I'm working on making an event that changes the name of a party, though after the event fires (the option text works fine, "party will now be called...) the party name doesn't actually change.

promote_character = {

**character = "DEN\_emil\_piper"**

**ideology = soc\_conservative**

}

set_party_name = {

**ideology = social\_conservative**

**long\_name = DEN\_conservative\_new\_long**

**name = DEN\_conservative\_new**

}

I have the name of the party at the appropriate localization keys, long and normal. Do you have any tips?

I'm writing this for a larger TL, so right off the bat, there is no threat of an American intervention immediately being decisive. I can elaborate on this if anyone would like. PD is way back in 1783.
Essentially, a larger Patriote movement is more rigorously put down by the British and to a lesser extent Anglo-Canadians, confederation of Canada happens much later as a second attempt at the "province of Canada" thing, the Long Depression lasts slightly longer, Wilfrid Laurier's compromises largely fail, his party breaks with him earlier, and ultimately the martial law declaration escalates into a province-wide insurrection, supported moderately by figures like Laurier and Bourassa and more radically Lionel Groulx. Could any other factors improve the chance of the event escalating? Would Canada accept the outcome to avoid a full civil war, and how would such negotiations go? Or would it very likely end badly?
