There was a country called Hatay that existed between 1938 and 1939 that was a part of French Mandate of Syria after getting released and before its annexation by Turkey.

I can't post links but if you want to check it out, here's the Wikipedia title: "Hatay State"

It is not a mistake and very possibly this question will be touched upon when making a dlc set in the Middle East where very likely Turkey has its own tree and other countries in the region.
Regarding this, we recall that this that the life of this collaborative state of French mandate in Syria was ephemeral shortly after its existence was annexed by the Turks after a referendum where the great part of its population voted in favor of this option. of the political agreement the French and the Turks had arrived

Hatay existed from September 7 1938 to June 29 1939, which means it shouldn’t exist in either startdate. But by August 15 1939 it was already part of Turkey.

Here’s a possible solution:

Step 1. Implement more states in Syria as proposed by here, including Hatay.

Step 2. when Turkey gets an own Focus Tree, add a sub-branch with 2 or 3 Foci.

• First focus: Demand autonomy for Hatay. Doing this will give the owner of Hatay state (France historically, but could be anyone if an early war happens or Turkey chooses the focus much later) an Ultimatum. If they decline, Turkey gets a Wargoal and an event allowing them to declare war.
• Possible middle focus: add a core and a Guarantee on Hatay and (might be skipped if there are many other Foci. If skipped, adding the core would be part of the next focus)
• Last Focus: Annex Hatay. Would be almost the same as the German Anschluss Focus.

In the 1939 Scenario, Turkey would start with that branch completed and own Hatay.

Turkey would have an (in-game) reason to wait a bit until annexing Hatay: let them complete the Generic focus tree branches adding IC and infrastructure.

This would allow recreating the historical events quite faithfully if all sides follow the historical path, OR have the potential to cause a war in the Middle East between France and Turkey.

@Ketchup & friends, Yes because I didn't know where to put this.

This might get addressed once the Dev is working on the Turkey focus tree.
