Region "Turnhout" is wrong

The city of Turnhout, where I happen to live, is well East of Antwerp. It is inside what WoN calls Hasselt. Right now WoN's Turnhout is southwest of Antwerp, directly south of Ghent.
I think you guys meant to name it "Tournai" (Flemish Doornik).

To do that PhilThip would be a mistake, please do your reseach :D The city of Turnhout was not intended to be Tournai (or Doornick) by the game map developer. Tournai is further to the south close near the French border about 25 km east of Lille. I have discovered what the issue is. At the relevant spot on the game map, south of Gent (Gand) and Brugge, in real it's about 20 km south south-west of Brugge (Bruges) east south-east of Nieuwpoort (Nieuport) and indeed north-east of Ieper (Ypres) there is a village having the name Torhout, on the map wrongly presented as Turnhout. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torhout

May-be it's a better idea to rename that province in Torhout.. or using a better known city as Roeselare (in French Roulers).
