Poland's main battle tank in the early years of the war was the 7TP Light Tank, which was armed with a 37mm cannon and a 7,92mm machine-gun in a turret.

Though very few in numbers at the opening weeks of the war, the PZL P. 50 Jastrzab was a formidable fighter in the arsenal of the Polish Air Force, even though it was inferior to the German Luftwaffe's Messerschmitt Bf-109.

Though the Karabinek wz. 1929 carbine was the workhorse of the Polish Army, the Karabinek wz. 1938 semi-automatic rifle was an edge over the bolt action Mauser, but it was only used by the shock troops of the Guard of Perun Division.

Whilst the Germans were able to push back the pagan Polish invaders, Poland’s ally of the Kievan Rus had no such problem when it invaded its southern neighbor of Wallachia in the Spring of 1940. In fact it took the Rus only a single season before all of Wallachia fell to the invaders.

Vlad XIX of House Drăculești, voivode (duke/prince) of the restored Principality of Wallachia (a Kievan Rus puppet state) – he and his family had just returned from their 40 years in exile. The exile resulted from after their rivals in the House of Dănești ousted them in a coup in 1900, which ended 300 years of continuous Drăculești rule (2), the Dănești were themselves deposed in a Crusadist coup by Marshal Ion Antonescu in 1925.
​

The opportunity to return to power in Wallachia presented itself when the Kievan Rus offered him and his family a return to power as puppets of Kiev, which Vlad and most of House Drăculești agreed to. And thus the Principality of Wallachia was reborn after 15 years of Crusadist rule. After being installed by the Kievan Rus, Vlad XIX would stand by and do nothing as the Kievan Rus massacred Christians and brought in Pagan settlers to re-Paganise the nation.

Dan VI of House Dănești, the last of the Wallachian voivodes before the restoration of the Drăculești in mid-1940. The Wallachian crusadist party, the New Order of the Dragon Party, led by Ion Antonescu and Corneliu Zelea Codreanu led a coup d'état against the voivode and House Dănești (followed by subsequently executing them all) on August 1, 1925 thus bringing an end to the Principality of Wallachia for the next 15 years (until the Kievan Rus invasion of 1940).

Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, co-founder and party leader of the New Order of the Dragon Party. He’d be executed by a Kievan Rus Army officer on July 12, 1940.

Spoiler: Execution

Codreanu is about to be executed by Russlander Army officer as other Russlanders watch, below him is a mass grave of Crusadist party members, supporters, and just ordinary Christian Wallachians. This would the start of the so-called “Wallachian Genocide”.

===============================

(1) – Crusadism is a bizarre mix of fundamentalist Christianity and fascism with an explicit hatred of Jews, Muslims, and especially Pagans.

(2) – Before Mihai Viteazul of House Drăculești (also known as “Michael the Unifier”) took the throne of Wallachia in 1600, the principality came under Drăculești and Dănești rule multiple times and was host to various conflicts between the two noble houses.

While Fighting between the Slavic Pagan Nations of the Kievan Rus and Poland and the Crusader States of Germany and Romania were happening, in Western Europe, another front of the conflict was about to open up. The Communard State of France was eying up Germany's neighbor of the Kingdom of Belgium. On March 16th, 1939, France invades Belgium and quickly overruns the country. Italy (aka the Roman State), Germany, and Spain responded by declaring war on France.

In the field of battle, the French Military proved to be ineffective, in which prewar Preparations were too focused on Politicizing and Communizing the Military. The French forces under Field Marshall Maurice Gamelin proved ineffective as it was tailored for trench warfare, thus it was easily crushed by the German-Italian-Spanish onslaught despite the German forces alone being heavily outnumbered by the French Army. By April 30th, the Crusader Forces occupied Delescluzepolis (formerly Paris) and the Communard leader, Édouard Daladier committed suicide in his bunker.

After the Fall of France, the new Fascist Regime under Petain would launch a policy of De-Communization all across France, starting with the purging of the Communards within the Government and renaming Delescluzepolis to it's former name of Paris. The new Regime would also send troops to fight against the Poles alongside with the German Army.​

Battleship Novhorod underway in the Baltic following her modernization, circa 1935.

