It is time we prepare for a bright future, I think. A future...where every man's a king.

That isn't the American way you Commie!
Hm... wouldn't it be Syndie, not Commie?
There still USSR though or no?
No, Russia is pretty much an Autocratic nation. There is an event chain for a later Russian Revolution, although I've never seen the USSR survive long before being engulfed back into russia. Practically all of eastern european is heavily imperialistic, and it would be very hard for a communist uprising to succeed.

If possible, I'd like to propose a Policy of Full on Weapons research, so as to allow American soldiers to Fight better, Defend Longer, and to Provide an edge against future enemies, or to be used as a bargaining chip, selling the weapons to allies such as Resistance groups in France, or in other Countries subjugated by the Kaiser's forces.
Kaiser...but he not a Commie  :-\
Then become allies with him!

May I ask, do you have a list of all the possible countries and so forth in this game? I am curious, but I am concerned that it will have a more narrow scope than hearts of iron III or something, a bit like napoleon focussing in on one conflict (in this case a number) rather than a big, sprawling campaign. For instance, can you still play micropowers like Liberia during the second world war?

Darkest Hours is basically a large-scale modification of Hearts of Iron 2, vastly improving it. You can play as practically any country in that general time-period, including micro-powers. It pretty much has the same scope as Hearts of Iron III, just a few different mechanics and whatnot.

Fantastic. So wait, there are also different countries and micropowers for the great war period?

Exactly.  And don't forget Einstein was born there, and missiles were invented there.

Yup, pretty much all of the countries existing during the Great War are playable. Although the mod I'm playing doesn't start at the Great War, but a few years after it. The vanilla game has a Great War scenario starting at 1914 and playable to somewhere in the early 50's I believe.

So does that mean I could go, say, post-WW1 Georgia? Or the Transcausasian Republic and such? Do you have a list of countries anywhere? I'm sorry to keep asking you, it's just very difficult to find that information on the internet.

Not with the standard ending date, though. You'll have to manually choose the end date settings.

I'm not entirely sure of all of the countries, as I've just recently forayed into Darkest Hour but I believe Georgia is available. I'm not entirely sure about the Transcausasian Republic, but there are a multitude of other nations. Although admittedly most of them would be rather boring, only having a few events and playing a micronation is basically just setting the game on very fast and tabbing out while doing something else for awhile.

Unless you play Serbia or some other soon-to-be-boned minor.

What is the hardest nation in the game to play, would you say? Including the micronations and so forth.
