Alrighty, here my latest map (the Ethiopia thing from a few days ago is from it).
While I did borrow some basic ideas from the HOI2 Kaiserreich mod, especially America splitting after ACW2 and India divided three ways and Socialist Western Europe, this is meant to be separate.
The PoD is Germany winning WWI as a result of somewhat better decisions and America not getting involved. The resultant victory was not total and
resultingly only lead to them forcing France to accept the demilitarization of the border on its side, setting-up states carved out of European Russia and picking-up a few colonies.
Following the war (which went much worse for Britain) Britain and France fell to Socialist Revolutions; the French government, about half the military and, over several years, about 100,000 Frenchmen fled to French North Africa, likewise the British Government and Royal Family, accompanied by 60% of the military fled to Canada, while hundreds of thousands of British citizens fled to the White Dominions and South Africa.
In the 1920's Italy began suffering its own problems, political fallout and economic problems would lead to a Revolution and the founding of the People's Republic of Italy.
In 1931 the American Stock Exchange crashed and America, already suffering economically from reduced trade and economic problems began to suffer internal unrest, Trade Union Strikes started popping-up throughout the Industrialized regions and the Socialist Party (w/o WW1 the government could'nt take draconian measures against them) gaining in popularity.
In 1932 the Elections were won by the Republican party (who'd become more economically rightist) in a contested election in which he won the Electoral Vote, but not the popular vote, this lead to many protests and sympathetic strikes, and after worsening economic measures and the government calling the National Guard to break-up strikes would lead to the Second American Civil War, which started out as the Federal Government against Unionists and Socialists (who themselves had support by an ever growing amount of the populace) but would end-up even more complicated by the 'American Union' a political group with militias in the South who sought to use the chaos to further their political agenda, which was primarily Fundamentalism, and ensuring White Dominance and the 'Pacific States of America', a collection of Western states who had been largely unscarred by earlier events declaring itself an 'Armed and Neutral' Autonomous Region.
Ultimately the Civil War would end in 1937 the with dissolution of the United States and the creation of three new states, the aforementioned PSA, the Republic of New England (backed by Canada with its now oversizedd military) and the United Syndicates of America.
Over following years the world saw many political changes, including, but not limited to, the Brazilian and Spanish Revolutions, the subsequent 'Fall of Portugal', Germany beginning to decline somewhat and the formation of the European Defence Union, comprised of France, Britain and the Iberian Federation.
By 1940 things were beginning to change, and a string of events would lead to WWII starting in early 1945 with the initial war being between Germany and her allies (which were all mostly minor states) and the EDU, however in 1946 North Italy, with the promise of aide from Germany joined the war and at the same time began an attack on Southern Italy, who they perceived to be weak at the time.
In 1947 the war would enter its turning point, the EDU came to agreement with the Russian Republic (the moderates won the Civil Wat and it's resultingly became a Democracy) and its allies; they would enter the war separately, but co-ordinate with the EDU.
In 1948 the U.S.A, seeing the EDU as its natural allies and angered at Germany blockading their trade with them would enter the war on the EDU's side.
By 1950 the war was mostly over and in October of that year the Treaty of London was signed, officially ending the war and establishing reparations and territorial changes.
After the war the world started seeing major changes.
The EDU was brought closer by the war and over the course of the 50's began a process that would lead to the formation of the European Confederation in 1962, which, while technically a single, Federal State, still allowed its members a very high amount of autonomy and some degree of separate Foreign Policy.
In Russia, with the inclusion of its new territories over the years Eurasianism (not the OTL ideology) became very popular and, in 1958 with the adoption of a new Constitution the Russian Republic and its 'Autonomous Republics' merged to form the Eurasian Federal Republic.
By 1965 the world has settled into a Cold War, with the European Confederation and its allies on one side, the Canadian Lead 'Global Treaty Organization' on another and the EFR and its allies on the other with many countries either unaligned or only weakly aligned to.
The world is however nowhere near as stable as the OTL Cold War, the Netherlands faces growing calls for 'Full Independence' in its Indonesian Dominions and growing discontent at home while the Kingdom of Hindustan is barely managing to suppress the growing amount of 'dissidents' and the Kingdom of China (Fujian) is very near collapse as a result of economic embargoes and spending so much on maintaining its military along its Northern border.
