I'd say nazi germany, fascist or communist USA, or soviet union.
Any of the big three: Fascist or Commie USA, Soviets or Germany.
It's easier to do it with germany because you're closer to both allies and soviet union. If you strike early enough you can quickly handle the allies and get to the soviet union easily. Then all you have to worry about is the USA and it's nothing to handle them after you got land from the allies and the soviet union. By the time you do a world conquest your pc will be crying though.
All of the "big countries" are the easiest depending on how you wanna use them

United States - The go to easiest one as once you end the Great Depression you have an unmatched industrial base to start producing equipment and thanks to the new infastructure mechanic allowing you to increase resource production through infastructure level you can basically save yourself a bunch of civilian factories by going self reliant. There's also the fact if you flip to fascism then you can go warring against the rest of America who will stand no chance against you as most don't even have actual navies to defend themselves with.

Germany - Putting aside following history you can actually do things differently to make life easier on yourself and gain more power. You can forget about the Western front altogether and only war against the Eastern powers giving you access to Russias manufacturing capabilities without angering the Allies. As of the newest DLC you can also flip to Democratic and aim to establish the European Union (No joke) through friending your neighbours

Russia - They can be easy if you take a few precautions. Make sure you do the Great Purge right and set up a fall back line on the Western Front in a terrain which is an advantage to you to lure Germany in and massacre their divisions on your terms and not on Hitlers Panzers terms. You can also just befriend Germany and you two go nuts on the rest of the world who will not be able to do much to you as you are two super giants with your backs to each other

United Kingdom - You can take part in WWII or simply stay out of it and turn your back on every else and focus on using your empires reach to strike at some of the more luxurious countries that the other powers can't.

Japan - How easy or hard it is depends on how you handle the Sino - Japanese War really. Getting bogged down for too long will chew up your manpower and equipment and risk the Soviets coming in via national focus or to aid Communist China. If you secure China through and put in the investment you will have a good industry base.

France - If you want easy mode go fascist and join the Axis doing so basically screws up any chance the Allies have of fighting in Europe. You are then free to gobble up Spain (which can often go Republican as of the latest update) Your biggest threat here will be naval invasions by the Allies and Italy screwing up and giving the Allies a foothold.

Canada - Okay, I know this is going to sound funny but Canada through good planning and with a little bit of luck can become a superpower and give you easy mode. To do this you just need to right off the bat go to war with the US. Early game US has a weak army and debuffs on everything. If you capture the US then the entire US industry base becomes yours and as an added bonus as unlike the US you do not have the Great Depression debuff the full power of said industry is activated. Not bad for a small country

Any country can become a world power, but that's not what the OP asked. You can conquer the world as anybody too, but some are harder than others. Canada shouldn't be on the list whatsoever because they don't have enough manpower or industry at the start of the game. France has enough manpower and industry at the start, but there are still easier countries for a WC.

Personally i'd say the easiest country to do a WC is the USA. Large manpower pool, large industry, and starts with a pretty big Navy. Other than the debuffs at the start, they have imo the best setup for a WC. With Russia and Germany you'll need a fleet to get across the Atlantic if you're at war with the USA, with Russia you can invade Alaska so it's easier, but still the point being neither Germany or Russia starts off with a big enough fleet to do anything for a while.
Canada shouldn't be on the list whatsoever because they don't have enough manpower or industry at the start of the game.

Canada is on the list because with a bit of skill and luck you can use what forces Canada has plus any you can rush through training to overrun the US.

As I explained at the start of the game the US is extremely weak. The Great Depression completely takes out Americas ability to fight properly hence why the game has an achievement for Canada to invade the US.

I've never personally tried it but I've heard if you micromanage the army and divide up your forces on the West and Eastern sea fronts then attack in one area you can break through and the US will rush to try to patch up that gap and they'll do this by taking troops off the other front. Then when the troops are gone you have the other front attack and overrun the US capping victory points and forcing the US to capitilate

It might be harder to do now though with the latest patch screwing up soft attack and making Human side AI go full idiot in how it fights but if you can pull it off then Canada is an industrial powerhouse controlling a vast majority of the worlds resources and South America has nobody to protect them allowing you to seize even more of the worlds resources.

Easiest country in the game is as you say the US, you have a huge industrial base once you deal with the Great depression, there's no requirement for you to rush to prepare anything for World War 2 and the only person to attack you historically is Japan and even then the AI will only aim to seize your small islands then try to hold them.

Next I would say is the UK in terms of easy mode because they begin with the most powerful navy and the UK is very easy for a Human player to hold as the AI thankfully doesn't make use of the Paratrooper Zerg when attacking the UK. As the UK all you need to do is gather all your ships together and make a massive fleet and you can massacre the Kreigsmarine early on as Germany will not be able to replace any of its big ships and the subs stand no chance against your Destroyers

New players wanting to get the hang of things go for the US

From what I understand you make Canada Fascist and try to get Mexico on your side.

Divide your Army into West and East. Americas major cap points are on the East coast.

Attack from one side to draw the limited US troops into battle there while the other side defends and wears down their side. Assuming you make a breakthrough the US should divert more troops to that side to stop you having free run of the country. When that happens and troops have peeled off from the side you are defneding on order those troops to go on the offensive and try to rush that sides cap points.

If you manage to win Mexico to your side you can try to call them in on the war to cause hell for the US by opening up a South front which they will have nobody guarding on.

Your army should adopt the same tactics you use as Chinese countries against the Japanese. With the exception of your starting divisions who will be your "Elites" focus only on production of Rifles and make divisions with small width who need little manpower and equipment because with the US as big as it is the more divisions you have in the field in general means you can tie down US divisions and encircle them.

Just remember the important bit. If the US end the Great Depression you have a very short amount of time before you will lose as the US will regain full control of its industry and spit out more rifles than it has troops
