Hearts Of Iron IV: Last Days Of Europe Mod - TNO Reference?

Wanda Bergstrom 10 May 2025

Is a seemingly innocuous mention of an alternate history video game mod enough to send a corner of the internet into a frenzy of copypasta and inside jokes? The answer, unequivocally, is yes, especially when that mod is "The New Order: Last Days of Europe" (TNO). This ambitious modification for Hearts of Iron IV has not only carved out a dedicated fanbase but has also spawned a unique and often bizarre online culture, complete with its own language, memes, and fervent devotees.

At the heart of this phenomenon lies the "TNO reference" copypasta, a chaotic explosion of emojis, declarations of the mod's greatness, and fervent praise for certain in-game characters. The copypasta, often deployed in response to even the slightest allusion to TNO, serves as a shibboleth, instantly identifying those who are "in the know" and triggering a cascade of further references and in-jokes. The exact origin of this copypasta remains shrouded in mystery, adding to its mystique and appeal. Two primary versions circulate, one relatively concise and the other a more extended, unhinged barrage of text and imagery. But what exactly is it about TNO that has inspired such a fervent, meme-driven following?

Last Days of Europe is an ambitious mod for hearts of iron iv presenting a unique alternate history cold war between germany, japan and the usa, starting in 1962.

The TNO factions explaination the faction names have since been used as slang terms in the fandom, ironically and unironically, or posting after announcements to describe the change in influence and popularity of factions according to how they will change fan perception of the mod among various communities. The mod presents a dark and often disturbing vision of a world where the Axis powers emerged victorious from World War II. Germany, now a hyper-aggressive and internally decaying superpower, dominates Europe, while Japan controls much of Asia. The United States, weakened by internal divisions and the loss of key territories, struggles to maintain its position as a global power. This sets the stage for a tense and multifaceted Cold War, filled with proxy conflicts, ideological clashes, and the ever-present threat of nuclear annihilation.

But TNO is more than just a geopolitical simulator. It's a narrative-driven experience, with intricate storylines, compelling characters, and a focus on the human cost of ideological extremism. Players can guide their chosen nation through a series of difficult decisions, facing moral dilemmas and grappling with the consequences of their actions. The mod's commitment to historical detail, combined with its willingness to explore uncomfortable themes, has resonated with many players, fostering a deep sense of immersion and engagement. It is this complexity and depth that has allowed the community to create countless layers of inside jokes, memes, and slang terms.

Its over-the-top enthusiasm, its rapid-fire references, and its embrace of absurdity capture the spirit of a community that has fully embraced the mod's unique aesthetic and tone. The inclusion of specific elements, such as the praise for "Sablin" (a character known for his relatively benevolent path in the game) and the mention of "blacksun" (a symbol associated with the darkest elements of the mod's lore), further reinforces the copypasta's insider status.

Seoul of tno is a sticker on the official tno community discord server.

The copypasta tno meme has no known origins as far as we know, but it is still used to this day.

There is 2 popular versions of this meme, one being a relatively short copypasta while the other is longer.

Sometimes i\u2019m on a different subreddit then someone makes a tno reference then someone asks what the reference is, a different user responds with a massive essay on what tno is.

I feel like we should have a copypasta whenever someone asks what tno is.

Tno has achieved revisonism, just like the old leftist bias copypasta has told us about.

Only berezniki may save us now from a lack of updates and passion reply reply

No you dumbass redditor, this is not one of your \u201ctno references\u201d, those were his legitimate belief, i sincerely suggest you stop wasting your time playing the most dumbfuck of games with a mod you have already played for at least several days in a row hoping for a new update, and start spending your time getting bitches or riches or i do not fucking care just shut the fuck up i hate this

I used to deny that tno had a fascist bias, but seeing this really makes me question that.

Changing interesting lore to force in an ideology many nazis wank (maybe those burgsus jokes actually meant something) petlin could've just as easily been a russian fascist, but it just had to be authdem does this mean stuff like burgsys is gone now?

I'll be looking over teasers much more carefully now

Adio silence was considered an ultranationalist state, upon hitting the reunification button, i got the state of eurasia superevent, although my ruler remained the radio silence, with the remain calm;

The tno copypasta for reference:
