Did Victoria 2 have anything resembling an arms-race as a thing to happen? Since the build up of the German Navy was a major driving force in British foreign policy towards the 1910s, it would be interesting to see countries react to the developments of other countries, rather than just the active actions.

yeah it was “be the first to unlock machine guns/gas attack and ironclads”

Dixie pops should probably be the only ones able to support military units until the civil war breaks out and then have the amount of recruitable yankee pops grow as the war continues

true, I could have ironclad duels with the CSA or send the entire British navy to the bottom in a single battle

Possibly, it's not really as though the pre-war army ceased existing, it's more that in terms of the size of the armies involved the civil war just blew it out of the water (not to mention the casualties).

for example, the number of troops actually engaged in battle at first bull run was 28% larger then the number of all men in the army the previous year.
including the troops that didn't see any fighting blows the number up to 190%

e: there were more soldiers at first bull run then there were US soldiers involved in the mexican american war

Yeah the "virgin forests" the Europeans found were nothing of the sort, they just saw Trees Huge and assumed the indigenous population didn't use them.

the point is “trees gone” rather than “trees completely untouched”

Let’s compromise and have armies be represented by animated chess pieces, their type indicating army composition. Pawns = infantry army, knight = cavalry, bishop = infantry-cavalry mix, rook = infantry + artillery and so on.

Something akin to the Great Depression could have easily happened earlier though and its effects could have dramatic transformative/revolutionary ramifications for multiple nations. Also iirc the stockmarket crashed multiple times over the 19th century, just much smaller scale?

it did, the depression of 1873 lasted 20 years

one of the interesting things in the long depression in the US was that it was basically caused by building too many railroads. freight rates collapsed from oversupply of freight capacity and with them the price of agricultural products ruining the industrialists and farmers simultaneously
