Well, who do you think is winning ? Wilson or Johnson ? Who are you rooting for ?
Wilson or Johnson ?
Fun fact is that I haven’t even diverged in much except his stroke and creating the FBI early. In fact I haven’t included some of his wartime acts or the War Industries Committee either. Yep, Wilson was just that Authoritarian on his second term.I'm inclined to think Wilson, if only becausethe devilWoodrow Wilson's rise to power seems to be a constant across most timelines without a far removed POD or utopian intent.
Poles, Ukrainians, Belorussians are mostly safe. The PNOR sees them as the “Slavic little brothers” of Russia that must be protected, although with the supervision of their elder sibling. Other minorities aren’t as condemned as Germans and Jews, but there will be specific chapters on what happens to them.What will be the status of Poles, Baltics, Ukranians, Belarussians, Turkics, Roma and other Russian minorities? How will the government react to each one?

I doubt it.I wonder if Zhukov is still a communist ITTL...
Just to make myself clear, Mikhail Tukhachevsky is not a Mary Sue that will just walk his way into power, he is certainly charismatic and militarily competent, but he does NOT rule alone, he isn’t a politician. People in his inner circle like Ivan Ilyin (who has a privileged law knowledge), Stalin (Who is as politically savvy as the Stalin who maneuvered his way into being dictator), and Yusupov (An aristocrat that grew up in the intrigue environment of Russian nobility) are the ones who are propping him up for their own reasons thinking he can be controlled. He has his own individual flaws (like a tendency of acting irresponsibly and aggressively when giving an opening as shown in the Polish Campaign) which will become more obvious once he reaches power.Such a poisoned chalice is a very dangerous move. Yes if it works it would destroy his career, but that is not assured. An skilled politician would be able to spin it as making the best of a bad situation even if he is hurt. And a really skilled one like Tukachesvsky would simply drink all the poison and overcome it, becoming much stronger.
I apologize for my lack of activity in this month and a half, University has been keeping me distracted, along with a touristic trip to São Paulo. I shall soon go back to work in the Belarus Crisis, the moment that the PNOR will become the standard bearer for Russian Nationalism.I really hope this thread doesn't die out. A really promising story so far!
Awesome. I never lost faith in you, to be honest I was trying to keep the thread marked active. This is currently my favorite story, I know it'll turn out great!I apologize for my lack of activity in this month and a half, University has been keeping me distracted, along with a touristic trip to São Paulo.
