* IKnewIt: Martin "Wiz" Anward leaving his very successful and well-regarded tenure as lead developer for ''VideoGame/{{Stellaris}}'' for a top-secret "dream project" was very widely suspected to be a ''Victoria'' sequel, both because such a game was long overdue and because, during his tenure, the economic and planetary management system for ''Stellaris'' (which originally resembled that of ''VideoGame/GalacticCivilizations'') was conspicuously reworked to much more closely resemble ''Victoria''. Of course these suspicions were vindicated in May 2021.

* SleeperHit: One of the reasons support for ''Victoria II'' was discontinued so early and that it took so many years for a new ''Victoria'' sequel to be announced is because the game sold poorly, and indeed, continuing the ''Victoria'' series ''at all'' seemed like a gamble for Paradox. It came as a huge surprise to pretty much everyone when it was announced that the game sold ''over half a million copies'' in its first month of release.

* DummiedOut: Upon release, ''Victoria II'' had submarines and aircraft carriers as possible naval units, just like the original. For unspecified reasons, both were quickly dummied out in ''The House Divided'' and the patch related to it. They are still in the game files, however, and at least a few mods have brought them back.
