Kaiserland: World of the Kaiser

Kaiserland: World of the Kaiser is a Hearts of Iron Mod that is based off of the Kaiserland series created by Shroob12 on Storyfire
== Summary ==
The German Empire had won WWI with Italy, Japan, America, Spain, Pahlavi Dynasty Persia, Bulgaria and Austria as they beat the Entente Powers, Britain, Russia, Serbia, France and the Ottoman Empire, however their victory was not prosperous as there was a new power in the east within Russia that is a threat. The Germans had to diversify and create representation reforms to stabilize their Empire and transform it into civilian mode, Italy is having to deal with scrutiny from the Jewish community for expelling all Jews from Jerusalem, Spain is having problems with a Liberian Socialist Group known as the Black Liberation Army, America is about to end up in a Political Slapfight, Persia's vast Empire had a civil war between the Government of Reza Shah Pahlavi and Sunni Islam opposition leader Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Japan had to put down rebellions which resulted in it's overstretched Empire getting close to collapsing.
Things get worse in Germany as Paul von Hindenburg gets assassinated by angry Syndicalists posing as Jews which results in Ludendorf and Hitler rising to power and taking over the Government of Germany. All of Europe has gone Fascist after having to deal with stability issues within their Empires and no thanks to this, Europe is about to end up in a cold war with the Soviet Russians and their Satellites.
This all affects a young Jewish Boy named Hans who with his family and friends was transported to Morocco to go to Goshen, a Boer Republic specifically created for Jews by Germany. Sadly Hans looses all of his family and friends to the Black Liberation Army which results in Hans having to survive in Africa.
== Around the World ==
=== Europa 1933 ===
Europe has been conquered by the four Superpowers known as the German Empire, Italian Empire, Spanish Empire and the Soviet Union ever since the end of the War. Germany had conquered all of Northern France, the British Isles, Scandinavia, the Low Countries, Central Europe, East Europe and the Balkans. Germany unfortunately had to conquer it's ally of Austria-Hungary to prevent it's collapse and it even had to conquer Bulgaria to save it from Ottoman Conquest. Germany created a horde of Puppet States and Client States in the lands it had conquered as a way to stabilize it's Empire and allow the Non German peoples subjugated by the Empire to represent themselves. Serbia (which got conquered after annexing Bosnia), Romania (which got conquered after annexing Transylvania and Bessarabia), Belgium, the Netherlands (which was conquered by Germany to save it from British Invasion), Luxembourg, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, Denmark, Norway and Sweden were annexed as Puppet States or were subjugated under Germany's sphere of Influence.
Germany then created Puppet States such as the Polish-Lithuanian Empire, United Baltic Duchy, Grand Duchy of Belarus, Kingdom of Ukraine, Kingdom of Finland and the Tsardom of Russia out of the territories of Russia it conquered. France and Britain were partitioned by Germany, Italy, Spain and the Soviets. The Germans gained Northern France in which Northeastern France was annexed as part of Alsace Lorraine (which also includes Paris) as the rest of Northern France became a Puppet Regime ruled by the Bonaparte Dynasty as monarchs. Spain annexed Southwest France as the West Portion was created as a Puppet State ruled by the Orleans Dynasty as monarchs as Italy annexed Southeast France as they also annexed Monaco as a Puppet State and they even created a Puppet State in Corsica ruled by the royal house of Two Sicilies. The Republic of France was exiled to Quebec after the loss of their homeland.
Britain suffered heck as it lost all of it's colonies in Africa, in Asia (even India), Oceania and the Americas, suffered hellish bombing raids by Germany and America and all of the Royal Family except Edward, Prince of Wales was murdered by two American troopers who desired revenge on the British for sinking the Lusitania and the Ships of the German blockade. After the success of the Invasion, Britain was partitioned into three Puppet States of Germany known as the Emirate of England, Duchy of Wales and the Imperial State of Ireland. Scotland was annexed by the Soviet Union as a Satellite State.
