Current Date: 1949
POD: 1914
Backstory: The Great Depression is especially felt in the western world following a brief Russo-Anglo/American War over Iran (too close to India for Britain). War weariness forces the Allies to declare war on Germany during different times (USSR first, then France, then Britain, then finally the US), and allows Germany to expand without having to watch its back (to some extent, but not fully). The war ends by 1949 (officially) with an overwhelming Axis victory. However, the Axis splits between German and Japanese spheres of influence afterwards, and a Cold War fell across the world due to (primarily) racial differences. A war between Turkey and Iran threatens to bring their respective alliances, as well as Germany, into another war.
Members of Neuordnung:
Germany: The World-Capital Germania is within a decade of completion thanks to Russian slaves, and is already the world’s largest city. Developed nuclear weapons in time to flatten New York City. Hitler’s death was ‘coincidentally’ announced the same day as the absolute surrendering of the Americans.
Italy: Mussolini has established a New Roman Empire, a sidekick to Hitler’s Reich.
Finland: Joined the Axis as OTL.
Bulgaria: Gained fewer territories than they hoped for, but are happy for surviving.
Hungary: The government is under close watch by the Nazis.
Romania: One of the closest friends to Germany.
Canada: Avoided puppetization, but after the German conquest an apartheid regime is established.
America: Nazi gauleiters run the government and the persecution of minorities have begun. Resistance is, very much, futile.
England: Berlin has closely watched the Aryanization via sterilization process that is slowly turning the British Isles German.
Argentina: Despite multiple close calls, war has failed to break out between the other nations that dominate South America: Brazil.
South Africa: The collapse of the British Empire led to the establishment of a pro-German apartheid regime that quickly conquered vulnerable territories. Liberia has recently been added.
Members of the Madrid-Ankara Pact:
Spain: After joining the Axis, Franco declared war on Portugal and seized Portuguese colonial territories.
Turkey: Joined the Axis against the USSR. Arguments over Caucasian territories estranged them from the Germans. A recent war between Turkey and Iran threatens to cause nuclear warfare between Germany and Japan.
Members of GEAPS:
Japan: Japan easily won against weak enemies. However, the conquest of America (despite being much quicker than expected), bled the Japanese economy and kept them safely insuperior to German military and industrial strength. The Japanese government has begun to process of 'colonization' by forcefully emigrating millions of peasants into occupied territories. They have just recently developed nuclear weaponry.
Siam: French Indo-China was ill-prepared for war, as the British in eastern India.
Afghanistan: Britain wasn’t very prepared for a war.
Iran: Escaped communization thanks to the intervention of the United States and Britain, and was thus reluctant to join Japan in a war against them. Did so anyways.
Brazil: Blatantly, warfare has brought Brazil into a position of glory never before seen to the Brazilian people.
Mexico: Conquest of Central America angered Japan, but an alliance between the two was formed anyways.
