| 11 | ->'''Official Name:''' Irish Republic, Irish Socialist Republic (Socialist), Kingdom of Ireland (Ó Néill), Gaelic Kingdom (Ó Néill, expansion), Irish State (Ó Cuinneagáin), Gaelic State (Ó Cuinneagáin, expansion), Dominion of Ireland (United Kingdom puppet state, Ireland keeps Northern Ireland) |

| 13 | ->'''Ideology:''' Authoritarian Democracy |
| 14 | Following the British defeat in the First Weltkrieg, Ireland seized the moment of weakness and launched a war of independance that lasted through 1921. A severely demoralized and and unenthusiastic Britain conceded and granted their Irish dominion full independance, though Northern Ireland maintained their seperate status to the United Kingdom. Just a few years later, the Revolution occurred that sent the royalist exiles to Canada as Britain was gripped by a Syndicalist government. Now with a wide ocean between them and their nominal home government, the Northern counties chose not to align with the new Union of Britain and petitioned for a peaceful annexation with Ireland. Negotiations with the Sinn Féin government followed, whereupon the counties were granted several legal protections that included a guaranteed number of Northern members in the ruling cabinet and prevented interference in Protestant institutions, a long list of concessions that became known as the Ulster Privileges. Though this would lead to simmering resentment from the Irish catholic majority, it's acceptance led to the first truly free and united Irish nation in centuries.\ |
| 15 | Now with the Atlantic dividing them from the British exiles and little desire to involve themselves with the Syndicalist Union of Britain, Ireland and Sinn Féin sought greater alignment with the German Empire. Access to Mitteleuropa and the German markets led to tremendous prosperity, but religious and cultural differences between the Ulster counties and the rest of the island have only been smothered, not extinguished. Catholic resentment over the Ulster Privileges continues to grow amid pushes to abolish them and extend equal law across all the isle, while Northern Ireland's protestant majority, completely isolated from other external support, grow increasingly paranoid that their legal and religious protections will be wiped out and they will become second-class citizens on their own island.\ |
| 16 | As 1936 rolls around, Ireland gears up for the most hotly-contested parliamentary election since unification as parties argue for greater ties to foreign powers or greater isolationism, and Catholics and Protestant groups clash to a more frequent and violent extent. And in the shadow of a Second Weltkrieg, Germany and the Union of Britain turn their gaze on Ireland. Sitting as it does on Britain's doorstep in immensely strategic territory, both nations seek to pull Ireland into their sphere, and after just two decades of freedom, the emerald isle may might themselves trading one master for another in the coming years. |
| 17 | ---- |
| 18 | * BetterTheDevilYouKnow: InvokedTrope by the focus leading Ireland to align with the Entente, and so with its former British overlords in exile in Canada. |
| 19 | * DemocracyIsBad: The Aontas Náisiúnta is disdainful of democracy and all of its paths will result in some form of authoritarianism. |
| 20 | * EnemyMine: Despite the historical enmity between Ireland and Britain, Ireland might choose to side with the exiled British government against their common enemy, the Union of Britain, in exchange for the UK recognising Ireland's independence. |
| 21 | * TheFederation: In order to appease the Protestant unionists in the Six Counties, Ireland can reform into a federation, with a parliament for each of the island's historic provinces. |
| 22 | * ICanRuleAlone: After the Aontas Náisiúnta takes power, the division between its two factions, Old Guard (formerly Parliamentarians, represented by President Eoin O'Duffy) and New Guard (formerly Abstentionists, represented by Príomh Áire Gearóid Ó Cuinneagáin), comes to the fore. If the Old Guard wins, O'Duffy successfully solidifies his rule and purges Ó Cuinneagáin; if the New Guard wins, Ó Cuinneagáin wrests the control of the party and country from O'Duffy. |
| 23 | * MiniGame: |
| 24 | ** In the “Ulster Comes First” minigame, Collins has six months to manage the recovery from Black Monday as the UDP asks for the northeast to be privileged while the country at large wants an even distribution of efforts. |
| 25 | ** The Gateway to the Atlantic mechanic represents a diplomatic tug-of-war between the German Empire and the Union of Britain, with Ireland in the middle. Starting from August 1936, for 18 months, Ireland will attempt to balance the influence of the Germans and the British, who both want to prevent the other from gaining control over Ireland's political, economic and military institutions, allowing Ireland to negotiate business opportunities and trade deals with Germany or Britain for the benefit of the Irish economy. If Ireland manages to balance German and British influences, nothing happens; otherwise, the existing Irish government will be overthrown by one friendly to the winner of the mechanic. |
| 26 | * MultipleEndings: Ireland is a multi-party democracy capable of following the full gamut of the political spectrum. |
| 27 | * OccupiersOutOfOurCountry: |
| 28 | ** In this timeline the Sinn Féin and their Irish Republican Army successfully won the independence of most of Ireland through force of arms. |
| 29 | ** Should the AN government fail to pacify the Loyalists of Ulster, they will start an armed uprising to separate themselves from Ireland. |
| 30 | ** Annexing Ireland as the Union of Britain or United Kingdom gives some harsh modifiers and recurring events to represent Irish resistance. Ireland can also have to deal with an Ulster unionist uprising backed by the resurgent United Kingdom. |
| 31 | * RegimeChange: If either Britain or Germany wins the Gateway of the Atlantic, the IRA successfully overthrows the unstable government; if Germany won, it has the choice to create a new bourgeois government, while if the Union of Britain won, the army will itself be overthrown by a socialist revolution. In both cases, the new Irish government is treated as a puppet of Germany or Britain, but can later prove its legitimacy and become an independent member of the Reichspakt or Third Internationale. |
| 32 | * RevolvingDoorRevolution: A British victory in the Gateway to the Atlantic tug-of-war with Germany results in the IRA overthrowing the incumbent government, only to find itself removed by a socialist revolution. |
| 33 | * SecretLevel: |
| 34 | ** [[spoiler:Ireland has the ability to join Japan's Co-Prosperity Sphere if it manages to remain independent and democratic while Germany is defeated and the Pacific States of America joined the Sphere and guarantee Ireland. Joining the Sphere unlocks a hidden part of Ireland's focus tree.]] |
| 35 | ** [[spoiler:Ireland may also join Russia's Moscow Accord if both nations are authoritarian, Germany is defeated and the Second American Civil War is over. Joining the Moscow Accord unlocks a hidden part of Ireland's focus tree, furthermore if Ireland is a kingdom and Russia is under Savinkov, then Ó Cuinneagáin will overthrow the monarchy and proclaim himself Ceannaire.]] |
| 36 | ** [[spoiler:If National Populist Ireland takes the two states of Lanark and Scottish Highlands, puppets Scotland, Wales and Brittany, it will be able to form the Celtic Confederation as a faction.]] |
| 37 | * StateSec: The Aontas Náisiúnta possesses a paramilitary arm known as the National Guard but colloquially known as the Blueshirts, in which the abstentionist wing of the party holds disproportionate influence. |
| 38 | * TimedMission: A non-centrist Ireland will receive timed missions representing the growing outrage of the loyalists in Ulster. If this fails, Northern Ireland will revolt--Dublin then has 150 days to take Belfast before the loyalists could secure independence. |

