Meadow, your TL inspired me to get back to doing research on the evolution of the occupation zones in Germany and I managed to find a lot of good info to update the map I made.
Hats off to you!

Did Denmark keep any part of Schleswig Holstein, like Sylt?
Yes, I first found this today via Roem's excellent Yorkshire Assembly timeline, and I can only say that I am very happy to find out that you have decided to look into Danish history a little more since we last discussed the situation!
I can only say I very much look forward to one day having a lengthy proper in-depth discussion of Scandinavian politics in general with you, preferably in either Copenhagen or Malmö.
I liked the personal touches to the story, in particular the ending with the flowers and all that. As has already been rated, but that I think bears repeating, excellent to see you experimenting with the TLIAD-formula. I think you've nailed this approach quite thoroughly.
And I like your inclusion of Pia Kjærsgaard (a woman I am quite convinced is incapable of looking anything other than furious).
Finally, since I must point out something that peeved me a little... You have Queen Margrethe II say that her family came from Austria? Surely the House of Glücksburg, being a junior branch of the House of Oldenburg, have always been firmly rooted and settled in Northern Germany?

Oh, those are very nice in their own right, so another good consequence of this TL!
It's a pity I've found this so late. I would have otherwise nominated it for the TLIAD category in the current TAs.
Don't worry, it's been nominated - I was going to do so myself, but iainbhx got there first.
Oh, this was very well-written.Enjoyed it thoroughly. And given your Danish ancestry, this whole idea was probably very close to your heart.

A very good and original TLIAD nonetheless.

Huzzah !Very good to hear, Jon.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for this TL.
It was indeed close to my heart - though obviously the central 'story' is fictional in every sense - and some of my Danish relatives have enjoyed it too.
