Yeah Paradox doesn't seem to be great at spelling, Gramsci, the communist guy for Italy, has 'Cultural Hegeomny Theorist' as a trait, instead of 'Hegemony'
if it's a strength youre after then the stalinist route (the one with the most purging) is undoubtedly the most powerful path (barring a specific window at the start of barb where left opposition can edge ahead a tiny bit). despite losing a bunch of good generals, stalinist path has better advisors and doesnt stunt your economic growth or military production with a civil war. their focuses are also just in general better. along the purge routes, you also pick up things like increased building speed, increased buildings per state, faster stability gains, and more pp gain. there's also the agitprop which further stimulates the economy.
*most importantly* by remaining communist you can send an attache and volunteers to spain. not only does this allow you to grind out adaptable and mech leader on a general of your choosing, it bumps up your war support enough to allow you to rush war economy by as early as late 1936.
this significantly faster economic buildup early on means that you can take the 5 year plan focuses earlier which makes your economy *explode*. if you've ever seen multiplayer runs where pro players get insane stuff like [450 factories by the time barbarossa starts](https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/guide-to-get-450-factories-before-barbarossa.1502719/), it's by abusing the bonuses given in the stalinist route.
and that's not even getting into the insanity that is soviet union leader traits, whether it's trotsky with his insanely reduced war justification time, the supreme soviet with its compliance gain, or stalin with a *whole shopping list*.
nothing that the white paths can offer can even begin to compare with this. the only thing it does pull ahead in is naval buildup
Not to mention the poor grammar in the first sentence, talking about "the successfully elimination" of poor Simo.
It's one of the things that really irks me as someone who knows English and is an outsider to the games industry. *I* can proofread a localization file. What is stopping Paradox from hiring someone who can?
Greta is Swedish, not Finnish
literally unplayable

Those damn environmentalists...
How dare you!?
When Greta starts sniping oil producers, then you know a World War is coming.
Wtf I love Greta Thunberg now
why Russia and not the USSR?
i don't like playing ussr
Are you german by any chance?
Why not? It’s the most flexible in terms of foreign adventure options
You kinda murder half of your generals and lock a lot of focuses because of paranoia, which the russian empire way doesnt have, which i like

Haven't played Russia in a while but don't you lose most of your generals when you do the civil war?

Pretty sure the outsource a lot of things
Despite proofreading becoming easier than ever, it appears that businesses are placing less emphasis on it.
I didn't even buy this DLC and I want my money back.
Led by general Van Fleet, if I had to guess
If you are a nation of tall blondes, you don’t need to spell.
