Really great job! I loved the premise!!! Huge sucker for maps, so I was immediately excited to see something with a geography/historical focus. The UI was a bit confusing in places (e.g., the research box zooming in and out instead of scrolling), so I gave up trying to figure out how to play correctly at a certain point, but still had a ton of fun just wantonly funding rebels and seeing what chaos happened lol. A pause function would have helped tremendously to allow enough time to process all the context and options at play. Without it, I became very pro-end-the-world, very quickly, yet still had a lot of fun doing so!