| 67 | * PuppetKing: In the rare case that Ireland finds itself in a Labour-[=CnaT=]-PLP coalition at the time of Britain’s victory in the Gateway to the Atlantic, the syndicalists in his coalition will take over the government, leaving O'Brien as a powerless figurehead. |
| 68 | * RedScare: O'Brien, a consummate moderate, previously ejected party members under suspicion of syndicalist links, an action causing several younger radicals to leave the party out of protest, forming the Progressive Labour Party. |

| 101 | * InternalReformist: The PLP is a socialist party that can be elected in bourgeois general elections and seeks to attain socialism through reform due to its pacifism. |
| 102 | * {{Pacifist}}: The core of the PLP is pacifist and under them Ireland will not join the Third International unless it has defeated the German Empire. |

| 112 | * TheCoup: If SC are elected and make too many allowances towards elements within the NDP, or Labour are elected and adopt unaltered, radical policies proposed by the PLP, then O'Duffy will launch the March on Dublin to depose the ruling government. |
| 113 | * TheFundamentalist: O'Duffy is a Catholic nationalist who would make it as difficult as possible for non-Catholics to participate in public life, if he doesn't just enact discriminatory policies. |
| 114 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: O'Duffy makes Ó Cuinneagáin his Príomh Aire simply to placate him but this might result in the latter wrestling power from the former. |
| 115 | * RegimeChange: If Germany wins the diplomatic tug-of-war with the Union of Britain, it will support a coup by O'Duffy to turn Ireland into its puppet state. |
| 116 | * RenegadeSplinterFaction: The Aontas Náisiúnta is a radical split from Sinn Féin by refusing the initial partition of Ireland and later the Ulster Privileges accords. |
| 117 | * TyrantTakesTheHelm: Despite participating in parliamentary politics, O'Duffy and the parliamentarian wing are no less anti-democratic than the abstentionist wing of the AN. After the March on Dublin, O'Duffy will crack down on all opposition and work towards a militarized, corporatist dictatorship he rules over by decree. |

| 127 | * EvilReactionary: Ó Cuinneagáin is an autocrat inspired by Charles Maurras' integralism and wishes to bring the country back to a time where the Irish language and Gaelic culture reigned supreme on the island, before imported ideologies like republicanism existed. |
| 128 | * KangarooCourt: To get rid of Eoin O'Duffy, Ó Cuinneagáin has gay couple Micheál Mac Liammóir and Hilton Edwards arrested and told that they would be tried for being sodomites and British spies if they did not testify that O'Duffy made sexual advances towards them. With their testimony, after a swift court case O'Duffy is convicted of sodomy and treason against the Irish nation, and sentenced to death by firing squad. |
| 129 | * MaliciousMisnaming: Ó Cuinneagáin brands his rival O'Duffy with the derogatory nickname O'Scruffy, a doddering drunkard who lacks the spine to adequately stamp out the Irish nation's enemies. |
| 130 | * NaturalizedName: In dropping English as a co-official language of Ireland, Ó Cuinneagáin will impose the complete Gaelification of personal names (as he did with his own before game start), and making Irish toponyms the sole official ones. |
| 131 | * PatrioticFervor: Ó Cuinneagáin's faction could be described as Gaelic nationalists (in contrast to the Catholic nationalist O'Duffy), seeking to revive Irish culture, including the endangered Irish language. |
| 132 | * ThePurge: After taking power Ó Cuinneagáin will enact a brutal purge of the party and military, O'Duffy being among the dead or "disappeared". |
| 133 | * RegentForLife: Due to his own autocratic tendencies, Ó Cuinneagáin has the choice to not crown a King, instead declaring a regency with himself at its head as Ceannaire (Leader) of Ireland. |
| 134 | * SuddenlySignificantCity: Due to Dublin's status as the stronghold of English imperial control in Ireland and reputation as a hive of Anglophiles, Ó Cuinneagáin seeks to move the capital to a more worthy place. The choice is made to be Baile Átha Luain (Athlone), a town at the very centre of the island; a proposal to build a new city around the Hill of Tara is rejected due to the stretched resources and a desire by traditionalists to not desecrate the sacred hill with urbanisation. |

