The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (more commonly “the United Kingdom,” “the UK,” “Great Britain,” or simply “Britain”) was the principal power of the Allies in World War II. In 1939, the UK honored its guarantees to 波兰 by declaring war on 德意志国. After the fall of 法国, the United Kingdom was the only Allied nation left in Europe until 意大利's surprise invasion of 希腊王国 led the Greeks to fully join the Allies. It remained the only one of the “Big Three” (Great Britain, the Soviet Union, and the United States) in the war until 1941 when Germany invaded the 苏维埃联盟. The United Kingdom was heavily engaged in the Western European, Atlantic, Mediterranean, African, and Southeast Asian theaters.
Geography
The country lies in Western Europe and consists of England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man. The United Kingdom also owns a lot of overseas territories and colonies around the world. This includes huge parts of Africa, Newfoundland and Labrador and direct control of the strategic locations of Gibraltar, Malta, and the Suez Canal and the rich colony of British Malaya. The United Kingdom directly borders 爱尔兰 to the west, but is otherwise separated from European nations by seas. The North Sea lies to the North East, while the English Channel separates mainland Europe. To the west lies the Atlantic Ocean. The United Kingdom indirectly borders a lot of countries through overseas territories like 加拿大 to the west, which borders Newfoundland and Labrador. It also borders 西班牙 through Gibraltar, and 法国 and 意大利 through the African colonies. The United Kingdom is dominated by the Scottish highlands in the North. In the south hills, plains and urban areas dominate. The United Kingdom has a lot of urban areas including London, Manchester, Glasgow, and Liverpool.

英国国策树可以被分为5条主线和6条分支:
- 密码炸弹/有限的军备重整线
- 这条线给予科研加成、工厂和一个额外的科研槽
- 该分支给予空军和海军科研加成,并提供一批空军基地和海军船坞
- 巩固不列颠帝国线
- 这条线以殖民地工业发展和关键领土防御为中心,最终目标是建立一个帝国联邦,以使联合王国吞并所有殖民地并获得这些地区的核心。
- 该分支中“强化东亚”一侧着重于亚洲殖民地发展,影响 中华民国并获得对 日本的战争目标。“英联邦关系”一侧着重于 英属印度自治领的发展、自治的推进或使其独立,并建立帝国联邦。
- 该分支着重于地中海殖民地的发展,威胁巴尔干国家和 土耳其,并获得对 意大利的战争目标。
- 平稳航行线
- 国策树中的 民主主义 线。联合王国将延续民主并维持现有的政府结构。
- 这条 民主主义线的分支着重于干涉(并傀儡)斯堪的纳维亚地区和比荷卢三国,保卫 伊拉克和 伊朗,并最终与 苏维埃联盟和 德意志国开战。
- 重新审视殖民政策线
- 这条线将重点放在去殖民化,实际上相当于解散大英帝国,保留一些殖民地作为傀儡,以换取在英国本土获得更多人力和工业,使英国集中精力处理欧洲事务。
- 这条 民主主义线的分支着重于让温斯顿·丘吉尔更早上台,终止绥靖政策,根除和平主义,动员国家备战,然后获得对石油出口国和造成世界紧张的欧洲主要国家的战争目标,并正当化对其他 民主主义国家的战争借口
- 调整航线线
- 该主线会通过将政府意识形态转变为 君主主义、法西斯主义或 共产主义 来改变英国政府结构。
- 共产主义分支将使英国成为共产主义国家,开启与 苏维埃联盟结盟的大门或组建自己的阵营并向欧洲国家传播 共产主义,最终目标是走向针对 德意志国和 美利坚合众国的战争并在其上建立傀儡政权。这一分支也将强制 联合王国在转为共产主义2年内完成去殖民化国策,否则将爆发内战。

