interest is misspelled in the bond report.

"New Debt Intereset rate"


(might be wrong thread but long as you get the message)

EDIT by Daxon (BattleGoat) - thanks for noting this. It is now fixed. It will now be found in our next update (not update zero). Cheers

The border between North and South Korea in 1948 was a straight line on the 38th parallel. The Military Demarcation Line wasn't established until 1953.

Edit - also possibly worth mentioning, Kaliningrad was not a separate administrative unit of the USSR, it was part of the Russian SFSR (which is not modelled in the game, but should be). If Kaliningrad is given its own status, the following territories also should:
Abkhaz ASSR
Adyghe AO
Adjar ASSR
Bashkir ASSR
Buryat ASSR
Chechen-Ingush ASSR
Chukotka AO
Chuvash ASSR
Dagestan ASSR
Dzierzynszczyzna AO
Gorno-Altai AO
Jewish AO
Kabardino-Balkar ASSR
Kalmyk ASSR
Karachay-Cherkess AO
Karakalpak ASSR
Khahas AO
Komi ASSR
Marchlewszczyzna AO
Mari ASSR
Mordovian ASSR
Nagorno-Karabakh AO
Nakhchivan ASSR
Northern Ossetian ASSR
South Ossetian AO
Tatar ASSR
Tuva ASSR
Udmurt ASSR
Yakut ASSR


In addition, the Karelo-Finnish SSR existed at the time, a first-level administrative subdivision of the USSR, and should be shown in-game.

Added the Korean border to our task list for review...
15826 - Korean Border


As for Kaliningrad, I believe this falls under our rules for colonies to be a colony. Foreign or overseas holdings are shown as colonies. Colonies are a broad container used for many regions in our game.

Additionally, we chose not to divide up regions further as suggested for gameplay reasons, engine limitations etc. Feel free to comment further.

From the Paradox forums: Crimea was a part of RSFSR in 1949.


On 19 February 1954, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union issued a decree on the transfer of the Crimean Oblast from the RSFSR to the Ukrainian SSR.

As stated on the Paradox forum, Crimea is part of the Ukraine by design. The engine can't transfer it and that's only a few years out.

Maybe there's also a case for depicting the Yugoslav republics, if the SSRs are there...

Still, a pretty major one - Volgograd, USSR. It should be Stalingrad.

Also, colonial Laos shows a Yugoslav flag.

Hawaii wasn't annexed by the U.S. until August 21, 1959. Though if you had it as a colony(territory) I don't know if it would be possible to have it annexed on said day.

This thread is for errata meaning "clearly wrong". Suggestions for changes should go in the Dev forums please.

Thanks for the other two. City names was even wrong on my reference sheet from my research! My fault [_]O
