Will politicians from other countries be in the game?

If the player were to annex Canada, would IRL Canadian Politicians appear? Could you have President Wilfrid Laurier for example?

There will be a notable alternate country politicians in the game, but the majority of alt state pols will be generated.

There's a very small handful of real life politicians from other countries.  For example, I think maybe Trudeau can appear in the game if you've conquered Canada.  But it's less than 3 real life politicians per country in the game, some have zero.  They'll be randomly generated instead.

What is the standard to define "notability"?

I created only about 20 token politicians for most ahistorical nations that can be annexed, and fewer if the nation is less likely to be annexed. I'll add more on demand, but only after early release is released. The chance of annexing ahistorical territory is slim, although Canada is more likely than, say, Brazil.
