Chapter 638: Operation Tsunami

Secret Test Side of the Balloon/ Air Carrier Brigade:

“General Shojiro Imuchi, Colonel Takuyosa Nishiguch, Major Kikyu Hitashi?” questioned a young looking Imperial Korean Colonel, hoping he had been send to the right location in Japan. The three man standing in a circle around their latest test idea, for a new prototype, a Airship Carrier for the Pacific War all turned around at once.

“I'm General Imuchi, might I ask who you are and what business you have at this top secret base?” questioned the Japanese General a little surprised that the man had not only found their way here, but also had manged to pass the guards as well.

“My name is Colonel Tan Tae-Hyun, or Colonel Isozaki Hikosaburo in my Japanized name, I was send here on orders of Japanese General Seishirō Itagaki, Japanese Admiral Yamamoto as well as Chosen Admiral Kyong Sunghyon, or in his Japanized name Amachi Yoshihisa.” explained the Chosen soldier confident, as he handed out the personal letter of Isoroku Yamamoto. “I was send here for my idea of how to fight the American Colonialists.” explained the Chosen from Korea, hoping truly that he was at the right place.

“You are at the right place according to this letter, but what ingenious idea could you possible have?” questioned the General Imuchi now quit interested in what the young man had to say.

“I was informed that our Co-Prosperity Sphere mine-layers had immense immense problems operating in enemy waters without major support by our own ship or airplanes.” explained the Korean. This was true outside of the Japanese controlled seas in the Indian Ocean and the Eastern Pacific the Japanese mine-layers had massive losses and weren't quit as effective as the Japanese had planned or hoped. “So my idea was to use the Pacific Ocean Current itself to our advantage and send anti-ship mines trough it directly to intercept the Americans in the Aleutian Islands, Alaska and the United States West Coast to hit allied civil and military shipment in these regions in masses.§ explained the Korean. The plan was not without it's risk as such floating mines could possible once return to Japan and also interfere with the Imperial Japanese Navy own supply convoys to the Aleutian garrisons, even if they were far and few in between.

“We already had thought about such a idea, but it was denied as to dangerous because of our own shipping lines there.” explained the Japanese General much to the amusement of his fellow soldiers in this secret base, after all Yamamoto himself had received their report on this topic before, so why was this man from Korea still here?

“Yes Admiral Yamamoto had explained the problems to me, so the basic idea I had in response was to either send the mines out in calculated waves with the current and plan our own supply routes accordingly or and I believe this is what Admiral Yamamoto was most likely approving of, use our most northern air and naval bases in the Chishima Island to drop them away from our own supply lines either by being dropped bigger Japanese Naval Bombers or even dropped from special Balloons or Airships outside our own naval supply and travel routes.” explained the Korean Soldier his idea and much to his own surprise General Imuchi, who commanded the secret base was actually quit interested in doing so.

“I believe you are just right here.” assured the Japanese General the young Chosen, as he welcomed him with a gesture willing to ship him around a bit. “Just one question remains, what should we call such a ambitious and interesting project my fellow Asian brother?” questioned Imuchi interested if the Chosen himself had already thought about a name for the planned project, prototype or operation?

“A name? Hmm how about Tsunami?” asked the Korean soldier not quit sure if that would fit, but the Japanese standing around him started to warm up to him and his idea. It would be the beginning of a quit interesting and promising operation during the Second Great War in the Pacific. For their project they would use modified version of the Japanese Type 93 Naval Mines that were of Hertz Horn construction, weighed 1,543 pounds (700 kilograms) with 220 pounds of Type 88 high explosive, that in itself consisted of 66 percent ammonium perchlorate, 16 percent ferro-silicon, 12 percent wood pulp, and 6 percent oil. A normal Japanese mine-layer could carry up to 500 of those and while the idea to drop them from balloons, airships or planes would make for quit smaller numbers, the Japanese later build fortified bunker fortifications, whose sole intent was to bring out those mine into the Pacific current and send them on their way eastwards to America.

