When it comes time to transition from one set to the next, I just go into the nation editor and change the drop-down. Not only does it work, but it's quick and simple, too.
I've actually been doing it this way for several versions now. The only difference this year is that I don't have to sacrifice something like Polynesian to get my new namesets in, and I can give them all the correct names, and don't have to keep a list anymore to remember that "Azerbaijani" is actually US 1930-1949...  |
It's what?
