There's a decision to disband irregular or form irregular. These are awful troops you CAN disband with the decision window. It has conditions tho, I can't remember on the top of my head, but I know you can do that pretty soon after the ethiopian war is dealt with swiftly. The other "un-disbandable" unit is the one with the cap, which, has a 12/12 cap (which can be expanded), and they are not bad troop to garrison in ports anyway, so might as well keep them and do that. Russia also has those NKVD troops that can't be disbanded right off the bat, but can later with the according focus, for exemple.

I've done the democratic monarchy before once, just to try if I could get a communist Roman Empire. It worked, but the progress towards 70% communist support for the civil was very slow and painful without access to the default decisions. Also it was absolutely not worth it. Paradox does not want you to do it. Once the civil war triggers, you do become communist and keep the focus tree, but all your left advisors go to the other side which can go either democratic or also communist.

Napoleon being short is actually a myth. He's on the short side if you measure him by today's standards, but people in general used to be shorter, so he was in and around the average at the time
One more tip for the motorization thing- afaik, if you add a new army to a field marshal, they will not update to the field marshal's motorization. You have to either change them beforehand or cycle the field marshal again once they're added.
I’ve seen the joke so many times that now I wanted to clarify it. The shitty cavalry-tank division was not an actual tank division to begin with. Its name is “divisione celere” which literally means “fast division”. Italian tank divisions will come later, and will be much more similar (at least theoretically) to the other majors ones
6:05 Stalin is justifying on you as part of the "Demand Bessarabia" focus, which fires an event to cede eastern Romania to the Soviets, and gives them a Take Claim war goal if you refuse. The event just goes to whoever the current controller is (in this case, you and AI Ukraine).
2:40 holy shit how long has that been in the game? I have 2000 hours and manually going through upping all the supply hubs has been the Bain of my hoi4 existence since no step back came out.
I think the worst italian path is easily Italian Hegemony in the italo balbo/ dino grandi path. It locks you out of all of the formables for a national spirit which is ok at best.
Okay, so Italy became the Kingdom of Italy to become the United Italian States to become Res Publica Romana and after all that, it is the European Union. That's quite a lot of name changes made there.