Chapter 639: Mohammedan National Monarchist

The Rise of National Monarchism not only happened in Europe, but other Monarchist and Aristocratic regions of the world. As the German Emperor Wilhelm II was open for close friendly ties between the German Empire and the Mohammedan world, mainly to have a major ally against the British Empire and the French Empire in Africa and Asia (especially Turkey and India), Radio Berlin started to broadcast special propaganda in Turkish and Arabic too. Inside the Neo-Ottoman or Second Ottoman Empire the movement was split, as parts of the military in the authoritarian ruled Sultanate of Abdulmejid II called for a more secular approach and embraced pan-Turkism over pan-Mohammedanism, while others hoped that the Turkish Ottoman Empire could become the new Caliphate and unite all Mohammedan people under one banner and state, not just the Turkish people of Central Asia. The Saudi Arabian sponsored part of the National Monarchist Mohammedan movement under Abdulaziz Ibn Saud however was more religious in nature, even if it at the same time called for a pan-Arabist National Empire and Mohammedan State. In Persia under Reza Shah Pahlavi the movement was depending on the military and the royal court and served more as a pan-Persian foundation to oppress foreign influence like that of the Soviet Union, the British Empire and the Second Ottoman Empire with their protectorate, the Azerbaijani Sultanate who had all established zones of influence inside of Persia and controlled the border regions, as well as Persian politics and decision much more then the Shah and the Persians liked. But with their greater power in industry and military there was little the Persians could do and so after the Anglo-Soviet invasion in 1941 the pro-Axis Central Powers Shah Reza Pahlavi was forced to abdicate in favor of his son Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. As his father Reza would die in 1944, Mohammad would remain on the throne and use the National Monarchist Mohammedan movement to cement his power.

In Afghanistan King Mohammed Zahir Shah meanwhile eyed with the National Monarchist Mohammedan movement as well, especially since his Prime Minister Mohammad Hashim Khan had close ties to the Japanese Co-Prosperity Sphere and the All-India Mohammedan League of Muhammad Ali Jinnah. While Subhas Chandra Bose would manage to get the support of the Mohammedan League for his Azad Hind (Free India) as the provisional government of Assam-Benghal in 1943 to 1944, for the simple fact that the Mohammedans outnumbered the Hindi/ Hindu in this regions and therefore could dominate politics in this new Co-Prosperity Sphere member state without fearing to be outnumbered and outvoted by the Hindi/ Hindu majority like in the rest of India. The same however was not true in the West of India and so the Mohammedan League called for the establishment of a separate Mohammedan-majority nation state in the majorly Mohammedan territory they refereed to as Pakistan, that would be independent and separated from both British Raj or a free Indian State. Since the majority of this region had before been part of Afghanistan or it's predecessor, the Afghanistan National Monarchist Mohammedan movement called for the reconquest or re-annexation of the Pakistan territory into their Kingdom to reestablish the Emirate of Afghanistan, or the Afghan Empire, a move that was heavily supported by the Japanese in hopes this would lead Afghanistan to join the Co-Prosperity Sphere and attack British Raj from the West. Beside the rising crescent and star as the sign of the Mohammedan faith, the National Monarchist Mohammedans also used the sword of God as their symbol, however the type of sword varied greatly depending on the region the movement operated in, as did the overall color; the pan-Turks and Ottomans used Red, the pan-Arabs and the Saudis Green and the Afghani used Black.

Chapter 640: Japanese Colonists and Settlers – Population Pressure and Emigration Part 4: The Third Wave during the Second Great War Part 1: The Co-Prosperity Sphere Core region, the Japanese failures in analyzing and planning and the overall situation in Asia

The Co-Prosperity Sphere Movement began as a pan-Asian call for self-determination and independence, as well as a means to modernize and industrialist to preserve and protect those goals. Between 1934 and 1942, in just eight years, the Japanese had not only sponsored various nationalist, socialist and even communist local anti-colonial and anti-imperialist movements and even rebellious uprisings from the former Chinese Empire over South East Asia into India, but also fought those that opposed their own goals or would simply have lead to another spread of European influenced ideas (Capitalism and Communism) instead of Coprospism. Therefore they crushed the Communists in Manchuria, Yankoku, National Han China, Vietnam, Burma and Java to support their own sponsored independence movement in alignment with the Co-Prosperity Sphere. Funny enough this often lead to a support of said movements by the Soviet Union or even the Western Allies, exactly those powers who had before often oppressed and outlawed them in their territories and colonies, but now that they opposed the Japanese rule, they were suddenly welcome allies again. The Japanese Co-Prosperity Sphere victories and liberation of new nation states, as well as those of the Axis Central Powers in western Asia (Middle East and Russia) lead to the increased spread of other anti-colonial and liberation movements all over Asia as well. In India open uprisings and protests occurred and Soviet Union Central Asia open called for more autonomy and self-determination, leading to violent rebellions and revolt in some chases, when the British Forces and the Red Army violently oppressed such protests and calls with propaganda and brute force. The Axis Central Powers willingly supported these groups with propaganda and even weapons if possible to weaken the British Empire and the Soviet Union as their direct enemies, while the Japanese Empire openly called for the collaboration of all pan-Asian movements and for them to join their fight to become independent national member states inside the Co-Prosperity Sphere.

