Description

Historical States is an all-in-one HoI4 map mod that integrates map changes to both the East and the West, featuring better portraits, country colors, and Reichskommissariat content. In short, it’s vanilla HoI4, but better.

This mod overhauled the provinces and states of all continents, with an emphasis on Europe and East Asia. With the content of this mod, you may accurately recreate many classical borders, such as the natural border of France, the historical German-Soviet border after the partition of Poland, Mexican-American border prior to the Mexican-American War, and the border of German colonies in Africa prior to WW1.

Another notable feature of this mod is replicating more accurate geographical regions. For example, this mod includes more accurate borders of all Chinese provinces, and cities are added/moved to correct position through out the world. Moreover, this mod added more impassable regions to reflect the harsh environments of certain places. Some of the new impassable regions added by this mod includes the Taklamakan desert and Northern Siberia.

Some minor features of this mod include:
-added decisions to reorganize borders of Reichskommissariats into TNO borders
-adjusted Chinese provinces’ ownership in 1936
-added a few islands in the Pacific

Update June 16, 2024

I finally finished updating the mod. THE MOD MIGHT STILL HAVE SOME BUGS, I RECOMMEND PLAYING WITH STATE TRANSFER TOOL JUST TO BE SAFE. Report in the comment section and I will fix them.

On top of updating the mod to fit the SA map update, this update also includes:
-The long requested historical Italian occupation of Dalamatia
-adjustment of some states in Western China
-added more victory points/cities in China
-adjustments to some state borders in SA
-added more impassable states

Update June 16, 2024

The game should be compatible with 1.15.4 now. However, I highly recommend you to play it with state transfer tool in case some events/focuses/decisions don’t work out correctly. Please report any bugs in the comment section.

Other changes

-removed leaders GFX because they cause too many bugs
-fixed the bug that Aouzou is not an impassable state
-added some Chinese cities
