I allways laugh at the fact that the European Union is hidden in one of the most cursed runs you can make with germany.

You forgot one path: If you choose Victoria to send her with rest of the family she dies and Von Mackensen returns again.

The best part is that it isn’t just Germany, it’s also the USA and Japan rework

There are 12 ways to play Germany in Hoi4, and they are: At the beginning of the game, let France take you, they will simply switch you to Democratic and then play the German Reich Focus Path and then found the European Union.
Should still work.

This channel is going to be huge in end of 2024. Remember this comment

"you annex everything" the most based way to play germany

“Return to democracy, or reinstate the Kaiserreich. Man this is a really tough choice. You better think long and hard about this.

So now that you’re an empire…”

“And then, when you’ve annexed everything, you face rebellions everywhere and your empire crumbles. It turns out that becoming a tiny minority of the population within your large empire makes it impossible to maintain control.”

Thanks for the shoutout

the thing is germany for a long time was recommended to so many players as the new player nation because more or less you decide when to start to war

Cursed is early justifying on France, parking your army in East Prussia, getting turned democratic via peace treaty, and continuing down the Rhineland path

The fact that you just easily flip Communist by letting Ernst Thalmann speak a few words.

Seeing Atlas come back like

RETURN OF THE KAISER

I live for this.

What I loved about Germany is its simpler focus tree. The focus tree is the reason I played almost only Romania and Germany, the focus trees are simple to understand and it makes the game funnier

3:09 the real reason Germany took over Norway in ww2 was because the allies were trying to take it over first so Germany wouldn’t get iron from Sweden

3:09 I like the fact that in HoI4 you really invade Denmark and Norway, because you can.
While in history it was because British blockaded Norway, so that Germany doesn't get steel (Germany was trading steel from Sweden, and the trading path was: Sweden, Norway, Germany)

We're gonna miss you, simple germany focus tree

I know you said currently, but the old path where you could've done both monarchist and fascist path was the best

24:41 unless Poland joins the allies after they get attacked like in my game which probably leads to the best timeline honestly lol
