In this TL von Richthofen survives the war and takes on the role of Herman Göring OTL. Richthofen is enraged by Germany's prostration after the war and falls in with the Nazis, which legitimizes them much as Göring's presence did. He becomes head of the Luftwaffe. After Hitler starts making his demands and risking a war that Germany cannot win in Richthofen's opinion, Richthofen puts a plan into effect to assassinate Hitler. After Hitler threatens Poland with war, Richthofen has the plane that Hitler was flying in crash and makes it look like an accident.
What does Richthofen do now? He is essentially the Heir to the Reich, but does he keep power himself or restore the monarchy? He is an aristocrat himself and a Prussian. Does this allow for a later Detente with the west and does the Soviet Union invade Finland?
