Simple question. Suppose because of events in 1916 (which I'm still working on), the USA is forced to remain out of WW1. That's the point of divergence, so obviously the Germans are still going to beat Russia and the situation in Europe will not be changed. So, could the Germans win? I'm looking for a very plausible way they win, not reasons they could lose, cause we all know they're are plenty of them
And if the Germans do win, what do they demand of the allies? I'm guessing some territorial concessions from France in Europe, some colonies from both France and the UK, and some major economic reparations from France and the UK. What about Italy? I'm pretty sure by this point they would have joined the allies, so what does Germany want from them? I assume Austria Hungary gets some concessions from them. The Ottoman Empire probably gets some concessions. Finally, what would the Germans do next? Or the Austrians and Ottomans? Sorry for all the questions guys, I'm thinking of doing an alternate timeline off of this and I want it to be good and plausible.