| 207 | ---- |
| 208 | * BetterTheDevilYouKnow: During the 1926 British Revolution, when rumour had it that the syndicalist revolutionaries were planning to cross the Irish Sea from Liverpool to Belfast, the Ulster unionists chose the enemy they knew, joining the Republic of Ireland instead of risking being wiped out. In exchange, the Republic would honour a series of Ulster Privileges: the county councils of the Six Counties enjoy special autonomy, Unionists are given guaranteed seats on the President's Council of State, the electoral boundaries within the Six Counties cannot be changed, and a Minister for Ulster Affairs was created. |
| 209 | * ForeignRulingClass: Around two thirds of the Six Counties' population consists of Protestant settlers from Great Britain, who built their state on the foundations of their perceived supremacy over the native Irish Catholics of Ulster. Though this idea has been slowly dying since Ireland was reunified in 1926, intentional discrimination against the Catholic minority will immediately resume if Northern Ireland achieves independence. |
| 210 | * OccupiersOutOfOurCountry: Should a non-centrist Irish government fail to pacify the Ulster unionists, they will start an armed uprising to secede from Ireland. |
| 211 | * SatelliteCharacter: Northern Ireland is an unplayable country whose role is defined by their relationship to the Republic of Ireland and the British crown. |
| 212 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: Although the predominantly conservative and monarchist unionists in the Six Counties have no love for the Republic of Ireland and would rather serve the Crown, the fall of the United Kingdom and exile of the Royal Family to Canada mean that they have no choice but to live under Irish rule for the time being, for they hate the syndicalists even moreso than the Irish. If a non-centrist Irish government mismanages its relations with the unionists, it might have to deal with an uprising. |
| 213 | * VoluntaryVassal: Northern Ireland will immediately place itself under Canadian rule after gaining independence from Ireland or right after breaking away if it is syndicalist. |

| 233 | ->'''Ideology:''' Syndicalism |
| 234 | Britain's defeat in the Weltkrieg led to a major economic slump in the post-war, and a failed tariff war with Germany dramatically worsened Britain's situation. Good prices and unemployment both skyrocketed, and the workers became discontent, culminating in a general strike in March 1925 that became a full revolution after a violent crackdown at the Tarenni Colliery.\ |
| 235 | Within weeks, revolutionary militia took over the isle and forced the British elite to flee to Canada. The Trade Union Congress (TUC) took over all political authority and declared the Union of Britain. The new syndicalist nation joined the Commune of France and the Socialist Republic of Italy to form the Third Internationale. |

| 239 | * SparkOfTheRebellion: In 1925, a miner strike exploded into a total syndicalist revolution when the strike was violently crushed, eventually leading to the fall of the United Kingdom and formation of the Union of Britain. |
| 240 | * SchmuckBait: Invading Ireland gives the option to decide that "Ireland must be directly ruled from London!" Not only do you get the debuff from occupation normally, you get a national spirit that reduces political power gain and increased consumer good factories because the [[EnemyMine Irish Republican Army and royalist Ulster Volunteer Force]] have both risen against you. |

