But, to channel Meatloaf further ..."I won't do THAT". That being a Totalist country. Sorry - too close to Spectre of Europe and too often covered in AARs etc. Obviously I will do Syndicalism/Socialism etc.

I wish I could double like for this statement alone.

So an area of Kaiserreich that I think isn't explored is the potential for something of a "fourth block", separate from the Entente, Synditern and ME. There are a LOT of Catholic countries that are predisposed towards national populism with " political catholic" politicians leading the way, and a pope that actively governs a country. Something like "the papal league" developing as the rest of the world descends into the 2nd Weltkrieg could be really interesting, and very different from any ideological bloc in our own TL. That and Distributism as a major economic system would be super interesting.

Mittelafrika. It has the potential to become a world superpower, after all.

The potential is possibly large and present. But it seems unlikely. Mittelafrika would need a long time to be consolidated as a cultural bloc.

How do you (or anyone else) imagine that Mittelafrika could become a superpower? Would it be as a independant country or in union with Germany?

Seeing as this seems to have turned into a two horse race between Mittelafrika and Mongolia I've turned this thread into a poll with those two.

This will close in 24 hours and we'll have a final decision.

Thanks all who have suggested ideas so far - if this proves fun to write and for you all to read I may well do some more countries as a follow-up.

Independent or Australia-like related to Germany. I simply think that with the right leader, Mittelafrika can try to integrate native African people in administrative positions and opening schools for everyone. And German can become the lingua franca of Mittelafrika, unifying all those different cultures. And then, superpower status is only a question of time, watching to demographics and natural resources.

the Plans were more complex
-Completions of Federation of Belgium in 1918 (the Germans occupants were to be fed up with Walloon and Flemish disputes, they separate the two)
-Everything east of river Meuse become part of Prussia State dividing several cities into Walloon and German parts
-Colony of Belgium Congo becomes core of German Mittleafrika Colony
-The Belgium Harbors under use of German Imperial and merchant navy special Antwerpen
-Installation or take over from Fortress by German Imperial Army on Belgium soil

Very likely to happen
-King Albert I resign as King of Belgians in favor of his son Leopold III
-installment of german Regent over Belgium until Leopold III is 21 years old and ready to marry a German noble woman.
-Westward move of Belgium by attach part of France, special the French Flanders and area around Calais under German control and Belgium Administration.

I must say, New Zealand joining the Commonwealth of Australia with little debate is ASB. There were very real concerns for the welfare of Māori, and their place within constitutional law. That, and the fact New Zealand could easily transition in terms of trade and economics without having to give up our independence.

I speculate William Massey would determine to retain our independence, whilst forging incredibly close relations with Australia and Canada. The fears of organized Labour and the "red feds" - Federation of Labour, will be exacerbated. We'll probably end up having a continued war-time coalition between the Liberal and Reform Party into the depression, along with the War Regulations Continuance Act remaining enforced.

You said the “red feds”? If Australasia goes syndicalist, New Zealand revolts.

And who said that there was no debate on the union? If your motherland country has just been defeated horribly and then is taken over completely by an ideology you detest, then you will probably go into panic mode and centralize rule. Australia and New Zealand have a shaky enough union in kaiserreich, and ally the factors for that are there. No language barrier or anything of the sort.
