You've already done more than you realise. These eruptions mean severe winters for the next several years, and that in turn leads to food scarcity for many people, and that in turn leads to armed communist uprisings.

Without a clear leader(Lenin is a reformist Tsarist, Trotsky is just a writer, and Stalin is in Caucasia) the OTL Revolution in Russia will fail spectacularly. The various anti-Tsarist groups will rise, only to turn on each other before Nikolai II is deposed, meaning that the white armies just pick them off one by one.

Island of Blood (novel written by General William Yukimura) is a non-fictional account of the events of the Meiji Islands campaign from the General's point of view. The book shows the bloodshed on both sides, and carries a reminder that war is a dangerous game where the innocent die, and remorse is rife with all. The most emotionally raw part is Yukimura's recollection of the aftermath of the surrender, the burials. He remembers the Japanese camp's mood, despite their victory, the funeral pyres burned bright and large as men wept and cried, quietly singing Umi yukaba to honor their deaths. The book was a best-seller in Japan.

Lobotomy will be a Portuguese innovation given to the world, and until 1974, it'd be extensively used in Portugal, especially among Arabs in the Southern Provinces (who are far more likely to criticize the government).

The von Lichts/fon Likhts live to point out the embarrassing realities. And most of your writers are taking the embarrassing realities of the CSA, so they point at Japan. They point at Germany(the Miserable Ones, Blessed Are the Persecuted) and Russia(Vox Populi) and Rum(the Righteous Cause) too, and even the CSA(With Liberty and Justice for All), but Japan... well, Japan needs the same treatment. Gavriil is likely to continue writing, turning his sights on the Svanidzes, likely the status of Africa, probably the Central European Conflict, as time passes. His son- because, like his father, Gavriil will find love and have a family after fleeing his home- will likely continue writing. Maybe the fon Likhts will Americanize, change their surname to a more 'Confederate' one, and stay in the Confederacy. Maybe their honesty will have them flee New Orleans, as Gavriil fled Saint Petersburg and Georg fled Berlin.

Major published works of note in the RP including some not yet published ICly

Georg von Licht / Dzhordzh fon Likht

1. The Righteous Cause
The year is 1951, and the world is divided between eight superstates: Freistaatland, Südamerika, Nordseeallianz, Mitteleuropa, Großarabien, Zentralasien, and Ostasien. These nations are in a state of constant war that has left the world ruined. Karl Eichemann, the protagonist, is sent to end the war and bring peace; however, catastrophe kills Eichemann and restarts the feud.

2. Neither Victory, Nor Peace
The empires of Jiaozhande and Hakuchi, led by the shortsighted monarchs Kangsong and Tennohito, turn a war of words and baseless accusations into a devastating continent-wide conflict that leads to millions of deaths, mass rebellions, and ultimately their own deposition. The novel was published as a criticism of escalating tensions between China and Japan.

3. Blessed are the Persecuted
Jewish German Yaakov Fiegenbaum and his family live in a defeated 1930s Germany that turns to anti-Semitic politicians Ludwig Ernst and Johannes Heisenberg, who initiate ever-increasing persecutions against German Jews. The book chronicles Yaakov and his family trying to live through the persecution. At first forced into ghetto, then into hiding, and then into a death camp, only Yaakov and his son Yitzhak survive(and Yitzhak loses his legs along the way). After the anti-Semites are deposed, the two try to rebuild their lives.

4. With Liberty and Justice For All
Black Confederate Miriam Robinson unintentionally becomes the leader of the equal rights movement in the CSA, but she gladly accepts the role, leading strikes and marches that force the Confederate government to grant equal rights to all citizens and end segregation. Surviving assassination attempts, she is elected President by a sweeping majority in 1964, cementing the progress made by the civil rights movement.

5. The Miserable Ones
Jan Janowski, a redeemed criminal who has broken his parole, must try to avoid the relentless Eugen Marschall, who seeks to put him back in chains. Meanwhile, Jan's adopted daughter Andzelika falls in love with Polish revolutionary Maksymilian Mysliwski- who is torn between his love Andzelika and his fellow revolutionaries Ostromir Wieczeslawski and Szymon Topolski. The revolutionaries rebel, but most die in the German response- though Janowski manages to save Maksymilian and bring him to Andzelika. Marschall, realizing that Janowski is indeed redeemed, kills himself; Janowski also dies shortly thereafter.

6. Vox Populi
Valentin Pushilin, head of one of the subdivisions of the Union of Federative Unified Republics, a Russia without a Tsar, works for the country's repressive dictatorship, established 80 years earlier in the 1910s. When a dispute about reform in the country leads to a hardliner coup against the country's reformist leader, Pushilin heeds the voice of the people and demands that the UFUR be done away with and replaced with numerous democratic states- a vision that ultimately comes true.




