Hello everyone!
I'm pleased to announce something I've wanted to do for quite some time for Our Fair Country -- the first contest! The rules of this will be pretty simple. Anyone who wishes to enter must create a "DBWI" (Double Blind What If) for Our Fair Country where something happens differently! An example would someone deciding that the Socialist Republic of Germany succeeded, and defeated the Commonwealth to secure Germany. This can be a Wikibox, a Map, a Wikiarticle, or a write up. Do what you want! I will accept entries from now until Friday May 10th!
From the entries, I will take the top 2 (chosen by me) and announce the winners. There's, of course, a prize involved 
(Determined at the end of the contest)
Good luck to those who choose to enter! Any questions just DM me or catch me on Discord!
I'm also going to get to answering everyone's question's tonight. Sorry for the delay!
Here is my chance to submit a DBWI entry:
PoD: France succeeded in electing a Communist president ended up in a wrong turn when a failed coup had ended up into a series of violent attacks.
The
French Civil War was an eruption of dissatisfaction and a failed coup against the government of Third Republic after the election ended with Communist president Maurice Thorez and support was rapidly rising which had led to an open but bloody war that had left millions dead. The war has been started with the election of Maurice Thorez as a president after struggles in the 1948 election and failed coup followed led by Charles de Gaulle and his members of the National Restoration Army (ANR) which would further spur violence that had completely splintered the army in metropolitan France in which resulted in further military and police defections to the Charles de Gaulle's faction ANR, Maurice Thorez, whose now a president responds deliberately by proclaiming himself as a "Supreme Communard" and further establishing as Communard Republic of France in famous speech at National Assembly that has been occupied by French Communist Front.
Charles de Gaulle, leader of National Restoration Army had fled from Paris to Algiers, deliberately speaks to the people that the country wasn't bowed down to communard on his famous speech on what historians called "Appeal of July 14" (Appel du 14 Juillet) on which he declared himself as a sole legitimate leader of France in which had only days lasted until hostile actions on July 15 which had further speeding up an 'action of provocation' that was commencing the first battle between the National Restoration Army and the Communard in Marseille on that day that the first battle was the start of campaign between the competing factions and the civil war had spread to its colonies in Indochina and other colonies due to an outbreak of what was the first years of the battle between the Communard and National Restoration forces.
However, the news that had further alarmed the British government as the news of communist takeover had also spread. The British government moved towards the intervention by the second week of August, and was able to secure the assistance of Canada, New England, Australia, and New Zealand. The Commonwealth represented the strongest and largest anti-Communist force in France as there was a mechanism that could raise more soldiers in assisting the anti-Communard forces while National Restoration Army was able to encourage citizens of opposing the Communard regime to rise up as well as raising soldiers from French colonies. In response, the Communard Republic of France had raised its soldiers and militias by that time the British had formally intervened.
The Commonwealth forces had assisting the National Restoration Army in taking a large amounts of metropolitan France from Communard control and it was realized that the French Communards had raised million forces to defend against the Commonwealth intervention but suffered amounts of losses in Riviera Campaign while the British had launched large-scale amphibious Operation William in taking control of Provence from Communard control while counter-offensive by the February 1949 had proven the National Restoration Army was driven out by large numbers of Communard forces. The goal for Operation William was to capture Marseilles, while the second invasion, named Operation Clandestine took place along the English Channel. Primarily composed of French National Restoration, New English, Australian, and New Zealander forces led by Admiral Bertram Ramsay, the assaults against Aquitaine would become the deadliest campaign ever waged by the Commonwealth. Despite the setbacks and inflicting heavy losses, the National Restoration was managed to secure much of Northern part and perform campaigns to link with the anti-Communard French forces in the western part of France from mid 1949 to early 1950 and was able to decapitate the remaining Communard with the Liberation of Paris by December 1950.
The last remaining pockets of Communard forces has been surrendered as the French National Restoration wage the Burgundian Campaign to dislodge the remaining pockets of the French Communards until the last capital of the French Communard has been captured and marked the end of resistance, and the Fourth Republic was proclaimed on 30th of September, 1951.
