    Never mind, I have to go now. So I'll get some entries up tomorrow. :)
  2. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    I just realized that I forgot posting this article: Attack on Mers-el-Kébir: On May 27 1942, British Admiral Sir James Frownes Somerville delivers an ultimatum to French Navy Minister Admiral François Darlan, demanding him to either remove his fleet to neutral waters, or to surrender them to...

  4. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Franco-Japanese Negotiations: In 1940, Japanese Prime Minister and Prince Fumimaro Konoe (近衞 文麿) had introduced the East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere into the Japanese politics. With the proclamation of a new weak French Republic, barely capable of suppressing the rising criminality and vandalism...
  5. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    In the long run, yes. :) Just as in OTL, the 'friendship' between the Western Allies and the USSR got wrecked in the end of WWII. ;)
  6. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    The Invasion of Hungary: On June 12 1942, the German 16th and 18th Army, commanded by Generaloberst Wilhelm List and Generaloberst Friedrich Paulus respectively, cross the western Hungarian border. The Hungarians, having expected the invasion, had already deployed the Hungarian First Army...

  9. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    British Anti-Invasion Preparations: The thought of a (successful) German invasion is also present in the United Kingdom itself. The nation is still recovering from the collapse of their Expeditionary Force and after the great performances by the German Reichswehr in France, no one considers a...
  10. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Great job, Ares96, as usual! Annexation of Bohemia and Moravia: On June 7 1942, it is decided by the German cabinet that Czechia should be annexed into the German Reich, allowing the construction of a highway between Silesia and Ostmark, and giving Germany full control over the (greatly...
  11. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Because, after some rethinking, I realized that Bohemia and Moravia have a population of over 8 million (likely anti-German) Czechs, which might be quite problematic for the Reich, since it's a democracy. But as usual, you're welcome to give your own opinion on that: after all I'd love it if...
  12. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Yet that's better than nothing, and I'm grateful for your help. ;) German Invasion of Czecho-Slovakia: On May 27 1942, German forces formerly stationed in France are deployed on the Czecho-Slovak border region. Soon, the I, II and III Panzerkorps and I and II Infanterieformations are...
  13. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Thank you very much for that useful explanation, Kelenas. :)
  14. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Oh, no, excuse me. That's because the volunteer units were called volunteer legions by the Waffen-SS in OTL. I think it makes sense for any army to call it that... but I need your opinion on that.
  15. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Sorry for the late update. My laptop is broken, so it's hard for me to find the opportunity to create and publish articles. Anyways, here are some articles for my fatherland the Netherlands, and for occupied Belgium. Construction of the Afsluitdijk: In January 1927, the Dutch government...
  16. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Seems fine to me! Having a Breton-speaking city as the nation's capital seems like a good motivation for the rest of the population to learn the language, and a central location is indeed a lot more logical. And of course I wouldn't want to ruin your map! :p Give me a few minutes, and the...
  17. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Perhaps. :) But they'll be drawn into the war, willingly or unwillingly. And here are the updates for the African Front: Situation in Namibia: On April 20 1942, the Terceira Divisão de Infantaria Expedicionária of General Eurico Gaspar Dutra (now consisting of approximately 47,000 men due...
  18. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Here is one. I had to make it on someone else's PC, and I accidentally saved the unfinished map in JPG, so I am unable to add a grey line around France. :( If someone else's able to do it, that'd be awesome. ;) And besides that, I am a horrible map-maker if it comes to large maps with precise...
  19. Das Dritte Reich: Deutschland's Letzte Gelegenheit

    Thanks everyone, for making me realize what a horribly mean move that was. :p Excuse me for that heartless action; the armistice itself is enough of a punishment for the French. :) That's awesome, Wyragen, thank you! If I recall, that's Pétain's personal flag, isn't it? You'll get credit for...
