History:
Upon the end of the Second World War, and the death throes of imperialism, the United Nations was created. Obviously, as this happened IRL. But due to the overwhelming victory by the Western Allies, the organization was far stronger than as we knew it in the 1950s.

One of the first moves of this ambitious project was to settle the question of what would become of the Jewish people in Europe, and what would become of the Mandates of Palestine and Transjordan. and so, along with his ambitious nation building projects world-wide and persistent lobbying by the American Jewish community, Harry S. Truman put forth the proposal of a United Nations transitional government to create a stable solution for the existence of a Jewish and an Arab homeland in Palestine.

Quickly, a council of the best and brightest around the world was assembled in the Jerusalem International Zone. Hopes running high, the council got straight to work on first a transition of power from the hands of the British to the international task force, which was quickly accomplished, as the jovial Arab community saw their British colonial masters depart from their lands.

The Special Committee For Jewish Resettlement was born within the Council, lead by member Golda Meir. This committee had the controversial role of getting displaced Jews from Europe to Palestine, which objectively was a success. Within months, the Jewish settlers already in Palestine rejoiced as they were joined by a deluge of their kin. But the committee took and unexpected turn, when they began also aiding in the immigration of Jews from America, Ethiopia, and across the world, many believe for the sake of bolstering the Jewish population in key regions of the nation.

The project was initially lead by UN Special Representative Frances Perkins, and Interim Governmental Council General Secretary Jean Letourneau, who believed the best course of action would be one state under a federal republican system, until the King of Jordan threatened to take up arms against the UN initiative. Plagued with a weak military force as it was, the Council decided to offer the King a place within the new government. This caused the new solution to include independence for Transjordan. Palestinian representatives didn't take kindly to this, fearing already their needs on the Jewish influx were not being met. Of course, their underrepresentation simply lead to them being ignored.

While the new government progress seemed dead in the water by 1948, bogged down with competing interests, the economic development projects were functioning better than expected. Roads were being built, and new urban planning was done, but the projects lead by urban planner Robert Moses overhired Jewish arrivals due to their education and favorability, which only created a greater divide between the Jews and Arabs of Palestine. At the same time, violence was just starting to erupt in the Sea of Galilee and Sharon Valleys.

By late 1948, the Jewish Legion had been formed, based off of the WW1 era group by the same name. Lead by Ben Gurion, this group was deemed a criminal organization by the Council, due to its socialist tendencies, while they received the support of more than a few Council members, especially the Jewish and token Soviet representatives. By 1949, violence between Jews and Arabs was on a large scale, and Jordan began to demand independence. And so began calls for more UN troops in Israel, which lead to thr numbers being ramped up from 4,000 to 10,000. The economic development succeeded, despite being very limited to Jewish communities.

In 1950, everything was at loggerheads. Totally ignored by the UN, the Arabs became desperate. A massive migration of Arabs to Jordan began, and much of Palestine had a Jewish majority. In a few years, a stable British colony had become a mess under an impotent international organization.

In 1953, the transitional government had been bogged down by infighting, corruption, and an inability to keep control over the local populace, so the the UN General Assembly took action. Removing both the Special Representative and Jean Letourneau, the two were replaced by former American president and accomplished nation builder Harry S. Truman, and Seán Lester, of the League of Nations was made General Secretary. By this time, the Jordanians were de-facto independent. A three state solution was drawn up, but was rejected, and so desperate attempts at a two state solution have begun. The once-happy Palestinians of all kinds had grown disenchanted with their new overlords for obvious reasons.

Now, it seems the only stable part of Palestine-Transjordan is Jerusalem, and the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv corridor, both of which are international territory. As the UN's grip slips on the new Jewish state in Palestine known as Israel, and over the Arab majority areas as well as Transjordan, who knows what could happen.

Navy Size: Eight coastal patrol craft, 6 frigates for transportation. All a hodge-podge of Western leftovers.

Main Military Commanders:Task-Force Commander General Peter Walls, Defense Secretary Yigael Yadin
Uniforms of Military: Mostly American or Soviet uniforms with United Nations insignia.
Weapons of Military: Again, a hodgepodge of Western hand-me-downs. More than a bit of the armory is stocked with confiscated WW2 German shit.
Tanks/Armor of Military: The tank force is very small, comprising only one armored division of various WW2 American tanks.

History: After World War II, the Korean Peninsula was divided into the Soviet backed North and the US backed south. In 1948, the United Nations permitted elections in the southern half of Korea (due to Soviet blocking UN inspectors in the north) and anti-communist statesman Rhee Syngman was elected as President of the Republic of Korea. In a following months, the northern half of Korea chose communist guerilla leader Kim Il Sung as President of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Both the Republic of Korea and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea declare sovereignty over the entire Korean peninsula and accuse each other of being a rebellious illegimitate regime. Both the ROK and the DPRK engaged in massive purges to remove oppositions in their own countries.

Both the US and the Soviet Union armed the two Korean states, the Soviets providing North Korea with contemporary weapons and vehicles while the US providing the bare necessities to South Korea (the US was too fearful that Syngman Rhee's contemporary military will invade North Korea and start WW3, which was the last thing the United States wanted). During the Chinese Civil War, North Korea provided volunteer soldiers to aide the Chinese communists, bringing home battle hardened soldiers while South Korea used their military to fight against left-wing guerillas.

