(I'm aware a similar thread exists, however this one I hope will go more indepth since the other one is essentially just a question without background to it)
I've recently joined a forum game wherein each person roleplays a country during the cold war, I've taken over East Germany
I've managed to negotiate (despite being occupied, we Germans are great diplomats apparently) a deal with the Soviet player along the lines of "If the allies do not carry through with the Morgenthau plan on their portion of Germany we'll take steps to ensure East Germany is a feasable challenge to the West"
This is the German division I've managed to negotiate, yellow goes to Poland, Green is Soviet, Red is East Germany and Purple is West.
If my plan works and I manage to get this going, could it be possible to make East Germany pull its own weight in the comintern? Could we keep people from trying to leave? Could we do anything to get West Germans to flee to us?
