"What Madness Is This?" Volume I: The Union Forever

[Gar48]

@Napoleon53 , if you ned to find a papal name for Mussolini and/or a teological ispiration for his actions, i would suggest you to use Saint Ambrose, saint patron of Milan.
Not only he was known for his persecutions against everything that wasn't chatolic including other christians,pagans and jews ( to the point he refused the idea that Jesus was jewish), but he also strongly believed that political power should be submissive to the Church.
Interesting enough Ambrose also believed that classical roman virtues could be still used if united with the teachings of the Bible so you could have Mussolini's obsession with imperial Rome even in this TL

Well Pope Mussolini may simply use both of them: if he writes down his relgious manifesto, he will probablu use numerous sources to legitimate his decisions

Why not simply Benito I?

Ave, Leo Ambrosius I!
As for Pope in Avignon, I guess Clement (As Clement V who moved the Seat there.) Sylvester (Pope at the time of Constantine, was always very compliant and, needless to say, the Emperor loved it.) I.

So when are the occupied territories going to be properly annexed into the RU?

As soon as their remaining populations can be swamped 50 to 1 with Fundamentalist settlers.

Since I doubt there are any protestant Irish left, I bet Belfast will be a completely English/Scottish city by now. Churchill will probably have it renamed "Cromwell" to annoy the Irish (Irish hate Cromwell)

Fixed for you.

Gotta get a chapter on the Britannic Union/Ireland soon. I could imagine that the Inter-Irish border is like the Line of Control in Pakistan/India, where you have lots of skirmishes and occasional small scale wars like the Kargil War

 

[FranzAncheNo]

I don't know if this is something that I remember from one of the chapters or not. Does IRA ITTL stand for Irish Royal Army?
