Are you able to produce an Ancient Egyptian translation of 'Esinsundu Empire'? The Nation Renaming Guide states that Hawu's name should be in that language.

Yes we can translate it. However, we're requesting a RP-justification exception due to the historicity of the empire's name in-game. It's always been known as 'Esinsundu Empire' and the nations have historically changed their names to match so that they're easily identifiable as one country. If we translate it into local languages for each nation, it would defeat the purpose of changing the names to match.

What about using "ḥꜥȝsu Mnhs (Esinsundu Empire, Hawu Mumenhes)" or is that not clear enough?

What? I thought your issue was with "Esinsundu Empire" not being translated to Ancient Egyptian. ḥꜥȝsu Mnhs is just a transliteration of Hawu Mumenhes. Your Naming Guide says the Core Name of the nation (Hawu Mumenhes) can be in English with Roman script. So I don't see how moving the transliterated version around fixes anything for you. On the other hand, it complicates things for us because the countries were historically called "Esinsundu Empire (core name of country)," and Talmoria still is. If the order of the words is changed, it not only makes it not clear enough, it again defeats the purpose of renaming the countries.

I don't understand why you're over-complicating this. If you've already decided to let us use "Esinsundu Empire" in Zulu/English, then the order doesn't matter according to your Game Rules. But if you're not gonna let us use the Zulu/English, we'd just go back to our regular names since translating "Esinsundu Empire" into local languages won't help anyone identify us as a single entity.
