Okay, so Jean-Luc Picard gave me the green light on this. You see, EW4 has princesses. I suggested to change it into industrialists. According to Davout this has been met with approval with the mod team, but I want to ask you too, and have some help. I have already determined US, GB, France, and Germany's Industrialists. I might need help on Austria-Hungary, Russia, Ottoman Empire, Italy, and Japan. (One country will not be in, so the quickest ones win). I have a poll, and I will release more information later. |

Ōkura Kihachirō (Japan): Arms merchant, foreign trade. Something along the lines of Econ Master+Assault Art+a Combat skill Great! Anyone know any Italian/Ottoman industrialists? I only need one more, so the quickest (and most detailed) wins. Name, brief summary. Include pictures, or give a famous enough person so when I search it I have a portrait. |

The issue with Italy, Russia, Turkey, etc. is that they weren't exactly industrialized countries. Russia and Italy were fairly agrarian, Turkey wasn't very industrial, and idk about the KuK.
So, I have another suggestion for two of those nations: Revolutionary figures:
Italy: Benito Mussolini
Russia: Leon Trotsky
Also, both of these figures helped transform their countries into industrialized nations, especially Mussolini whose policies stimulated the economy and got people working in factories.

Laurent de Gouvion suggested Konovalov (Textile manufacturer turned Minister of Finance) for Russia.

Russia and Austria-Hungary's industrialists are resolved, General William T. Sherman. But I do think a revolutionary figure makes a good third option. Not Mussolini though, he was only a foot soldier in WWI, maybe someone earlier. |

Not Mussolini though, he was only a foot soldier in WWI, maybe someone earlier. I was thinking of Mussolini's post war career as a fascist revolutionary. I think Trotsky could work though, especially considering that he was a major military general during the Russian Civil War on the side of the Soviets. Also, Nestor Makhno, the Ukrainian Anarchist, could work for something somewhere. |
