The thing is Mengukuo (or Mengjiang as it was actually called) is that it propably will never get a focus tree as it was just a buffer state with no interesting history. Although since it is in the mongalian part of China you could do something interesting. But with the generic focus tree you at least have 5 more focuses than Italy. Yes, the generic focus tree has more focuses than Italy's focus tree. And some of Italy's focuses are just ripped from the generic focus tree.
it's prince was related to genghis khan so they could do something with mongol empire or sum shit Edit: Checked and he was also the same clan as genghis khan.
@@idiotadebilbezmozg bro I'm probably related to genghis kahn for all I know the prince being related to him means nothing. although menkukou's land if I am right is what today consists of inner Mongolia so giving both of them similar trees could maybeee work as like one of the between big dlcs expansions. Menkukou Mongolia Finland this could work although if anything it's gonna be some nordic countries focus trees I bet
I wouldn't be surprised if eventually Paradox releases one of those "Country Packs" like Battle for the Bosporus, giving some of the Asian Focus Trees a bit of an update. Mongolia, Siam, Tibet, and the Philippines could be interesting. Give Mengkukuo a side focus to steal the Mongolian focus tree should they get some troops. As well as reduce the Italian Focus Tree down to 5 Focuses >Ethiopia is Hard >Greece is Hard >Africa is Hard >Cry to Germany >Lose
Fun fact(s): Mengkukuo didn't really exist. It was part of Manchuria and Manchuria was called Manchukuo 'land of the Manchu' by the Japanese, in an effort to politically separate them from China as well as further justifying Manchu rule in the region, despite the Manchu being a minority group at the time. What the game calls Mengkukuo was an ethnically Mongolian area of Manchuria with a different administration. I don't think you could call it a semi-independent state or an autonomous zone. It was just a region under a different administration created to ensure the cultural and religious beliefs of the Mongolian people were maintained and respected. It's interesting that the game lets you play as this different administration. It adds a tiny bit more flavour to the region but in order for it to make sense, they'd need a unique focus where in one of the paths, they can unify the Mongolian people and such.
I know Manchuria has a focus under Obedience where they quietly annex Mengjiang without asking Japan's approval for the exact reasons you're talking about. I wish the obedience trees were better in general. I like the idea of administering part of the evil empire, then trying to manage it sufficiently as the whole collapses around your ears.
Prince Demchugdongrub was a real guy though. He was an actual Mongol nobleman distantly related to the Qing and he led the Mongol military government that was allied to the Japanese.
A couple things about Mengjiang I think should be known is that at first yes it was an autonomous zone that was somewhat classified as part of manchukuo, but it’s not just that, there were two other autonomous zones. The war with china progressed and the three were United with the first in order to create Mengjiang the “United autonomous zone.” While at first independent from manchukuo, as it had its own coat of arms, currency, army, and presumably an anthem that is still yet to be found. It eventually became an autonomous zone under the reorganized government of China, though it was still its own country essentially. Mengjiang wasn’t ever really part of manchukuo, and if anything was part of the RGC. As the comment above me states, Prince Demchugdongrub was in fact the leader of Mengjiang and not just some dude in charge of a zone. He was royalty and is still seen today as a figure for mongolian nationalism and independence.
You know that Its gonna be pain when the country that you are playing has a leader called Demchugdongrub! I think that ISP may have finally lost his sanity!
@@fanis1414 Yeah but the Baltics still had very large historical problems within their nations, various influential political and military leaders, and a history around the Baltic Sea that could be used as a basis for a focus tree. Mengjiang existed for a very short amount of time, wasn't even a country (it was a separate administration within Manchuria), and had literally nothing happen within its existence.
@@sheacorduroy5565 yes but, the leader has “spirit of genghis” and is Mongolian and similar to how Manchuko can restore the Qing they could get a Mongol Empire focus
*Isorrowproductions play the Baltics with Alextherambler and drew durnil you promised us a game of the baltics but now the new dlc gives them focus trees so do it!!!*
Luxemburg or Liberia too have an interesting history, neither country will ever get a focus tree though, since even with one, they're just too weak to matter.
I kinda do wish Tannu Tuva, Mongolia and Mengkukuo got a tiny unique Focus Tree that if they finish it gives them access to the Chinese one. Sort of like Vichy France.
@@KAPTAINmORGANnWo4eva eh, it would take a pretty long time to do both the pre warlord focuses, the warlord focuses and the balance of power thing for democratic china and then finally getting the focus tree
The one thing that has me laughing is that you're doing these nation's in alphabetical order and you get placed in the same region in close proximity often in repeat or near repeat campaigns.
Menkukuo in Road to 56 is playable, since you can be independent from the start and can core states in Shanxi and Mongolia. Shame the mod isn't yet updated.
i was spain then i with wining civil then sent voll to germmany then i do did war with france then war with britan (took both) then boss ussr and usa :(((((((((((((( then unally axis the took the world i'm in pain...... (took 28 hours)
For anyone that doesnt know, *SSSR* is just the original version of *USSR* Now, could someone please explain why is the Soviet Union at war with the Soviet Union?
Here's a tip to make you laugh. If you double tap multiple times at the beginning of the video. You can hear ISP sound very very funny. Enjoy this however you will.
You think this puppet state would’ve had a focus on conquering Mongolia since it’s basically Inner Mongolia. And since the Soviet Union collapsed and it’s guaranteed gone in this game a perfect chance to take it. But taking Manchuko is good enough.

We just don't like Italy.

Mongolia should get one too tho
