  • What if the British Empire returned in the modern day mod for HOI4? Will the UK be able to handle all its former territories / colonies? How would the world react to a monarchy once again leading the globe? Let me know if you’d like to see something similar with the German Empire.

    About Hearts of Iron 4 - Waking the Tiger:
    Years before Europe went to war, Japan’s imperial ambitions targeted the divided Chinese Republic. Crippled by government paralysis and centuries of fitful development, China is still not a pushover. With vast reserves of manpower and resources, not to mention a giant landmass, can the Republic of China and its temporary ally withstand Japan?

    • @thetechoasis2179
      @thetechoasis2179 Před 5 lety +11

      the UK is a world power. it isn't unchallenged obviously but it is one of the 8 (Eight) Great powers, the UK has tons of overseas territory and under official pre-requisites is still an empire as it has territory outside of it's borders not only that but in every continent. BUT still the empire days were bad in as many ways as it was good the working conditions of empire citizens weren't ideal the empire wasn't as free as modern day UK less civil liberties also while many colonies of the British empire was booming the native populations suffered greatly. having a massive empire doesn't benefit anyone but the rich or the Monarch/Goverment of the original country it causes war creates corruption and having central powers thousands of miles away in a different continent isn't good for the countries that are ruled by it. i'm not exaggerating i live in the UK, nobody but a few would want it. however having a singular country as powerful as the empire used to be would be a benefit to the UK ofc and you'd be stupid if you didn't want a massive economy and military to protect it. ( just like the USA today ) i just don't believe owning 1/3 of the earth landmass is worth it
