At the start of the game, there are several countries (mostly in eastern europe) that are guaranteed at the start of the game, but I've noticed a lot of them are revoked due to various focuses. Is there a list somewhere of when each of the guarantees expire?

Romania's guarantees get revoked some time in 1941 when they appoint their pro-axis government.
Specifically:
France's "Buy Time" focus is 7th on their historical list.
Czechoslovakia's "Trust in the West" focus is 8th on their historical list (or, as the game files put it: "Let's die to Germany! Yaaaaaaaaaay!").
Romania's "Appoint Pro-Axis Government" focus is 23rd on their historical list. (I'm not quite sure if/how Italy dodges their guarantee on Greece if they invade beforehand.)

They never expire, they can be revoked by expending PP which the AI never does or can be revoked by event as told before me and also they can be revoked automatically if the guaranteed nation joins a faction.