At the Start of the the Third Great European War, the Kievan Rus had 2 battleships* (Kyyiv and Minsʹk), 7 Cruisers (Heavy Cruisers being Koroleva Mila II, Knyaz Oleh, and Svyatoslava Khorobroho and Light Cruisers being Ruslan Velykyy, Volodymyr Velykyy, Olʹha Velyka, and Heneral Petlyura), 24+ destroyers, 10 Torpedo boats, and 19 submarines for it's Black Sea Fleet. For it's Baltic Fleet (which was made up of more obsolescent ships), the Rus had the aging Battleship Novhorod for it's flagship, 6 cruiser (heavy cruisers Knayz' Ryuryk and Prynts Kyy and light cruisers Yaroslav XIII, Mstyslav Velykyy, Ryuryk V, and Wolodymyr II), 21+ destroyers, 13 torpedo boats, and 7 submarines.

The ORP Warszawa was Poland's only Dreadnought, in which it was also built in Britain

ORP Grom of the Grom class Destroyer, which was constructed in Ryga, Poland.

The Polish Navy consisted of it's flagship, the Battleship ORP Warszawa, cruisers Pilsudski, Dabrowski, and Sikorski, 10 destroyers from the Grom class along with 6 submarines.

The order of Battle for the German Kriegsmarine were 6 Battleships (Bismarck, Tirpitz, Bayern, Adolf Hitler, Baden, and Friedrich der Grosse), 5 Battlecruisers (Roon, Yorck, Scharnhorst, Gniesenau, Derfflinger, and Lutzow), 8 heavy cruisers (Hindenburg, Ludendorf, Admiral Scheer, Graf Spee, Admiral Hipper, Blucher, Seydlitz, Prinz Eugen), 9 light cruisers (Konigsberg, Koln, Emden, Hamburg, Munich, Berlin, Breslau, Leipzig, and Nurnberg), 36+ destroyers, 19+ torpedo boats, and 48 submarines or U-Boats. The Kriegsmarine was however tailored more to battle Britain's Royal Navy and to be raiders on the high seas rather than battle the navies of Russland and Poland.

When war broke out in 1938, the Battle of the Baltic instantly commenced with the Polish destroyers Huragan and Grom attacking the German cruisers Emden and Hamburg, in which the Poles severely damaged the Hamburg which the Germans were forced to scuttle her. The second major naval engagement came on October 4th, 1938, which the cruisers Dabrowski and Sikorski met the German battlecruiser DKM Yorck off Konigsberg, though neither side sank each other's ships, the Yorck and Sikorski however both took severe damage. Throughout the duration of the Siege of Konigsberg which lasted from September of 1938 to November of 1939, the Polish and Russland navies both attacked German supply convoys to try to cut the city off, the Kriegsmarine met them there to fight them off. The most serious battle came on the night of February 16-17, 1939, the Battleship Novgorod and the cruisers Dabrowski, Sikorski, Knayz' Ryuryk, Mstyslav Velykyy, and Yaroslav XIII with 7 destroyers battled with a Kriegsmarine squadron consisting of the Tirpitz, Baden, Lutzow, Hindenburg, Berlin and Koln with their escort of 4 destroyers and 5 torpedo boats. The resulting battle saw the sinking of the Novgorod**, Lutzow, Mstyslav Velykyy, Hindenberg, Yaroslav XIII, 2 Russland Destroyers, and 3 German Destroyers.

In the Black Sea, the Russlander Navy battled with the meagre Wallachian Navy, which at the start of Hostilities consisted of 5 destroyers, 4 torpedo boats, and 4 submarines. In one battle however, the Wallachians sank the Russlander cruiser Ruslan Velykyy and 2 Russlander destroyers in a naval action near Constanta.

As the Russlanders closed in on Constanta, the Wallachian Admiral ordered all of their ships to be scuttled to prevent capture. So the crews of the respective ships detonated the munitions aboard their ships, thus they ended up on the bottom of Constanta harbor. The salvage of the wreckage of the ships did not began until 1947, which by then the war already ended.

