Little village made a huge town

I've noticed a returning mistake in your games (in Rise of Prussia and Napoleon's Campaigns to be specific) - the city of Lodz happens to be one of the biggest in Poland in both games when historically it was a village of about 400 persons at that time. I can't believe that you've never seen any complains about it but to a polish player this must be quite strange. It would be more proper to put a city of Zgierz in the place of Lodz but even then making it a city is not historical.
Please, hear my plea and fix this to provide more historical accuracy to your wonderful games.

Then we shall fix this for a next patch to the game. Thanks for the information. By the way, during Napoleonic years (around 1800's), was the city existing or still a village

I'm not sure about 1806 but others seem to be correct (I live in this city and know its history pretty well)
