The challenge is to play as Mongolia and retake all the lands the Mongol Empire used to own. It was the largest continuous land empire to ever exist in human history. Mongolia starts with 4 factories, 2 research slots and almost no manpower. Seems like it's going to be quite a bit of work.
Hearts of Iron IV Soviet Union challenge.
Rules:
- Play as Mongolia
- Take all the lands that were part of the Mongol Empire
- Ironman
What did I do wrong, what did I do right? What should my next challenge be, if any. Let me know in the comments.

Some guy in the New Mongol Empire: 'so how did we get to this point?' Another guy: it's very simple. We started as a communist dictatorship, allied the soviet Union, attacked the Chinese United front, became fascists at some point for no readily apparent reason, took more land in the Asia and the Middle East, then betrayed our ally, puppeted them, allied Germany, annexed our puppets, executed border 66, unallied our new ally so we could ally the allies, defeated Germany and won the war. Simple :)

He has said this would get him demonetized, so he is discouraged from doing something like Afghanistan takes the United States. Also, he has stated that he does not like challenges that forbid him from doing dimplomatic/political things (like joining factions) since they limit his creativity and politics is the funnest part of this game for him, as demonstrated from his playstyle and the fact that he has said it multiple times throughout his challenges.

Also, challenge idea: Restore the First French Empire - as France take Catalonia, Belgium, Holland, North Germany up to Schleswig-Holstein, Land west of the Rhine, Piedmont, Liguria, Tuscany, Latinum, Tyrol, Slovenia, Istria, Dalmatia and Zara. Puppet Germany, Poland, Switzerland and Italy. Good luck!

The moment you said Brazil starts 100% non-aligned i was kind of sad. (Unfortunatly) Before and during WW2, the people in Brazil supported the Reich with the dictator visiting mussolini and people going out in the streets to hunt jews. However Getulio Vargas, the guy u kicked out because he leads the non-aligned party, was a GENIUS when it came to politics, he managed to stay in power for 15 years in what became a dictatorship and then, after the military took him out he managed to get ELECTED. He spent 18 years in power and was only elected once and that was for the last three years, so im not surprised he would manage to make the country 100% Non-aligned.
