While modding I've noticed a couple errors with naming of ministers and leaders. Mostly for Russia and the USSR.
Russia: Jurij Alksnis (minister) - I believe he should be Jēkabs Alksnis due to the following reasoning, Jurij Alksnis is a chief of the air force, while Jēkabs Alksnis was "the Commander-in-Chief of the Soviet Air Force" (http://www.historia.lv/publikacijas/gramat/mangulis/07.nod.htm), he was killed in the purge. which is another thing, he should be Soviet and not Russian.
Soviet Union:Yan Berzin (minister) - I believe he should be Jānis Bērziņš, who was "the head of the Soviet Military Intelligence" (same url), also killed in the purge after coming back from fighting in Spain.
Yakov I. Alksnis (minister) - this made me confused, maybe he is Jēkabs Alksnis? The names certainly match closer than Jurij and Jēkabs, but 2 Alksnises? Plus, he's Soviet. So maybe this guy is Jēkabs instead of the other one.
Vazietis (leader), the name is remarkably close to Vācietis, "an instructor at the Frunze Military Academy", killed in the purge.
