A small part of the Indian coast was controlled by Portugal (also small islands and territories by France and Portugal not needed becuz too small). So if you can add Hong Kong and even Macau then why not Goa? Goa was Portuguese since the medical times till the 60's .

It is bigger than Macau, and Hong Kong, why it shouldn't be added, it isn't as small as Puducherry or dadra haveli diu islands that are not possible to see. Even if it didn't play a role. We'll just forget it was Portuguese? Boliva played no part in the war, nor did Portugal, why are they on the map? Goa can be seen it's not THAT tiny.
2) Compared to even smaller territories like Hong Kong and Macau, Goa didn't play a role in the war, being part of neutral Portugal. - from previous post.
Now, to elaborate: Bolivia didn't play a role in WW2, hence why it is an AI nation (if I remember correctly). Portugal is an AI nation as it was neutral. Venezuela and Peru were added as playable nations for making South America more interesting, not for historical accuracy. Now, I think Sweden is playable even though it was neutral, but it did have a role in WW2, which I think was the supplying of resources to Nazi Germany since they were at least on decent terms.
Why would you want Goa to be included? Historical accuracy? Yes, that's valid reasoning. However, is there any other reason to include it? Currently, I cannot think of one. To be honest, I was quite surprised Macau was included on the map, but since it's added, might as well keep it there to prevent more hassles. Have I ever heard of Goa before? Maybe, but it would likely be from the golden age of Portugal in the 1500s. For a small AND (if I may be frank) completely useless colony in the war effort, I don't think the effort it would need to add it is worth it.

If so why isn't the rest of India part of Britan? Why isn't canada part of britan? Why isn't Brazil part of Portugal??
Get it?
The Historical World War round is based in 1939. Brazil gained independence from Portugal in 1821, and Canada declared its independence in 1867. India was still part of Britain, hence its name, "British India"

Before 1939 there was a huge protest thing which gave india the same autonomy as canada

1939 why is bangladesh independent
It's not, at least not in the 1939 historic world war map, the other maps are for gameplay. Also, in 1939 India wasn't even independent and was still under British control, only in 1947 would India be independent. Anyways the tiny nation of Luxembourg has 3 provinces, so these small ports make sense, as an non-core province at least.
