The game map in Hearts of Iron spans the entire world, allowing you to take WWII to any new front that you choose. You can play as any nation in the world, but the game focuses on the intense struggle between the great alliances of the New World Orders that represent Fascism, Communism, and Democracy. Turn the tide of war in your favor by influencing domestic and foreign politics, obtaining superweapons, and building more than 100 ground, air, and naval forces. Hearts of Iron also features a scenario editor, real-time gameplay, and multiplayer support.
