Thus, to introduce "underricu" in place of "ricu" is a mistranslation. --[[User:Walda|Walda]] 23:36, 23 Sér 2005 (UTC)

You make a good case, and this is worth reconsidering. I believe the primary motivation for 'underrícu' was (as from reflecting the current political reality), that we were then using "Ríce" for 'kingdom.
 
It became difficult to distinguish "Geánlǽht Ríce" ('United Kingdom') from "Geánlǽht Rícu" ('United States'), especially in inflection. We now use 'Cýneríce' for 'Kingdom' in this case, but we should think about what exactly we are pressing 'ríce' into service for, and if maybe some other word wouldn't be better for 'state'.
 
In any case, when proposing a change in name of a major page like this, which is linked from lots of other articles, please allow some time for discussion before going ahead and making the change. I've reverted your changes for now. Let's see what people have to say. I myself am now convinced that "underríce" is not the right word for 'state'. --[[User:Saforrest|Saforrest]] 11:30, 24 Sér 2005 (UTC)
