Description:
Mod with real photos of leaders and generals

This mod replaces the vanilla portraits in the game with real photos of leaders and prominent generals.
The mod is currently in development and has already been implemented in the following countries:
Austria, Belgium, Bhutan, Czechoslovakia, England, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Mongolia, Nepal, Romania, Soviet Union, Tibet, Yugoslavia, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, USA, Japan, China.

During development, I found a way to turn black and white photos into color photos – using manual coloring and AI software.
While some portraits may still be black and white, I’ve tried to convert most of them to color.

If you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to share them in comments or in the discussion.
I’ll be happy to respond and provide feedback!
