I've heard it said that whether it's a Germanywank or a Russiawank, the outcome is always a Polandscrew. Wank them both without screwing over Poland. Bonus points if you also wank Poland in the process.
Maintain the Russo-German Bund minus Austria instead of having Germany pick Austria once the Dreikaiserbund fell apart. Then have Russia and Germany divide up Austria and Russia then unify Polish territories it has as a special administrative area and find a way to divide up the Ukrainian and Polish areas fairly in Galicia. Germany then is strengthened by the Austrian half of the Austro-Hungarian Empire minus Galicia, while Hungary becomes an independent kingdom, with Russia getting Galicia and a sphere of influence in the Balkans, while Hungary is allied/subordinated to Germany and Russia. Such a Russo-German alliance cannot be challenged by the Italian/French/British Entente.I've heard it said that whether it's a Germanywank or a Russiawank, the outcome is always a Polandscrew.