Russia after so many defeats and deaths was on the breaking point of Revolution, Germany had conquered all of Eastern Europe and Finland before Russia was mobilized to create a vast line of defense consisting of trenches and Bunkers to keep the Russians out of the war in which they were successful. The Success of the Germans broke Russia into a Revolution that resulted in it getting Partitioned by America, Persia, Germany and the Soviets. Germany annexed the historical Ingria region (which consists of St. Petersburg) and turned it into a Puppet State of Germany ruled by Tsar Nicolas. East Siberia was annexed by America who created two Puppet Regimes consisting of Russian Republicans. The rest of Russia became the Soviet Union who then annexed Svalbard, Scotland, Iceland and Greenland and turned them into Soviet Satellite States.
Greece was invaded by Italy who then split up Greece into four Puppet Regimes, The Duchy of Samos, The Kingdom of Morea, The Kingdom of Crete and the Kingdom of Greece (which is in the lands of Greece not claimed by the other three Puppet States which is ruled by George II).
Germany after it's victory had a hard transition from Wartime mode to Civilian mode as it had to create diversity and representation policies to prevent rebellions from the non-German peoples conquered by the Germans. Hindenburg did just that to stabilize the Empire and to help the Empire's transition to Civilian mode was easy except they were supposed to keep an eye on the Soviets. This was one big fatal mistake as Syndicalists posing as Jewish people killed Hindenburg which resulted in the rise of Erich Ludendorf and his deputy Adolf Hitler as they and their party the Nationalist Military party took over the Government to hunt down and exterminate all Communists. Suspecting the Jews of Hamburg to be communist and anger by the peoples of Hamburg who hate the Jews made them commit an operation to have all the Jews of Hamburg exiled to the State of Goshen in Africa (state created by Germany as a state for Jewish people), however a majority of them as Hitler expected were killed by the Black Liberation Army.
=== Asien ===
Italy had conquered Mesopotamia, Transjoirdan, Syria and the Arabian Peninsula after helping Hussein bin Ali and Ibn Saud rebel against the Ottomans, Italy then split then up into six Puppet regimes, the Sultanate of Syria, the Kingdom of Jordan, the Maharajahnate of Mesopotamia, the Emirate of Jabal Shammar, the Sultanate of Saudi Arabia and the Kingdom of Yemen. The Aden Protectorate became South Arabia which is a colony administered by the regional Kingdoms and ruled by the Italian Colonial Authority who represents the King of Italy as Sultan of South Arabia.
India, Afghanistan, Khiva, Bukhara, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, the Sheikdoms and Kuwait were all conquered by Reza Shah Pahlavi who made Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Afghanistan, Khiva, Bukhara, Jammu and Kashmir, Hyderabad, Nepal, Mysore and Travancore as Puppet States with puppet states created by Reza known as the Mughal Maharajahnate, Sikh Sheikdom, Grand Duchy of Berar, Kingdom of Goa and the Maharajahnate of Madras. Reza Shah Pahlavi unified it's Puppet States with all of the Princely States of India into a Giant Empire ruled by the Pahlavi Dynasty known as Indo-Persia. Indo-Persia was prosperous until it had a nasty civil war between the Government and the Coalition of Muhammad Ali Jinnah who wanted to create a Sunni Islamic Dictatorship.
Japan had conquered all of East Asia, Southeast Asia, Micronesia, the Assam Province, Tibet, Bhutan, Sikkim and the Xinjiang Region. They were about to conquer all of Mongolia and China until the Soviets snagged West Mongolia and Central China and created two Satellite States known as the People's Republic of Mongolia and the People's Republic of China. Japan had suffered a massive rebellion against it's Empire by Chinese Nationalists, Chinese Communists, Chinese Nationalist Monarchists and the remaining European and American people in China. This rebellion and having to deal with the communist states. Japan's Puppet States fought all of their enemies with vast hardships as they tried to put down the rebellions as rebellions stirred up in their countries. The war was won by Japan and it's Puppet States with the aid of Siam and Indo-Persia. However this massive rebellion made Hirohito as Emperor of Japan realize that Japan has an vast overstretched Empire. Due to this Hirohito had decided to make it his goal to prevent Japan from joining all future wars because one little mistake in a future war and Japan's Empire collapses and if it does then all of Asia will endure an era of eternal chaos and the blood will be on Hirohito's hands.
America had gained all of East Siberia after the Russian Civil War. The region became a refuge for the Russian Republicans. Two Puppet Regimes in Sakha and Vladivostok were created in the region for Russian Republicans who desire autonomy.