While ostensibly still 'syndicalist', the clique has been marked by its growing divergence from the ideology, with key thinkers often referring to 'Maximist Socialism' as syndicalism's natural evolution. Maximism itself is rooted in Sorelian rhetoric but has also developed an independent doctrine and drawn inspiration from French Neosocialists. The Maximists rose to national prominence following Mosley's appointment to Deputy Chairman in 1933, with the youthful, dynamic movement sweeping up many congressional deputies with their momentum.[[/note]] |
| 259 | ->'''Ideology:''' Totalism |
| 260 | |
| 261 | Oswald Mosley began his political career as a Conservative who later became a member of the Labour Party. During the British Revolution, he became famous for his organization of the worker's uprising in Birmingham. After the revolution, Mosley founded the Maximist faction, which sets a purpose of enacting of the large-scale centralization of the state and militarization in the face of the foreign counterrevolutionary threat. Being the author of the Totalist Charter, Mosley is seen as the key figure of the Totalist ideology. |
| 262 | ---- |
| 263 | * AllForNothing: If Mosley is elected to succeed Niclas y Glais after he devolved the Union of Britain, England will re-annex Scotland and Wales a month later, undoing all of Glais' work. |
| 264 | * BigBad: From both an anti-Syndicalist and moderate Syndicalist perspective, as he is one of the founders of the Totalist manifesto and seeks to override the democratic syndicalist governance of the Union of Britain to usher in a totalitarian government. |
| 265 | * CommieNazis: His ideology, Totalism, blends Stalinist-esque planned economics and revolutionary ideology with far-right traits such as Nationalism and Revanchism. |
| 266 | * DirtyCommunist: Mosley is the author of the Totalist Charter, and creator of the most influential far-left totalitarian ideology in the world. |
| 267 | * DystopiaIsHard: [[spoiler:Seeking to enforce Totalism on the Union of Britain can lead to other Syndicalists such as Eric Blair turning against him, and could result in a military coup against his faction.]] |
| 268 | * EmergencyAuthority: One way for Mosley to accomplish his Maximist Revolution is to declare martial law. |
| 269 | * EvilCripple: Mosley suffered a flying accident during the Weltkrieg, and walks with a limp. |
| 270 | * HistoricalVillainUpgrade: The real Mosley, despite his infamous reputation as the leader of British fascists, didn't hold serious political influence, and just followed the example of Mussolini's fascism. Here, he is not only a potential totalitarian leader of Britain, but also the creator of the most influential far-left totalitarian ideology in the world. |
| 271 | * PragmaticVillainy: Instead of taking the very unpopular decision to appoint himself Chairman-for-Life, Mosley can keep a facade of syndicalist democracy by appointing Eric Blair as his General Secretary. |
| 272 | * PresidentForLife: If Mosley is successful in his Maximist Revolution he will become Chairman for life as Grand Protector but will only make it official after winning the post-Second Weltkrieg election. |
| 273 | * ThePurge: One way to accomplish the Maximist Revolution for Mosley is to arrest all the leaders of the opposition. It may fail if some manage to escape. |
| 274 | * SmugSnake: For all his insistence that he's the strong leader the Union needs, Mosley's ploy to become dictator can go wrong in any number of ways, if it works at all. |
| 275 | * TyrantTakesTheHelm: Upon taking power, Mosley can (unconstitutionally) declare himself the permanent Grand Protector, uniting the powers of General Secretary and Chairman. He then strengthens his position, eliminating any possible opposition to his tyrannical rule, which is implied to be as Orwellian as possible, although certainly not cut off from the outside world. |

Cole's co-operative 'Guild Socialism' over than the Smilie-Moffat system of TUC-led economic planning, and diplomatic internationalism. Having gradually defected to Labour following Snowden's takeover of the ILP and its subsequent implosion when he rapidly shifted the party towards social democracy, the Autonomists make up a sizable proportion of the Labour Party but their ideological breadth and scattered nature limits their influence.[[/note]] |

| 548 | ->'''Ideology:''' Syndicalism |
| 549 | Tired of the prolonged and gruesome war, the French Third Republic fell into rampant mutinies and strikes after Germany's 1919 Spring Offensive. Built up tensions were unleashed after the humiliating Treaty of Versailles, and the nation fell into revolution as Bolshevik agitators pushed France's Syndicalist Trade Unions to declare war on the government. The old France was exiled to Algeria, and the Federation of the Communes of France was birthed in 1920, led by a bicameral government of parliamentary socialists and syndicalists.\ |
| 550 | Though the new France had to comply with territorial and economical losses from the Weltkrieg, it poses itself as the leader of the new Socialist world, and the strongest opponent to the Imperialist ''Pax Germanica''. Slowly recovering from scars of the past, the Commune now prepares for a future conflict with the Kaiserreich, a war that will reshape the fate of France, Europe, and the World. |
| 551 | ---- |
| 552 | * AllohistoricalAllusion: The flag of the French Social Republic includes a symbol reminiscent of the RNP, Déat's OTL collaborationist party. |
| 553 | * ArchEnemy: |
| 554 | ** To the German Empire, as the strongest representatives of their opposing ideologies (Syndicalism and Capitalism), as well as the main contenders for hegemony in Europe. |
| 555 | ** And, of course, to National France, since the very existence of one of these states is a challenge to the legitimacy of the other. |
| 556 | * CommieLand: Being the birthplace of the Syndicalist Revolution and the leading country of the Third Internationale, the Commune of France carries the torch of the Syndicalist Revolution worldwide. |
| 557 | * EagleSquadron: France is home to many socialist exiles enrolled in its armed forces, hoping to one day liberate their homeland from capitalism. |
| 558 | * EvilVersusEvil: Though the [[DirtyCommies Jacobins]] and the [[CommieNazis Sorelians]] are both authoritarian factions, they have very different and mutually incompatible views on what "advancing the Revolution" means in practice. If one faction manages to take full control of the Commune, the other will inevitably be purged. |
| 559 | * InternalReformist: While the other parties want to radically change the governance of the Commune of France, the reigning Orthodoxes wish to maintain orthodox syndicalism and use the existing governmental structure to rejuvenate the economy in more or less its current form. |
| 560 | * MartialPacifist: After what France and her allies suffered in the Weltkrieg and the heavy anti-militarist sentiment of its people, the Commune is in no mood to rush into another meatgrinder of a war headfirst. That said, most French citizens would gladly lay down their lives to protect the revolution they fought long and hard for. |
| 561 | * ShaggyDogStory: If no parties reach a majority in the 1936 Communard elections, the current Orthodox – Anarchist pact will continue with Marceau Pivert, whose unpopularity and resignation caused such tense elections in first place, staying in his office. |
| 562 | * TankGoodness: The Orthodoxes' military philosophy is based heavily around armored and otherwise mobile warfare, in contrast to the other parties, which all support some manner of infantry-centric warfare. |