Viktor Eberharter
(see "the Miserable Ones" under Georg von Licht)




Josef Ibakov
1. Blood of the Crescent
In a semi-propagandized account of the siege of Sevastopol/Aqyar, Ibakov accuses the Crimean army of committing various war crimes during its fight for independence from Ukraine.




Michael Matsudaira

1. The Fading Sun
In an alternate timeline, the Japanese shogunate defeats Go-Daigo and initiates a period of isolation that leaves Japan technologically backward and abused by foreign powers. Despite a push to modernize and gain the respect of world leaders, Japan is largely destroyed after several brash and dictatorial leaders wreck the country, leaving it devastated. The story ends with the few remaining Japanese chafing under Chinese rule.

2. Unit 731
Written as an unofficial partner to Blessed are the Persecuted, this book follows the bloody trail left by a Japanese army unit committing mass crimes against Chinese civilians and Americaner POWs in a dystopic war-torn world.




Gavriil fon Likht

1. The Great World Wars
Fon Likht, taking a page from his father's books, writes about a hellish world dominated by poor economics, warring nations, technology used for genocide, and brutal dictators. The book follows the world through two Great Wars that leave much of the world devastated and millions dead, and foments decades of international division and distrust. In the end, every one of the book's six main characters dies, whether they 'won' the wars or 'lost' them.

2. The Life and Times of Edward Harper
Canadian intelligence worker Edward Harper realizes that the Royal Intelligence Agency of Canada is breaking Canadian privacy laws with its spying program, and decided to steal classified documents and leak them to the press. Fleeing to the Confederacy, he begins releasing the documents, which reveal Canadian spying at home and abroad. The news spreads like wildfire, and he is variously declared a hero and a traitor as a global debate on surveillance begins. The book ends with the RIA's head telling the press that Harper has only released a tiny fraction of the data he took.

3. A Time of Destruction (original)
Nongbu Jeonghwan, a craftsman belonging to the Yeojeon ethnic minority, begins to lead a fight against the oppressive rule of the Henkyoese Emperor Go-Yowai and his bloodthirsty general Satsujin Hijoshikina. The ability of the Henkyoese to respond is hampered by Henkyo's war on the Free States of Terranova; however, Satsujin's army are still able to exterminate and enslave hundreds of Yeojeon. Seeking peace, Nongbu(now Chancellor of Yeojeonia) meets Satsujin to discuss peace; Satsujin kills him. Nongbu is ultimately avenged by his rival and Deputy Chancellor, Jyeonlyeong Dongmaeng: Jyeonlyeong strangles Satsujin with the chains that Satsujin used to keep Yeojeon slaves, and forces Henkyo to let Yeojeonia become independent.




Muhammad Abbas

1. The Crescent and the Star
In a book postulated to be Rumite propaganda by some, Abbas describes a Middle East without Rum as a Middle East in total chaos. Islamic radicalism, ideological coups, ethnic feuds, and Zionism all lead to the deaths of thousands and permanent instability, which is taken advantage of by various foreign powers seeking to exploit the region.




Chodren Dawa

1. The Effects of Leftism
The book begins in a totally uniform world- however, we soon learn that the hero, known only as Equality, has a hard time fitting in. He falls in love with a woman named Liberty, and after the government tries too hard to impress conformity on them, they form a rival society that brings back individuality to the world.

2. Obscurity
Architect Wei Nianqing and his colleague Se Jidu face difficulties as they lose out to architects better at sweet-talking clients. However, people eventually turn to Wei and Se's more inspired and modern architecture. Se turns on Wei and attempts to destroy his empire and kill him; ultimately, though, Wei comes out on top.

3. The East is Red
In Chodren Dawa's first play, she describes an alternate future where China is not as fortunate as it was. In several wars over opium and rebellions over everything the emperor does, China grows steadily weaker and more divided before having the monarchy overthrown and a period of total warlordism break out. As the period of warlordism ends, a period of ideological warfare breaks out(supported by the Japanese, who invade and establish various puppets). Ultimately, China winds up under a group of dictatorial rulers who must be defeated by the government-in-exile of China's brief period of democracy. After the return of peace and liberty to the country, it is unified, strong, and happy at last.

4. The Asian Manifesto
Chodren Dawa here outlines her plans for the creation of a libertarian Asian Union, dominated by China. Though initially weak, this Asian Union would grow stronger and stronger as time passed, eventually uniting Asia under one banner once and for all.




Jean-Louis Bouclier

The first play based on the Righteous Cause, Bouclier's work is a pro-Guyanese and anti-Brazilian propaganda piece in which Eichemann dies in Südamerika and is replaced by violent revolutionary Maxmilien Bouclier, who united the world by force and exterminated his opposition to bring about utopia.




Karl Jung / Rong Kai-er

1. The Autumn of Empires (book)
The fictional realm of Ojczyzna, once a great empire, has been divided between the nations of Westens, Südens, and Dong, which has left the people demoralized and abused.

