I'm actually trying to come up with a scenario without a US on the pacific, only a California and a Oregon. Hawaii would be an independent country. Regardless, this works fine too with a USA that just ignores Japan or, for some reason, supports it. Alternatively, having Japan ignore the US and not spark the war.

I'm wondering how far Japan would get in its conquests. Assuming that Hitler goes down to defeat in 1945 as in OTL.

The Soviets would be tempted to open up a front on Japan... or would they... they might cut some kind of deal. Would Japan march into Australia without a US to distract it? etc.

Thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
