Italy declared war on Greece earlier and because Romania was still guaranteeing Greece Romania Defended Greece then joined the Allies and then flipped Fascist.
I wasn't paying attention while playing a historical game as Canada and just noticed this happened in Ethiopia. An even bigger humiliation for Mussolini and Italy than in our timeline.
Played Yugoslavia. Went communist and did the Limited Self-Government. Invaded the Balkans established a bunch of puppets annexing them after finishing the tree. Flipped Dem after the War and ditched the Soviets for the Allies, but I'm not bothering to fight Japan.
President can declare war on anyone, but weโre โneutral.โ
Ban Communism, ally Silver Shirts at ~26%, fire the demagogue, then do War Powers, then drop fascism under 30%, let the event time out. Civil war avoided: one protest and they fold. Ban fascism at 20% for Neutrality Act.
Tried out the New Australia tree. Focused on Navy for once. Destroyed the Japanese Navy and island hopped from the Philippines to Taiwan to Okinawa and then Japan capitulating them by the end of 1942. Then Invaded the Italians and helped defeat the axis in 1943.
If this was 2016, it would of been an interesting time. Trump wins the popular vote, outperforms Obama's 2012 EV total, comes close to Obama's 2008 EV total, and is the first republican since Nixon to win Minnesota. The media coverage of this would of been a lot of fun to watch
Played the Japanese Democratic Path and formed the Greater East Asian Federation, but at this point its just Asia. Everything is cored. Used Console Commands for the RAJ, gave up Italy for it though to be fair. Established some democracies in Europe after the wars.
Kept playing a little longer. Italy fell in 1940. USSR fell in 1941. Japan in 1942. Then the rest afterwards. Working on flipping China democratic via spies.
