The mapping of historical names to modern names is, usually, many-to-one. Using modern names means fewer tags. Relevant historical names or time periods are likely to be mentioned in the text (or requested in the comments) to provide the necessary focus. Modern names are still a moving target (South Sudan, Cote d'Ivoire...) but only sporadically, so should be manageable. I guess there's still a question over modern local name versus modern English name, but that's another matter. | |