=== Afrika ===
Afrika has been divided by Italy, Spain, Indo-Persia, Ethiopia and Germany. Italy has annexed Tunisia and Egypt as Puppet Regimes as the Kingdom of Libya and the Emirate of Cyrenaica had gained independence for their hard efforts in helping Italy and the Central Powers in winning the War. Italy annexed Chad, Central Africa and the Center of Libya as a giant Colony known as Italian Sudan. Spain had annexed all of West Africa as one giant colony as Spanish Africa, but this resulted in Liberia in having a Socialist Revolution which resulted in the creation of a Socialist State ruled by the Communist Black Liberation Army. This resulted in Spain having to go to war against the Racist Socialist Regime who desires to wipe out all Europeans, Indo-Aryans, Arabs, African Christians and create a United Africa ruled by Socialists and Tribal Shamans.
Germany gained all of the Southern Portion of Africa which stretches from the southern borders of Ethiopia, Italian Sudan and Spanish Africa all the way down to the coast of South Africa. This Giant Colony is South Germany and it is a Colony Administered by Regional Warlords and Native Kingdoms loyal to the German Colonial Administration of South Germany. Indo-Persia has annexed the Sultanate of Zanzibar as a Puppet State as a way to help Italy take over the Suez to cut contact between the British and their domains in Asia.
=== Americas ===
The USA had won the war and had prosperity until the death of Theodore Roosevelt who died in 1919 and was replaced by his Vice President Warren G Harding who then died in 1923. The next President Harding's VP Calvin Coolidge had a crazy presidency, despite him being an isolationist, his VP Wayne Wheeler was allowing German, Japanese and Indo-Persian Aristocrats and the Zaibatsu from buying all of their Alcohol Companies to prevent the Mobs from taking over the Alcohol Industry to avoid another incident like the Valentine's day Massacre. This resulted in Huey Long, a Popular Politician from Louisiana in leading a coup against the Presidency of Coolidge and Wheeler and took charge. Long was popular with people from his state, but the rest of America hates him because he made Joseph P Kennedy, an unpopular Democrat Politician, his VP and he has sympathies for the KKK. This had resulted in Multiple Political Parties known as the Liberal Federal Fascist Party (Huey Long's Party), Democrat Party, Republican Party, Hollywood Party, Nationalist Military Party, Communist Party of America, Syndicalist Party of America, Anarchist Party of America, Monarchist Party of America, Fascist Party of America, the Dixie Party of America, Black Liberation Army of America, Black Dragon Society of America and the Nation of Islam in taking arms against each other which started the Great American War.
Canada was split up into three nations, the Canadian Confederacy which is ruled by Native Canadian Tribes, The Third Republic of France which is located in Quebec and the Kingdom of Britain which is located in the Maritimes and his ruled by Edward VIII (formerly Edward, Prince of Wales) his wife Wallis Simpson as Queen. All of Latin America had no changes, but the region is in vast Anarchy as Communists are fighting Nationalists.
=== Oceania ===
Australia and New Zealand were annexed by America as Overseas territories, and the both of them ain't fairing well. Australia has a new Governor named William Joseph Simmons who is racially discriminating against the Aboriginal Australians and brutally suppressing Australians who are not loyal to the USA. Simmons even desired to punish the citizens by abducting the White Australian, Aboriginal Australian, and Part White Part Aboriginal Australian children of disloyal citizens and reeducating them to be proper Americans to Americanize Australia. He was brought to power after Huey Long's ascension.
Micronesia was annexed by Japan after Germany gave the Islands to them so they can instead take Melanesia and West Polynesia to annex them as part of the Imperial Territory of the German Ost Pacific.
