I just bought this game and havent finished a scenario yet. is it until 1948 like HO1 or is it longer?

Hearts of Iron II runs to the end of 1948.
The Doomsday expansion pushes the end back to 1953.
The Armageddon mini-expansion pushes the end back to 1964

Why is Armageddon called a "mini-expansions" if it extends it by 11 years where as the Doomsday expansion only extends it 5.

Press F1 and you get basic information about scenario, for example end date. Nice gaming and happy new year!

Because it doesn´t add very much apart from that. A upgrade system for ships is the other more significant thing I can think of for the moment.

in practice 1943. After that everything should be over.

Contrary to the above statement(s), 30 DEC 1947 is the traditional end date for HoI1, and HoI2. You do not get to play into 1948 unless you get one of the expansion packs, or NTL mods.

I'm pretty sure it says this if you press F1 in-game... though I don't have it in front of me right now.

edit:

I don't know about 'everything'...
