I think there should be more countries in the game. Such as Australia, Canada and some small countries...

At the risk of infuriating the Director General Feldmarschall, I will add my own manure to this child's mess.
Canada, Australia and New Zealand were Dominions of the British Empire during this time period. Their foreign policy was dictated by Whitehall, not Ottawa, Canberra/Melbourne (can't remember when they moved the capital), or Wellington. Military operations were conducted not by separate Canadian, Australian or New Zealander High Commands, but under a unified command structure under British generalship.
As for the "other small countries", let us examine what they could be by continent:
North America: Canada - No. See above.
South America: Don't see any need for additions here.
Europe: Not here.
Africa: Not here either.
Asia: None. We've even included nonstate entities like "Chinese warlords", "Anfu China" and "Fengtien China", so we've done extra bits. I propose awarding ourselves a special cookie for this generosity.
Australasia: Australia and New Zealand, no, because I've explained already. See above.
Antarctica: No nation here as far as I know.
So I am really baffled at what is meant by "other small countries". I'm very, very perplexed, honestly. I'm banging my head on the wall and poring at atlases, and I cannot think of new countries to include. Oh the horror! Such an intellectual crisis cannot be reconciled! I fear I may descend into madness, in a manner akin to that great German philosopher Herr Nietzsche who experienced numerous intellectual crises!
Moreover, every land province in the game has been given to a country.
Aha! I have a resolution! The sea provinces are empty! The hordes of Atlantis arise from the depths of the oceans......

Well c the thing about Canada is that it had its own Prime Minister nad its own government, it also had a few Generals that served in France. I mean sure it was pretty much controlled by England, but i would be more fun to be able to play a minor like dat.
Also for Australia they had the Gollipoli invasion, so they should be also be made their own country.

I'm sure it wouldn't take much work to add them as 'revolter' nations.
Take note of what happened when David Lloyd George asked for support from the Dominions during the Chanak Crisis in 1922 - they told him to sod off. It demonstrates that Australia, New Zealand and Canada were not totally attached to Whitehall throughout the 1914-24 period, although the consequences of the example I used were doubtlessly influenced by what happened during the war.

We have made a decision that Canada, New Zealand, and Australia are incorporated inot the whole British Empire. If we keep coming back to old decisions and rehashing them we will never get anywhere.
If someone wants to do it, fine, but until that time I say we have other stuff we need to work on.

That's damn right.
Even if that means we won't see an independent Confederacy, Texas, Saskatchewan, Alaska, or Deseret!
