Already looks hella cool! Perhaps the PoD could involve Japan discovering petroleum in Manchukuo in the run-up to Pearl Harbor?

That could work in keeping the war effort going, though I'll have to look for information on that so that it'll be reasonable in that time period
WWI POD : Switzerland erupts in civil war over tension between the Entente-philiac Romands and Italians, and the CP-philiac Swiss Germans.
The Entente still wins WWI, resulting in a partition of Switzerland between Romandy, Deutschschweiz and Italy. It is to be noted most bicultural cantons were taken over by the Romance-speakers.
When Hitler comes to power, he doesn't have a place to stash gold in, but he has another country he can Anschluss easily. The Entente still gets another six months to rearm.
Romandy being an Entente member leads the French high command to decide to fight the Germans on the Rhine plains of Northern Switzerland. In consequence, they fortify more intensely the North of the country. They are completely taken short when the Germans invade in force the Low Countries, but the armies reinforcing arrive mostly in time. Sedan doesn't fall, and although the Low Countries have fallen, Maginot has held. Meanwhile, a Communist revolution explodes in Bulgaria, leading its neighbors to stage a short Balkan War to make sure it gets no silly ideas, grabbing border territories.
The Entente follows up on smacking Germany like a bitch until the German army has a meltdown. At which point the Romanians join the Entente over Hungary trying to grab Northern Transsylvania from them. Slovakia decides it was the real Czechoslovakia all along, and the Entente rolls on until the German-Soviet demarcation line. And forget the brakes.
The invasion of the Soviet Union entices many anti-communist powers to join the Entente, resulting in a one-sided beatdown for Soviet Russia, especially after the Japanese launch a massive offensive on their Far Eastern seaboard, cutting them off from any foreign supplies.
Five German states after the peace :
Suddeutsches Bund
Niederdeutschland
Königreich Preußen
Rhenisches Republik
and the best, Fürstentum Liechtenstein.
The Poles may have gotten a bit Kresy on the Intermarium idea.
I have nothing to say about this but.......

Not only Dutch-influenced Japan, but Dutch-influenced Korea and Manchuria, too? Now breaks my clog!
Oh you ain't seen nothing yet...Not only Dutch-influenced Japan, but Dutch-influenced Korea and Manchuria, too? Now breaks my clog!
Had a burst of activity.
A largely speculative map for Vasilas's unfinished timeline, "Out of the Ashes." https://www.alternatehistory.com/fo...e-empire-from-basil-ii-to-the-present.392656/
(Americas almost purely speculative except that they got a lot of Muslim refugees and maybe Scandinavian colonies)

Hey everyone, first post on this forum (and hopefully not the last).
I'm trying to work on a scenario and below is the corresponding map but I'm just not satisfied with what I've created so far.
PoD is the United States and Italy not joining the Entente during WW1 and the war ends with France and the German Empire imploding after a drawn out stalemate situation. The map depicts what happened to the German Empire after it was torn apart by a civil war between the monarchists and republicans and it ends with intervention from the side of Great Britain and Habsburg Austria. Prussia is ruled by the Hohenzollerns, Bavaria is absorbed by Austria and the Rhineland forms a union with the Benelux States, acting as a buffer state between the French and the German successor states.
I've got a feeling I'm still missing something, either in the lore or on the map but I can't quite put my finger on it. Can someone please take a look at it and point out areas I could improve on? Thank you in advance.