The national flag of the Republic of Czechoslovakia

Throughout the interwar years, Czechoslovakia neither sided with either the League of Rome (Italy, Germany, Spain, Croatia, and Wallachia) or the Slavonic Alliance (Rus and Poland.) However, Czechoslovakia has almost a similar percentage of it's population being either Christian (47.5%) or Pagan (48%), and so, it created an internal conflict within Czechoslovakia. To make matters worse, there was also a rising Communard Faction in the country combined with an already established Fascist movement called the National Fascist Council, in which the Communards and the Fascists hated each other. The fighting between the Christians, Pagans, and Communards not only happened on the streets, but it reached all the up in the Parliament where MPs from their respective groups would brawl with their rivals.

A Communard Rally is Bratislava, circa 1935.

As early as 1936, it was becoming evident that there was a going to be a Czechoslovak Civil War as all three of the factions hated each other. But to Edvard Benes and his Government, they believed that the Civil War could be averted. One step was the banning of the Czechoslovak Communard, Slavonic People's*, Fascist National Council, and the Christian Socialist Parties, but this would not alleviate the problem, and according to one historian, it would make the situation worse.

A member of the Czechoslovak Communard Party apprehended by the Czechoslovak Police following their raid on the Communard Party headquarters.

The second domino fell on the day of October 5th, 1937 in Prague at Wenceslas Square, where a large demonstration by Czech Pagans got assaulted by Communard counter-demonstrators. A large riot ensued in which the Mayor called in soldiers of the Czechoslovakian Army when it became apparent that the Police were unable to quell the riots, the soldiers were ordered to break up the riots and to arrest the leaders. However, one of the rioters threw a brick at one of the soldiers and wounded him. Another soldier fired his rifle at that rioter, and then caused a shootout by the soldiers. By the time that the last of the rioters were arrested, 37 rioters were killed and another 55 rioters and 7 bystanders were wounded. The event would be later known as either as the October 5th Massacre or simply as Black Tuesday.

When the war between Poland and Germany commenced, the Benes Government declared neutrality, by then, the animosity between the Pagans, Christians, and Communards had grown so great, that so much so that the three factions were ready to kill each other. But the question was, when was the bloodshed going to start?

(Above) The campaign poster of Joshua Davis the Third, the Great Grandson of the Confederacies first president.

Davis, despite his historic lineage would face heavy competition from Alvin Long, son of Huey Long, who like his father, was a charismatic southern gentleman, gaining the support of not only the women (who had just earned the right to vote ten years prior) and the younger generation, but even the traditionalist.

(Above) Alvin Longs campaign poster, which borrowed from his fathers campaign slogan.

The election would go down in history for many a reason, including Davis' brutal tactics, including adding fuel to rumours against his rivals, including that one of his competitors secretly had "Black Blood". These allegations would result in that rival dropping out, not long before killing himself.

Another note worthy event was The Duel.

(Above) Jefferson Beauregard Sessions the Third of Alabama during a heated debate, seconds before challenging Davis to a duel.

Davis (Being a former general in the army) would accept this duel. And would survive it. He managed to not get charged, due to eye witnesses claiming that Jefferson fired first, thus making Davis' violent reply that of self defence. Another winning blow would come when Alvin Long decided to drop out of the presidential race, instead choosing the position of Vice President. The two would go on to win the election.

Czechoslovak Civil War: Order of Battle

Map of Czechoslovakia at the onset of the Civil War, Blue Areas represent under Christian Control, Purple for the Pagans, Red for the Communards, and the Black Zone were forces still loyal to Edvard Benes and his Government.

On March 2nd, 1939 at 1:41 PM local time in Prague, Emil Hacha, the leader of the banned Christian Socialist Party, was killed when a bomb was detonated in his car near Prague Castle following an emergency meeting between himself, Benes, and Vaclav Marek (who was the leader of the Slavonic Faction). Though it is still unclear who assassinated Hacha, but the Christians quickly blamed the Pagans, and thus within hours, Religious Riots broke out in many of Czechoslovakia's Major Cities. This would very escalate into gun battles between the Christian and Pagans, the Communards would see this as a chance and began a revolution, but this would be limited to a few areas in Czechoslovakia, mainly within the vicinity of Bratislava, where the Bratislava Commune was proclaimed. In Prague, the elements of the Czechoslovakian Military that was still loyal to Edvard Benes, had locked the city down and placed it under Martial Law.

