   I want to see the result of  Louvain method for community detection ( http://perso.uclouvain.be/vincent.blondel/research/louvain.html ). Before trying to make something arbitrary, let the code talk ! the links are directed, so I can apply various algos such as pagerank (like google :-D ). at least I can try ^^ 
adding confed + NAP to calculate pagerank of alliances can be fun too ...

	The web really is cool! Perhaps introducing some polygons for set and stated groupings like Crows, Night-Alliances and Consone and anchoring the mids a bit apart might disentangle the middle parts a bit?

	@dunnoob: yup, nexty step is to apply known algorithms (graph theory, using the good libs etc ...) to hilight communities. @aurordan: I set a default value to 140, you can change it in the right panel, then hit enter.

	Great, I always wanted to do something in this direction with the alliance data. It would be clearer if you use a different colour in clusters of four or more alliances, where each alliance is confederated with all others.

	nice - interesting to see. It would be cool if you could set 3 main node colors (H?, VIC, Crow for example) as (Blue, Yellow, Red) and then have each other node shaded a blend of those colors based on how many links they are from those three.

	Fun. I enjoyed pulling the Harmless? node and watching the rest of the nodes follow it around the screen. Edited by Aral - 12 Nov 2012 at 23:22

	I like it. How did you decide how long to make the lines? Or does it just shake out that way when you give it the connections?

	After watching the war, much complex is the peace. same rule than other graph, but for confeds. want to play interactively, zoom etc... ??? Go here : http://illyriad.jokair.info/tests/illy.peace.html scroll to zoom, you can drag a node to move it, you can stop the forces with the checkbox "Stop", change color...
