All nations lacking a unique national focus tree use the generic national focus tree instead.
Note: The generic focus tree also acts as the default tree for nations which received a unique focus tree in a DLC if said DLC is not enabled.
Clicking on a focus icon leads to the appropriate table row. "Repeat" action to return.
The generic focus tree has 5 main branches:
- Army Effort gives army experience and research bonuses to army research.
- Aviation Effort gives air experience, builds air bases, and research bonuses to air research.
- Naval Effort gives navy experience, builds naval dockyards, and research bonuses to navy research.
- Industrial Effort builds civilian and military factories (usually even if building slots are already full)and grants extra research slots.
- Political Effort gives the country choices on which political path they will take.
Mutually exclusive choices can be only chosen once and then the other choice is excluded and further focuses depending on that excluded focus also become unavailable. These choices should be considered carefully as they can fundamentally change the direction of the country.
Army branch
| Focus | Effects | Prerequisites | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 重视陆军 |
|
尽管空战与海战技术不断发展,地面战斗仍是未来战争的关键。如若我们做好准备,就可避免再次陷入堑壕战的地狱。 | ||
| 重视装备 |
|
陆军装备日新月异,我们将致力于为战士们研发出最好的装备。 | ||
| 重视装备 II |
|
我们必须继续努力让我们的步兵和支援部队拥有这个时代最好的装备。 | ||
| 重视装备 III |
|
我们应该自主研制达到世界领先水平的步兵武器,而不是购买或仿制外国货。 | ||
| 重视摩托化 |
|
摩托化及其防护对于步兵安全地进出战场来说是至关重要的。专注于摩托化技术的发展使我们能够迅速采取行动。 | ||
| Mechanization Effort |
|
重新思考摩托化步兵的可能性,当前我们可以生产更多类型的步兵载具。 | ||
| 重视装甲部队 |
|
应用我们从步兵机械化过程中获得的经验以改进我们的装甲车辆。 | ||
| Doctrine Effort | The military doctrines that defined ground combat in the Great War are outdated. We must put our greatest minds to the task of shaping the military thought of tomorrow. | |||
| Doctrine Effort II | The battlefield has changed not just in the interbellum years, but over the course of recent conflicts. We must continuously reevaluate our doctrines to reflect this. | |||
| Special Forces |
|
We have need of elite forces; mountain troops and paratroopers should be our priority. |
Aviation branch
| Focus | Effects | Prerequisites | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aviation Effort |
|
Nowhere is technological advances more rapid than in aerial warfare. Aviation is a field any modern nation must master. | ||
|
We have not seen that last of dogfights in the Great War. Keeping ahead in the development of fighter planes will give us an edge in the future. | |||
| CAS Effort |
|
A modern army needs support from vehicles not only on the ground, but also in the air. | ||
|
When people of the future speak of the horror to today's wars, fire raining from the skies will prominently feature. We will do our best to ensure those stories are told by our enemies. | |||
| NAV Effort |
|
Just as the new naval warfare takes place in part beneath the water's surface, part of it takes place in the air above the waters. | ||
| Aviation Effort II |
|
Further advances in aviation will be necessary to integrate our air force well with other branches of the military. | ||
| Rocket Effort |
|
ALL |
Rocket and jet engines allow for unprecedented speeds for unmanned and manned vessels alike. Pioneering these technologies will allow us to take the enemy by surprise. |
| Focus | Effects | Prerequisites | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Naval Effort | The expansion of our navy should be our first priority. Assign all available resources to new Dockyards and research into light surface ships. | |||
|
Reinventing naval warfare to account for the advances in submarine technology will allow us to strike efficiently against enemy convoys. | |||
| Submarine Effort |
|
Submarine warfare is the most exciting naval development since the invention of the torpedo boat. We would do well to not just protect against submarines, but also use them against enemy shipping. | ||
| Destroyer Effort |
|
Studying the design and strategic use of submarines, we have also learned how to counter those strategies. Destroyers will be crucial for this. | ||
|
Adapting our naval doctrines to accommodate large ships and ensuring the safety of our trade convoys will teach us much about what sort of ships we need. | |||
| Cruiser Effort |
|
Before making forays into advanced battleship research, the smaller cruisers are in need of replacement. | ||
| Capital Ship Effort |
|
The nation with the most battleships will rule the oceans. Battleships and carriers represent the old and the new in naval superiority. |
Industrial branch
| Focus | Effects | Prerequisites | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industrial Effort |
|
Focus all our political efforts on building up the civilian industry in a great leap forward. | ||
| Construction Effort |
Random(?):
|
The following will bypass the focus:
|
Civilian industrial capacity must not be underestimated even when war looms over the world. | |
| Construction Effort II |
Random(?): |
The following will bypass the focus:
|
Continuing to expand our factories will allow us to speed up production of goods for trade and further construction efforts. | |
| Infrastructure Effort |
Random(?): |
The following will bypass the focus:
|
A country without proper infrastructure cannot pursue advanced projects or constructions. | |
