To get the meme bear, you need to have Polish troops in Iran first. Then the bear would appear in your army as a general. Then you take Moscow as Poland which will dig up documents showing all the Romanovs were killed, so that's the place where you'll discover your Queen is a fake. Then you'll have the option to choose meme bear as king
