Konstantinos XII (August 2, 1868 to January 27, 1951) was King of the Hellenes (Emperor of the Hellenes after 1945) from the assassination of his father, Georgios I on March 18, 1913 until his death on January 27, 1951 , when he was succeeded by his son Georgios II. His 38-year reign saw the expansion of Greek territory, the realization of the Megali Idea and the capture of Constantinople after 490 years of Ottoman rule.
After his accession as Emperor of the Hellenes in 1945, his regnal name was retroactively changed to Konstantinos XII in order to emphasize continuity between the Byzantine and Hellenic empires.

Since rise of communism is pretty unlikely socialism might be seen pretty prominent. Even USA might be bit left-winger ITTL.

Yeah, but they probably still be Pushback by Conservative in America and Europe

So what happens to Lenin and Stalin? I think there would still be a Russian Revolution with the Romanovs and Rasputin still around.

Considering Lenin was sent back to Russia by Kaiser Wilhelm due to WW1, I don't see him being involved. That being said, I could definitely see a Russian Revolution (socialist or not) still occurring, as there were a lot of underlying issues that led to the revolution. Granted, it would probably happen slightly later due to there being no war, but a revolution in the 1920s or 1930s is definitely feasible. The issue with the Revolution though is that almost all of Europe (other than maybe France) would oppose the revolutionaries and help support the Empire, especially if the revolution is still communist in nature.

How'd this happen?

How did Italy get Corsica?

 

[MarquessAngewoah]

They might have bought it; Italian Irredentism might have worked and Francia might allow them to seceded, France might politically dissolve and it could b Annexed by Italy. Maybe any of these??

No that's likely will never happen.
France in this timeline is very Nationalistic as do Most of Europe.
Why would the French will give the most strategic and considered part of France to Italy?
Even in Instable state in the French, wouldn't Just stay put while a Foreign Country invade it Land.

The only thing that would have Corscia in to Italian sphere of Influence is with War

France never would sell any part of Metropolitan Frane. Never.

France wouldn't too allow Corsica secede. In OTL France was ready to fight over Indochina and Algeria several years despite that it just barely survived from WW2. ITTL it would be much stronger.

Dissoluiton of Frawnce/France falloing to civil war seems pretty unlikely, at least in such level that Italy would be able to take Corsica.

I doubt that Italy could ever defeat France on war. And it probably woudl bring Great War which would be totally out of cards on scenario where the Great War is not ever fought.

I wonder how the world economy would work in this TL
Do we still keep the gold standard?
What about the internet?
Do we have things like .com for commenwealth and .EU for mainland europe?

So I've been thinking a lot about zeppelins lately, and I wondered, If zeppelins are basically flying ships, then would we have air pirates traveling through the skies with planes and robbing zeppelins.
Is this a very fanciful thought or is it plausible?

Bit late, but I'll point out that the 'raiders' here are doing it wrong "In game" you go for the engines not the lift cells as it makes the Zeppelin un-maneuverable and vulnerable to boarding.

In context though you 'could' down a Zeppelin but that means you need a team on the ground that can reach the wreck AND a means to get the cargo/goods/hostages out which takes a lot of effort.

One other thing I'm wondering, how do you evacuate a large crew from a zeppelin? if the zeppelin you are on starts to catch fire or crash, how can you safely evacuate a large number of people? by parachute?
Parachutes might work if you're flying over a plain, but what if it happens over the high seas, a mountain range or a big city?

You don't unfortunately, just like in passenger planes you can't reliably count on everyone even knowing how to fit a parachute let alone operate on. And every pound counts towards your available 'payload' so "escape pods" and the like are probably out. You might have inflatable 'raft' like pods that have attached parachutes but the whole stability and weight-and-balance means the chances are very high that you're seriously injured or killed ANYWAY when bailing out in them.

IMO 2nd American Civil War over civil rights issues seems bit unlikely. More plausible would be economically and societally worse 1930's.

How would the direction of road traffic circulation work in this world? even though most countries in the world already adopt the right side as the dominant road traffic side, some countries such as Austria, Spain, Portugal and Sweden still traveled on the left side, while in Italy and Holland the traffic side depended on which region you were in, which led to very strange situations where you had to switch sides of the street while driving constantly.

Are the Ultramarine Provinces as important as the Portuguese homeland? For that matter we need a discussion on how Portugal is able to keep Germany and Britain away from the colonies, and not going into debt
