As someone who's been playing Paradox games since HoI2, I just hate it when people recommend something like USSR or Germany for a first playthrough. The first playthrough shouldn't be about being OP and steamrolling everything, it should be about learning the mechanics at your own pace and without being overwhelmed having to manage hundreds of divisions and a continent's worth of land. There's a reason why Portugal is a classic starter country in basically any Paradox game it's in - it's small and relatively safe, yet has potential for big things.

I get you. I mean I watched a few videos on YT about it before getting started and everyone was just talking about Germany and USSR. I got into the country selection screen and I was like "Oh ****, I cannot handle this mess". In the end, I chose Switzerland. I said to myself "Well I'm gonna stay chill and wait for the others to murder eachother". I managed to get some industry going on and got myself a general for my troops. It was a great experience. It was such a great experience that in my second game I managed to defend against the Soviets as Finland. I simply do not get why people tend to choose main countries as a first choice.

I failed so many times as Germany, but it was so rewarding once I finally successfully won the war. I took out Italy and Poland before the war. Once I took out France and UK, British raj became a major, so I pushed through the Balkans, turkey, and Iran to get there. By that time , the us joined. I nasally invaded Guatemala and pushed north from there. It felt so good giving the us 26 million casualties to the us. Australia also became a major which sucked, but I nuked their ports enough to where I could successfully invade. The war didn't end until 1954, but it was fun. I had my difficulty at regular as well, so I could get achievements.

This is a real first game story, unlike the comments under this video. My first game was as Argentina but I didn’t know how warfare worked. I set up on Chile’s border but I didn’t know how to set up front lines with generals so I just got overwhelmed and pushed all the way back to my capital by Chile lol.

Invading the USA as Japan in 1936 is a good strategy because their navy is about as strong as yours and their army is weaker, so once you land in Seattle, there are no problems

I'm new to the game, and my friends recommended Japan 'cos they said it was strong. I lost to china, because when I started the war with them, the world war started and they surrounded me and left me with no supplies, and one of my generals bugged and wouldn't invade by sea

Issue with playing USA is that 1/3 of your research tree can't be researched until world tension goes up. Additionally lack of accumulated political points makes it a slow game at the beginning. Its good to have half the game researching for better gear. I mean if you play your cards right you can have top carrier at like 1939 which make air superiority much easier with carriers.

1st game was the tutorial, took over ethiopia as asked and continued the main campaign after the tutorial had ended and focused on northern africa, all my divisions got trapped by free france as i was attempting to organize a retreat to a more defendable position and eventually all my offensive divisions were killed off leaving me with just my garrison i left behind in italy. 7/10 would starve my men again.

You should update this as it is a good guide. I personally think Brazil should be on the list. The only downside is starting off democratic, you have to push fascism, but that's not too hard. Brazil has great economic potential, access to good resources, and massive manpower.

My first game I played as the USA and didn't know how to launch naval invasions, and slowly watched Europe eaten by Germany, then my game crashed. Second game I played as Brazil, tried to take over my neighbors, got owned by France, then my game crashed. Third game I went in as France, built up my nation, and held off the Germans for a long time, but England wouldn't help, and then Italy invaded, and then my game crashed. Fourth game I played Russia, tried to push down into China and Japan, still couldn't figure out how to naval invade, then my game crashed. Last game I decided to go with India. Built up, expanded east until I met the Japanese, expanded north to the boarders of Russia, and was doing well. Then my game crashed. Starting to see a theme here.

Here's my opinion of the top 10 nations to play as in HOI4: 1. Italy You could beat the UK in Africa, help Germany defeat France and Poland. 2. Mexico As the video said, you could invade the Central American nations below you, or you could invade the USA. 3. Germany You could invade Poland and France with help from your allies like Italy, then naval invade the UK, invade Denmark and/or Norway if you want to, attack the Soviet Union, and maybe get small countries like Switzerland. 4. Japan You could invade China, naval invade the U.S., help Germany invade the Soviet Union, and invade other countries. 5. Switzerland If you turn historical AI on, you have less chances to be attacked by Germany, and since Switzerland has nothing to do with WW2, you could build your army and infrastructure while other countries fight. 6. USA You could go Facist and invade the Americas, or stay Democratic and join the Allies to help in WW2. 7. Columbia You could build up a strong army and invade South America or all the Americas, or stay neutral. 8.France For France, I recommend to start from 1936 so you have enough time to build up an army to defend yourself from attacks from Germany, Italy, or Spain. 9. Iraq You could build an army and invade your neighbors, or go Democratic and join the Allies, or go Facist and join the Axis. 10. Ireland You could build a huge army and invade the UK or other nations, join the Allies and help out, or join the Axis and help them out. By the way, I tried to play as Brazil and invade Uruguay, but it went wrong and I had to capitulate to Uruguay

Wromg, wrong, wrong. Canada is one of the worst choices and so is Portugal. Don't listen to this video. It is wrong. Play as Italy for the first game. That's why Italy is the tutorial nation. Italy is the best first game. It is the tutorial nation. Easy forced early war in Ethiopia followed up by volunteers in Spain gives the player a good chance to learn basic combat mechanics. Then early wars against Yugoslavia, Romania combined with some easy annexes set-up a nice-sized blob just in time for the war with France. The Italian game slowly teaches the player combat mechanics little by little before WWII kicks off. Victory is inevitable in France especially aligned with Germany. This victory leads Italy to turn their attention to Eygypt, Iraq, and Greece securing Middle East oil. Oil guarantees the ability to spam the Mediterranean with heavy warships ending any kind of British invasion threats. With the Sea secured Russia , Iran, and India become the next targets. It is easier to win as the Axis if the player is Italy than any other faction.

Honorable Pawn well, Portugal is a mixed thing, cause you can learn to decide which country you want to target. As Portugal you can attack India, the UK, South Africa, Spain, France, Dutch east indies or China on land, therefore I recommend Portugal to players which allready played 3 to 4 games and learned the basics of basics.

Honorable Pawn i agree italy is a good first nation (it was mine) but its not without its problems. Figuring out how to expand without getting fucked by the uk takes pretty good timing as far as war justification goes (grabbing both greece and yugoslavia before garuntees requires impecible timing) as well as the fact that securing the mediteranian against the uk can be really tricky for an inexperienced player. (It was for me fuck gibralter and everything it stands for) especially since they tend to smack a couple of carriers in there which eats a lot of production power for italy to try to match. You also have the allies majestic airpower to contend with quite early which is difficult for italy.