Politics
National spirits
The UK starts with three national spirits.
British Stoicism
- Ideology drift defense: +50%
- Can create factions
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you, if you can meet with triumph and disaster and treat those two impostors just the same. Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, and - which is more - you'll be a man, my son.
The War to End All Wars
- Recruitable Population Factor: -30%
With the Great War in recent memory, both the nation's people and leaders are reluctant to send another generation to die in the trenches.
King George V
Popular Figurehead
Stability: 15%
Rallying around the King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, as well as Emperor of India, the British people stand united and proud of their imperial legacy.
With the 炮手就位 expansion enabled, the United Kingdom starts with an additional national spirit:
Ideology
UK starts 1936 as a democracy, with elections every four years, with the next one in 1939. The ruling party is the Conservative Party led by Stanley Baldwin.
The UK has no national focus that allows it to change ideology without Man the Guns; Only fascist or communist political advisors could reverse the ideology. With Man the Guns, the Change in Course branch grants focuses to change the ideology to non-aligned, fascist, or communist. The AI controlling other countries can attempt to promote other ideologies. Because of the UK's national spirit British Stoicism this will be much slower than normal as it grants ideology drift defense: +50%.
Diplomacy
The Commonwealth
The United Kingdom maintained close ties with the Commonwealth countries of 加拿大自治领, 南非, 澳大利亚 and 新西兰. These countries were formerly part of the British Empire, but are now independent. They have their own governments, economies and armed forces and the UK player cannot control these unless they provide an expeditionary force to the UK. But they start the game as members of the Allies faction, led by the UK. Certain UK focus choices affect them (e.g., construction of factories).
NOTE: With the Together For Victory DLC, all the Commonwealth Realms are British subjects to various degrees.
Puppets
Their colony of India has some local autonomy. It is represented in the game as a puppet called 英属印度. It is possible for the UK to release British Raj as an independent country. With the "Together For Victory" DLC active, it is represented as a Colony, more autonomous than a puppet.
Colonies
The UK starts with with direct control over many colonies across the world. These include the strategic locations of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal and the rich colonies in Malaya Singapore.
The Allies
The UK is leader of the faction called the Allies. The faction's starting members are the Commonwealth countries (Canada, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand) and the British Raj and British Malaya. It's the most powerful faction in the game in the start.
The UK has very friendly relations with France, but the latter isn't a member of the Allies in start, nor is the United States. France normally joins the faction early in the game, but it might not — its National Focuses could steer it elsewhere. The U.S. normally joins the Allies later, but it can also form its own faction.

Economy
United Kingdoms economy in 1936 has good access to all resources except oil which is easily accessible through trade for the UK as its mostly in the hands of democracies. There is also plenty of territory for construction of new factories. Many resources come from the far reaches of the United Kingdom by convoys, so ensuring that the Royal Navy has superiority along the trade routes is of importance to ensure that these make their way to Britain.

Military
The United Kingdom starts with a world-dominating fleet across the globe, and a sizable air force. Its army nevertheless, is stretched thin because of the Empire's extent. The nation has a decent amount of manpower at the start of the game but juggling this will be a major concern. Careful planning should be used for the manpower pool given the Empire's broad geographic commitments; newly made ships and planes will require their part of manpower for crewing. Though manpower demands for the army's preparations for coming war are pressing, they're not urgent for Britain by 1936 and could wait for a while.

- Army
- Most of the British Army's forces are concentrated in England, Wales, and Scotland, with the remainder in small garrison units around their colonies. The British isles are home to 16 infantry divisions, of which five are full-strength, regular-quality of 9 regiments each. The rest of the divisions are similar in size, but at a 'trained' level and with equipment shortages. They're coupled with two cavalry brigades and a light armor brigade. Overseas divisions are about 20 trained infantry brigades, made of four regiments that share a shortage of equipment. The British Army is expected to be hard pressed from the extent of territory that needs to be defended when war breaks out. The player will have to decide wisely how to split its originally limited divisions to defend the Empire and allied nations.

- Navy
- The Royal Navy is the largest in the globe by 1936. The UK starts with all tier I ship techs and tier II destroyers, cruisers and carriers. Initial naval production is extensive: Four Leander-class light cruisers, five Town-class light cruisers with improved armor and weight of fire compared to the Leanders, two S Class early submarines, nine E/F/G/H-class destroyers all scheduled for completion by the end of the year, and the HMS Ark Royal, the first "modern" aircraft carrier in the fleet.
