[@rossstewart9475]

"Don't tell me Paradox didn't know exactly what they were doing when half of the flavour and focus around Greece involves paying off debt" Well... yes, that's largely the story of modern Greece's history over the last two hundred years: From being indebted to mercenaries from across Europe following their war of independence, to the International Financial Commission of the late 19th century, to the period of integration following the Treaty of Laussanne and a myriad of other catastrophic events with knock on economic effects the nation has endured; Being in the black is atypical for the southern Balkan state, and it's highly doubtful to be a nod to anything in the last fifty years, let alone the last twenty. Indeed, only those ignorant of the nation's history were surprised to see their most recent financial woes - and as a Brit, one would be most churlish to make jokes about such things, given that it's not so long past since we were referred to as "The Sick Man of Europe" and had to have the IMF step in ourselves... to say nothing of the potential prospect of it happening again in the not to distant future!