At the same time the Japanese own colonization plans inside the Co-Prosperity Sphere were suppressed, as it turned out that major parts of their new member states were themselves already densely populated (Yankoku and northern Han National China) or at least already good populated (Chosen, southern Han National China and Taikoku) while other regions (most of Korea and southern China) were still good populated and some (like Manchukuo, Mengjiang, Yikoku and Vietnam) were underpopulated or in chase of the rest nearly not populated at all. However these underpopulated or nearly not at all populated regions looked like this for a reason. The Japanese main urban areas had a population density of 500 to 1000 people every square kilometer, with their southern island having at least a density of 200 to 300 still. This meant that while their northern main island with it's 100, Hokkaido with it's 32 and Sakhalin/ Karafuto with it's 8 people every square kilometer gave at least a little bit of room for colonization and expansion, the Japanese mainly eyed the mainland of Asia and South East Asia. There lived in Chosen/ Korea only 100 people every square kilometer, in Farmosa/ Taiwan only 126 people every square kilometer and in the southern resource area that the Japanese had conquered the situation looked even better; Brunei/ Borneo had only 3 to 6 people every square kilometer, Celebes/Sulawesi 19 people every square kilometer, Sumatra 14 people every square kilometer and the territories of Tenggara and Nuigui/ Papua were so densely populated that there were not even accurate numbers to calculate with. Only Java had a population density of 264 to 600 people every square kilometer, the main reason for their Indonesian movement to colonize the outer islands surrounding them. For the Japanese this meant most parts of South East Asia and the Pacific Islands were (unlike much of mainland Asia as hoped before the Second Great War) not only open for massive Japanese immigration and colonization, but that this vital resource regions could become majorly Japanized in a short amount of time, securing them for a increasing Japanese Island Empire with more Home Islands then ever before. At the same time the Japanese hoped that the outlawing of Japanese Immigration into parts of China, Australia and AMerica, that had so drastically increased their population pressure in the Home Islands and leat in parts to their expansion for new selling markets and colonial areas would end, with their victory during the Second Great War too.

The Pacific States of America will look like a giant Japanese port... Complete with other overpopulated Asian countries exporting their surplus population there too.

Australia might remain closed right after WWII. However, if the War of British Humiliation happens (with Italy retaking East Africa and France retaking Free French colonies), Japan might take advantage of it to pull a Reverse Perry on Australia...

Chapter 641: The Stab from the Black

Inside the United States of America while outlawed or at least partly outlawed, the German American Bund, the Silver Legion of America and America First Committee (AFC) still had some influence, as they as well as the Second Klan had joined forces against those, who they believed to be to blame for the American losses during the Second Great War, the Jews, the Catholics of the Blacks inside their own population. The KKK even adapted some of the ideas, ideologies, conspiracies and ideas of the Fascist and Nazis and implemented them in their own world view. During their peak in 1924 to 1925 the Second Clan had around 3,000,000 to 6,000,000 members, but since then their numbers had shrunken, so that by 1930 they only had 30,000 members. Now that the war wasn't going in Americas best interest, the KKK and their ideological very close friends and allies of the German American Bund, the Silver Legion of America and America First Committee used this to increase their propaganda and blame the anti-American elements in society they deemed responsible for this mess.

In the eyes of the Klan the Catholics had sided with the Axis Central Powers and their National Monarchist and Fascist Royalist movements, many of their members were even majorly Catholic themselves and the Klan used their own version of the German myth of the Stab-in-the-Back, something they called “the Stab-from-the-Black” as they blamed the Blacks, Catholics and Axis Central Powers ethnic national state members like Ukrainians, Baltic people and others for the losses and problems the American had during the Second Great War. The Klan called them backstabbers, saboteurs and spies in their propaganda and rallied support from others feeling like them, hoping to grow the Second Klan to it's former strength and beyond once again. In one of their moves to gain more support and show that they still had the numbers and the masses behind them, the Klan tried another march in Washington DC, like they had once before done with 30,000 to 35,000 people. The Klan rallied all their supporters and managed to gather 80,000 people from all over America to protest the American participation in the War as well as the backstabbing of the American soldier on the front-lines by internal enemies.

