* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: In real life, Codreanu and the legionaries were ''incredibly'' brutal and violent, even by the standards of the other fascist movements of the time. It's not for nothing that they're popularly associated with meathooks. Thankfully, the movement faltered due to Codreanu's death and was eventually crushed after being deprived of his vision and leadership. In Kaiserreich, they're Codreanu is not only still that only they're actually alive, but his movement is in a much more advantageous position of power thanks to Condreanu's survival.than it ever was in real life.

* DefectorFromDecadence: The entire reason the Pacific States of America break away is because, after [=MacArthur's=] coup, they feel that they're {{the only believer}}s left in America's founding Constitutional values of limited government under a liberal democracy. If [=MacArthur=] never stages a coup, they will remain loyal to the United States. All that said, while they carry forward America's values, they do not necessarily carry forward its strongly established two-party system and have political routes for all four liberal democratic ideologies.



* SelfImposedChallenge: To the USA player. Electing Olson, Garner, or Landon as President averts the PSA's secession, thus making it easier to concentrate forces against the AUS and CSA as well as giving you access to their resources, factories, and manpower. Electing Reed or Long, however, forces the Federal player to fight another faction and deprives them of the Pacific States' resources.

resources. That is to say nothing of the challenge of trying to restore American democracy ''as'' the Pacific States, who are by a significant margin the weakest faction in the Civil War.



* MultipleEndings: Russia is one of the few, if not, the only, nation that can take every possible path for a nation. You can be liberal democratic, an oligarchal democracy, a constitutional or absolute monarchy, a military dictatorship, fascist, democratic or popular front socialist and outright bring back the USSR. And then there are all the different leaders bringing in their own flavors to what was listed.
** Ironically, the only path Russia does NOT seem to be capable of is Stalin style Totalitarian Socialism, as its Totalists are Tukhachevsky's Trotskyists that are (relatively) benevolent domestically.

* {{Kaiserreich}}: With the victory in the First World War, the German Empire continued instead of becoming a republic and later a fascist dictatorship. And if they win the Second Weltkrieg this can continue indefinitely. Although the actual political structure of the Reich is more likely than not to change, for good (the 1937 or 1941 elections can continue the Kaiserreich's evolution into a more Westminster-style parliamentary monarchy by Wilhelm sticking to the post-Weltkrieg tradition of choosing a chancellor from the winning coalition despite being faced with a coalition whose ideology he dislikes) or ill (Kurt von Schleicher's scheming can undermine the Reichstag and set up a dictatorial junta).

* AssassinOutclassin: Huey Long can survive as many as three assassination attempts. First, before the game begins, Huey Long survives his historical assassination.

Third, if the AUS wins the Second American Civil War, Pelley will attempt to have Long assassinated so that he can seize power, and this too can fail (success is determined by the AUS player).

** There is also that many in the CSA -- including Reed himself -- ''are'' willing to compromise (accepting relatively limited Social Democratic reforms if they fail to win the presidency, and potentially excepting industries from their nationalization programme to accommodate regions like California if Reed wins the election), with it being other factions that screw it up (Long escalates matters to a civil war if Olson doesn't assassinate him, Garner isn't willing to negotiate, and [=MacArthur=] coups the US no matter how moderate a Reed presidency goes).

* TheResenter: Besides their hatred of the Internationale, Canada and the rest of the Entente refuse to trade with South Africa at the start due to the Boers leaving the Empire, unless they choose to reach out for help following Black Monday or the Dominionist Party comes to power, dislike Ireland (unless the Irish decide to align with them) for similar reasons (especially because they took over Ulster), and they do their best to minimise trade with Germany, still being understandably bitter about losing the Weltkrieg. That last one ends up working in their favour, as the nations of the Entente end up being completely unaffected by Black Monday.
