I think if you like Vic3 then it's worth it Blocs are a pretty good addition to the overall game, but you could always go the pirate route and unlock the DLC

smdh you'd doom the world by never exporting the revolution, Trotsky would slap you if he could but alas he was eaten by a frenchman
Really though obviously try to stay out of the other european powers plays so you can go in grab stuff and get out is what will fuel your future economy which in turn will grow your economy much faster which in turn will improve peoples living standard, like I had the highest at 27 with the second highest being the CSA at 25 and the one after only having 20 SoL
Infamy is always ticking down so if you aren't constantly going to war and taking stuff then what are you doing? Also one big thing it is very easy to get extra stuff as Russia while having your hands in every pot you have a big army and the european powers now this so they are always willing to give you a little something, another thing is that I have a few of my protectorates revolt and I think the devs messed up somewhere because when they want to declare independence taking their provinces is extremely cheap, I think it should've been something like a quarter of the actual cost but it seemed more like a tenth so.
Sneak update since there were like a couple of months left
I dunno end game screen
Premier Rosa Luxemburg declares war on the USA to aid the communist indian territory uprising
I wouldn't say that's 'normality' at least from my perspective germans did some token "I'm against the radical left AND the radical right" now they are just going "We must end Islamo-Bolshevism before it ends us".
Obviously this guy's a pig but it's a sentiment a lotta nazis and fash in germany are getting more and more comfortable saying.
Don't mind me just posting the head of the german police union saying very normal things
"Antisemites for the most part have two faces in germany, an islamic one and a radical left one."
Make way make way news coming through

🧵🚨 URGENT: Scientist whose previous work included directed energy beam research for the US intelligence community said Biden's symptoms during the CNN debate made him think of the Havana Syndrome. This is according to former KGB spy Yuri Shvets who defected to the US in 1993.
That's right folks the russians mind beamed your glorious leader, the cognitive decline that you saw was not a cold but a hot, like a sizzling fajita, microwave hitting the powerful cranium of Joe, the CIA and the FBI are on the case but it seems like the only way to protect the president is through a helmet not unlike the Comic book villain Magneto. Reports indicate that the Military Industrial Complex is building the most expensive tinfoil hat money can buy.
Some exit polls from France from this round of voting
Things to note:
Macron and centrist in general have a huge demographic problem only getting 13% with the 18-34 year olds. It doesn't really get any better until they start hitting the 64+ year olds
Fascists doing well from 35+ onwards.
No idea what they mean with employee and worker so if someone wants to inform me on those categories but yeah.
Center really only did well with old pensioners.
First we'd never nuke austria we'd nuke germany so get that one straight, second cuckoo clocks are german.
It's pretty funny but I'm not surprised switzerland is basically a signifier especially now after being drip fed 'switzerland bad' because they have a slightly less aggressive stance on russia, switzerland bad because doesn't recognize Hamas as a terrorist org and so on and so on.
Also I guess they had to break out the one 'white country' so it doesn't come off as racist, like I'm pretty sure the person wrote banana republic or third world country first but wisely used switzerland here.
Really depends on your map, some have nothing built in them some have some towns and some even have industries so you actually can requisition stuff from elsewhere, your country is just the map there's no 'elsewhere', but you can for example relocate people living in one town to a coal mining workers district, or use the already existing sawmill to source logs you might need for construction.
Biden looks pretty similar to von Hindenburg at this moment
Brüning recalled that once the president came to meet him at the railway station, but failed to recognize him. On the other hand, Franz von Papen, a later chancellor, found that despite minor lapses the president remained competent until his last days. Hindenburg was persuaded to run by the Kamarilla, and supported by the Centre Party, the Deutsche Volkspartei (DVP) and the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), which regarded him as the only hope of defeating Hitler.
Hindenburg was 82 at that point.
We all know how it ended after Hindenburg was elected he let the Brownshirts back on the streets then he and von Papen did a bunch of hemming and hawing until they made Hitler chancellor and did pretty much everything Hitler asked for like dissolving the Reichsttag. Two years later the guy would croak and Hitler would take everything over.
New polls just dropped is Kamala going to be
2? All signs point towards yes.
