In the beginning of the game, Germany only has claims on Alsace and Lorraine. If it has claims on the territories it lost, shouldn't it also have claims on the Sudetenland and the Polish Corridor?

We have updated our Community Code of Conduct. Please read through the new rules for the forum that are an integral part of Paradox Interactive’s User Agreement.
This has come up on the CORE forum as well - these claims are handled by events, really, since there would be Zero chance of Germany being able to even suggest these claims in 1936. To be honest, we are looking at potentially removing the claims on Luxembourg/Alsace-Lorraine from the initial set-up as well - the political environment in 1936 just wouldn't be suitable to allow such claims any chance of diplomatic success. In case Germany goes on an ahistoric early conquest spree, there will probably be events that recognise the the fact that Germany has taken these areas, and that, after a while, things will settle down, and the local (German) populace will start working with their new masters.

We can also have since the first day a german claim on all provinces who have at least a strong german minority...
But also play with the diplomatic AI :
# The countries we will demand territory from if we have claims on them.
demand_claims = { }
and
# Modifier to chance that country will accept a demand for territory.
claim_acceptance = X

We have also removed those cores to stop people profiting overly from going out and launching world conquest schemes in 1936. It is the way it is - please do not expect things to significantly change in that respect - this is CORE, not vanilla.. we try to make things more realistic, and those other claims just aren't viable in reality in 1936 - even Luxembourg looks a bit dubious as at that date, to be honest.

Great decision: even Luxembourg should only become availible after Anschluss or the End of Tscheslovakia (look at Memel!). Without a huge polital shift (near facism) there is no realistic chance for Germany to pressure Luxembourg (& Belgium & Allies) to join Germany in 1936 or 1937.
The chances that France would give up the gains of WW1 and the provinces of the Maginot line are ... almost non existant. The cores are only relevant in case of german occupation not diplomatic gain. A 10 day occupation (could be an early 1936-war with france) of one of the provinces should trigger the cores in France.
A distinction between diplamatic action ("demand territories") and military action (occupied / annexed) in cores would be great.
As I said, the IA can be scripted to refuse all "demand territories"...
It will change nothing to the gameplay or to the historical realism.
It's just an alternative that decrease the Computer ressources needed by having events that enable and then disable core provinces.
