Southern States

Alright folks, is there anyway to take the cities that are already in the cities file and mass change a country. IE, if I wanted to take the southern states and create a confederate nation is there any easy way to take all the cities that are in the south and put them in that nation?

Alright I think I figured out a rough way to do it although it will take a WHILE.

Just click on search and do each state, and manually edit each city in that state to become a part of the new nation.

With notepad you can just do a find/replace - I don't have the file here, but if a city's entry currently reads something like:

Birmingham,Alabama,206

where 206 is the USA country code, then you can set it to find all entrys of "Alabama,206" and replace with "Alabama,235" where 235 is the new country code.
