing a story which says "...become to valid..."

Also, I think you need to elaborate a little more, perhaps one more sentence on why they decided to do that, or the actual result of their agreement. Something like that.

I actually don't beleive this is necessary to elaborate...if people want to find out more there is always Google or other search engines.
The map is about fragmentation of said country...it has bonuses for both republics...therefore the result must be that the state was divided :)

will care more about grammar ;)
I used during 1992 because it was long and complicated process. everything as finance, army... must be divided. and only in Jan 1, 1993 it was official and this is also date of creating new states Czech republic and Slovak republic.

so could we find any final version? thanks for help

See my edited post above. I think everyone understands that it was a complicated process and not something that was done in 1 day. "During" just doesn't sound right though.

I can't find cairnswk's version.

I like xraiders though:
"During the year 1992 the Czech and Slovak Governments made the decision to divide the common state. The dissolution took effect on January 1st, 1993."

"...to divide the common state."

And it's "dissolution". You have an extra "on" on the end of it. Why don't you just make it "division", since you use "divide" in the previous sentence?

Hello Oneyed/cairns,

I checked your XML and found an error.

On the map, it reads: Region and 2 towns inside its border, +4 for every 2 Kraj (similar to SR part of map).
In the XML, it stops at 2 Kraj. Are you not supposed to be given a +8 bonus if you have 4 Kraj?

Similar to capital: +1 for every 4 towns in CR, -1 for each Kraj in SR.
This bonus also stops at 4 towns and 1 Kraj. Should you not be given +2 for 8 towns in CR, and -2 for each Kraj in SR, held along with the capital? Example, if I hold Bratislava and 4 CR Kraj, according to current XML I get -2, but the way I read it you should get -4.

cairns could you check xml ones more? it looks that Giligan is right.
also borders for Praha are: Kladno, Beroun, Tábor, StČK
and borders for Bratislava are: Kúty, Trenčín, Nitra, ZSK

is it not clear that capital could be attacked from region it is located in and from towns in the same region and from towns adjacent by railway?

thanks Giligan
