comment
The Quisling: To the east of what was once Poland lie the Eurokommissariats, zones where the European Army was able to advance during their invasion, and are led mainly by political figures affiliated with the Europeist party Civil Platform, like Grzegorz Schetyna, or Donald Tusk, who turned into collaborating with German and European authorities in the eve of the invasion to oppose the increasingly authoritarian Law and Justice.

comment
Crapsack World: The European Union has become more centralized and is willing to send its military to police neighboring countries. The USA and Germany are destined to be ruled by more and more radical leaders as time goes by. Putin has been ousted, but the succeeding Navalny's government turns out to be just as autocratic as the previous one.

Pride Before a Fall
 Pride And Fall (Video Game) / int_2727c89a
comment
Pride Before a Fall: The name of the mod alludes to this trope. The Law and Justice government became more and more arrogant and open about their attempts to subvert democracy, thinking themselves to be untouchable. The cascade of events ended up with the collapse of the Polish state referred to in-universe as 'the Fall'.

Allohistorical Allusion
 Pride And Fall (Video Game) / int_2a035a26
comment
Allohistorical Allusion: Gdańsk is referred as a free city as it was before WWII. The story of Flower Consortium is based around the real-life affair known as Skin Hunters affair. Areas around the cities of Pruszków and Wołomin are owned by gangs, which is a reference to criminal groups which were notable in Polish 90’s. The Roman State in Kalisz refers to a supposed Roman settlement in Poland in the region named Calisia.

After the End: Atomic explosion. Collapse of the society. Junk becoming a strategic resource. While some parts of Poland are relatively OK, not to mention the rest of the world, much of the mod setting corresponds well with the general view of how the post-apocalypse should look like.

 Pride And Fall (Video Game) / int_6d7026fa
comment
Punny Name: Some leaders of countries are chosen not because of connections with this region, but because of puns. Examples are: Ricardus Calisius (real name Ryszard Kalisz) leading the Roman-like country of Calisia based in the city of Kalisz. Roksana Węgiel, an Internal Reformist in the Brotherhood of Coal, because her surname in Polish means "coal".

Shout-Out
 Pride And Fall (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The mod's subheading, The Last Days of Poland, as well as the various warlords vying for power with the German-controlled commissariats to the west is an obvious Shout-Out to fellow Hearts of Iron IV mod The New Order Last Days Of Europe and the Russian Anarchy. The 'Pride and Fall' part comes from Rafał Ziemkiewicz's book Pycha i Upadek (eng. Pride and Fall). The atomic bomb falling on �ódź district Bałuty is a reference to a Polish copypasta, where by mistake North Korea bombs not New York, but �ódź Bałuty. Losses were estimated at 32 PLN. Brotherhood of Coal is based on Brotherhood of Steel. Andrzej Sapkowski, author of Witcher books creates a warlord state based on the world from his books. Also one of his generals is Michał Żebrowski, who played Geralt in Polish adaptation. The inspiration for creating Roman country for Ricardus Calisius was noted as Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra. Also a centurion from the movie is one of his advisors. KOWALSKI.EXE is a reference to another Polish copypasta suggesting that Janusz Kowalski is not real, and instead an image created by AI by scanning several thousand of faces of the average Pole.

Historical Villain Upgrade: After the collapse of the Polish state, many public figures have gotten radicalized, if not completely insane in a few cases. Already radical individuals were finally given the chance to implement their dangerous ideas. Most notable examples are: Alexei Navalny, former opposition figure against Putin’s rule is shown as the one who overthrew him, but his rule is revealed to be just as autocratic as the previous regime. Donald Tusk, one of the most important Polish politicians, who was blamed for being too dependent on Germany, works as their outright Quisling.

The Remnant: The old pre-Fall Polish government is located around the city of Legionowo, and other PiS remains remain scattered throughout the anarchy. Other former governments are the Kaliningrad Oblast ruled by Vladimir Putin and Hajnówka invaded by Alexander Lukashenko, after the former was ousted by Navalny's coup and the latter by the Russian invasion of Belarus.