| Infrastructure Effort II |
Random(?): |
The following will bypass the focus:
|
Extending our infrastructure further will enable the transports and communications necessary for high-tech clandestine projects. | |
| Construction Effort III |
Random(?): |
Expansion of our infrastructure network has significantly improved our capacity for construction. | ||
| Extra Research Slot |
|
Our industrial expansion and other recent advances might allow us to conduct more R&D in parallel. | ||
| Nuclear Effort |
|
Standing on the edge of a world-changing discovery, we cannot let others light the fire that may one day consume the Earth. | ||
| Secret Weapons |
|
It is tempting to expend all extra resources into developing tanks and planes, but the secret to winning wars lies in whole new fields of science; electronics, rocketry and nuclear research. | ||
| Extra Research Slot II |
|
Only available when:
|
The rapid industrialization of our nation has opened up new opportunities in R&D that we should pursue. | |
| Armament Effort |
Random(?):
|
The following will bypass the focus:
|
If you can build tractors, you can build tanks! We must not allow our military production capacity to lag behind. | |
| Armament Effort II |
Random(?): |
The following will bypass the focus:
|
Trying to adapt civilian factories to produce military equipment is inefficient. We should focus on preparing military production now. | |
| Armament Effort III |
Random(?): |
The following will bypass the focus:
|
Continued efforts to expand our military factories are necessary to meet the demands for new equipment. |
Political branch
| Focus | Effects | Prerequisites | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Political Effort |
|
To bring about change in the world, we need to be able to bring about change in our own country. Strengthening our political position should come first. | ||
|
Our enemies may divide and conquer lesser nations, but our people will stand united. All for one and one for all. | |||
|
Our nation is unique, and our political achievements could only have happened here. We must fight for it at any cost. | |||
| Militarism |
|
Those who view the military as a necessary evil are doomed to hesitate in the face of war. We will ingrain militarism into our culture to become a people of soldiers. | ||
| Military Youth |
|
Organizations to promote discipline and political education of young people in our nation will foster loyalty and self-sacrifice early. | ||
| Paramilitarism |
|
Military principles have applications outside of the military. With the development of semi-militarized units to complement our armed forces, more people will have military training. | ||
|
Additional prerequisites:
↓One of the following must be true: |
Ideology knows no borders. Another nation may call itself sovereign, but our convictions are above such claims. | ||
| Political Correctness |
People who think correctly are much harder to influence by foreign powers.
|
People holding mildly controversial or otherwise embarrassing opinions appear to be concerned that there is a wide-reaching conspiracy against them. This seems like an excellent idea. | ||
| Indoctrination |
|
Having established our ideology as based on the truth, it may be taught as truth. Education and media must reflect this lesson. | ||
| Political Commissars |
|
To ensure that our policies are followed in military practice, we will introduce politically appointed officials into military ranks. | ||
| Ideological Fanaticism |
![]() Ideological Fanaticism
|
Our politically established values and goals are worth dying for as much as any ancient faith. Any follower should be prepared to face death, and those who stray better be prepared to face death. | ||
|
In this time of ideological fanatics who seek to suffocate the human spirit, we will safeguard individual liberties and freedom. | |||
| Neutrality Focus |
![]() Neutral Foreign Policy
Neutrality is sometimes viewed as a craven stance, but this nation trusts that when the dust settles, those who didn't take sides may be better off than those who did.
|
While others may claim it takes bravery and wisdom to take sides in a global conflict, we know it takes more to refuse. | ||
| Deterrance |
|
Standing alone, we rarely benefit from war. Fortunately, we know that the best defense is one so well-known you never have to put it to use. | ||
| Why we Fight |
if does not have
|
Other prerequisites:
|
The world is growing increasingly unsafe. Our people need to see the atrocities being committed by those who crave power. It is time we rally the people to our cause and ensure everyone is ready to fight for our freedom. | |
| Interventionism Focus |
Removes ‘ Neutral Foreign Policy ’ |
We value the freedom of all people, not only our own citizens. If preventing tyranny means war, then so be it. | ||
| Volunteer Corps |
|
Forcing our people to die for ideals of freedom would be an exercise in irony, but establishing means for those who wish to aid people abroad is not. | ||
| Foreign Expeditions |
|
With our enemies prepared to intervene in distant conflicts on behalf of their ideals, we must be ready to do the same for ours. | ||
| Technology Sharing |
|
↓One of the following must be true:
|
By sharing technological advances with our allies, our whole faction will be able to conduct wartime R&D more efficiently. |
