AHC: Yugoslavia collapses in the 30s

Post Radić assassination protests turn even more violent could be a PoD. Another is a much more increased represion post Alexander assassination sparks armed resistance from HSS militia.
 
Serbian agressive moves to size total control of power, ethnic tensions escalating btw Slavs and nonSlavs, get a few WWI AH veterans putting a free corps toguether and you might have a 30s version of the 90s Yugoslav mess. If the Slovenian and Croatian militias are lead by WW1 veterans of the AH Army an approach to the AH right wing is possible. The economical crisis of 1929 having shown how small weak economies are exposed, some nostalgia to a delusional idea of past imperial prosperity might trigger a merging with Austria, particulary if Austria helps in the civil war. Germany preventing exploitation by Italy generates a proGerman feeling that late facilitates the merge btw the new bigger Austria and Germany. But this will put Austria on much more equal footing, and change the Reich a bit. Lots of possibilities for Italo German wars here. I once said in another thread that an early war with Mussolini was the best thing that could happen to Hitler...

Might as well reuse my post on the other thread and recycle it here:D
 
Serbs did have total control on power, there was even a period when King delcared a dictatorship.
