FAQ

Will INSERT COUNTRY HERE get an anarchist or monarchist alt-history focus tree.
- Eventually... probably...
Why is Democratic now called Liberalism?
- This change was done in the early stages of the mod at the request of many commentators. Calling the ideology "democratic" implies the other ideologies cannot be democratic. Liberalism, in the traditional (i.e., not American) sense, means a supporter of individual liberties and capitalism. Therefore, in this sense, even conservatives are Liberals.
Why is the ideology called Socialism instead of Anarchism or something else?
- In political philosophy, socialism refers to any ideology that supports collective control over the means of production. In game, socialism is a group of far-left ideologies not associated with Leninism. Therefore, in-game socialism includes all forms of anarchism, council communism, democratic socialism, and more. It would not make sense to call the ideology "Anarchism" if it includes forms of Marxism and democratic socialism.
Why is Communism called Leninism?
- The Socialist ideology includes forms of communism so it wouldn't make sense to keep it called Communism. It is called Leninism because it now just includes forms of socialism associated with Lenin (e.g., Trotskyism, Maoism, Marxism-Leninism, etc.)
Why is Neutrality still an ideology?
- Eventually, it will be removed. It takes more effort than you'd think it would to remove an ideology.
Why does the mod show as "Salty Anarchist Mod" in my launcher instead of something else?
- Originally, the mod only included anarchism. The mod expanded in scope to include other forms of libertarian socialism and monarchism. I cannot change the name without reuploading the mod and making everyone resubscribe.
Why are monarchies purple and socialists black?
- Purple has been associated with royalty since the Roman Empire. On the other hand, yellow is the traditional color of Liberalism. Socialists are black because that is the traditional color of anarchism and red was already taken by Leninism.
Why isn't the UK monarchist?
- The portrait you see as the head of government rather than the head of state. The monarch is the head of state while the Prime Minister is the head of government.
- It would break the balance of the game. The US would not be able to join the Allies due to their idea, "Home of the Free," and liberal countries wouldn't want to join the Allies when the Axis/Comintern declares war on them.
- The monarchy didn't have much power anyway in the time period (e.g., King Edward VIII's abdication).
I'm a salty ancap. Why isn't anarcho-capitalism included in the mod?
- Anarcho-capitalism wasn't an ideology until around the 1970s, well outside of the game's timeframe.
- No, just no.

Ancaps when they realize that anarchism isnt just "No government" and is actually the abolition of all hierarchies (Corporations are the epitome of hierarchy). Ancaps when all the Megacorporation violate the NAP, hire mercanaries and enslave every one.
