So, i never actually thought about it before but i looked it up in the Finnish WWW.
What are your thoughts on it? What would be good things to go down as Sweden for example? :p

I think a good thing would be to first go down Industrial Effort alot and later go down to Capital ships and head towards being buddies with Germany, not sure on what to do for Aviation or Army.

Industrial Effort -> construction effort - > infrastructure effort -> extra research will almost always be the best choice for any minor that doesn't plan to fight in the first few years as it will help you to stay up to date in tech and you get the most return on the factories.

You may want to start with politcal one to get 120 Political power at start for that minister that will help you in faster buiding of factories, reasarching industry techs, or getting more pp.
After that industry tree. But still you msut chose what will be beter for your resarch bonus to single tech or more tech slots twhis will decide if you will finish industry tree by itself or will you be jumping betwen trees

Sorry to get off topic, but I am surprised at how comprehensive this "generic" national focus tree is. Thought it would be something as generic as "national ideas" in EU4, though I don't think I should have expected that from focus trees which have several dozen branching options.

Quickly getting down that industrial buildup branch that leads to the fourth tech-slot for starts. Then focus on your desired armed service (army/af/navy) and win. As for Sweden be the arsenal of northern democracy and help Finland as much as possible (my nationality has nothing to do with this decision ;)), while pacifying the Germans. Finally opportunistically join the winning faction somewhere near the end of the war and join victory parades with glorious Swedish pansardivisoner without getting them into too much danger beforehand.
