I’m not 100 percent sure. All I know is that now the area is called Xinjiang, so if this map is from the future, why would it be called sinkiang? Even if it’s a correct name from the past it wouldn’t make sense to use it for the future unless your only source of geography is hoi4

Sinkiang too instead of Xinjiang. I like the game but my god, it is not a completely accurate source for any information pertaining to the non western countries at all, far from it in fact.

Quebec is a bizarre case. Weirdly class conscious, like the french, so rioting over issues is common and labour rights are surprisingly strong. Yet they’re racist as hell. Kind of the opposite of liberalism, IDK if it’s better or worse, but it’s an interesting case. I plan to move there for university next year (hopefully) and get involved in leftist political organizing, and I have to acknowledge that my position as a blonde white man would probably help me with that, as much as I hate to say it. As long as I can get involved and maybe help some people think differently I’d be happy.

Get the ones that apply to the countries you like. I bought “Waking the tiger” for a few bucks for this run, took me a couple tries and maybe 10 odd hours in total, worth the cost. There’s expansions for the Spanish civil war, yugoslavia, etc which are all fun communist play throughs.

Eventually it clicks. It def took me a while but it’s really a curve, once a few things fall into place all the systems fall into place too. It does take a little while for sure though, but then it’s fun cause you can do shit like this. I plan on destroying America in this run.

Also, my manpower is hella low (18k) because I have 2.5% conscription and total mobilization, which gives a -3% recruitable population. I’ll bump it to 5% conscription and have several million to spare, no problem.