Christian Forces

The Christian Czechoslovak Forces or the Christian State of Czechoslovakia was proclaimed in the city of Pilsen under Father Jozef Tiso, who proclaimed a Holy War against the Pagans. 42% of the Pre War Czechoslovakian Army aligned themselves with the Tiso Government, in which other formations, like the Germans of the Teutonic Legion and the Crusaders from the Division of the Followers of Jesus Christ (aka the Crusader Division). The Christians would also have a large chunk of the Czechoslovak Army Air Force and a sizable number of tanks and armored vehicles.

Pagan Forces

The Pagan Czechoslovak Forces aka the the Slavonic Czechoslovak Republic was proclaimed in Brno under the leadership of Marek. But the actual military units would be commanded by Karel Klapalek. 44% of the Pre-War Army would align themselves with the Pagans, there were other units like the Soldiers of Svarog, which were paramilitary units. Like their Christian Counterparts, the Pagans would receive large portions of the Czech Army's aircraft and tanks, it would receive much much of the Czechoslovak Naval Forces.

Communard Forces

Under the leadership of Rudolf Slansky, the People's Republic of Czechoslovakia or the Bratislava Commune was proclaimed in the Czechoslovak City of Bratislava. Only 1% of the Czech Army would align themselves with the Communards, thus their forces would heavily depend on the paramilitary Red Guard forces and they would also have many foreigners fighting for them (mainly being Italians, Serbians, French, and Turks.) The Communards would also have armored forces which were entirely made up of improvised armored cars, and their tiny air force would be made up of 12 Avia B-534 Biplane Fighters and numerous trainer biplanes converted into tactical bombers.

The Weapons

The main firearms for the Czechoslovak Civil War were of Czechoslovakian Origin such as the Vz. 24 Bolt Action rifle and the ZB vz. 26 Light Machine Gun. Interestingly, the Pagans would continue to make the vz. 24 and vz. 26 at the arsenal at Brno for their forces.

Terror in Transcaucasia: The Jughashvili Regime and the Rus Invasion of Georgia​

Coming off of their successful invasion and occupation of Wallachia, and without interference from the rest of the world, generals of the Kievan Rus Army like Oleksandr Ivanovych Udovychenko and Vsevolod Petriy turned their attention to a nation that had been a troublemaker since 1926, the Crusader State of Georgia.

Chairman Noe Ramishvili of the Kingdom of Georgia (circa 1925 just after his election to the position).
​

The Kingdom of Georgia had always been an autocracy since its transition away from feudalism in 1706, but in 1886 (with industrialisation under way) a wave of liberalist protests shook the ancient state that had existed since 1008 A.D. This prompted the king at the time to draft a constitution and allow for the formation of a royal assembly (as well as political parties). It’s twelfth chairman was Noe Besarionis dze Ramishvili of the Christian Social Liberal Front, an Christian left-leaning party, and economic times were good for Georgia since it remained neutral in the Second Greater European War and traded with both warring factions (the mainly the Christian West and the Pagan East). But these good times ended when the stock markets in Peking crashed in 1928, plunging the world in an steep economic depression (which was still recovering from the Second Greater European War).

Georgia was one of the most badly effected, due in large part to the horrible decisions made by the Ramishvili Government. With the government unable to alleviate or solve the crisis, the Georgian population at large turned to those who seemed to offer a solution such as the communards and crusadists.

A painting of Ioseb Besarionis dze Jughashvili in 1935.​

The Order of Gobron was a crusadist party founded by a former priest-turned-crusadist named Ioseb Besarionis dze Jughashvili. With the communard revolution in the Ottoman Empire in 1923 that led to the establishment of the Ottoman People’s Democratic Republic (commonly called the Ottoman Republic) and Istanbul allying itself with the godless Frenchmen, as well as the fear of a Ottoman invasion of Georgia, most Georgians turned to Jughashvili.