| 614 | ---- |
| 615 | * FourStarBadass: No matter what one might think of Nestor Makhno's politics, the guy has undeniable badass credentials and is defintely no paperpusher or pushover of any sort. Exactly like his real life counterpart, Makhno was the leader of the Anarchist Black Army during the Russian Civil War, where he was a FrontlineGeneral who fought on the ground with his men (and got seriously wounded at several instances as a result), often against overwhelming odds as both the White [[WeAreStrugglingTogether and, occasionally, the Red Army]] wanted him and his Anarchist fighters crushed, and still was often able to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat time and time again. His feats in Kaisrreich are arguably even more legendary as he lead a seemingly outgunned and outmanned Black Army to victory against the German defenders at Kraków and even managed to capture and occupy the city for a while. |
| 616 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: Nestor Makhno sports a gnarly dueling scar, though whether you see it as a good scar or an evil scar likely depends a lot on your own views on him and his politics. In general, from the Entente, Reichspakt, and Russia's point of view, it's an evil scar born by a dangerous ideologue who tried to cast Ukraine into chaos and is trying to do the same with western Europe, while from the Third Internationale's point of view, it's a good scar and a reminder of his personal efforts and sacrifices to try to liberate the workers and peasants of Ukraine and his commitment to liberating Europe's working class. |

| 624 | ->'''Ideology:''' Radical Socialism |
| 625 | ---- |
| 626 | * AnarchyIsChaos: {{Averted|Trope}} -- neither putting the Anarchists in power nor the rule thereof is significantly more punishing on national stability than electing either totalist party or keeping the Orthodoxes in power, and in general, the society they build is just as stable as any other. |

| 628 | * WeHaveReserves: The Anarchists' war philosophy, inspired by the massive scale of the Weltkrieg and a belief that any future war would require even ''greater'' numbers of men under arms, is centered around vast militia armies armed with vast numbers of cheap rifles, rather than the tank armies favored by the Orthodoxes, the centralized army command favored by the Jacobins, or the squad-centric army favored by the Sorelians. |

| 675 | The Belgian army, commanded by King Albert himself, was the first who fought the German armies during the Great War and among those vanquished during the defeat of France. With the motherland under German occupation, Belgium was forced to comply to every single term: Belgian Congo becoming another German holding in Africa, Belgian Luxembourg was occupied and even the country ceased to exist under her name. German experts concluded that a federal state was the best option in order to reduce the contacts between Flemish and Walloons and avoid the creation of a unified resistance of all the population of the country. With the Peace With Honour, Adalbert von Hohenzollern, the Kaiser's third son, was crowned Adalbert I, King of Flanders and Wallonia.\ |
| 676 | In 1936, the buffer state of Flandern-Wallonien is coming to a boiling point, between the Flemish population, wanting to join the neutral Netherlands, the Walloon population, whose nationalism turned to French-fashioned syndicalist views, and the whole population, tired of German domination... |
| 677 | ----- |
| 678 | * CivilWar: Sometimes the people from Flanders-Wallonia can try to free themselves from the German yoke in the Second Belgian Revolution. Usually it is a CurbStompBattle, but it can be a great opportunity for the Commune of France if they are invading. |
| 679 | * DividedWeFall: The main reason for Germany to form Flanders-Wallonia as a federal unit instead of separating Wallonia from Flanders, since it provides a strong buffer state between France and Germany. |
| 680 | * PuppetState: While the Reichspakt is formed by German puppets, Flanders-Wallonia is one of the most heavily German controlled countries among them. |
| 681 | * WeAREStrugglingTogether: Both Flanders and Wallonia deeply hate the German occupiers and both groups can unite to attempt a Second Belgian Revolution. However, Wallonia believes that Flanders is collaborating with the German Empire while Flanders is afraid of the rising power of the syndicalist resistance and constantly struggles to maintain the small scraps of power that it holds. |

| 1170 | The young Portuguese Republic joined the Weltkrieg against Germany as a result growing bilateral hostilities over their African colonies and their relations to Britain, but their military defeats in both Mozambique and France caused a political crisis that culminated in a monarchist counter-revolution. King Manuel II was restored and Duke Duarte Nuno was declared his successor. Since then, the collapse of the British Empire, German territorial ambitions, and the Spanish political crisis have caused endless trouble for Portugal. King Duarte II presently heads a government fully controlled by the radical ''Integralismo Lusitano'', who have desires for Integralist reforms to create their ideal "Organic Kingdom". |

