I read about Bavarian nationalism, and that there were some proposals to secede and re-establish an independent Bavaria after the first world war. This certainly seems like a way Bavarians could possibly have avoided the harsh punishment the rest of Germany faced. It would certainly have changed the second world war and Germany by large.
However I'm not too familiar also.
I'm wondering should this state have formed after WW1, would it have been free from reparations? What other effects might it have had? Would it have prevented a certain Austria's rise to power? Certainly something this significant would radically change the second world war and the twentieth century at large.
Are there any timelines anyone is familiar with that feature an independent Bavaria?
