One thing I love pointing out to people is that technically, North Korea is not a one-party dictatorship. There is even a 'right-wing opposition' in the country in the form of a social democratic party with seats in the People's Assembly! But unless you are a tankie, no one is going to...

https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fxn0e52pb9joc1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D682%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D17d3efa9234bf54e3151e6e467ced90910ec82f3 - The PALF are not imperialist because they are just using military force to invade other West African countries, the...

The issue that people have with the PALF isn’t because they think the people of Camaroon ‘deserves’ to be conquered and oppressed…. But because they are using their Pan-Africanist ideology to justify conquering and oppressing other Africans. The same way that Imperial Japan did with a good chunk...

A Yugoslavia backed by Japan's Co-Prosperity Sphere, no less. More or less exporting Imperial Japan's model of BS 'Pan-Asianism' to an African context with an addition a red coat of paint. I also question what will happen after the PLAF win the West African War against the FMA/WAA... Will they...

Just off the top of my head, from the video game "Order of Battle: World War II", when playing the mission for Pearl Harbor as the US, you can get an ATL scenario by minimizing US loses while maximizing the same for Japan. Starting with not mistaking the first wave of attack as B-17 bombers that...

Especially in the context of a HOI4 alternate history mod... A HOI4 alternate history mod that even the dev themselves fully acknowledge as starting with an unrealistic premise.... And said scenario existing within the said HOI4 mod as an in-universe ideological wank that is widely mocked as...

Well, mind explaining your views of why this is the case? I am interested in hearing your perspective on this matter.

I suppose if you start from a communist perspective (Which for the record, I absolutely do not), you can use Walter Duranty's line of, 'But – to put it brutally – you can’t make an omelet without breaking eggs', when downplaying the full horror of the Holodomor. It does not matter if an ATL...

Well, so is the term 'wholesome'. I am not going for an ad hominem here, but the OP self identify as a 'commie'. Hence, working within that ideological framework, the definition of 'wholesome' is going to be fundamentally different from what a liberal democrat, a conservative, a democratic...

Ok... I will let my own political bias speak for me here, but you know the meme here on AH.com of 'Notzis'? In which people more or less some up with TLs such as 'What if the Nazis were less racists against Slavs, and actually came to the people of Ukraine and the Baltics as liberators from the...

Would Mao accept such a deal? The US recognizing the PRC is only words as far as he is concerned. While a reunification of Korea under the RoK will mean a Western aligned and anti-communist Korea right there on the boarder across the Yalu River. With someone as paranoid as Mao, I cannot imagine...

So, I have not really followed TNO development for a while now, and showing up to Reddit, it seems like that there has been some.... Massive drama relating to the leak of new background lore regarding Operation Sealion. Namely, that the American dropped herbicide all over Southeastern England in...

Hi everyone. This might end up going to sound like a stupid question, but I got to ask.... I showed up to the TNO sub-Reddit yesterday, and it seem like the place blew up with discussions about Burgundy getting removed from the mod in a future update, the entire 'realism of the setting vs. the...

Hi everyone. I am sorry that this is sadly NOT an update. However, the artist that I have commissioned for making maps for this TL no longer appears to be working despite my attempt to contact him. I really, really DO want to continue this TL, but so far, all the other artists specializing in...

The counties of 'Canada North' and 'USA America' amuse me more compared to the mega Mexican Empire controlling all of Central America plus the Caribbean, or Bolivia ruling over Chile.
