Man, EU4 really strong-armed me into switching over to a constitutional monarchy. :(
You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

So after the Syndicalists fell in Europe, India has gone on to form its own bloc of Syndicalist states.

It's an exaggeration. But the "create army" thing only lets you train another regiment every few years, at the least.

The reason why it's taking so long for you is because every regiment in the game requires resources taken from the economy. You're either trying to train a unit that uses one of the more rarer resources, or you're playing a country that's just really low on the priorities list in the world market. This sort of thing can be especially common in the late game, when tanks roll around (or rather not rolling around), because there are so few tank manufactories in the world. You should be able to identify which resource(s) you're missing by hovering your cursor over the unit queued to be made.

It's all about access to the resources needed to train soldiers, as Persia for it example it might take years to train proper Infantry Brigades but as the U.K or Germany I can pump out hundreds of thousands in mere months since access to goods is predicated on how much you produce yourself, and your level of priority in the international market which is determined by prestige.

I've been the tech leader for most of the game. I've got 117.5% discipline as well. Oh, and my manpower is through the roof compared to every other country. I've got over 250,000 manpower. No one else even comes close. The Ottomans come in second at 117,000 and Dai Viet is third with 93,000.

The challenge is a little daunting, but I think I can pull it out.

Oh, and all my generals are freakin' beasts like this guy. :D

Not in the books, which actually is what matters.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.
