TNDThe New Dawn

What if Chernobyl had broken the Soviet Union? In 1986 Moscow buried the disaster, Ukraine rose, and by 1988 the Union was gone. A bloodier Gulf War and a split over Yugoslavia ended NATO, and Europe built a Defence Union of its own. TND starts Hearts of Iron IV on 1 January 2000 in that world - real leaders, modern armies, and a unique focus tree for every major nation - and lets you decide what the new century becomes.
