I think I have a pretty good Idea as to how war justifications should work for Fascist countries, hear me out.

So once a fascist nation presses a claim on a region or two, that fascist nation should have to present the target nation with an ultimatum, accepting means peacefully handing over claimed territory(s) and causing a world tension increase depending on the size of the claim, declining means war and a much sharper world tension increase. This only applies if the Fascist Nation is at peace and world tension is somewhat low.

For example, in 1937 Hungary starts pressing claims on southern Slovakia, Once the fabrication is complete, Hungary has to present Czechoslovakia with an ultimatum, hand over the region or it's war. let's say they do, and world tension increases a bit. Hungary then starts pressing claims on the rest of Slovakia and Czechoslovakia is guaranteed by Great Britain. This time Czechoslovakia is emboldened by the guarantee and refuses starting a war.

The ultimatum feature would not apply if world tension was at 90% and everybody was reaching for their guns, and would not apply if Hungary was, for example already at war with the allies.

Just a thought

This sounds cool, but I think it should be more of an option for the attacker, if the attacker wants the entire country, but only ends up with a state because of the ultimatum, then that would kind of be limiting. Where this would fit, though, if for cores. Using your example, let's say hungary has a core in Czechoslovakia, (I think they do) Hungary then asks for the territory that is "rightfully theirs", treaty of munich style.

I've thought about this too. This absolutely would fall apart if it were applied to just claims.
I'm sure it could make sense cores, but the problem is whether it will actually work as designed.

For instance I could see Italy giving France an ultimatum, or Sweden giving one for Finland over Aaland.
If someone made a mod I would definitely try it.
And if it really worked well I'm sure the devs would take notice. Something just makes me have a feeling it wont work though
