The Drums of War: Sequel to Turn of the Century

Well Mexico certainly shit the bed right off the bat.
 
While I am not going to make an attempt to have you reverse the events of the Ukrainian Civil War, I just wanted to state that it was never planned to establish a puppet Kingdom in the region. I intended to establish a Republic, much the same as Estonia, with French advisers seeing the nation through the turmoil that followed the of the Great War. I intended for them to be little more than French/Hydra aligned buffer zones between Europe and Russia. Armed to the teeth and extremely well trained with the backing and support of the French Empire and her allies. I planned on pulling out my government advisors later in game, and just keeping up a defensive alliance with a few odds and ends economic treaties.

While I am sure you had no knowledge of this, and it works well in the game setting, I just wanted to tell you @inquisition . I blame myself for not speaking up earlier, but this is the first night between college and work that I have had time to read the OP in detail.

Here is a post I made about it way back then;

Ah, well, my mistake. Thanks for letting me know. I'll be keeping the current situation (makes for a more interesting Europe IMO), but this is good to be aware of.

I see it's larger than OTL? But other than that, basically OTL? Does that mean it's essentially drifting towards Fascism then?

The last war it fought was with Chile, which ended in a victory. That was relatively recent in the timeline. It's political scene is going to be radically different, but the same overarching governmental structure and such wasn't altered much ITTL.

If you wanted to take Argentina, you could move them in an Integralist direction if you wanted.
 
Is it possible to claim the Philippines once it's elections are cocluded?
 
And that was it a small post to start things off. I would imagine despite it's proximity to Prussia-Poland Sweden would have still been very much on a similar path to OTL. Still both Integralism and Societism are there as minor fringe parties.
 
@Inquistion Australia had 3 million by WW2 I don't think WA had more than 800,000 of that so shouldnt the Dutch have at the most 1 million not a couple of millions

I remember in my history class back in high school, when we were doing a unit on WWII. Our teacher brought up a Powerpoint slide with Hipster Stalin on it and one of the girls blurted out how "cute" he was. There wasa very awkward silence once the teacher explained who he was. :V

I'd like that. I'll run it by you once I get GM approval to have the Philippines and I get time write something up.

If Bigseb approves, and he has, you're welcome to hop in. Just keep in min the realities of being a client state.

According to Populstat, it had a total of 6,667,000 by 1935.