The March for America as the Klan called it was joined by ideological supporters and close ideological allies as well as others who supported a End to the War. The whole rally and march was a great propagandist success and helped the Klan and ideologically close related groups to gain new members and much more acceptance in the overall public, especially in the South, were a majority of those fighting in the Second Great War and their families came from. Together with those coming back from the Second Great War overseas, infected by the Ideology of National Monarchism and Fascist Royalism, the United States was in for a massive, drastic change afterwards, especially down south in Dixie. Still the rise of the Klan and others like them lead ti more protests and even some violent clashes with opposing protesters or the police that lead to some forms of street fighting in some places in America. Chaos was coming, racist riots and another version of a American Civil War.

Chapter 642: A German Peace Offer

“... the German people and the English people are closely related, both German tribes. Why should we bring down our both great monarchies and nations with continuing raging this unnecessary and bloody war on the backs of our citizens? Shouldn't the two greatest Germanic Nations work closely together instead of against one another? Clearly there is place inside the world for both our Great Nations and Empires. We will continue to let Britannia rule the Waves, unlike my fathers ambitions, but please in return let Germania rule the Land. We are brother, we can remain brothers and close allies and save many, many lives on both sides.

Sincerely Wilhelm III, German Emperor” read the letter that had reached the British in London, sadly for the German High Command and the German Emperor, the British King and the Parliament would never see this message and their peace offer at all.

“Who knows about this message?” questioned the British Premier Winston Churchill smoking his cigar before the open fire place, as he looked up to the General who had brought him this special news.

“Only a handful of people, we thought it would be wisest if you as the Premier Minister were informed first.” explained the British General much to the relieve of Sir Winston Churchill who had actually began to kind of sweat as he had red the message, this peace offer he now realized, now that he just sat there.

“That is wonderful relieving news.” smiled Winston as he took the message of the new German Emperor and placed it in the fire, so that it could burn.

“Sir, what ...” questioned the British General irritated, as he saw the note burning.

“As far as I am concerned no message of a German peace offer ever reached us here.” said Churchill and the way he said it he made it clear that this was a direct and lasting order everyone should obey. “Please take care that everyone involved in this will have a wonderful nice leave of absence from their hard work at the European Front, some nice little isolated Island of the Empire where they cannot reach anyone anymore for the rest of the War.” suggested Churchill as he felted his hands and looked up to see if the British General had understood everything.

“But Sir, this offer ...” tried the British General to argue about if that was the right path to take. At least the Parliament should get informed about this and debate about what course of action to take.

“No but this time Sir, I know the British population is suffering, I know our Royal Air Force is crippled, I know our Industry is getting bombed and that our people are dying, I know all too well.” said Winston tearing up a bit, as he felt responsible for every failure and every loss the Empire took under his command. “However, the second we accept this German terms and hand them over the Continent of Europe or other possessing, the Empire is gone and so is our sovereignty.” knew Churchill all too well, if a defeated and nearly disarmed German Empire could have beaten them, the French and the Russians again and take over Europe, what would a victorious Germany then be able to accomplish, take over the Rest of the World? No, such a peace should not be allowed to happen as it meant the downfall of the British Empire either way. “I will not give up the fight for our liberty as long as there is as much as a little finger left of us ready to fight for our freedom and our Empire.” explained Sir Winston Churchill and the British General nodded quietly, understanding that sometimes the best course of action for the people and nation someone loved was not automatically the most popular one as well.

“I'll make sure everyone involved has a a nice furlough far away from Europe.” nodded the British General as he watched the message in the fire burning too. The path for the British Empire had been set, there was no turning back now.

Yeah. It doesn't hurt that Stalin wasn't completely right of mind.

To be fair, in my timeline, The elephant, the lynx, the two wolves, the dragon, the eagle, the griffon vulture and the bull, a timeline where Germany wins WW1, Nazism originated in Russia under the name of Nasism. The leader of this new Nasist Russia is no other than Stalin, who IOTL was as much as an antisemite as Hitler. As such, in my TL, the Holocaust and other genocides committed by Germany in WW2 are committed by Russia.

