​@@TheoneanduniqueAubergine8622there has been an active Rework for Austria and her constituencies for a long time now. There is a confirmed PR in the works, but it's unclear how much work has actually been done. The devs still haven't decided if Slovakia will get a focus tree for example. Doesn't help that the lead dev is apparently very tight-lipped about decisions to the rest of the team.

The thing I dislike the most about the germany rework is that the mitteleuropa time between elections is too long and also feels like I was just sitting around after a while just waiting for 1940 or something to role around to be able to do the war with France focus. Mainly because I got into a war with the Entente by 1938 thanks to Two Sicilies.

[@RogueAgent007]

Initially I hated it, but after a few tries I came around. So on my THIRD playthru, disabling the dumb card game and studying how to balance the politics, this focus tree is in-fact, quite awesome, well-made, and lengthy. My only remaining complaint is the shear amount of pop-up events gets ANNOYING.

For those who don’t know, Kurt von Shliecer (I can’t spell his name) played a decent role in bringing Hitler to power by manipulating Germany’s politics as chancellor of the reichstag. This ultimately backfired as Hitler grew too powerful for him to control. He was assassinated on the Night of the long knives in 1934.

@Almirante1741 unfortunately you are mentally difficient. Reread my comment and realize that your response has no business being so out of place as it is now. It has nothing to do with what I said.

Because it certainly looks like it 😂 I understand you probably didn't hit puberty yet, but you need to feel stoic at times, young fella. Otherwise, life will be tough for you.

[@MeinungMann]

@@guyfromcollege but democratic Republic does? I honestly don't think that the aim of this joke was to poke at how minorities were treated in Russian empire because that's hell of a niche thing to joke about. I don't think that this is what you were really referring to when you were telling that joke. Especially knowing that in this play Russia was a democracy, so the joke, quite frankly, makes even less sense now. However I would much rather believe that this joke was direct product of mainstream media's efforts in which they did their best to present Russia as synonym to a devil. And now, as a result, people start making jokes villainizing Russia even if it doesn't make any sense or isn't truthful in any regard. Just the fact that the joke pokes at Russia is now enough to make it a good joke. Joke doesn't need to contain bitter truth, make any sense or even be funny. The fact that it is poking at Russia makes it good enough. In the end, Im just pointing out what I believe is out-of-place and what deserves calling out. And this is exactly what I'm doing. No hard feelings though. I just don't find the joke about Russia's minorities in such context to make any sense or even have any relevance. Like, why make up something when there is already enough real things? Don't lay it on thick.

In this timeline Russia can go in any political direction and while I’m bad at listening I’m pretty sure they went either nationalist or fascist (not known for respecting minorities)
