The year is 1936 and the world is in a tense position.
In Europe two of the worst off countries after the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, Germany and Italy are now lead by fascist dictator, who are determined to bring their nations back to their former glories. German leader Adolf Hitler is moving to remove the Treaty of Versailles with Britain and France not seeming to be in a position to stop the German leader.
French politics are far from stable. With the Great Depression, Communist and Far right parties have risen in popularity within the French borders and getting involved in a conflict with Germany would just lower stability within the nation.

In Italy, Italian leader Benito Mussolini is asserting Italian colonial ambitions by waging a war with Ethiopia for their territory.
European countries also have to watch out for the threat of communism in the East. With the Great Depression and the political instability that comes with it, the threat of communism is greater then ever and every country that turn to communism will be wholeheartedly welcomed into the Soviet's Comintern alliance.
