Federal Bureau of Investigation Tactical Team on a raid in rural Virginia, 1982. Under the National Restoration Council, the FBI were transformed from a federal law-enforcement agency into a secret police organisation, with the responsibility of dealing with 'sedition'. Between the 1960s and the 1980s, they would be on the frontlines of what became known as 'Civil War III and a half', as multiple anti-NRC, anti-federal, Syndicalist and pro-democracy organisations took up arms against the organs of the federal government. Many such groups would be funded by the Pacific States of America.

Lotus SuperCom Interactive Video (InterVid) console, c. 1990. Of all the various products of the post-Restoration 'British Economic Miracle' (cars, televisions, washing machines) none has quite the same popular culture appeal as Britain's dominance in InterVid systems, of which the SuperCom was one of the earlier trailblazers.

Prefectural Government Building in Toyohara, capital of Karafuto Prefecture. Having occupied the entirety of Karafuto Island following the First Weltkrieg, the island would quickly become majority Japanese and an integral part of the Home Islands. With the discovery of offshore oil deposits, internal migration to the island would only intensify. Today, the island is home to over half a million Japanese and produces over seventy per cent of the oil required for domestic consumption on the Home Islands.

What's life like for Jews?

Where do you mean? In NatPop Russia, I think it isn't that bad, since Savinkov and his gang aren't anti-Semitic (and this is a sufficient reason, alongside with his opposition to the old Tsarist regime and his own state, for likes of Krasnov to call Savinkov a Jew puppet). In Don-Kuban Union the fate of Jews is, I think, the same as in your average White warlord state. As much I can say, judging by Krasnov's personal anti-Semitism and the fact that the majority of the Whites who commited pogroms during the Civil War were Cossacks, it isn't nice.

German author Anne Frank in her youth, the first female Jew to win the Nobel Prize in literature. Her first, novel, the semi autobiographical Diary of a Young Girl, was about the experience of a German girl named Liesle in the Second Weltkrieg; she witnesses events from the Watch on the Rhine in 1940 to Paul Von Lettow-Vorbeck's decisive "we shall never surrender" speech on TV. The central plot, however, focuses on Liesl dealing with loss; Anne's older brother died in the Battle of Premzyl, winning the Iron across, and Liesl struggles with mixed emotions over the course of the novel from her family being rocketed to celebrity status by Zionist groups across the Empire due to the death of her brother. Frank was also a passionate advocate for the rights of Jews, helping to push through the 1965 Jewish Rights act in the Reichstag that forbade businesses to discriminate against Jews and cracked down on police brutality against them. She died at the age of 81 in 2010, surrounded by her loved ones.

A screenshot from the video game "Trotsky. The First Blood", developed by the Russian company "Fargus Enterntaiment". The game depicts, as developers say, "100% historical accurate" pre-revolutionary adventures of Leon Trotsky, when he allegedly fought with the Satan to depose him and established control over his demonic forces by himself, with the intent to use them for the future revolution.

Inspired by the Russian pirate localization of Blood (1997), where protagonist Caleb speaks with the voice of Lenin.

Artist's rendition of the new Imperial transcontinental train, touted by Canadian Pacific Railway as the modern upscale counterpart for its flagship Canadian. The Imperial retains many of the same hallmarks of the Canadian, including panoramic views available from glass-topped upper decks and dome cars, while uplifting many of the aspects of the older trains, such as living quarters, many of which are now apartments for the highest-paying passengers, as well as a general increase in the space onboard for both passengers and crew.

Officers of the Confederation of Indochina Navy and the Pacific States Marine Corps exchange a joke during a moment of leisure on a joint training exercise. The member-states of the Asia-Pacific Co-Prosperity Sphere regularly engage in joint exercises, exchange programmes and the like to increase their effectiveness operating together and to encourage the ongoing closeness between the various members of the alliance.

Bernard Sanders shortly after taking the office of President of the United States, c. 1990. Sanders, the first President to take power in the post-National Reconstruction Council US and a leading campaigner against the NRC (having been jailed for five years as a consequence), would quickly move to normalise relations with Canada and the Pacific States, recognising the PSA as an independent nation and recognising New England and Alaska as Canadian provinces. His two-term Presidency would also see the halving of the US' military budget, the end of the draft, the dissolution of the FBI and the formation of the Federal Police Bureau in its place, and a series of large-scale social programmes. Chief among these was the creation of the Federal Health Service in 1995, providing all Americans within the US with access to free healthcare.

Actress Audrey Hepburn in Japan, c. 1954. Hepburn, a citizen of the Pacific States by way of Canadian Exile, began her acting career in Hollywood but would quickly become popular in the Empire of Japan and would act in a large number of Japanese films, in particular Black Ships, Red Blood, an epic Kurosawa picture set during the Boshin War in which Hepburn portrays a Western woman who falls in love with a Japanese commander. Japanese audiences felt a particular regard for Hepburn as she was one of a very few Western actresses (or Western women in general) considered capable of behaving in line with the ideals of yamato nadeshiko.

As a longtime fan of blood, I Unironically want to play this.

Maybe there are possible spoilers for Hotline Miami 1 and 2.

Hotline Vladivostok (Горячая Линiя Владивостокъ) is a top-down shooter video game developed by the German Union game studios Andmuth.

The game is set in alternative 1989 Vladivostok, Transamur, after the Fengtian crisis in 1986, when the Japanese Empire lost their territory in Manchuria to the Entente-backed Republic of China, nullifying their influence in China. This, alongside with the following Russo-Japanese split and the past Syndicalist revolution in the American Union State in 1972, led by Martin Luther King jr., resulted in the abolishment of the anti-International pact, leaving Entente and International as the only competitors during the Kalterkrieg.

Tired of the Japanese presence on Transamur (which was ruled by the military administration since admiral Kolchak was overthrown in 1936 and replaced with Yui Mitsue) and the economical decline of the Empire and its subjects, general Kazakov, a retired general, forms a pro-Russian ultranationalist group "Legion of Alexander Nevsky", with the purpose of the overthrowing of the Japanese yoke and reunification with Russia. The main protagonist of the game, the Jacket, a former Imperial veteran who served under general Kazakov and was "called to arms" for the last time in his life, is tasked to murder various Japanese bureaucrats, political figures, businessmen and also influential "pro-Japanese traitors" of the Russian origin. The last target for the Jacket and the last boss of the game is the Governor-General of Transamur himself, Minami Haruo.

Maybe provide a summary on the different canons please.

Well, in my canon...

Japan is one of the major world powers, a founder-member and leader of the Asia-Pacific Co-Prosperity Sphere. Said Sphere includes Japan; the Pacific States of America; the Philippines; Indochina; Thailand; Burma; Malaysia; and Southern China.

The Pacific States are still a separate nation. The US tried to reconquer them in the 1950s and got beaten by them (with Japanese help) and the Commonwealth. The US went authoritarian, until the 90s.

Britain was liberated from the Syndies and the Commonwealth was restored. Britain's a leading manufacturer, particularly in electronics.

Arnold Schwarznegger runs the Danubian Federation.

More to follow :D
