Because Monarchy Week was pushed forward a week, this is the last video made in 2024. Also, there's two ways to go about playing this path, the other way requires going through the shared focuses with Belgium. Which I thought would take too long, but there's always another run.
5:02 I just realized Febuary 29th doesn't exist in hoi4 due to the amount of days on the national focus (it made me wonder if there is a game where leap years do exist)
A video about congos path staying with belgium also coming? Really like those congo videos, because every hoi4-youtuber mostly does the obvious path with the obvious nations.
An idea I've had would be a focus that if you're democratic and Belgium has capitulated then you could do a focus called "Belgians in the Congo" which brings you into the War on the Allied side and access to Belgian templates with some off-map factories as the Belgians who don't wish to surrender join the fight for democracy under a Congolese flag. It might be a bit silly but could be fun and games should be fun.
Just one thing, I would recomend doing the central part of the pierre path. With like three focuses you can get a lot of decisions for reasources, withtout wasting much time.
I know I'd always be hiring Patrice Lumumba. Always weird seeing very relevant post war leaders as advisors. Democratic should really have a Rwanda-Burundi solution though imo probably not one via cores
It'd be great if Democratic and Communist Congo had a joint focus path to make it easier to form the United States of Latin Africa, by giving you war goals on Portugal and France. If it were coded to give war goals on whoever owned Central Africa (which might be Vichy or even Germany), rather than on Free France specifically, that'd be perfect. As you implied, a deal with the Allies, "give Central Africa to us, we'll help you kick the Axis out" would be great, with an appropriate national spirit that would decrease training time and add military factories for making guns. Of course, there's one very simple thing they could do that would make the Belgian Congo much more fun to play: make it so you DON'T have to be a puppet in order to do the shared Congo/Belgium Focus Tree. You still can only do the Congolese focuses, but you can vastly improve the industry while being independent.

bro suggests hoi4 players to play democratic like bro we want war tear and blood
This democratic path is actually fun tho like the paraguyan democratic path where you can goad bolivia and get a war goal
Okay democracy week it is.
@@Bucket-f9z so we are talking about real democracy? hell yeah
In my humble opinion you should always and only play Democracy cuz it's the best ideology (It honestly sucks and I only put torment on myself).
You have to play your cards right. You have the best occupation law, a big chance to get an Allied guarantee, and easy way of joining the Allies.
I vote for more democracy
Democracy has one crutial pros: you don't have to fight USadA and United Kingdom
@soulofwincent NO FRAGMENTATION KOMI WC!!!!!
Its good in the way it limits you and therefore is more of a challange than fascism/communism
Will you ever do a us focus tree review
Maybe

I honestly think staying with belgium and playing democratically is actually pretty good.
8:49 you can get rid of it if you go down the focuses under centralize the state before you go independent

thanks for this video, i find i always need a hand playing the belgian congo

im pretty sure you can get rid of UVN if you dont rush to independence
I like to take the Belgian joint focuses its decent for building the economy
I play democracies in hoi4 because I want to.
This vid your were super hyper lol
No
better question, why play Congo at all?
