I'm sorry but I may be losing track of things, what is Egosim and when was it mentioned in this TL? That's a tad optimistic, isn't Brazil balkanized?

That list is a combination of minor conflicts, conflicts that occurred outside of Europe and various national revolutions. All of this is mirrored in this timeline with Balkan wars of independence, the English Revolution and Caesar's Crusade. A number of the conflicts that you listed also...

I don't know about that, pacifying an entire continent, a good chunk of it impassable mountain and jungle would be real pain in the ass. You do have a point in that with all major powers committed it does make sense to start grabbing the planetary periphery when you are as yet (somewhat)...

Well yes but geopolitics comes before ideology, preventing Europe from unifying is much more important than conquering South America. Secondly the Republican Union has never permitted fanaticism to override good geostrategy, The RU has consistently shown itself to be able to control its...

You do have a point in that its not like the RU can protect its influence with something like the Monroe Doctrine, hard to do diplomacy when most of the planet is on the list.

Its very important to consider that in terms of population distribution the world looks a bit like this: South America is important but its hardly a threat, the RU's first instinct would be to keep Europe divided.

I don't know I still have my money on Europa, the loss of the Danubian basin is disastrous but not more so than the loss of Ukraine was for the Soviets, Europa still has the Catholic Rhineland, all of Latin Europe as well as a mountainous Austria that is still holding on. The Euro-Fascists on...

Just so you know the cylinder like thing on top of the tank (in my opinion) is what is called a 'fascine'. Wood and plastic bundled together so that the tank can have a bridge to cross over a trench or a ditch. Britannic Union soldiery and land-battleships advance through the lowlands to put...

Wait a minute. Since when where tanks invented?

Maybe I skimmed over comments a bit too much, but as far as I can see people aren't giving much attention to how this war is becoming Yugoslavia circa 1990s, only covering the entire continent. Oh and...... Grand Army of Islam. I wonder when we will see some African wars of liberation on the...

Irish poverty and depopulation where directly caused by colonialism, an independent Ireland would have a massively larger population due to far less emigration/death by famine. Now of course there is a limit, Ireland is simply smaller than England, but despite this an Ireland that was able to...

Isn't 'Hendrick' dead? I wonder if there are any fanatic AFC Jews sneaking into Europan Levantine, with the Catholic Imperium distracted and the Muslims recking havoc, I wouldn't be surprised if there was some preliminary Zionism, just to test the waters as it there. This of course brings up...

It should be remembered that the 'German myth of the East' which reached its apex with Generalplan Ost was directly inspired by American expansion into the Great Plains, with Slavs substituted for Native Americans. Keeping that in mind how radical will German expansionists become?

Don't forget that this counts for nations like Ireland too! Relative to IRL history Ireland has much more potential than Prussia or Sweden to grow. Industry is limited by population, there is a reason to why Sweden slid into irrelevance as industrialisation spread, as much as I criticise the...

As opposed to having little to no industry like the NordReich? Europa still has North Italy, Central France and the strongly Catholic parts of Rhine which as I recall are most of them: Looking at this map (and those numbers!). And considering the fact that in this world there would be even...

So we have the foundation of the American Versailles, I do have to say that the mobile ovens where positively inspired. I still do think that the Euro-fascists are doing rather too well. Apart from the Netherlands and possibly England they all lack industrial/population weight.

Wouldn't such an invasion be immediately crippled by the fascists cutting off supplies at the Bering Strait? It's not like the RU would be taken by surprise with its insanely effective foreign service. Do you see the Russians trying to march an Army through this?: Hint: Everything in that...

Mistake here? Are the Russians attacking Canada from the west?

Why? I didn't exactly pull this out of my ass. If dehumanisation led to cannibalism ensuing during total warfare in IRL when I don't really see why it would not happen in the Madnessverse http://www.pegc.us/archive/Articles/welch_naval_MCs.pdf...

@Napoleon53 you might want to have a look at this Wikipedia article. Such behaviour was also a thing in West Africa though admittedly I have not been able to find that much information bar the fact that it was a 'big' thing in the region around Liberia. Though that might be because of IRL...
