+ENG_StrongDemocraticJapan

Description
This mod is the old English translation for StrongDemocraticJapan ( https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2120228453 ).

After updating SDJ for BBA, the localization of ENG and ♥♥♥ are integrated as localization/english and localization/japanese, therefore this translation mod is not needed anymore.

** Note that this mod ONLY includes localization files; thus, please subscribe it SIMULTANEOUSLY with StrongDemocraticJapan. **

I tested that I activated only StrongDemocraticJapan and its +ENG mod, NOT including Japanese Language Mod, and then the game correctly ran in version 1.11.12.

# What is StrongDemocraticJapan ?

StrongDemocraticJapan is a mod to reinforce the Democratic Japan Route by adding many national focuses and ideas.
In the vanilla, the Democratic Japan Route is boring after completing Pacific Guardian focus.
In that mod, powerfull national focuses such adding construction slots and factories, intervening axis/soviet/china, and making India independent!

Also, the vanilla non-allied route is boring with comparing to its fascist (historical) route. My prior mod StrongNonAlliedJapan(Kodoha) has resolved this issue.
After NSB update, StrongDemocraticJapan contains the reinforced Non-Allied Japan Route of StrongNonAlliedJapan(Kodoha)!

Enjoy an exhilarating and romantic democracy playing for you!

# Features

* The "preemptive corp" focus no longer occurs a civil war which we against the Emperor. Instead, it takes 210 days for completion; it takes three times as long as the normal NF to democratize through political struggle.

* There are two roots after "showa constitution"; alliance with England (joining the Allies) and making the West Pacific Treaty Organization (own faction). Both root is exciting.
* In the Allies root, Japan ties intelligence agreement with England and gets other buffs via NFs. Then Japan will fight the Axis with the Allies and Poland. Lastly, Japan and England can make Danubian Confederation in Valkan.
* In the WPTO root, Japan trys decolonizing Asia and beats fascist Australia and America. As same as rising fascism in France at the Democratic Germany Root, fascists in Australia, New Zealand, and USA get power.
* Moreover, in the WPTO root, Japan can make Burma, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and India independent from England and invite them to the WPTO faction.

* Common Korean question and anti-communism NFs, they are based on the Vanilla, are extended and reinforced.
* After completion the "preemptive corp" focus, Korean and Manchuria don't become independent. Player can select their destiny. If the "Korean question" is completed and Korean is being annexed by Japan, the stability will decrease. Japan can return Manchuria to China and make alliance with them. On the other hand, since China was dictatorial and corrupt at the time, Japan could also democratize them by force.
* In the anti-communism root, Japan guarantees and invites Finland to protect from USSR and the third Reich. Japan opens war with Soviet. In this war, Japan can integrate North Sakhalin (Kita Karafuto) and make the Primorsky (Enkaishu) puppet. Lastly, Japan is able to disolve the Soviet Union completely in the peace conference.

* Common economic NFs are added and intense Japanese industry. Besides, beyond difficult condition, Japan can perform the Fugu Plan: Jewish settlement to Manchuria. Then, Japan obtains economic buffs and improve the relationship with USA (if USA is fascist, it will be democratized).

StrongNonAlliedJapan is also deprecated.
All we need is StrongDemocraticJapan for not only reinforced democratic run but also Kodoha faction run of old StrongNonAlliedJapan mod.

@Alex n' Italy

This translation mod has already been deprecated since Paradox treated Japanese localization.
Besides, my StrongNonAlliedJapan was also deprecated because it was integrated with StrongDemocraticJapan.

Now, StrongDemocraticJapan is all we need even if we want to set the localization English.
StrongDemocraticJapan has localization files not only Japanese but also English.

Can it be used with the other "StrongJapan" mods of yours?

thank you

I've updated StrongDemocraticJapan for ver.1.12.*.
The localizations of English and Japanese are integrated as localization/english and localization/japanese; thus, this English translation mod (+ENG~~) is NOT needed anymore for your playing in English.

On the other hand, if you play in Japanese, some font mods are needed. However, if you play in English, the needed font mods viewed in the steam workshop page are not needed.

I've updated this mod.

Custom Game Rule AI for Democratic Japan has been implemented.
There are three runs.
* Japan-Anglo Alliance: Japan joins to the allies and fights with the Axis.
* Pacific Guardian: Japan creates the own faction and fights with the fascist America.
* Japan-US Alliance: Japan creates the own faction and allies with U.S.

Besides, several events, especially for fighting with the fascist America and Australia as the faction leader of West Pacific Treaty Organization, are added.
The battle against them will be more exciting.
