Kaiserreich Submod - The Giant Awakens Reborn

Updated for HOI4 1.16.5 and Kaiserreich 1.4.5

Changelog:
Added the Canada Crisis tree to the Pacific States
Altered the targeting of the focus "The Free Continent", so even nations in factions can be targeted as long as said nation is not part of the Big 5 (Entente, Internationale, Reichspakt, Co-Prosperity Sphere, and Moscow Accord)

Back in 2019, a user named Boristus created the submod "The Giant Awakens", a submod that allowed the United States to form its own faction in the event Canada refused to return New England after the 2ACW. But it was left to rot, not helped that Boristus lost interest in Paradox games during the pandemic.
Until now.


After the civil war, if Canada refuses to give New England back, it opens up an alternate start, The Canada Crisis. Taking this focus will still allow you to go Fortress America or Rebuild the Monroe Doctrine, but will also allow you to go down A World Safe For Democracy.

The original version of the mod only allowed Canada Crisis to be taken after the New England fiasco, but this version gives another option: if Canada decided to back either the Union State, New England, or the Pacific States.


Taking the focus A World Safe For Democracy will start the event chain "The Carver Commission." In it, information about the Internationale and Reichspakt potentially backing other civil war factions will be released to the American public, and let's say Americans aren't happy, already angry after the Entente stabbed them in the back.


After fighting the minor reactionary and revolutionary governments of the New World, The Washington Conference shall be held, and the American president shall announce the formation of a new alliance, one designed for protecting Democracy worldwide.
Democracies all across the globe can be invited to rally together against the threats of the other major powers.


Although conflict with the Entente is not inevitable, it would still be best to prepare for the worst. That is why a new Rainbow War Plan will become available after the foundation of the Alliance.


After finishing off Canada and Manifesting your Destiny, the provinces and territories might offer admission as a state. This will allow you to core all of Canada, after a period of five years post-annexation.
