@Napoleon53 Have you ever heard of Rob Liefeld's comic "The Godyssey", featuring a prologue of Jesus fighting the Greek gods?

There is seriously some huge potential for "Saxon Christ fights the Inferior un-gods of subhuman Greco-Russian filth!" antics with this nonsense.

Well, shit. Seems like one mass genocide of an entire ethnicity isn't enough for the Republican Union. I expect this to be a hell of a lot worse than OTL's Holocaust, what with the inferiors being seen as even unfit to work, so whatever chance they may have in only being worked to death is sadly gone.

It also guarantees that the world is gonna be stuck in a 1984 tier scenario - the Europeans will go basically RU-tier from the revanchism as they see the Americans genocide their people. So to kick them in the nuts, someone might as well decide to pull a Mexico in England. Cue everyone going full retard

While I'm aware of the Draka, I actually have no idea what DoD is. I've heard it's evil America but have not delved into it for fear of it subliminally influencing me.

It's basically "New England secedes from the USA early on, the *USA becomes a planter-dominated slavocracy that's basically the decaying authoritarian hellhole of the world". It takes a much more..."realistic"? tone than WMIT; less cheesy over-the-top insanity and more "Eurasia ends up a little better, USA ends up much worse".

This is the kind of stuff that inspired my treatment of Irish people in WMIT. OTL Victorians being Malthusian and blaming their poverty on moral bankruptcy and Catholicism. The "workhouses" were my original inspiration for the corporate use of them as wage slaves.

I could see the RU using the Inferiors to rebuild infrastructure post-war with long term camps being placed out in the country. Say the New Territories in Canada in a similar fashion to the Gulags OTL.

I actually find out about Malthusian ideas and about the man himself in a video essay discussing the idea of "overpopulation" recently particularly his ideas on "overpopulation" and how a lot of his ideas lead to eugenics and social darwinism. I could see many RU officials using Malthusian ideas on overpopulation and what have you to justify murdering the "inferiors".

"If we keep on housing these inferiors we're going to become overpopulated and we will collapse into anarchy...blah blah...breed like rats...blah blah....only us the betters have the foreknowledge to plan our children...blah blah...if you measure there skulls you will find ...blah blah"

Well all I can hope is that the illuminati start getting involved in science and create theories and ideas that disprove the pseudoscience of the RU.

Also quick idea HG Wells as Chief of Propaganda for the Britannic Union, although he was a socialist (in particular a Fabian) he did believe in Eugenics and some of his ideas of utopia come off as a bit "fascistic" so he wouldn't be that out of place. Maybe Illuminati members Eric Blair and Lady Jessica Mitford assassinate him later down the line.

The last few updates have been interesting yet horrifying at the same time. Its seems that the so-called "Inferiors" of the Union will sadly not gain any freedom, but that the iron fist of the Republican Union will come down on them even harder.

On a possible plus side, maybe the Quebec Flu could cause the Union to retreat from Canada, maybe setting the stage for another major war down the road.

I've never read Decades of Darkness, but I have heard of it. Is it still unfinished as of yet?

I could totally imagine What Madness Is This? being written by an American who's still pissed off about the War of 1811 and people calling the USA evil, and wrote this timeline about what would happen if New England was more powerful than in Decades of DarkessTL.

How does the Republican Union reconcile its glorification of Rome with its view of Italians as inferiors and its hatred of both paganism and the Roman Catholic Church? Does it engage in some kind of Nordicist revisionism and claim that the Romans were Anglo-Saxons?

I'll let Napo give a formal answer but here's what I remember.

The Romans were the "Pinnacle Men" who are among the direct ancestors of the Anglo-Saxon-Judaic Race. However, since their empire was around before God gave Christ to the world, their paganism is excused as ignorance of Christ. Later when Christ appears, the Empire's acceptance of Christianity as state religion proves that their Pinnacle Blood was wise enough to follow Christ. However, this happy state of affairs was ended in the later years of the Empire, where Roman Pinnacle Men and Women bred with the influx of Hunnic Mongolid Steppe Invaders, resulting in the collapse of the Empire. From this mongrelized race comes the Inferior animals of Southern Europe, and the perversion that is Catholicism.

Simple, in their ideology, the Romans were a different breed than modern Italians. They were pinnacle men, which is how they came to dominate the Mediterranean. They lost their pinnacle status after much miscegenation with barbaric uncivilized tribes (ironically a lot of these tribes were germanic) but I'm sure the R.U will say it was the Celtics and Slavs who did it. Their rampant miscegenation created the modern Italians and other inferior races like the Spanish, Irish, Iberians, etc.

As for the paganism, look at Nippon, they were pinnacle men who never received the word of Christ until Constantine.

Also I think the R.U has a thing for the ancient Greek too since Alexander the Great is considered a pinnacle man.

Edit: oh sorry looks like I was beaten to it.

I don't think Celts are inferiors though, because Scots are accepted as Betters. Then again, the Irish are considered inferiors. I guess there's no point in trying to find the logic behind batshit insane racialist pseudoscience.

I could see the RU developing something similar to the New Chronology that works in favor of the Pinnacle Man rather than for the Russians. The presence of the Russian Horde (which is equated to all real-life 'barbarians' including the Mongols, Huns, Goths, etc) in the real-life version could even be present in the RU's version, just equated with savagery and barbarism rather than the basis for Russia being entitled to rule a bunch of places they actually aren't.
