You'll make a certain real civil engineer upset by naming it architect and then having a engineer on the front. :)

Nation Engineer gets you away from some of the genetic architect slop (which often follows a successful game) and maybe draws a YouTuber into playing it.

Good luck with your game!

it turns out "country" has a double meaning in English

You mean how it's used to describe rural areas, too? It still works the way you expect it to, even under that definition. 🤷‍♂️

Or do you mean the genre of music? 🤔

Sounds more like a Civil Engineer than architect - e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isambard_Kingdom_Brunel who built countless bridges, railways, ships, tunnels etc…

Infrastruction or Infrastructor?

Is there any media link that isn’t to X? Many don’t like giving clicks to the Nazi social media stronghold.

I’d love to see your game!

EDIT: Your steam link was great.

I recommend simplifying it: Architect

This also leaves you open for sequels/expansions that may have a different theme than “country.”

I don't like anything with 'sovereign' in it because it makes me think of the Sovereign Individual and the big tech people preaching it.

I'd probably think of Jargon of the industry, words, phrases, etc. that people use who work all that infrastructure stuff at the core of your game. And then hope they inspire something. Some games that make think of this, for example: Tropico, Anno, Satisfactory

National Architect?

An Architect?

Building nations

Send me a key if you use it

It sounds very infrastructure/trade based than politics, so I'd stay away from nation/country terms. Regional Planning would be a generic term for the infrastructure piece, could use Commerce if trade is important. >

Birth of a Nation, Fledgling Nation

Edit: kind soul pointed out the shitty connotations of Birth of a Nation, definitely do not call it that!

How about ...

Masterplan Nation

Build of Nations

'Architectcracy.' Which is more or less, "rule by architects."

State Architect

Nation Building Authority Australia

Maybe... Nation Modernization

But if you call it that, you'll have to build out some scenarios for the player (either like stages or selectable by difficulty) where they have to solve the problems with your prebuilt nations. Of course you could keep a sandbox/start-from-scratch mode too.

AI Slop Architect?

Architects don't design countries. Town planners or Master planners do...
