In the rule Architected Cities, change the text
Each City may have a name, which is publicly tracked flavour text. Each City Architect may control up to one City; the Cities tracked by each Architect are publicly tracked. Whenever a City Architect would start to control a new City they may give it the name of their choosing, following the requirements set out for a legal player name in the rule Names.

Each City may have a name, which is publicly tracked flavour text. Each City Architect may control up to one City and each City may be controlled by exactly one City Architect; the Cities controlled by each City Architect are publicly tracked. Whenever a City Architect would start to control a new City they may give it the name of their choosing, following the requirements set out for a legal player name in the rule Names.
In the rule Regions, replace the text
Cities are grouped into Regions; all Regions and the Cities that they contain are publicly tracked.
with
Cities are grouped into Regions, with each City being contained in atmost one Region. All Regions are publicly tracked, as are the lists of which Cities are contained within a given Region.
Correcting the language in architected cities as suggested by JonathanDark on Discord. Also adding a sentence preventing multiple city architects from controlling the same city.
Even though the regions and the cities they contain are publicly tracked, it is ambiguous whether the containment itself is publicly tracked. Trying to fix the language to avoid another dynastic collapse because of orphan variables cropping up due to semantic issues.
Since this is my first proposal here, please correct me wherever I’ve made even the slightest of mistakes.
Edit: Incorporated suggestions by SingularByte to change the wording of the Regions rule.

You might want to be careful about the line “A Region is a publicly tracked list of Cities with no repeating entries”. I would probably be able to argue that the list of all cities in the game is a region by that definition, which would be messy.
Also, on a lesser note, you don’t need to prefix proposals with “Proposal:”, since the blog does that automatically for you.
