I think democratization of Italy now is wishful thinking

Not only is the Reich right there and intervened there before(even if rn it is busy with Russia) but they also have the examples of Franco, Salazar and the recently instated Integralist Brazil as the model of what a "true catholic" state should be like

I could see Fascism falling but only because the population thinks it failed to live up to it's promises of good living standards and being a "faithful" regime, wanting to replace it with something that will be just that

Franco is dead, Primo Rivera is the ruler of Spain as a Falangist state, now Negrão also leads a... confusing regime in Portugal that claims to be Integralist while also being Nazi.

The RSHA certainly has much influence in Italy, but the death of Heydrich left a few plans unfinished. The Italians also have their own secret services, expect a shadow war on the background of Mussolini's succession.
 
Also, a Goebbels victory ensures the Space Race will be a much bigger priority to the Reich than it currently is.
I originally voted for Speer, but when I read this, I immediately changed it to Goebbels. Nazi rockets are probably the big reason why we all got into this website in the first place. #nazirockets

I think a "Spring" is massively unlikely too. A "thaw" would make a lot more sense. Think of it as sort of the Deng Xiaoping moment of Italy, deciding to keep themselves Fascist but go free from Berlin.
 
Im hoping for someone else to do it to shake things up a bit but that isnt one of the fascists

Considering how devastated the Russian population is I'm suprised they have managed to keep a strong grip on central Asia. The empire has gotta be majority Turkic at this point. With a Nazi allied Iran I think it's only a matter of time before they start trying to gobble up more land

Iran has taken good portions of Iraq including Mosul, so they already have a little of an expansionist streak. No, Russia is not Majority Turkic, there were millions of Russians, Ukrainians, Belarussians, Poles, Balts, Tartars and other peoples who either fled or were expelled by the Germans during Generalplan Ost and have settled within Russia, many eager for a chance of revenge.

Iran and China do have interests in Russian territory, the Iranians themselves took parts of Turkomenistan during the Russian Civil War. China is mostly focused on acquiring Mongolia back and soon enough the Winter will end in Russia and the Summer will begin for the Wehrmacht.
 
I wonder if Russia wins the war with China they'll bring back Manchukuo as a buffer state. Due to living there so long a lot of Whites would probably have some affinity for the state.