When the then-political party was banned following the March 17th Coup, the members of the Cause were politically isolated from King Manuel II and forced to be mere spectators of the Organic Experiment. With the coronation of Duarte II however, the royalist coalition would have a new opportunity to reassert themselves within Portugal. Though the Monarchist Cause's official purpose is the continued protection and strengthening of monarchist institutions, their secretive aim is a 'National Restoration' to empower the Monarch and form a conservative personalist dictatorship around them, whilst culling the various excesses of the ultra-radical Integralist regime. The Council's principle leaders are Marshal Couceiro and Domingos Fezas Vital, Lieutenant of the King.[[/note]] (The Paladin chosen to lead Portugal), Partido do Centro Católico[[note]]The Catholic Centre Party formed in January 1915, with the initial goal of representing Catholic interests in the anti-clerical Republic. Not explicitly monarchist at first, that anti-clericalism naturally drew the Catholics into opposition. When the Republic began to collapse, the Catholic Centre withdrew their support, with some key members turning to royalist militancy themselves. Following the Restoration, the Catholic Centre was the largest formal political party in the Royal Congress. Amid the disastrous year of 1925, the 'Centrists' reconciled with the Integralists following Hipólito Raposo's more pragmatic stance on political cooperation. Backing the coup in 1926, the Catholics now dominate the Chamber of Peers and have come to support a German-style semi-constitutional monarchy. Since a factional dispute in 1920, ardent monarchist and integralist sympathiser José Fernando de Sousa has led the party, though his advancing age has led a younger caucus of members around Professor António Salazar to gain prominence.[[/note]] (Catholic Centre chosen to lead Portugal) |

| 1252 | The Habsburg Austro-Hungarian Empire was the flashpoint for the Weltkrieg, and had suffered tremendously over the course of the war. Officer incompetence, organizational chaos, and nationalist tensions threatened to collapse Austria-Hungary in its entirety. But thanks to Germany's astounding military victories, Austria-Hungary endured and emerged as a victor of the Weltkrieg.\ |
| 1253 | Despite the Empire's victory in the war, the war revealed clear divisions of culture, class and ideology within the Empire, and inner unrest continued on in the post-war. Kaiser Karl, following the footsteps of the assassinated Franz Ferdinand, attempts to reform the multinational empire into a modern federation that can survive the twentieth century, but his plans have faced pushback from the nobility on the Hungarian side of the Empire.\ |
| 1254 | Today the Empire is on the brink, ethnic tensions are on boiling point, negotiations with the many kingdoms of the monarchy will be held in the next Ausgleich, the Hungarians seem eager to break the fragile union, the Balkan countries are moving to remove the influence of Austria in the region, while their puppet Italian Republic is ever rebellious and ever threatened by the Syndicalists. With enemies within and without, the Habsburg domination may be coming to an end. |
| 1255 | ---- |
| 1256 | * CivilWar: The Empire is in a very fragile union; the constituent kingdoms can attempt to rebel against Austria if the Ausgleich negotiations go wrong. Hungary seems to do this a lot. |
| 1257 | * TheFederation: |
| 1258 | ** One of the most peaceful ways to unite Austria-Hungary and avert its dissolution is to transform the Empire into this. The new federation will hold all the territories the separate constituent kingdoms had, with all industry, military forces and population united under one central government. If the social-conservatives federalize the empire it will be called ''United States of Greater Austria'' and if the social-democrats do it the name will be ''Danubian Federation''. However, the Habsburgs will still be in power, meaning it will be both TheFederation ''and'' HegemonicEmpire. |
| 1259 | ** Or Austria can just ignore this, send military forces to crush any rebellion and centralize the Empire by force. Austria ''has'' to crush Hungary to be able to set up the Danubian Federation/United States of Greater Austria, although it is planned to be possible, with luck, to peaceful federalize once the Hungary focus tree is done. |
| 1260 | * HegemonicEmpire: |
| 1261 | ** As UsefulNotes/TheSoundOfMartialMusic points out, Austria-Hungary is a union of various nations having no connection to one another except their joint allegiance to the house of Habsburg-Lorraine, a bizarre system straight from feudalism that looks outdated in an era of nationalism and nation-states. |
| 1262 | ** The Donau-Adriabund, which the Habsburgs could establish, is ostensibly an alliance meant to be a counterweight to Germany's Reichspakt. In practice, however, it also serves as a looser, more modernized form of the Holy Roman Empire. |
| 1263 | * MultinationalTeam: The Habsburg Empire is formed by five different constituent nations and a lot of ethnicities. If there's a war their armies will look like this. |
| 1264 | * ObstructiveBureaucrat: The Hungarians (Transleithania) are constantly trying to halt and revert any federalization efforts, as they realized they won't be the second place of the Empire, but only one more state among others while Austria still keeps their leadership. |
| 1265 | * PaperTiger: Austria looks imposing with their starting position, a large territory and a lot of puppets. However, due to its descentralized organization, the constituent countries have their own armies and industries with almost no cohesion between themselves and capitulating Austria can take the entire empire down. |
| 1266 | * ResurgentEmpire: Should Austria pull through its predicament, the Habsburgs can potentially reemerge as a major regional, if not global power. The Donau-Adriabund could even challenge Germany's Reichspakt as Europe's hegemonic bloc. |
| 1267 | * VestigialEmpire: ''Almost'' this, the Empire is already very decentralized and ethnic tensions are on its breaking point. The objective of Austria is to prevent this, if not [[ResurgentEmpire reassert its place in the modern world]], either by federalization or by force. |
| 1268 | * VideoGameCrueltyPunishment: Forcibly centralizing the Empire with military force results in every constituent rebelling against the Empire and locking it into a multi-front war that it is sure to lose without player control, as well as bringing international condemnation regardless of ideology. |

