Currently a search on Warsaw does not find the Duchy of Warsaw, as it is listed within Poland under “Poland, Duchies of”, “Warszawa Duchy”. Can we please rename “Poland, Duchies of” to either “Warsaw, Duchy of” or “Warszawa, Duchy of” with a search for Warsaw finding this entity? No other Duchy appears in this section and it would match the style used for the Free Cities of Kraków and Danzig.

The Duchy of Warsaw also had the King of Saxony as its nominal ruler.

Hmm. 

 

Now we have 'Warszawa Duchy' as the title. 

“Poland › Poland, Duchies of • Warszawa Duchy”

This combines a Polish word with an English word to produce a title which doesn't sound good in either language.

 

Change it either to:

Wielkie Księstwo Warszawskie - Polish

or

Duchy of Warsaw - English

 

I would suggest using English to be consistent with the rest of the catalogue.

“Poland › Poland, Duchies of • Duchy of Warsaw”

I made the change but as always with issuers it takes 24 hours to be fully changed I think

I put Duchy of Warsaw in English

Or maybe you re talking about currency? It has indeed to be cleaned too, would you have infos on that?
