I will try to recreate an international league I have in OOTP5. Twenty teams, with each division consisting of teams from a particular region.

The cities included Manila, Hanoi, Beijing, Pyongyang, Ottawa, Havana, Moscow, Brussels, Paris, Budapest, Niamey, Addis Ababa, Accra...etc etc...just cities I happen to be interested in for one reason or another.

In my OOTP5 international league I spent a lot of time getting the player names right. But for the yearly draft it became too time consuming to go through every team, so I changed the name files each year so that all of the draftees would be of a particular nationality. One year, they were all Chinese. Another year, Hungarian. Etc. So, what with trading and the yearly draft, each team became increasingly diverse as the seasons went on.

It's fun to watch a league develop this way.

The other thing I will do right away is recreate my African League, probably with 30 teams.

EDIT:

I just copied my Global League from my archive CD to OOTP5 and actually it looked like this:

Western League

Div 1
Windsor Rockets
Sudbury Bluegills
Edmonton Miners
Yellowknife Panthers

Div 2
Havana Angels
Cochabamba Sugar Lords
Tegucigalpa Suns
Santo Domingo Mantas

Div 3
Tucson Armadillos
Anchorage Kodiaks
New Haven Lobstermen
Boyne City Oxen

Eastern League

Div 1
Istanbul Ataturks
Budapest Quasars
Antwerp Gnomes
Moscow Red Stars

Div 2
Harare Gazelles
Tripoli Scorpions
Niamey Meerkats
Accra Super Lions

Div 3
Shanghai Dragons
Hanoi Goldfish
Pyongyang Red Giants
Manila Bayay Kubo

Tomorrow evening this league will be running in OOTP9.