In spite of victory in the Weltkrieg, Austria remained burdened by an archaic political system and unrest. Emperor Karl now has the arduous task of reforming the ailing Empire despite numerous internal and external threats.'' |
| 1276 | After the assassination of his uncle, the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Karl found himself as the heir to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, succeeding in 1916 after the death of his great-uncle Emperor Franz Joseph. Karl had to hold what little was left of an empire full of internal turmoil and on the brink of collapse. As the empire pushed and defeated Italy, and the collapse of France under a revolution, the fall of Austria-Hungary was averted, at least for now. Since the end of the war, Karl has been trying to keep the efforts of federalization of the Empire started by his uncle Franz Ferdinand alive, by decentralizing and establishing autonomous countries within the empire. |
| 1277 | ---- |
| 1278 | * TheEmperor: Starts off as the Emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in a tradition spanning since from 1273, when Rudolf I von Habsburg became the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. |
| 1279 | * TheGoodKing: Is attempting to establish an Imperial Federation, where all the ethnic groups that compose his Empire are equal. He can also establish a pretty social government for its citizens. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_I_of_Austria#Beatification He has even been considered for sainthood in real life.]] |
| 1280 | * GoodIsNotSoft: To form the Danubian Federation or the United States of Greater Austria, Karl has to take extreme measures and crush the Hungarian nation as they rebel against Vienna's attempts to federalize the country. |
| 1281 | * NaturalizedName: The Kaiser of Austria is known as Karl I von Habsburg-Lothringen in Austria, Habsburg-Lotaringiai IV Károly in Hungary[[note]]In Hungarian, the surname precedes the given name.[[/note]], Karlo IV in Illyria, Karel III in Bohemia and Karol I in Galicia-Lodomeria. |
| 1282 | * TakeUpMySword: Franz Ferdinand wanted to reform into a federation of mostly autonomous states to resolve racial tensions and create a more equal empire, but was tragically assassinated before he could create it. Karl can see his uncle's dream realized. |
| 1283 | * UnexpectedSuccessor: Karl never expected to be the emperor of the Austrian Empire, a job that has always been destined for his uncle Franz Ferdinand. However, with his uncle's assassination and the death of his great-uncle Franz Joseph, he had to assume the throne and lead the Empire. |

Otto, despite his young age, has grand ambitions of an Empire whose disparate peoples share but one national identity. His laconic speech, perhaps slightly scandalous love-life, and youthful charm have culminated in Otto garnering frequent media attention.'' |
| 1291 | The only son of Emperor Karl I, Otto will come to the throne a young man who will come to continue, or even finish his father's work in establishing an Imperial Federation. |
| 1292 | ---- |
| 1293 | * AChildShallLeadThem: In earlier versions of Kaiserreich, Karl I still died at his original death date, meaning that Otto would have become Kaiser and King of Austria-Hungary just eight months shy of his tenth birthday. Averted in current versions, as he would be in his mid-thirties by the time of his ascension to the throne. |

| 1296 | * KingBobTheNth: Interestingly, although styled as King Otto of Hungary, he isn't the only King named Otto who ruled in Hungary. However, unlike the current Otto, he styled himself as King Béla V instead. Also of note was that he was baptised as Franz Joseph Otto as Karl was trying to promote the young man as ''Franz Joseph II'', although it didn't stick. |

| 1389 | Denmark remained neutral in the Weltkrieg, but at a great cost: it had to yield to its German neighbour when they demanded it mine its territorial waters. German influence over Danish society and government did not wane once the war was over, however, and Denmark soon found itself incorporated into the German Mitteleuropa economic system at its foundation.\ |
| 1390 | While Denmark profited from the German boom in the 1920s, the Social Liberal Party had to yield to the Social Democrats of the charismatic Thorvald Stauning, who, barring a hiatus between December 1926 and April 1929, served as prime minister consecutively since 1924. Stauning's dream of a Danish welfare state has not be materialised yet however, since the Danish upper house, Landstinget, which has been under the control of the conservatives for all this time, has continued to block any such motions. Many wonder what the future will hold for Denmark: will it find itself practically reduced to a German client state? Or will this tiny Nordic country secure a future for itself as new forces rise to challenge the international establishment? |

| 1392 | * InSpiteOfANail: Dependent on choices, the Danish government can still implement the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanslergade_Agreement Kanslergade Agreement]], the name and nature of which is the exact same as a famous political compromise from OTL between the Social Democratic Party and their coalition partner the Social Liberal Party, as well as the main opposition party the Liberal Party that happened in 1933. In real life, the deal is credited as having greatly restored and strengthened the Danish public's trust in parliamentary democracy at a crucial time, and is pointed to as the main reason why far-left and far-right ideologies such as communism and fascism never really managed to secure any kind of broad public appeal in Denmark, even in a time when the rest of Europe was growing increasingly radicalized and polarized. |