Chapter 643: The Chinese Theatre

China: southest KMT main control (mostly occupied by the enemy, southwest loosely controlled United Front Territories with questionable loyality and alignment)
---

The Chinese Theatre during the Second Great War was often overlooked and diminished by European and Western Powers. That was despite the immense size and population of the former Chinese Republic, as most of them often believed China was to incompetent to find a military and political solution in their war against the Co-Prosperity Sphere. At first the situation of Chiang did not look that bad for him despite Wang Jingwei's coup, as he quickly had managed to ally himself with the Communists under Mao and some remaining Chinese Cliques and Warlords to form the Chinese United Front. While nearly all of them had gathered their forces out of necessity and none of them believed this alliance to hold longer then their war against the Japanese, it still helped them to strengthen their defenses. German foreign aid (1928 to 1938) and from 1941 Allied (mostly British and American) as well as Soviet Union aid helped to keep China in the fight and tie down large numbers of Japanese and the other Co-Prosperity Sphere soldiers on the Asian mainland in China. With the Japanese/ Co-Prosperity Sphere conquest of southern China and their alliance with Tibet, the Allied Burma Road was blocked and supplies had from then own flight over the Himalaya Mountains, harassed by Co-Prosperity Sphere fighters. Beginning in 1942 2,500 tins per month were flow into China, peeking with over 35,000 tons in 1943/44. The United States did so to prevent as many Japanese/ Co-Prosperity Sphere forces from leaving China and entering the fight in the Pacific, the British had a similar strategy to prevent them from fighting in Burma/ India. Around 900 to 1,000 Allied transport plains and escorting fighters would be lost together with 1,800 Allied pilot and crewmen until then, but they would manage to transport 650,000 tons of supplies and 35,000 soldiers to China this way. The Allies even tried to support the Chinese United Front with strategic bombers, but the bad infrastructure in China soon led to their abandoning of such plans.

But what sounded so good for Chiang and his Untied Front on paper, looked so desperate in reality. The Japanese and their puppet States inside the Co-Prosperity Sphere (Manchukuo, Menjiang, Yankoku, National Han China, Taikokuo and Yikoku) had carved up China, worse they had overrun and occupied the Chinese Southeast the very core and heartland of the Kuomintang National Government and thereby the regions most loyal and best administrated by Chiang. His before on paper 1,7 Million Chinese forces in 191 Divisions were a mere ghost, a phantom nothing more, as only 400,000 soldiers had been part of the core Kuomintang Army, while 520,000 had been supported by various Cliques and Warlords loyal to Chiang's Central Government. Now that the Co-Prosperity Sphere had been victorious and supported the build up of their own armed forces the situation looked much darker. The former parts of the Kuomintang Army that had joined Wang Jingwei's National Han China had only made up around 80,000, but the Japanese were quickly expanding them so that they had quickly risen to 300,000, then 600,000, 800,000, 1,000,000and in the End of the War in 1944; 4,000,000 soldiers. The Japanese supported them with around 500,000 of their later total 5,000,000 to 5,500,000 soldiers, or nearly every tenth Japanese soldier during the Second Great War. Their allied Chosen Army original made up of 300,000 had risen to nearly 2,000,000 to 2,400,000 men in 1942, Manchukuo's forces had risen from 800,000 to 1,400,000 (but the majority of them fought in Siberia), Mengjiang forces had risen to 200,000 soldiers, the former warlord Army of Yan Xishen had increased from around 200,000 to 1,260,000 on Japanese side, the former Guangzi warlord Army had risen from 170,000 to 1,200,000 under the Japanese and the former Yunnan Clique with their 40,000 to 60,000 soldiers had risen to 120,000 to 140,000 under the Japanese.

