Romania is spelled Romania, not Rumania. There is a country of Romania filled with Romanians, there are not any Rumanians. the world and Wikipedia call it Romania. In some future update, perhaps this can be corrected.

Well, this is a game with English language in a 1940s European setting, back then Romania was Rumania in English.

With all the Russian town names that you can spell in 10 different ways in the game, I think we shouldn't be nitpicking too much about the correct geography spelling

Well, in English there is no â.
As for the English variant of the name used (Rumania vs Romania): my understanding is that archaic spelling was chosen by the devs because they thought it better fits in the period depicted. As for me, I don't know what did the Englishmen use in 1940's...

In German it is called Rumänien.
Looks like we need a linguist here [:D]
