This means that the time is coming for this mod to close the curtains and move on to the new game. Increase your literacy to increase your developmental levels.Īs you may be aware, Victoria 3 is in the works and will be released sometime within the next year or two. Provinces that have less than 30,000 pops will always be extremely underdeveloped. Social Corruption can be reduced by increasing literacy while Government Corruption can be reduced by increasing admin spending.ĭevelopment levels are determined by the literacy rates of specific provinces and whether the province has a large enough population. So unless you fulfill at least one of those conditions then war justification will be possible. The ability to justify war is tied to ruling party war policy, government type, world tension levels and being in a war. Some people have asked whether not being able to justify war is a bug. This is the beginning of the New World Order. In light of these developments, the end of the Cold War can hardly have said to deliver the decisive realisation of international peace but it still has profoundly altered our world and whether it is for the better or worse is up to you. In this renewed competitive multi-polar world, nations will join what initially are trade blocks, and eventually in some cases large centralized union states like the European Union, the South American Union and the African Union to keep up with the world. And with globalization and the shift in geopolitical power towards the east, this is increasingly not a matter of if but when. China and India are aspiring to seize the top spot and end the American hegemony though soft and hard power. However it will not last long in this new multi-polar world with the rise of new centres of power in the ambitious and populace east.

This sparked a chain reaction that reverberated throughout the world and started the decent of the USSR into a pulpit of pandemonium that would culminate into its dissolution. "Gorbachev tear down this wall!" Few would have thought that the Iron Curtain would have fallen so quickly but yet it did. This is a time of great upheaval that needs a great leader to guide the country forward - will it be you? A more immediate danger would be the tensions growing in the Korean Peninsula where nationalists are actively agitating for a War of Unification. It is only a matter of time before those empires are consigned to the history books. With the decolonisation of India, the winds of change are blowing against the imperialists. While the Superpowers grow stronger, the colonial empires of old are becoming weaker. On the other side of the Iron Curtain, the Soviets are consolidating their power in Eastern Europe and building greater ties with China and India. Starting with the rearmament of Germany and then later Japan in the Western Bloc, the US attempted to form a bulwark against further communist encroachment. Confronted with this new reality and the end of the American atomic monopoly in 1949, the Truman administration quickly moved to escalate and expand its containment doctrine. The Old World has been swept aside in the storm of war and a new one is taking shape but for better or worse this is the American Century.Ĭommunism has triumphed in China. The Vietminh has rebelled against their French colonial overlords while in South East Asia the Dutch are struggling to maintain control over their empire and with it the era of decolonisation has begun. Manchuria is occupied by the Soviet Union and Korea is divided between the USA and USSR. China is engulfed in the Chinese Civil War between the nationalists and the communists. In Asia, Iran is struggling to regain control over the northern part of the county. Eastern Europe is under the Soviet orbit and with each passing moment the USSR's stranglehold increases. In Greece a civil war is raging with communists in the north and government control in the south. Italy is edging between Communism and Democracy. In south of Europe a power struggle in between communists and governments is raging. Germany is divided in between the victorious nations from World War 2, the United States, the Soviet Union, the UK, and France. From Stettin to Trieste, an Iron curtain is descending upon Europe.