Further more the southern Sichuan Warlords and a few other southern factions and cliques in Guizhou and Henan, leading to the desertion of their 250,000 to 340,000 soldiers. Meanwhile the Communist forces had grown from 80,000 to 160,000 in 1938 to 800,000 to 1,200,000 in 1942 with the Communists taking more and more control over local provincial and city or town administration inside the Chinese United Front. This meanwhile alienated the Ma Clique Mohammedan forces and their still around 300,000 soldiers. While Chiang still had the most forces inside the Chinese United Front left, he realized that his numbers were shrinking. In 1943 the United States President Roosewelt even stated; “We have to push our main offensives soon, as it is uncertain if Chiang and Stalin can hold out and survive until 1944!” All of this led Chiang to believe that the Chinese Civil War would soon break out again, more split up and chaotic then ever and so he denied the Allies any use of his main forces against the Japanese, wishing to preserve them for the upcoming second round against Mao. Mao meanwhile unknown to Chiang had lost the majority of his best equipped and skilled forces against the Co-Prosperity Sphere during the failed Hundret Regiments Offensive (Chinese: 百團大戰 ) in 1940, as well as the increasingly better Japanese/ Co-Prosperity Sphere anti-guerillia encirclement campaigns in southern, central and northern China that had eliminated much of his infiltrating Guerrilla forces by 1942 alongside with the remnants of his supporting main elite forces. The Allies could not understand why the Chinese United Front despite their impressing numbers on paper denied any major assault and operation to drive the Japanese and the Co-Prosperity Sphere out of their own homeland. The situation was made worse, as the Amerikan General coordinating the Chinese United Front, Joseph Warren Stilwell (aka Shih Ti-wei of Vinegar Joe) was a complete wrong choice, as he constantly made the wrong decisions not knowing the Chinese abilities and infrastructure, or their Japanese and Co-Prosperity Sphere opponent very well.

Chapter 644: Imperial Negroes in the New German Empire

The social position and acceptance of the Imperial Negroes (German: Reichsneger) in the New German Empire was controversial to say at leas. While being viewed as sub-humans under the Nazi Regime, rather few Nazi propaganda and teachings outside of classrooms actually addressed even those few living in Germany at that time. Some Imperial Negros even fought on the Eastern Front like Horst and Herbert el Cher/ Perling, the children of Gustav Sabac el Cher and Gertrude Perling. With the End of the Nazi rule their relationships to non-blacks (aka Europeans and even Germans) were legalized once again and as Imperial Citizens they all regained their passports. Some German Colonial societies even founded German schools and human-rights organizations for former German Colonial Territories (with various reasons for doing so, some out of the kindness of their heart, others to remain a German presence and therefore claim on said Colonies). They were finally allowed to work as musicians, variety, circus or film professionals again. The African colonial empire under German predominance planned a apartheid-like systems under he Nazis in 1940 and even included a Imperial Negro passport design, but with the End of Nazi rule some views and ideas changed massively. The Nazis even had sterilized Imperial Negros to prevent them from reproducing, a affront they now gained reparations for from the German Empire and even were allowed to adopt kids, who had become orphans because of the Second Great War itself by either the front or Allied bombing raids.

Some like Hans J. Massaquoi even wrote a autobiography about the Nazi Rise to power, their rule and later End as the German Empire returned. Hans even had joined the Hitler Youth and viewed himself as a proud German patriot, but he was constantly harassed and left out, leading to the young saying what would become the title for the first half of his book; "But I am German ... my Mother says I'm German just like anybody else". Being born German and mostly raised German too, despite his Liberian Grandfather, Hans even made a unusual friend in Herr Von Vett a SS member, that would later lead to the sparing of Von Vett (who even shook his hand during their first meeting, something unusual for a German during the Nazi rule) during the SS trials in Imperial Germany. Even under Nazi Germany, his friend Von Vett was convinced that Hans Mossaquoi would be of “great service to Germany one day” because of the demand of skilled technical trained people, knowledge he had gained during working for a blacksmith shop working for the Lidnner A.G. later. With the German Imperial victories in Africa, Hans Mossaquoi and Von Vett were put into service to educate and train a Imperial Negro workforce for the upcoming reclaiming of German African Colonies, teaching natives under Axis Central Powers rule the German language and modern skills in technical and engineer positions. The young girl Hans had secretly dated a German girl in secret, now in the new German Empire, their relation could be lived out in the open and they even married in June 7, 1942.

Hans Mossaquoi even volunteered to join the Imperial German Army during the Second Great War, but the Imperial German High Command put him and his friend Von Vett (who by then had joined the Teutonic Order) out of active military service, as their work for the future German colonies was seen as to important and vital for the future of the German Colonies in Africa. Despite this original statement, both Hans Mossaquoi and his friend Von Vett would soon be a official part of the Imperial German Military, but only after the Second Great War, when they and their families moved to the retaken German Colonies and not only established new schools, but also trained the local Askari Militia and colonial soldiers. For their service to reestablishing the German Colonial Empire in Africa, they would both be rewarded with the Imperial German Pour le Mérite.
