It did. Leopold Senghor, national idol of the Senegal, was a deputy. However, most of them were white Frenchman and there were very few people with Senegalese origins that received citizenship.

As someone that comes from Osnabrück (even more, a Lokalpatriot, as Germans would say) , I was pleasently surprised when I began to read the latest chapter. But it was far too dark for my taste. I would love it if the end of the chapter was actually only a cliffhanger, that little Karin survives...

He actually is and I was very surprised to read that other Germans did not read him in school. We had a number of his poems throughout my school years. Like many here, I am not all that interested in poems, but Der Panther for example is, I believe, very impressive and quite well known.

I just watched a panel (from 2014) with Helmut Schmidt and a boy born in FÜrth with the name Heinz Alfred Kissinger. I cannot but wonder what happens to both of them in this TL. In OTL, Kissinger had left Germany in 1938 and Schmid served nearly the entire war on the frontlines. Both were among...

This seems like a key experience for her character. Using all that she has learned, all the confidence she has gained and all the authority provided to her by the Patriotic Union to impose her will and lay down the law on others. No longer just a receiver of orders, but actually giving them to...

In OTL, there were several prominent female pilots working for Germany's a Armed Forces in WW2. Beate Uhse - today, every German knows her for different reasons - Melitta von Staufenberg, Hannah Reitsch, just from the top of my head. There were probably more. It would certainly not be impossible...

The way I see it, Russia should not be able to do to Germany what Germany did to France in WWII (assuming you are not talking about France WWI). Russia should be weaker than they were in OTL, seeing that they probably never received military aid from Germany, that there is no Rapallo. Even with...

These last few chapters have been truly great. You slowly built up towards it, Peabody, but let me tell you, the crescendo does not disappoint at all! I don't think keeping Sauvegot alive was according to the rules either. He never got a trial or anyhting, few people ever knew what became of...

So, is this the end of the Habsburg Monarchy? Bohemia and Slovakia will have Wilhelm as Emperor but political independence? Great to see that a peaceful resolution to the protests seems possible!

Great chapter, but I am not sure I understand it. Why would they keep the rescue of the Tsar and his family secret? Germany and England, the US and even France, all were on the side of White Russia anyway, and every Bolshevik knows it. Proclaiming they saved the Tsar would be a great boost for...

I must say, this is truely a great TL, and I cannot yet see how the war will end, so I eagerly await the next chapters! The PoVs you employ make it even more enjoyable to read. An Entente victory does seem certain at this, though I hope that the various butterflies will have a deep impact on the...
