Hey everyone, I'm fairly new to this game and I'm wondering how I can turn a country communist. Could someone please tell me, thank you.

After communism is discovered sometime after 1860, you can use national focus to increase communist party loyalty in your capital, then wait for a revolution and let the rebels occupy it until the you get the demands of the communists.

K, thx for the help.

In general terms, a high reform desire will help, so avoid making too many Social reforms. You need to let rebels occupy the capital for a whole year to 'flip' to a Communist Dictatorship. Don't create Puppet/Satellite states on your borders, because they'll helpfully come and kill all the rebels for you (thus stoppign the rebellion) even if you tell them not to.

Click on your capital (for example) province and then the icon at the top.

If you are socalist (Which comes in at the same time as communism) and you are a HMS goverment you can change idelogy to communist.

Sounds like alot of extra work.

Unemployed craftsmen will help speed up the process, closing factories basically lol

I mostly play as the US. I find it more fun to get the Socialist Party elected. It is pretty easy to do with Universal voting and proportional voting system. Add in a little womens sufferage and pick + socalist choice in events.

After year 1870 do social reforms which majority of activists doesn't want - it'll turn them communists soon enough.
More socialistic (then communistic) agitation + socialistic choice event => more activists => more revolutioneers.

This page should help inform you.

Off the top of my head, having a revolution does it. Getting it peacefully seems to be a hassle though.

Don't forget to place your troops in neighbour country, so rebels could take your capital easily.
It's important to have strong army, to be ready for any invasion from dirty capitalists when your relationships with whole world (including military alliances) will go to point zero.