Tamerlan Jaharnaev

1. The Autumn of Empires (play)
Based on Karl Jung's book, this play adaptation replaced Dong with Vostok(an anti-Russian move, which in unsurprising given that Jaharnaev was Caucasian). The ending is also modified: Alojzy's brother Wladyslaw finally finishes his brother's dream and guarantees Ojczyzna's independence.




Ardghal O'Berach

1. Fruit of Freedom
The author outlines his idea of a united, independent Ireland, free from British rule and run by a secular High King and Catholic clergy. O'Berach also outlined plans to promote Irish culture and to 'cleanse' the island of English influence. However, he warns, the book is for Ireland only, and is not for foreign use.

2. Ireland and the World
Furious at global support for Britain, O'Berach returns to criticize the world standing by as the British exploited Ireland. He also proposed that an independent Ireland should colonize Africa or the Caribbean. He also advocates ethnic nationalism globally.




Mao Peng-hui

1. Entrance to Heaven
A Chinese family moves to the imperial colony in Chinese East Africa to seek a better life for themselves and to 'civilize the continent'. When stranded, a group of kind but backward Africans and heroic Chinese soldiers help them to Tianshang. The book was released to promote colonization of Africa by East and West alike, portraying Africans as savages in need of civilizing by foreign powers.




Phillip Engel

1. The Fates of Men
The play version of the Righteous Cause endorsed by Georg von Licht himself. The Fates of Men stole bits and pieces of the other plays about the story to create something of an anthology, containing something from every one.




Antero de Quental

1. Slaughter of the Moors
Ibrahim Muladi, a wealthy Moor, rebels against the oppressive Prince João of Algarve. Establishing a small Moorish emirate, they briefly experience independence before the Portuguese reclaim the land and slaughter the Moors en masse, leaving Algarve a barren wasteland.

2. Twilight of the Peace
After criticizing the Portuguese monarchy and being driven out of the country, João Llano travels the world searching for a place to start anew. Llano's unfortunate association with the dimwitted Antero results in them being driven from Guyane, Italy, and the Confederacy. Ultimately, Llano drowns Antero and returns to Portugal- where he is pardoned on the morning of his execution.




Haruna Hachisuka

An adapted form of the Chinese fable of Hua Mulan, this story follows Haruka Kamakura in her adventure to find honor and justice through the Imperial Restoration of 1331 and the later Kyoto Rebellion of 1340.

3. Freedom in the Stars
In the year 2009, British bureaucrat William MacAlister must face the Confederate States of America, led by President Lewis Wright and General Robert Jenkins, to reveal the fact that it has revived its slaving practices, banned by the CSA in 1891, and taken them into space. The Confederacy, in the process, makes several other incriminating errors. Ultimately, the rest of the world forcefully balkanizes the Confederacy, dividing it into several small puppet states.




August Breckenridge

1. The Battlestar
After the United States of Kobol are destroyed by the evil robotic Cylons, who view humanity as inherently cruel and evil, the surving humans- led by President Rosalyn Laurent and Captain Frederick Adamson- must face against the Cylons and their allies, largely represented by Cylon Model Six and Dr. Hadrian Callis, as they attempt to find the long-lost thirteenth state of Earth.

2. A Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich Shukhov
Based off of Gavriil fon Likht's time in a Russian gulag, this book follows Ivan Shukhov as he attempts to survive a ten-year jail term for a crime he did not commit. The book describes his relations with the other members of his work gang: Tyurin, the foreman; Yushenko, his assistant; Klevshin, a former soldier; Markovich, an intellectual; Kilgas, a Lithuanian separatist; Golpchik, a boy accused of treason; Fetyukov, a prisoner for decades; Buynovsky, a former naval officer; and Leshenov, a Baptist.

"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink; I was a stranger and you invited me in; I needed clothes and you clothed me; I was sick and you looked after me; I was in prison and you came to visit me... Truly, whatever you did for one of the least of my brothers and sisters, you did for me."
- the Gospel of Matthew, 25:35-40

Maybe the fon Likhts will Americanize, change their surname to a more 'Confederate' one, and stay in the Confederacy. Maybe their honesty will have them flee New Orleans, as Gavriil fled Saint Petersburg and Georg fled Berlin.

If they flee New Orleans, they should go to Guyane. ;)

I have a criticism of Guyane already slated to hit the shelves under Gavriil or his son, not sure of which, darling. Guyane is off-limits.

If he flees the confederacy, he'd be welcome in Venezuela.

I was honestly thinking either:
1) Quebec, which will be the moderation to the CSA's extremity
2) Denmark, which wants to say 'fuck you' to Germany in whatever way possible
3) Niihau, because it's very isolated and because nobody wants to deal with the Takahashis.

Why would he criticize Guyane? Too revolution-y?

The book is going to be dual criticism of not!Guyane and not!Caucasia, along the lines of "Full-Circle Revolution" and "The Revolution Will Not Be Civilized".