== Gameplay ==
Kaiserland is a Hearts of Iron IV mod, and like HOI4 it is a grand wargame that primarily revolves in a world in which the German Empire with Italy, Spain, Pahlavi Dynasty Persia, Japan and America won the war together. The player may play as any nation in the world in the 1933 or 1939 start dates in singleplayer or multiplayer, although the game is not designed to go beyond 1950. A nation's military is divided between naval forces, aerial forces, and ground forces. For the ground forces, the player may train, customize, and command divisions consisting of various types of infantry, tanks, and other units. These divisions require equipment and manpower to fight properly. The navy and air force also require men and equipment, including the actual warships and warplanes that are used in combat. Equipment is produced by military factories, while ships are built by dockyards. These military factories and dockyards are, in turn, constructed by civilian factories, which also construct a variety of other buildings, produce consumer goods for the civilian population, and oversee commerce with other nations. Most nations are initially forced to devote a significant number of their civilian factories to producing consumer goods, but as the nation becomes increasingly mobilized, more factories will be freed up for other purposes. Mobilization is represented as a "policy" that the player may adjust with the proper amount of political power, an abstract "resource" that is also used to appoint new ministers and change other facets of the nation's government. In addition to mobilization, there are other policies, including the nation's stance on conscription and commerce.
Land is divided into tiny regions known as provinces (also called tiles), which are grouped together to form states. Each state has a certain amount of building slots, factory slots, and 10 infrastructure slots. The major seas and oceans (for warships) and the sky (for warplanes) are similarly divided into different regions. These provinces each have a type of terrain assigned to them that determines how well different types of units will perform in combat there. Divisions are placed in provinces and can attack enemy units in adjacent provinces. How well divisions perform in combat depends on various factors, such as the quality of their equipment, the weather, the type of terrain, the skill and traits of the general commanding the divisions, and the morale of both sides. Technologies can be researched to improve equipment and learn new military doctrines, among other things, which often means that a more technologically advanced nation will have an edge in combat. If a division (or a group of divisions) successfully overwhelms an enemy province, they may occupy it. Some provinces may have victory points, which can push a nation closer towards capitulation if occupied. Occupying key provinces within a state allows the occupying power to access the enemy's factories and natural resources in that state. Resistance to occupation within a state can hamper the occupying power's control over it. Late in the game, nations may develop nuclear bombs if they have the proper technology, which can be used to devastate enemy provinces and states.
Kaiserland like Hearts of Iron IV also attempts to recreate the complex diplomatic relationships of the day. Nations may undertake a variety of diplomatic actions; they may sign non-aggression pacts, guarantee the independence of other nations, and offer or request military access, amongst other things. Another key feature of diplomacy is the ability to create a faction or invite other nations to an existing one. Factions represent the main alliances of the era, like the Mittleasgard Pact, Co-East Asian Prosperity Sphere and the Comintern.
This diplomacy is further expanded through the addition of even playing rebellion groups in the nations such as the Black Liberation Army.
Kaiserland does feature some scripted events like HOI4, the game features a "national focus" system that makes fixed events less necessary than in previous installments in the series. Each country in the game has a "focus tree" with various "national focuses" that grant certain effects or trigger events. While some bonuses (like extra factories) are very tangible, others (like improvements to morale) are more abstract. These abstract bonuses are represented by "national spirits" that can be temporary or permanent. Not all national spirits are granted by focuses, and not all spirits are entirely beneficial in nature. Focuses are completed over time; only one focus may be worked on at once, and working on one consumes some political power. Initially, only a handful of key nations, like the German Empire, the Japanese Empire, the Indo-Persian Empire, the Soviet Union, and the United States, had unique focus trees; all other nations shared a generic one. Subsequent updates and DLCs have added focus trees to other nations as well.
Kaiserland also introduces the concept of "world tension," an abstract representation of how close the world is to war on a scale from 0 to 100. Aggressive actions by any nation can increase world tension, while peaceful actions can decrease it. Depending on the circumstances of a nation, like their ideology, a certain level of world tension may be necessary to perform certain actions, like justifying war against another country.
=== Focus Trees ===
The focus trees allow the players (and the AI) to direct the development of their nation. Each country has a focus tree, representing a number of progression paths (branches) available to that nation. These paths may be based on actual historical situations or on alternative historical possibilities. The individual options can range from political, diplomatic and warfare-related focuses to more economic and research-related focuses.
Due to the semi-random nature of the AI it ensures that no two games will play out in precisely the same way. Players wishing to have a more historical-based campaign can choose to do so by ticking the Historical AI Focuses option on the country selection screen (map) just before the start of a new game. It is important to note, however, that player nations are not bound by this and as such their in-game actions can still force the AI to pick somewhat less than historical choices.
