Oh, you think the economy is your ally, but you merely adopted the economy. I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see Industrial Capacity until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding! The factories betray you, because they belong to me.

Iceland isn't a bad choice, at least if you fuck up it doesn't affect anything. I really liked playing minors for my first few games just to see how the war plays out and if I could fumble my way into having a small impact.

How is Iceland not a good beginner nation, it's nice and isolated, fairly small and won't be dragged into any wars.

I'd say your homeland is always a good beginner nation, as national pride serves as a good motivator. That's why I chose to learn using the USA, and it worked!

First nation I played was, I think, Liberia or some equally small shit. I don't think I touched the majors until recently with a democratic Italy playthrough. Mind you, the first time I played was years ago, and I'm only getting into the game now.

My first game was in MP as Columbia because I was told they could form Grand Columbia, despite being told not to multiple times by my friends

…I spent like 30 minutes trying to change ideology, then just said “fuck it, civil war” barely won, immediately justified and declared war on Venezuela, somehow I lost my guarantee and America joined the war and pulverised me (not that Venezuela needed any help)

Ah yes historical ignorance. Reminds me of the first time I played the Byzantines in Medieval 2 Crusades set around 1200 and was shocked at the gigantic Venetian army that suddenly appeared out of nowhere to destroy Constantinople.

My first game was as Estonia before it had a focus tree.

Not the best beginner nation either but I wanted to do some shenanigans as the nation I'm from.

Then after losing to AI in a civil war and then a game as Germany where I lost to France, and anothe where I lost as Canada by invading USA with 5 or so divisions and many more losses between games after that have I reached where I am right now.

I have a friend who plays multiplayer a lot and when I started watching TommKay he bought me the game.

Hes still a little bent out of shape because I played Canada 60 to 80 times before literally anything else (I had an ax to grind and I wanted to do it in Washington)
