We discuss the Great War a fair amount, but it seems to me that most of the discussion focuses on Central Powers victories - either in 1918 after the long slog that was OTL, or in 1914 right at the start. One thing I haven't seen much is an Entente victory in 1914 or 1915. So, two questions:
1) How could this come about? No PODs before 1914 - i.e. you can have a country stay neutral or join the other side, but you can't say 'the Entente would be in a better position if the war was delayed to 1920' or whatever
2) What might the aftermath be like? One would assume it would be much less punishing than Versailles, and presumably a lot of countries that in OTL were overthrown in revolutions wouldn't be.
Ideas?
