If modding the UK's Focus Tree were part of the mod, there's historical basis for a Focus to ask Ireland to join. In June 1940, Churchill's cabinet Minister of Health Malcolm MacDonald was sent to Dublin for a series of meetings and authorized to 'give back' Northern Ireland if Ireland would enter the war on the Allied side. And, though they made preparation for invasion by either Germany or Britain, they quietly coordinated with the UK on Plan W to counter a potential Nazi invasion of Ireland under the cleverly codenamed 'Operation Green'.Įn./wiki/Irish_neutrality_during_World_War_IIĮn./wiki/Operation_Green_(Ireland) This didn't come true - Ireland maintained neutrality despite Nazi bombings and their shipping (like the MV Kerlogue) being hit by Axis and Allies alike. But, near as I can tell, never asked for the bargain. This was just an idea i really wanted to get out there into the community, and i hope to see a lot of awesome mods Part of any of the trees would call immigrants back to the homeland so they can fight for Ireland. for example it is the second most widely spread ethnicity in the united states. However there are a lot of irish immigrants all over the world.

Man power: I'm not sure what irelands man power is like but historically it wasn't that great during world war 2, since there was a revolution and a civil war in the 1920s. Northern Ireland: part of any of the trees could be a for Ireland to demand Northern Ireland from the British so the island could be whole, this could also work for the isle of man. it could start with volunteers in foreign armies then a full blown war. this would be a huge help for the axis since it would surround the english homeland and take them out.ģ)communist route: this would have Ireland which at its heart is a socialist nation join the committerm, and side with Russia.Ĥ) Democracy route: this would have Ireland join the allies and focus on taking out the axis. It could also be celtic factionsĢ)Facist route: siding with he germans this tree would have Ireland join the Axis and go to war with England and the allies. The faction would try and focus on helping smaller countries stay independent. At the time many in Ireland saw England as an imperialistic bully. This faction would focus on staying neutral and countries like Portugal and Switzerland would be awesome to be able to add. The focus tree would have 4 distinct parts.ġ) Creation of a new faction.

I have no real modding experience, but i am a history buff who loves this time period and knows a lot about this time period especially irish history.Ī change to the Ireland focus tree would be awesome, they stayed neutral in the world war 2 though had volunteers in the allies.
