San Francisco Conference and Asia
San Francisco Conference and Asia
Middle East:
The status quo antebellum was preserved, but the Soviets insisted on a non-reciprocal de-militarized zone in the Persia-Soviet border.
Afghanistan was awarded the Pashtun areas that she occupied.
Central Asia:
All of the Central Asian republics were returned to the USSR in return for Manchuria (along with some Soviet concessions and considerable autonomy for the Autonomous Region of Socialist Manchuria.) Despite the feeling of betrayal by the Republic of China, many decided to flee to China fearing retribution and purges by the NKVD for collaboration, suspected collaboration and/or consuming the same oxygen as Chinese troops within a 30 kilometer radius. The flood of central Asian refugees, combined with another wave of Jewish expulsions in the Reich would strain already streched Chinese food supplies to the limit and cause a famine - but that’s the next chapter.
India:
India was split along Uti possidetis lines with each India having possession over the territory they presently controlled.
Burma:
Burma was returned to the British Empire in exchange for Hainan. Before returning them, the clumsy troops of the National Revolutionary Army and the secret police of the Bureau of Statistics and Investigation accidentally and clumsily left behind millions of tons of ammunition along with plenty of guns and supplies (similarly to how British troops would also misplace supplies in about to be returned Libya and Ethiopia.)
Indochina :
The divided French government was in no position or mood to play hardball, simply being content to divide Indochina along present lines.
China:
Hainan was returned to China in exchange for Burma and Manchuria was returned in exchange for Chinese-held central Asia and a host of extraterritorial rights, agreements to share mineral wealth and a 50 year lease on Port Arthur for the Soviet Union.
OOC: Sorry for the barebones nature of the updates. I’m running out of creative juice, but be assured that the post-war content should see a return to form. They’re going to be the ones I alluded to earlier that focussed on the terms of various leaders which should hopefully give more detail and context to what’s going on.
Planned updates:
US President William Wallace: The Peacemaker who won the peace, but lost the election. (1944-48)
Fuhrer Adolf Hitler: Building Greater Germany (1945-54)
President Chiang Kai-Shek: The Decade of Rice and Salt (1945-55)
General Secretary Joseph Stalin: Socialism in Many Countries (1945-56)
