"There once was a time when the people of the World believed in the of the power of France to defeat German aggression. Our army's mutinied in the face of danger, in the last months. Paris was soon captured and we were forced to the peace tables. We lost much, much of our African territory now is held by the Germans. Radicals and revolutionary have declared France a Socialistic Republic, Communist's fight the government in the Street, our (scoffs) allies have abandoned us to this fate. Perhaps now in L'esprit De Vengeance it is time for a leader to restore France.
-Robert Nivelle Former French General and Anti-Communist

Feedback and Responses are appreciated Hopefully this isn't as ASB as my last TL (cancelled due to ASB may be revived in the future)

1920 to be exact.
More to be reveled in an update later today explaining how Germany won the war.etc
 
I've always thought that handing over French colonial territory to Germany was slightly implausible, especially in regards to North Africa. Algeria was basically considered part of metropolitan France, after all, which is a testament to how well integrated it was into the rest of the nation.

Even losing the Senegal would be out of the question. Germany could get Madagascar and an expanded Cameroon, perhaps even Central Africa around Lake Chad, but they're never going to reach Dakar. To get Paris to lose all of her colonial territories would require a total defeat of not only France, but also Britain, Russia, Italy, the US, and the overthrow of the entire pre-war international order.

Why in the world does the US want to annex the Baja Peninsula and northern Mexico? In the aftermath of the Mexican Revolution, those regions were rife with civil unrest and outright violence, none of which would be conducive towards an American occupation.

And Vancouver Island?

I agree, U.S. and British pressure would ensure that French were not going to be forced into forfeiting their colonial crown jewels. Even still, other areas that could be forfeited include France's Pacific island holdings and maybe Cambodia.

Any feedback, and comments are appreciated.

"Francis you've got this map completely wrong. You believe me, the Soviets have at least reached Siberia, I even hear'd the czar has went into exile in Korea, and left the War to a more able leader. And what in the Lord's name is the Republic of Indo-China, you've done this before. Let me repeat myself one last time French Indo-China is German now, it is not French, or part of a Siamese republic." " Well then I quit your stupid map making business. You have no belief in France, you believe me France will rise from the ashes of defeat.” “Francis you just got out of one war, there's no reason to fight another against your own brothers in France. Things will get better we will get our revenge someday.” “I will ensure that day happens sooner, goodbye.”


"Workers your day's of oppression at the hands of the working class is now over. Rise up against those who believe they are your masters. Raise up the Red Banner. The bankers and barons men keep you in the chains of slavery and for what revenge against Germany, For however long can they hold this Teuton terror over us to perpetuate their own power. Now is the time for the workers of France to take the reigns of power into their own hands.

"What are we to do now Minister. We are under assault by the left, and the right. Are government, and Us are near destruction" "Well if you'd follow me i believe you will find why our government has no need to worry any longer."

On April 2nd 1920 the powder keg that was France at the time exploded. Members of the Peasant's and Worker's army took control of Paris in a violent coup de ta. One day later General Robert Nivelle Free forces, and regular Army forces put down the so called spring uprising with brutal efficiency. Who ever was captured was executed, and anyone who survived went into exile abroad. It is commonly said that Nivelle failed in every task except when France needed him the most. After this the French Commander in North Africa who had seized control during the uprising was killed in a battle outside of Tunis (Now renamed New Carthage) when a joint Calvary-Tank charge broke through the lines of his army.

"Workers of France come rise up. We in Paris may die but the old regime must also die with us." Suddenly a Soldier kicks down the door "You are all under arrest for high treason against the Government of France." "No Jacques there arn't under arrest." "What are you talking about Francis, of course there are under arrest." "No they are not under arrest because we will kill them now."

"Hurri we hav ban ordeaded to charge." Says Pierre in his heavy country accent. "Are they mad we will be eaten alive by the machine guns." "Exactly gentlemen that's why we are using tanks." At 17 miles per hour the French Tanks charged across the Plains of Carthage (Tunis) After the defensive layers containing machine gunners were overcame, A wave of French Infantry flooded the trenches. And it is here that we rejoin are dear friend Francis. "Arrrrrgahhhhh." "The man to the right of me is gutted by a bayonet, as the traitor struggles to free his gun from my the bodie of my brother in arms, I deliver a bullet into his skull, as i remember it passed through and hit the shovel behind him. A man with a grenade and a trench knife charges toward me. My gun sees he doesn't make it far. We had reached the fourth and last defensive line, when one of our tanks pulls up beside me and unleashed a hellish barrage of Machine Gun fire killing a man holding a pistol, and trying to rally the soldiers. When it hits him he drops his pistol, and slowly slinks to the ground. Nearly Instantly a group of soldiers throws their hands up into surrender, we execute them as traitors with immediateness, Lord knows we need less of those." "On other fronts I hear they also seldom take prisoners."
 
The US decided to set off long-term problems with Canada and the UK by seizing Canadian territory while Mexico decided on national and territorial disaster?

No as stated by Francis's former employer in the above chapter he messed the map up due to his Nationalistic feelings ( I can't make a good map worth a crap;))

Chapter 2 The Bonaparte-Strauss Coup

In the next few years the Government Teetered along hoping against a right wing coup, against which it had no defense as the workers nor the army would back it. France could count on no foreign support as Britain was busy fighting against the Indians. On September 6 1922 the heir of the Bonaparte dynasty (Napoleon 4 ITTL didn't die in Africa due to listening to the advice of Arthur Brigge) Napoleon V(1) and his military supporters overthrew the Intern Government of France(2) and proclaimed the Third Empire of France. Once might ask why the Kaiser didn't overthrow this new regime as soon as possible, the reason for this as it appears to the writer of this history, maybe the ongoing war with Britain(3), and the Proletarian Union of Socialist Republics (PUSR). So in this way so did the French Third Empire begin

1 An Ardent anti communist, and War Hero who fought in the April Rising against the Peasant's and Worker's army

2 No elections have been held yet ( There likely never would have been any)

3 This involved actions in the Mid East, Egypt, and the support of the 1920 Irish Rebellion (failed). Peace came in December 1922 In a return peace with the Empire remaining the same, and all Ottoman Territory being returned.[/SIZE][/SIZE]