| 1456 | %%Starting in 1874, Iceland had its first taste of independence when Denmark granted the colony the right to home rule and a constitution. As a part of Denmark, Iceland remained neutral throughout the Weltkrieg. After the conclusion of the Weltkrieg, Iceland joined the Mitteleuropa Economic Bloc alongside its master Denmark. This brought a period of prosperity to the island nation as Iceland could now tap into two markets for its main export: fish. The British market continued its lucrative fish imports from Iceland due to the distance between the two islands. Meanwhile, the entry of Icelandic Cod into the European Market became a source of smaller additional funds to help boost Iceland’s economy.\ |
| 1457 | However, this economic prosperity would not last forever. The British Revolution of 1925 shattered the miracle that post-weltkrieg Iceland was experiencing. As the royalists fled to various corners of the Empire, the British-Icelandic trade route instantly ran dry. The only close remainders of the cod trade were the royalists who fled to Canada but they had more pressing economic issues than resuming Icelandic trade. Thus, Iceland was left wallowing in the wake of the British Revolution since Mitteleuropan economic doctrine dictated that no trade could be enacted with Syndicalist countries.\ |
| 1458 | %%To help put a stopgap on the massive unemployment that started to rise in the country, the Althing created the City Work-Creation Scheme to put the people to work on manual labour construction projects. This worked for some time but eventually became a divisive topic between the parties in the government. During a city council meeting on the 9th of November 1932, the council debated pulling the plug on the project. News of this reached the population who arrived in droves to riot in front of the building demanding that the Scheme remains in place due to the fact that the economic recession still continued to afflict Iceland. This riot became known as Gúttóslagurinn and ensured that the CWCS remains in effect for the near future of the country.\ |
| 1459 | %%While the past decade has been a disaster for the people of Iceland, there still remains a hope for a brighter future over the horizon. Prospective government officials have started crafting plans for large scale public works projects to provide jobs, kick-starting a tourism industry, or even looking into tapping into the geothermal and hydroelectric resources that our island provides us with. Perhaps with a little assistance from Denmark, these dreams can come true. |

| 1495 | Norway is standing at a crossroad in history. While the nation is relatively prosperous, civil society is plagued by political infighting and stagnation. The left is divided as a result of schisms within the once dominant Labour party. In 1921 the moderate faction broke away and formed the Social Democratic Labour Party, while the radical syndicalist wing broke away to form the Norwegian Syndicalist Federation in 1923. In addition, the Norwegian Communist Party is struggling and there are rumours about forming a new vanguard party of the far left, based upon the principles of National-Syndicalism. On the opposite end of the political spectrum, several nationalist organisations are jockeying for power and influence. While they are somewhat united in their opposition to socialism, their means and goals differ. While the political infighting has not resulted in violence, the ruling Liberal party is mostly powerless to handle pressing issues due to its minority government. As dark clouds are gathering once more over Europe, the people are anxiously awaiting the election in October 1936. |

| 1588 | After the Germans stood victorious in the Weltkrieg, Sweden had to adjust to a new world order. As such, few considered it surprising when the Swedish government announced that Sweden would join the German organisation of Mitteleuropa. Benefitting heavily from this, Arvid Lindman and his conservatives managed to fend off the social democrat attempts to take over through electoral triumph, cementing Sweden on the map as the conservative bulwark of Scandinavia.\ |
| 1589 | This may change however as Lindman retired two years ago. This year, the new leader Gösta Bagge, who also succeeded Lindman as prime minister, will lead his first elections. Will he too be able to fend off his nemesis on the opposition, Per Albin Hansson? |

| 1729 | Following the introduction of the Finnish Declaration of Independence by Pehr Svinhufvud’s Senate on the 4th of December, 1917 and the subsequent declaration of independence from Russia by Finland on the 6th of December, 1917, Finnish society saw itself divided amongst two groups: the Red Guards, led by Ali Aaltonen, and the White Guards, led by Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim.\ |
| 1730 | It wasn’t long before a civil war broke out between Red Finland, which was composed primarily of members of the Social Democratic Party of Finland, and White Finland, composed of forces under the Svinhufvud Senate alongside German-trained Jäger troops.\ |
| 1731 | After three months of vicious warfare, the German-backed Whites were able to push the Reds and the People’s Delegation out of Helsinki and eventually surround the retreating forces who were subsequently forced to surrender.\ |
| 1732 | Out of the ashes of the Finnish Civil War rose the Kingdom of Finland, a rabidly anti-socialist nation led by Prince Frederick Charles of Hesse, or King Fredrik Kaarle I as he had come to be known following his coronation as King of Finland.\ |
| 1733 | Despite enjoying a period of peace and protection as an unofficial German protectorate, a certain sense of political resent has begun to develop within the Finnish populace due to the pervasiveness of Germany and German-affiliated officers and companies within Finland. In addition, radicals, from both the left and right, have begun to slowly consolidate power after years of negligence by the King and the National Coalition... |
