Line 47:
** Also counts for certain nations. For example, Shangqing, the smallest of the starting Chinese states, can potentially unify all of China under a new imperial dynasty if played right.
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: Baron Roman von Ungern-Sternberg, the appropriately named [[Evil Overlord|Mad]] [[Evil Is Cool|Baron]] [[The Horde|of Mongolia.]]
* [[A Nazi Byby Any Other Name]]: According to the background material Hitler died during [[World War I]] and the Nazi party itself never comes into existence. However an alternate version called the Alldeutsche Verband lead by [[Straight Gay|Ernst Röhm]] exists and shares pretty much the same beliefs. And can per event, be elected to power.
** It's safe to say all National Populist nations are basically this.
** Totalists are this for Communists.
Line 55:
* [[One Federation Limit]]: Averted. The Italian Federation, the Anarchist Federation of Iberia, and the Princely Federation all exist.
* [[Pet the Dog]]: It's possible to be ''extremely'' lenient to defeated enemies if the player so chooses - playing as the victorious White Russians, for example, one of the choices given fairly early on provides the option to formally recognize the local Soviet councils and essentially integrate the defeated Reds peacefully into the government.
* [[Putting Onon the Reich]]: The Integralists in Brazil, as in [[Real Life]]. Wrangel's Russian Ultranationalists can also count.
** Cardinal Innitzer led Italy is this, and potentially the American Union State if Fritz Kuhn's coup succeeds.
* [[Rape, Pillage and Burn]]: What Mongolia can do to its enemies.
Line 68:
* [[Shout-Out]]: Many. Just for example, Poland's text for the end of the Olympics is 'Poland cannot into Olympics,' a play on a popular Paradox forum meme.
** One of the ministers for the Fengtian Republic is named [[Harry Turtledove|Liu Han.]]
** One of the Canadian Generals is named [[Black AdderBlackadder|Melchett.]]
* [[Spanish Civil War]]: This alternate timeline scenario features a [[Melee a Trois]] between the Kingdom of Spain, Carlist Spain and the CNT-FAI.
* [[The Spanish Inquisition]]: If the Carlists win the [[Spanish Civil War]], this can be reborn. It's used to hunt down CNT-FAI agents, and can spread to Portugal as well.
* [[Ungern -Sternberg]]: Leader of Mongolia in this timeline. Can potentially be crowned [[Asskicking Equals Authority|Ghenghis Khan II upon conquering the Ma Clique.]]
* [[We Have Reserves]]: The Syndicalists in the Second American Civil War have this as their primary advantage - the other factions get better generals and usually have better-trained and equipped troops, but at the end of the day there just aren't very many of them, while every Syndicalist soldier killed has three more lined up to take his place on the battle line.
* [[World War Two]]: While it is still feature Germany vs. France and Britain, this time Germany is less Fascist and France and Britain more Communist.
* [[Vestigial Empire]]: Numerous examples exist in the game. One is the remains of the collapsed British empire which has been reduced to a government in exile operating out of Canada with a very loose alliance with only a few of its former dominions/colonies. However given the nature of the game it's fully possible to subvert the situation.
** One of the major goals when playing as Russia is to subvert this.
* [[Victory Byby Endurance]]: If the Syndicalists end up winning the Second American Civil War, this is usually how they do it - their territory includes a substantial majority of America's population, industry, and infrastructure, so they can produce more supplies than the other factions involved in the war, muster more troops to fight, and replace losses faster. All they really have to do is fortify and wait while their enemies gradually bleed themselves dry.
* [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]]: Almost more than actual [[Hearts of Iron]]. Want to reenserf the peasantry under a new Russian Empire? Create a fully dictatorial Totalist regime in America? Execute protesters and those who oppose your reign? Make the civil wars of our timeline ''[[It Got Worse|even worse?]]'' [[And Zoidberg|Not allow women to vote?]] Then come and play Kaiserreich!
* [[The Von Trope Family]]: Seeing as [[Imperial Germany]] is still alive, Von names are much more in use. Notable example include [[Ungern -Sternberg|Roman Von Ungern-Sternbeg.]]
