Early death of Wilhelm II, Wilhelm III is crowned emperor with Prince Albert as regent. It is technically a Germanwank in that Germany has a much better 20th century, and because by many ITTL Germany is seen as "the good guy". But it's also not a traditional wank in the sense that Germany doesn't magically land lucky breaks, and the narrative never shies away from the dark sides of German politics and society. The author has an unconventional conception of what a wank TL is, as well. Like others have said, the Reich is given an opportunity to fix what is broken within it. On some things it succeeds, on others, it doesn't. It's a very deep exploration, from urbanism to academia, and avoids the typical clichés very deftly.Never heard of Es Geloybte Aretz. What’s the non-spoilery TLDR? Lord knows I have enough TLs I’m reading rn but still could be good to have one for when I finish Osman Reborn
Apologies for the OT TheReformer, rest assured it is not meant as a way to distract from your work. To me, you're already in the same league as the great classics
