I know this an odd question but hear me out.
In my Election Game in Shared Worlds, the voters set off a chain of events that caused the German Armies to retreat from France in early March of 1871 due to troubles at home.
Which as far as I can tell means the French have lost the war but can't be forced to cede Alsace Lorraine or pay a huge indemnity.
But given the timeframe that these events happened in the Paris Commune breaking out hasn't been butterflied away.
How would scenario that effect how the Paris Commune plays out?
Would it fizzle out completely?
Would it be less intense because of the different situation that the interactions between the national government and communards are playing out in?
How would it affect Marx and Socialist and communist thought.
P.S Henri, Count of Chambord is has died in 1871. Would that cause the legitimists to back Prince Phillip, Count of Paris?
