The generic focus tree has 5 main branches:

Army Effort gives army experience and research bonuses to army research.
Aviation Effort gives air experience, builds air bases, and research bonuses to air research.
Naval Effort gives navy experience, builds naval dockyards, and research bonuses to navy research.
Industrial Effort builds civilian and military factories (usually even if building slots are already full)and grants extra research slots.
Political Effort gives the country choices on which political path they will take.

Technology[edit]

El Salvador starts with 2 research slots.

Army technology	Naval technology	Air technology	Electronics & Industry
Basic Infantry Eq.	None	Interwar Fighter	None

Strategies and guides[edit]

Even though the country is small, the industry is tiny the manpower is tiny and it has basically has only chronium, it is the only fascist country in central america. Thus, it'll be the most likely to form a Central American Union.

But even this union will only give you about the same manpower as Nepal, Bulgaria or Sinkiang has, with slightly more industry industry. But without the resources and little options to expand.

First thing you need to do, is increase your military production. Choose for the focuses that give you extra military factories. After 2, go for the research slots. With the first PP, justify on Honduras, and the country to the west directly after this. Alternatively, the player can also decide to go to war with guatamala, but it requires forts on its capital to reduce guatamala's already small military.

Depending on historical focuses on or off, you'll have to be quick before Mexico gets wargoals in central america, as they want to expand.

After your first 2 targets, it is quite easy to conquer the rest of them. Keep an eye on your manpower, as it will go very low quickly.

Before declaring on Costa Rica, decide what you want to do. You don't have many options from here on out. You have to definitely hold out against Mexico , to then conquer them. Research naval invasions and marines and build boats and go for Venezuela is optional. Or join the Axis and try to kick out the allies from southern America.