Georgia’s King Petre Aleksandres dze Bagrationi Gruzinsky (circa 1920).​

In 1925 Georgia’s king, Petre Aleksandres dze Bagrationi Gruzinsky of the Bagrationi dynasty, knowing the mood of the People dismissed Ramishvili’s government and asked Jughashvili to create a new government. This would prove to be a mistake as Jughashvili quickly moved to solidify his power and severally weaken the monarchy, additionally he tricked the Georgian Royal Assembly to grant him broad sweeping executive powers to deal with the communards – which Ioseb used to not only ban them but also ban all other political parties until only the Order of Gobron was left. The new dictator then seized control of all newspapers and nationalised the economy as well clamping down on any dissent with the Georgian Royal Police and his own paramilitary group called the “League of Saint Nino”. With full control, Jughashvili was able to get King Petre to change the nation’s name to the “Crusader State of Georgia”.

Ioseb also started to round up, imprison, or massacre Georgia’s large pagan minority, though not its Jewish or Muslim minorities as Ioseb and his Order of Gobron viewed the Jews and Muslims of the nation as fellow Semitics gallantly resisting the pagan and communard menace – the Muslims actually actively cooperated with the government in their anti-Pagan endeavour. Jughashvili’s pro-Semitic policy was in stark contrast to other crusadist parties that hated the Jews and Muslims as much as they hated the Pagans. Later in late 1930s, Jughashvili would order the deportations of Georgia's remaining Pagans to the Kievan Rus. However, the Jews of Georgia generally didn’t like the terror that Jughashvili and his cohorts were raining down upon their Pagan neighbors and so Jews across Georgia took up the task of hiding Pagans and helping them in any way they could. Leading up to 1940, with tensions between the Christian states and Pagans states rising, Georgia declared a policy of neutrality, all the while the targeting of Georgia’s pagans increased under Jughashvili. The Kievan Rus didn’t like this one bit and plans were being drawn up for an invasion of Georgia.

The invasion (led by Generals Oleksandr Ivanovych Udovychenko and Vsevolod Petriv) would begin on the morning of December 24, 1940, the Georgian border defences were completely caught off guard and quickly encircled and destroyed. The Russlander Army would make a mad dash for the Georgian capital of Tbilisi, sweeping away the small and ill-equipped/ill-trained Georgian Crusaders Army. By January 6, Tbilisi was captured and Jughashvili (along with other members of the government) fled to the Roman State. The Georgian Royal Family would however not be so lucky as the Russlanders captured them in their attempt to flee the city and executed them on the outskirts of Tbilisi.

The Kievan Rus then officially annexed the Georgian nation, ending 932 years of an independent Georgia. Almost immediately Russlander reprisals for Crusadist treatment of Pagans started with the Kievan Rus royal secret police, the Chernobog Guards (with help from Russlander soldiers), rounding up Tbilisi’s Christian majority and killing them en masse in freshly dug mass graves. Georgian Muslims, viewed as supporters and associates of the Jughashvili regime, were also marked for execution.

Chernobog Guards execute Christians in the Mtirala Forest, circa 1941 (top). In a field on the outskirts of Tbilisi, a Russlander soldier shoots a Christian woman and her child after the rest of her family are killed (circa 1942, bottom).

The only ones who weren’t executed were the Jews due to the Russlanders quickly finding out how the Jews of Georgia sheltered and protected the Pagans. The Russlanders’ ethnic cleansing of Christians and Muslims spread throughout occupied Georgia and lasted until Summer 1943, to this day the both the number of Pagans killed by the Jughashvili regime and the number of Christians/Muslims killed by the Russlanders are unknown as Russlander records haven’t been released to the public and the Jughashvili regime purged all records of their killings (though most estimates place the death tolls at 2 million and 7 million respectively). Kiev hasn’t apologised or compensated the descendants/communities of those Christians and Muslims killed as the Georgian government-in-exile refuses to even acknowledge the ethnic cleansing of Georgia’s Pagans during the Jughashvili regime.

* = The Famine was engineered due to concerns by the Cogunluk Regime under Inonu that there was going to be a rebellion in Egypt, and potentially lose Egypt if nothing was done about it. So Ottoman Secret Policemen seized all foodstuff from the farmers in Egypt and left them to starve to death.​
