countries which gained / lost during ww2.
2 versions. The second one includes changes immediately prior to war, like the transpher of Iskanderun region to Turkey, Munchen treaty etc.

red - loss
blue - gain
black - country didn't exist at the start of the war.

lesser shade - lesser loss.

the problem is with Czechoslovakia. it did lose Subcarpathian Ruthenia, but it was neither part of Czechia nor Slovakia.

I didn't take into account second Vienna arbitrate, as it took place during the war.
Serbia lost territory due to creation of Macedonia. I'm not sure if I should take this into account, as it wasn't direct result of the war.

recent polish presidential elections - again, the former prussian border is clearly visible.
 
I think a million jobs are going to open up during the next 10 years due to the "40s people" retiring.
 
Yep, there will also (unfortunately) in Sweden be a new political era as the 40's peoples children are spoiled.

You mean their grandchildren? :lol:

So, all that immigration isn't looking so bad now is it Europeans?

:p Don't look at me. My parents met and conceived me in Sweden, so if it wasn't for Sweden's immigration policies I wouldn't exist.

I dread this (mass retirement). The effect on the economy will be devastating with all that tax money going away. I'm unemployed myself but at least in my field (IT) companies don't hire when the need people but when they find people they're satisfied with. If they can't find anyone they'll just don't expand.
 
You've got a point.

But when I become a doctor, there'll be a nice shortage of them :3
 
China should be allied to Soviet. Just look at how many major power it got against itself.

Well, the campaign is focused on the United States. I think it is implied that most countries stayed neutral and one by one threw in their lots with the Soviets or had regime changes as the USA and the major allies got conquered. That I imagine would be the case with India and most of Africa. China would be aligned with the USA since that is also what ended up happening IRL around the time of the game (1972)

China is an interesting point, actually. It never appeared in any of the Red Alert series as a faction or a battle location and the only reference to the country was the campaign map in Red Alert 2. Now, Red Alert 1 started with Einstein travelling back in time to kill Hitler and Stalin was the aggressor. IIRC he actually invaded both Europe and China and he was later defeated. However, we don't know whether China actually turned communist and, if it did, remained communist after the war. And while we know it was sympathetic towards the Allies we don't know whether China joined the war against the USSR in Red Alert 2. In fact, the main Allied power in Asia seemed to be Korea, which had its own unique unit, a sizable navy and actually attempted an invasion of Siberia during the Soviet campaign.
 
Old age dependency rate in the Baltic Sea Region:

It divides Poland almost the same way as the election results.


I think the map is flawed. If you look closely, the smallest dots are always the same colour in voivodships. So I think it's rather an average for a voivodship than representation of specific cities.
