Covert Infiltration
This is an interesting one. Essentially, agents that have been surgically altered to resemble individuals from a primitive species are sent to infiltrate their society. Political and military leaders are gradually replaced, until a point is reached where the primitives can be made to willingly accept an offer of annexation. This spares the need of a messy ground invasion, but more importantly, the primitives will be more positively inclined towards their new overlords, since they are living under the illusion that they accepted their rule willingly.
Yeerk game is a-go.

What WAS the contingincy for that? All Goes To The Strongest Bey? Husband of a random Ottoman Daughter gets it?

The last Sultan would bury his treasure in a fantastical place and the Ottoman nobility (who all have distinct eccentricities and powers) would go on a wacky race to be the first to find it and claim the title of Sultan of Rum.

They called it the Steel Ball Rum.

Belonging to the Iron Guard movement, also referred to as the Legionnaires. Seems they took either over Romania on their own and brought Bulgaria into the fold, or that's just what Axis-aligned Romania/Bulgaria turn into.

When you press the button to use chemical weapons in HoI4, instead you are made to watch Haile Selassie's speech to the League of Nations about the Italian conquest of Ethiopia. After that is complete, the game locks up as Bob Marley's War plays in the background.

The less common/older usage of the phrase, I assume.

For example, it would be politically incorrect to say that thousands of people were ethnically cleansed out of central Asia. The more tactful wording would be that they were "transferred".

Romani Fix mod: This mod fixes the representation of Roma in the game by having them all vanish by 1944. However, due to a curious quirk in the code, it also makes Jewish, homosexual, handicapped, and single mother POPs also vanish. I CANNOT FIX THIS, PLEASE DO NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT IT.

The only way I would be interested in an Espionage DLC is if the code talkers were involved. The US gets impenetrable decryption, Japan gets events about how the gaijin are somehow passing along messages in this weird tonal gibberish.

Yeah but if they had big data then they could do it. How do you use big data? Easy, you use it to analyze the grammar. Every language has grammar. Then you know the language.

I mean this poo poo couldn't be simpler what are we even arguing about?

Have you ever heard Navajo? It sounds like this. Good luck figuring out the grammar for a language that you can't transcribe properly today let alone in the 40s.
