To be honest, it was a little weird for just any minor country (like Bhutan) to stage a coup in a country as major as USSR (which had the NKVD) or USA (which had the FBI). I remember playing with that and just cringed every time it worked. The new Spy system is also legitimately amazing, you can literally bend countries to your knees without a single war, consistently root out resistance during wars, and build intelligence networks in areas you are going to attack... Now that I have La Resistance, I will never go back to that barebones intelligence system.

Seeing as there are still several So American nations to go, maybe you could play a current build HoI4 without DLCs as a contrast. Anyway, thanks for the commitment to this ridiculous endeavor.

I remember in that version you could boost party popularity in China as PRC and territory would occasionally flip to you. I had a fun campaign back then just letting China fight Japan alone and occasionally getting the perfect state to flip to me to meme the hell out of China and Japan

11:35 thats not their capital, it's because it was Poland's capital, and they still tecnhically exist. You can see it in Switzerland as well.

Honestly I can only remember the game at launch more fondly than how it ended up. Some of the quality of life features were pretty nice, like the factories, but as I didn't feel inclined to get the DLC the game seemed to take a hit with each one until I eventually just didn't feel like playing anymore. I particularly remember Man the Guns making me never want to touch naval things (or any nation involved with them) with a 10 foot pole ever again.

At first i was confused about the soviet moving capital to warsaw or having two capitals at the end, but then I rememberd, taht in the old times capital woulnd change untill peace deal, so that second star in USSR is just a capital of that fasist rebelion, and the warsaw was still capital of poland

Fool. Chairman Mao was always like that. Perfection does not change.