In June of 1950, North Korea invaded South Korea and quickly occupied Seoul, the capital of the Republic of Korea. The United Nations responded with a US lead police action to defend South Korea's existence. The first few battles started off terribly for the Allied forces and the Republic of Korea only controlled the southern half of Gyeongsang under the Pusan Perimeter. However, the Allied victory at the Battle of Pohang and MacArthur's gambit in Incheon routed much of North Korean forces and enabled the Allied to retake Southern Korea. Encouraged by the victories, the United States and the Republic of Korea invaded North Korea and occupied Pyeongyang, the temporary capital of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea designated Seoul as the capital of the DPRK). In the later half of 1950, China invaded Korea in support of North Korea, surprising Allied and Korean commanders. Despite this, successful bombings and counter-attacks from the UN forces ended any hope of the DPRK surviving and it was seen as a lost cause.

The aftermath of the Korean War was a success for the nationalist element of the Republic of Korea. Due to the division lasting 6 years, there weren't a lot of tension between the Koreans of the North and South. At this point, the Korean population was just happy to see Korea reunified. This played a political advantage for President Rhee Syngman who was seen as the man who reunified the Korean peninsula. The ROK government continues to hunt down elements of the North Korean government and pardoned North Korean men who were drafted in the Korean People's Army. With Korea reunified, the ROK government finally puts economic development into mind with economic growths happening at consistent (but small) rates. Heavy emphasis was placed on education and a national curriculum was put into motion.

While Korea is unified, the ROK government still fears a potential attack from China and much of the Korean military was placed in the Sino-Korean border. There are fear from the population of another war that's brewing and with the Cold War still brewing, the future is in doubt.

Name:Valentino Mafiosi Organisation
Main Ideology: None really
Flag: http://ih0.redbubble.net/image.13835334 ... 360.u8.png
Anthem: (If any)
Motives: Creating a profit via controlling resources and the black market and creating hell
Goals: Controlling New York, and more territory if possible
Supporters: None, except a few smaller gangs
History: The VMO was created in Brooklyn, NYC during 1951 by Valentino Richmond, a small business man who was angry at the government for taxing his establishment so heavily. At the time Valentino had been secretly selling marijuana and cocaine secretly to his customers, and the black market,meaning he had good relations with other gangs. VMO consisted of Valentino's LARGE family, and a few others who he had hired, so 112 members. Valentino joined citizens at a large protest in Bronx for lowering taxes, where he recruited 430 members, in and around the protest. Over the years his gang grew stronger, uniting the cause of many pissed Americans, and taking the black market by storm, getting entire other gangs to join his. In 1958, the VMO swallowed up Richmond and Rackland, later taking over the Bronx and Brooklyn, becoming the strongest criminal organisation in history. It is now controlled by Feliciano Valentino, the son of Valentino, who was killed during an assassination attempt of the NYC mayor, which was successful. The VMO is so dangerous, that even the military has been ordered to hunt Feliciano, and other members down.
Territory Occupies: Richmond, Bronx, Rackland (Probably butchered the name, place in New York) and Brooklyn, NYC (If any)
Group Type: Militia/secessionist (i.e. Militia, Terrorist, Paramilitary, etc)

China was quite close to the USSR until Khrushchev's liberalisation and de-Stalinization which wouldn't really have happened by '55 anyways.

Canadians didn't have that large of a navy.

For Army, they had Centurions since Commonwealth.

Air Force, they had CL-13 Canadair Sabres, a version of the F-86.

Thats all I have for early era Canadian Cold War from the top of my head.

Due to the rise of the USSR, the UK has been taking a more cautious role in protecting the British Isles against Soviet attack, and also stationing soldiers in Germany encase of a fated World War Three that were to commence. The UK also has a small nuclear arsenal to use in tactical roles against mass formations of tanks.

With the capture of Berlin, under Pattons orders American tanks and men advanced further east until it eventually crashed into Soviet lines. Borders were drawn, and while Poland became Soviet Germany was put in Allied hands until 1950. Since the formation of the new republic, Germany has been quite friendly with the West and is currently undertaking steps to begin Germany's recovery.

Just as a FYI, on this timeline the Wirtschaftswunder has just begun. Also, could someone give me a hand with the West German military?


If I'm assuming that some tanks were built earlier due to alternate history, then I think you could have the Leopard 1 as a tank.

The Germans also had M47s and M48 Pattons, and were developing the KPz-70 Keiler, although I think that is a bit too late.

The Germans, for tank destroyers, had the Kanonenjagdpanzer and the Raketenjagdpanzer Series.

Why would Canada have any interest in purchasing Alaska or Greenland and why would America "sell" some 100,000 citizens to another country. Also why not just keep the irl Liberal Party?

OK, I'll remove Alaska/Greenland. Also, I was originally going to use a custom party, but forgot to remove that part.

Honestly, I can't wait for that situation where in the mid 1980s, the Cold War goes hot. By then the T-80, Leopard 2, M1 Abrams, and Challenger 1 would all be in service. It would be modern warfare mayhem.
