Missing photos / Doubts on characters identities
I have hardly searched for these people photos, but I can't find any.

I imagine some of these characters maybe have their photos in these games: Hearts of Iron 2, 3, The Darkest Hour, Arsenal of Democracy. If you have one of these games and want to contribute to complete this mod, you can take an in-game screeenshot of these ones and sent it to me.

A good Fascist leader for Israel belongs to a party called "Brit HaBirionim" but it may be a bit of a stretch, since the party was pretty much extinct by 1940.

Name: Abba Ahimeir

I have a few more portraits for the Baltic states. Some are former leaders that were still alive during the time period.

Estonia

Communist: Johannes Käbin https://goo.gl/mkuEh7 (Estonian-Soviet politician)

Fascist: Alfred Rosenbourg https://goo.gl/HNdiT8 (Leader of Reichskommissariat Ostland)

Democratic: Jaan Tõnisson https://goo.gl/PYhdXB (Former leader & Rival of Päts)

Neutral ------

Lithuania

Communist:----

Fascist:----

Democratic: Kazys Grinius https://goo.gl/8ErZ5Y (Former leader before Lithuania's Coup)

Neutral: ----

Some may have been a stretch, but this was the best I could offer.

Hello. I am considering to add your leaders as the purpose of my mod evolved a bit (I begin to add leaders to replace generic ones).

Estonia:

- Johannes Käbin: ok, but he seems old on the photo for the 36-48 period.
- In game, Paradox put Hinrich Lohse has the leader of the Ostland.
- Jaan Tõnisson: ok, but too young on the photo.

Lithuania:

- Kazys Grinius: ok, but too young.

Now if you want to suggest other leaders for these countries or other places, I will consider it asap.

Hello. I have finally find a photo for Novica Radovic ! I have a photo of him from wikipedia, 100% sure of his identity, but the photo is in bad quality. I also found a paper in russian language, searching with by his name, and that introduces a person who really looks like him, but I am not sure (the guy on the right). Is someone read the russian ?

I don't know if it will help (I don't know if his picture is in there), but there is this book on the Nationalist Party in Iceland: Who Were the Fascists: Social Roots of European Fascism.

Hello. thank you for your suggestion. This book could be a clue. But I am now pretty convinced that Johannes Valurson is a fake leader, I have replaced him in the "Historical Portraits Submod" by Davíð Ólafsson (I refered for that to this online book: https://books.google.fr/books?id=k-y_DwAAQBAJ&pg=PT77&lpg=PT77&dq=Dav%C3%AD%C3%B0+%C3%93lafsson+iceland+nazism&source=bl&ots=vJ3G7zedU6&sig=ACfU3U1LCrJDXhQ6dSfvq4oBOb0IxaGOQw&hl=fr&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjN3dX-hofqAhXLzoUKHabMAzoQ6AEwAHoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&q=Dav%C3%AD%C3%B0%20%C3%93lafsson%20iceland%20nazism&f=false)

Is there a specialist of Baltic states here ? I search the identity of this man:

- the spy of Estonia (Eduard Puusepp): I have a doubt on him, is he https://www.geni.com/people/Eduard-Voldemar-Puusepp/6000000008624870537 or he https://www.geni.com/people/Eduard-Puusepp/6000000007085698067 ?

- Cannot find photo for spies Jekabs Apsenieks (Latvia) and Kipras Jablonskis (Lithuania).

the spy of estonia is likely the 2nd one, as the 1st had died in 1919.
the second had died in '53.
