My enjoyment of this TL has been hurt a bit by the complete collapse of Europa, the sheer amount of dysfunction needed for the combined industrial and manpower capabilities of Catholic Europe to not roll over Prussia and most of Russia like its 1942 have to be immense and I don't feel like I was informed of them sufficiently. This is especially confusing when the Netherlands and Russia, states that should be as overextended as Europa seem to be doing just fine.
Considering the fact that the Tsars have been historically dependent on the nobility to manage their massive Empire, Russia should have been a rather more delicate construction than it was IRL due to Viktor wiping out much of the nobility. Prussia, divested of the Rhine should have had a lot of difficulty getting enough industry to challenge Europa.
The biggest problem I have, is that the Europans seem to want to lose, there is a deep malaise and cowardice which is crippling Europa and I don't know what is causing it. Where are the millions of Catholic fanatics ready to fight a new Baltic Crusade? How are the most industrialised and populous parts of Europe being beaten this badly?
I have honestly no idea anymore how to calculate the given strength of any faction. This shouldn't happen, but I honestly see the French Buetalists getting a memetic badass and 10 million angry Frenchmen finally getting off their asses so that the Germans don't just occupy all of western Europe like they should be able to.
I don't know, maybe Charles de Gaulle could appear, although to be fair the man was always a bit to sane to fit into a dystopia.
