Since my game is not (only) about villages, but building up an entire nation, I thought of changing the title to make it more appropriate.
“Nation Architect” and “Sovereign Architect” and “Sovereign Roads” are the other ideas.
Game concept: You play as a country leader, tasked with building up a country (either immortal president, or some form of AI).
You will need to plan roads and factories, then launch bidding process to see your blueprints get built. You will manage “teams”, which are generated by towns at certain milestones, specialize them and buy them vehicles. Eventually, relations with other countries will come into play as well.
A single badly-planned highway bridge is enough to bankrupt you, like irl for weaker economies.
I don’t like anything with ‘sovereign’ in it because it makes me think of the Sovereign Individual and the big tech people preaching it.
I’d probably think of Jargon of the industry, words, phrases, etc. that people use who work all that infrastructure stuff at the core of your game. And then hope they inspire something. Some games that make think of this, for example: Tropico, Anno, Satisfactory

Check out the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, and think of that instead the next time.
