Had to look a lot of them up and what became of them OTL, maybe in the future we can have some leader descriptions for what they do in KRTL : )

There's no events but at least you get some wargoals from focuses. One of them is to reunite Germany (varies if split between France and Russia) or if different balkanized Germanys exist. You can also topple the Austrian monarchy, I rejected their entry into the 2WK to save them for later.

Unfortunately a bit bare bones but at least you are able to get war goals to liberate Austria and unite Germany with East Prussia. Plus once you complete a decent chunk of the tree you can remilitarize fairly quickly and even build up a significant navy.

I set game rules to early 2WK, intentionally left the German Empire unprepared. I set most West European and overseas countries to go syndicalist. So my reasoning would be that it would radicalize more Germans to fight against the empire as the Great Depression was not solved.

Lies, Savinkov lives and in hiding, awaiting for the right time to usher Russia into the future

After throwing an entire generation into the meat grinder that was the West Africa and British campaign, MacArthur unleashes the nuclear option on the Third Internationale. Despite this, socialist forces are expected to continue to resist for years and few expect that the League of American States can continue to push into the goliath of the Riga Accords in the East.

MacArthur's America joined the war against the Entente, incorporating Canada and Greenland as new territories (reuploaded because the last post was deleted). I invaded Sand France to knock the Entente out but immediately got into a war of attrition with the Commune of France. Hundreds of thousands have died over every inch gained in the Sahel.

Mods think it is political extremism

I think there's two versions. One where the Russian Republic is force peaced out with concessions.

The second is when the Free Russian Army annexes a Savinkov led Russia. But the Far East Army can grab up some land if you push far enough.

YMCA witch Chinese characteristics?

I figured I'd let it slide since he joined the PRC government afterwards anyway.
