    Now this is too much of a tease even for me, pictures please.

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    This is a bit off topic, but reading about the Algiers putsch reminded me of For All Time and how inherently dictatorial the names in that TL where: Darlan, Challe, Salan. Lovely bunch. So how do they describe Rome in historical terms, say in schools? I would image that they would have a...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    I hope that this will be explained in a latter post, like the idea that Europa is 'liberal' I get the impression that we missed some important cultural developments, not like that is particularly bad as only so much can be written down in a manner that keeps the whole thing reasonable...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    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...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    I doubt even Bismarck could have achieved victory in a situation where due to incompetence, the combined manpower of all of Catholic Europe vanishes into a black hole in such a manner that Tsarist Russia manages to just roll over the Carpathians. I'm surprised that it took as long as it did for...

    That brings up an interesting question, what are the Prussians going to call such a polity? I'm not sure that Empire of Germany, (without Bismarck they are going to be anal enough to actually insist on putting the empire part first) is going to fly as Finland is till around. I'm personally...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    There is simply not going to be a 'France' or at least a relevant version thereof, after all is said and done, the Germans might tolerate an independent Spain or Italy but France is going to torn to ribbons. All of this ironically enough gives the RU a rather interesting option if you consider...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    The English and Germans have more than enough soldiers to sit on France, or what's left of it after they have finished tearing it pieces. Absolutely nothing is stopping Germany from 'cleansing' areas of interest, in this world it would be seen as a moderate option. This discussion is honestly...

    Obviously they would not annex it, but setting up a puppet state would be highly doable.

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    Would they? Europe north of the Carpathians and west of the Rhine is one massive plain, if the Russians just rush Berlin it would be possible that Prussia would be driven to the breaking point if the League actually manages to pull of such an attack and with Prussia gone Viktor would be able to...

    Wait what? That would be a massive update by itself. Can you provide canonical evidence for the League of Tsars declaring war on the Central Powers?

    I'm confused, as far as I am aware Russia and the Central Powers are not at war?

    Norway has been fighting on the side of the Central Powers since the beginning of the conflict. They have also been described as explicitly fascist in canonical text:

    Viola! I gave SAANCP some territory north of the Amazon because I doubt that they would tolerate not being compensated. Do inform me if the resolution is a bit off, I am still a bit new to this. As well if I have made any other mistakes. Edit: Fixed Albanian front and some other stuff. I...

    I would hypothesise that the lost Jewish tribe stuff could be used to grant 'honorary' Better status to select racial groups, particularly martial ones like Gurkhas, Chechens, Circassians etc. That could be the project of a 'progressive' RU faction.

    Weeeeeeeeel to be honest the Caucasus was always a rather iffy region for white supremacists. With the whole Circassian beauty stuff.

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    The RU will never tolerate the domination of South America by a revolutionary power and neither will Columbia or Peru. So Asia, Africa, Australasia and South America will (somehow) be ruled by one nation each? That would be very dull in my opinion and I find your theory to be quite frankly...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    It doesn't really count as a Cold War when the Japanese can roll your entire empire in months. Wars can be divided into 'diplomacy by force' and wars of national survival. Do think that this war, being as it is explicitly racial and religious is going to end with all the major powers intact...

    "What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

    Well in geopolitical terms, what defines South America is that it is rather isolated from the rest of the planet in much the same manner that Oceania 'hangs off' the edge of the map and that it is generally more stable than the rest of the world with significantly fewer wars and territorial...
