...Wow, the ME really is still going to be a blasted heath by 2050, isn't it? Also, neat burgeoning divide in MEGAISRAELI society.
Anywho, a question has sprung to mind: what with increased British influence and support in this world, will more Commonwealth states feature the Union Jack in the corner and retain the sovereign, or will it just be the protectorates? Speaking of which, due to a distinct ambiguity within the chapter, I'm gonna extrapolate that Somaliland and the Trucial States remain protectorates to the present, if only because the surrounding regions are so damnably terrifying.
And while the Afro-Fascists may seem to be a blessing for the moment, I'm nigh-certain that the West is going to look back at encouraging them and wince in the modern era when the next nutter decides that geography is destiny and tries to conquer huge swathes of the continent.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm gonna be legitimately sad when this Mussolini dies. He's a fuckwit dictator, but... I guess the term here is Worthy Opponent. Bastards, but not the commies, nazis, or commie-nazis (*cough* UAR *cough*). Plus the humanising scene with the Hungarians and the fact that he's essentially this timeline's anti-villain protagonist somehow equates to a respectful hat-doffing.
Bravo, Sorairo.
