Uffaa, finally read through all of this. A great TL.
It's lovely to see how Western democracies destroy the superauthoritarian kosgaardist regimes D
Little nitpicking: The liberated areas should be labelled "Befreites Brandenburg", not "befreiten" (wrong grammatical case). Apart of that, cool timeline. With just a little more border tweaking you'll get the Oder-Neisse line.

Gender, not case, no? Ich glaube dass "Gender" meint »Genus« oder »Geschlecht«, und "case", »Fall«.Little nitpicking: The liberated areas should be labelled "Befreites Brandenburg", not "befreiten" (wrong grammatical case).

I just think he got the English grammatical terminology a bit wrong, IF I understood the reason for the change - I THINK the change is gender, not case, but that doesn't matter for your story - you've got the right form now.

Thanks for the map. Helped clarify a lot of things. Didn't realise how small Brazil was in TTL, at least compared to ours. Although think it has the main centres of population and wealth, at least before the war.
A Prussia without Brandenburg is going to be interesting. Especially since the Prussia/Poland state is now overhwelmingly Polish which could make for interesting political and linguistic questions.
Sounds like the wheels are coming off the kosgaardist regimes but I suspect there will be a lot more conflict before the dust settles. Given the number of states and the size of several of them there are likely to be some hold-outs, along with plenty of chaos where central power does go.

Why wouldn't the USC try to unify China?
I gather that they would certainly like to, but lack the manpower and industry to do it. Southern China contains substantially less than half the population of China as a whole, if I remember right, and also if I remember, it was messed up pretty bad by the revolution that formed the USC when the Qing collapsed. They were able to fend off the Chuen pretty well, but couldn't really follow up on that success.
