To The Bitter End

This focus pack centers on Romania, a key player in the Balkans and the war in Eastern Europe. The nation is internally divided, suffering under a flawed democracy affected by its hedonistic King. You will find yourself on a crossroads of where to take your nation and how to preserve your borders being surrounded by the Soviets in the East, and former Balkan rivals in the West. Rich in oil and industrial drive, Romania’s decisions on what direction to take will impact the fate of the Balkans.
