So maybe ITTL Kumazawa Hiromichi has his claims of descent from Emperor Go-Kameyama taken more seriously by the post-war occupation authorities? Although I have a feeling if he's placed on the Chrysanthemum Throne, the Japanese public would go postal

So, which Japan's going to end up worse? The Japan of TTL, or the Japan of @The Red's Decisive Darkness?

Even though it's probably down the road another decade or more like OTL, how is the Space Race going to be? The presence of a weaker Soviet Union and a fascist Italy are going to have a definite effect on the rate of milestones achieved. In the case of the Soviet Union, it likely won't capture...

In Africa, Algeria is definitely off the table, so most likely France would give off chunks what else they hold there. As for Indochina, it depends on postwar developments; if it after throwing out the IJA, it comes back under French control relatively easily, most likely nothing changes. But if...

RIP Zhukov

Am I correct in guessing this mysterious "certain guy in the Balkans" is Josip Tito? Maybe the Italians place Haile Selassie back on the throne as a puppet as a means of indirect control?

Stepping aside from this debate, @Sorairo , with a the lack of Mediterranean and North African campaigns for the Brits and the Americans, as well as the European theater ending much earlier than OTL, how has the Asian-Pacific theater been impacted ITTL? A lot could be done with more resources...

How's the Pacific War ITTL? The same as OTL, or has its course been butterflied away?

I saw a mention of Mao and Bose.... Does this mean a Second United Front and Nazi-sponsored Indian revolts?

This is what I figured. The reason I asked this question in the first place is I've noticed that a lot of Axis Victory TLs tend to use a German victory at Stalingrad as the main POD, which has always struck me as borderline ASB. Now I'm relegating it to the full ASB bin.

What would the ramifications be if the Germans successfully took Stalingrad? Would they be able to take the Caucusus or would their lines be over extended to the point of easily being cut by the Red Army? How would this effect the war effort on both sides? Ignore how they do it, just assume...

I think it's pretty unlikely. China north of the Yangtze/Changjiang is flat plain, where as south it's interspersed with hilly terrain and forests. The former is much more conductive to establishment of a state than the latter, especially for a conquering army.

So INGSOC/Neo-Bolshevism/whatever the hell Eastasia practices?

I just finished reading the thread up to this point. Really great stuff @WaterproofPotatoes. Like @The Red and his "Our Struggle" timeline, you've managed to make me sympathize with someone I think was a complete bastard in OTL (namely Tojo). In a way, this thread is like the opposite side of...

He was also quite the poet as well. Awesome stuff by the way Red. You've done the unthinkable and made me sympathize with Hitler. At this point, you're probably my favorite writer in this site with zepplinair and his Asian TLs at a close second.
