  Playable Countries [ ]

  The map splits up playable countries into groups, and puts them like this:

  

  South East Asia(/6)

  Asia [ ]

  Asia has 17 countries playable, and the one of the only doubly landlocked playable nations (Ma-Clique). These nations are:

  British Odisha - Leader at first is Lawrence John Lumley Dundas

  Japan - Leader at first is Saito Makoto

  Korea - Leader at first is Kazushige Ugaki

  Ma Clique - Doubly Landlocked-Leader at first is Ma Zhongying

  Manchukuo - Landlocked-Leader at first is Henry Pu Yi

  Mongolia - Landlocked-Leader at first is Anandyn Amar

  Nationalist China-Leader at first is North India -Landlocked-Leader at first is Yashwant Rao Holkar II

  Pakistan-Leader at first is Muhammad Ali Jinnah

  South China - Leader at first is Chen Jitang

  South India - Leader at first is Osman Ali Khan, Asaf Jah VII

  Tibet - Landlocked - Leader at first is Thubten Gyatso

  Turkey - Leader at first is Kemal Ataturk

  Xinjiang - Landlocked- Leader at first is Ma Shaowu

  Ma Clique is doubly landlocked as they have to go through two nations to have ocean access(from the start of the game):Xinjiang-Pakistan, Tibet-British Odisha, Tibet-Burma, Sichuan-Communist China, Sichuan-Nationalist China, Sichuan-South China, Mengjiang-Mukden, Mongolia-Siberia.

  There is usually a lot of action in Asia from the amount of countries involved, so if you are a beginner, stay away from this region.

  Central America [ ]

  There are only 3 playable nations in the region, which are

  Caribbean - Leader at first is Ramon Grau San Martin

  There are 12 playable nations in Europe, which are

  Finland - Leader at first is Toivo Mikael Kivimaki

  France - Leader at first is Albert Lebrun

  Germany - Leader at first is Franz von Papen

  Greece- Leader at first is Eleftherios Venizelos

  Italy - Leader at first is Benito Mussolini

  Poland - Leader at first is Aleksander Prystor

  Romania - Leader at first is Iuliu Maniu

  Spain - Leader at first is Niceto Alcala Zamora

  Sweden - Leader at first is Per Albin Hansson

  United Kingdom - Leader at first is Ramsay MacDonald

  Yugoslavia - Leader at first is Alexander I Karadordevic

  There is usually a large coalition of European nations at the beginning of the game, and Europe is usually the first area to be filled up in any World At War game.

  Finland has Russian provinces, but is not included in Russia anyway (The provinces are Murmansk, Apatity, Tetrino, Loukhi, and Kem). Playing as this country, be aware of Sweden and Arkhangelsk, as Sweden borders you, and you are close to Arkhangelsk's capital of Leningrad(which is not a port).

  As France, you are surrounded by potential enemies, and you need to make allies or join a European Coalition fast.

  In my opinion, Europe isn't a good continent. You don’t have much room to expand, and often the African, Asian, and North American coalitions become more powerful then you and attack you.

  Middle East [ ]

  There are 4 playable countries in the Middle East, which are

  Iraq - Leader at first is Nuri as-Said

  Persia - Leader at first is Reza Shah Pahlavi

  Saudi Arabia - Leader at first is Ibn Saud

  Syria - Leader at first is Muhammad Ali al-Abid

  There are enough countries in this region that a coalition can be formed with all of these countries, and there will still be room for one more member. Most of the time, this region is either inactive, or fighting amongst itself to make this coalition a reality.

  North Africa [ ]

  There are 10 playable countries in North Africa, of which there are:

  Algeria - Leader at first is Messali Hadj

  Egypt - Leader at first is Fuad I

  Ethiopia - Leader at first is Haile Selassie I.

  Libya - Leader at first is Idris I

  North Sudan-Leader at first is John Loader Maffey

  South Sudan -Leader at first is William Donovan Stamer

  Upper Volta -Leader at first is Gabriel Descemet
