As the USGA I am going to be focusing quite a bit on technological development with Germany actually. I certainly do think we have the resources.

YUS!

As the USGA I am going to be focusing quite a bit on technological development with Germany actually. I certainly do think we have the resources.

Indeed you do

Indeed.

Okay, well, wow.

I'm now thinking how possible good relations with the USSA would actually be. I mean, we are pretty leftist, though we're constitutional monarchists too.

*suggestive shrug*

This is what I'm saying. And the USSA doesn't have this strong communist economic stance entirely either. We have a sort of "NEP" policy going with larger gov't control of industries.

Mhm....

No, the empire is not. Besides, the USSA would have to build up their fleets considerably, just like in real life.

remember how ww1 was a thing? which you lost?

Lost, but with a rather lenient treaty which may or may not be due to the fact that Germany almost imploded and had no time to actually impose the blockade it threatened to.

No, the empire is not. Besides, the USSA would have to build up their fleets considerably, just like in real life.

Yeah you really are. You lost WWI so you don't get that small stability boost that you recieved IRL. The USSA already outproduces you (so does the germans I'd assume). Your navy, while still large, will be able to be eclipsed in total war production. Your power is spread thin and the Germans and Americans are relatively stronger. The UK stopped becoming the world super power IRL at 1914, and they won the war. Here they should be even worse.

Eh... they lost but with a rather save treaty. Britain still is Britain, and most of the colonies still bow to Britain.

There was no Great Depression, the colonies continued to contribute, and that also means those millions of Indians are usable. So the UK is still definitely a global power. Add Japan and you have a superbloc.

Good point.

union of socialist levantine republics

We have oil for sale.

Shhh... Maghrebi oil is best oil, don't listen to Levant.

YUS!

Shhh... Maghrebi oil is best oil, don't listen to Levant.

We should create an early version of OPEC

Nuu! Remove Revolutionary from oil! Mitteleuropa oil is best oil!

There was a Great Depression, how else do you think Murrica went Communist?

It was established that because of the result of the Great War, European economies were much less tied to the American one when it happened and so were much, much less severely affected.

Yep.

wat
that certainly doesn't make any sense

Actually. Having gained the market of eastern Europe and the additional colonies they form an economic bloc, similar to the EU, though not quite - as it mostly isn't voluntary.

ehhh, the Anglo-Japenese alliance prolly would go to war with both of our sides, so naval might is unquestionably theirs. Air power will go to the central powers, with land forces prolly going to the Comitern. So everyone is sadnessed

"naval might"

don't forget, the british empire is collapsing

Eh...

This is precisely why I keep saying Mitteleuropa and the British-Japanese should ally.

Not for war, but, well, because I think we need to defend from the Comintern. And let's face it - we're actually pretty similar as far as ideologies and government goes.

Well yes.

I think he was talking about the British plus the Japanese.

sorry for the double post

I'm sure he was, but the USN could probably handle both.

I imagine it's pretty inevitable that another war would be won by the Comintern, so it'd probably just be everyone else's best bet to consolidate their circles of power before another war begins.

Actually, that's far from guaranteed.

Assuming the so-called Comintern (which I suppose it is the communist alliance in place of the Warsaw Pact?) has any plans of attacking other nations.

Obviously.

I really need to ramp up my airforce since that's how the USA became the Hegemon it is.

But if the world is still all realpolitik/weltpolitik Germany (at least, maybe Austria) would see any reason to fight against the Comminterm. So what if USSR is strong, you have a ton of buffer states in between it and are arguably much stronger than it. America isn't bothering Germany in the least bit (if anything there should be lots of backroom deals with regards to trade and stuff). The UK+Japs are a much bigger threat to them. It's not about ideology in this world, but practicality. The Communists aren't this strong and coherent alliance like the other nations due to lack of similar goals (except for making china communist). They aren't a threat to the middle germans, in all honesty. Russia may be, but the USSA isn't. The USSA has no problem with you guys except for, well, not being communist, but that's not all of a big deal since you are outside of the New World. An alliance with the Anglo+Japs against a minor alliance would really only help the British. They are the US's biggest rival. You'd be trying to eliminate a nation that, well, would only make your actual enemies (Brits) stronger as there isn't anything to gain from the USGA+Germans to attack the US.

Regarding the buffers: That actually may now be in question, depending on the ukraine and caucasian app.
Against it alone they are stronger. Though if it is allied with, for example, china or the US?
The UK and Japs are Navy-centric. The continent is mostly safe from them.
Etc,etc.

I really need to ramp up my everything since that's how the USA became the Hegemon it is.

ftfy

kebab can into receiving US lend-lease?

Depends, most of US naval power in the pacific was concentrated in Hawaii. So any sort of Pearl Harbor followed by military occupation...

remember how pearl harbour worked irl?

oh yeah

guide to not losing until 1945

1) don't piss off america
2) don't invade russia

Actually, Imperial Germany pullled off number 2 successfully. And then it lost because it also did number 1. That would lead to the assumption that you only loose if you do both. Though Napoleon did only one, and yet he failed.

USSA has Russia to deploy from.

ehhh, the Anglo-Japenese alliance prolly would go to war with both of our sides, so naval might is unquestionably theirs. Air power will go to the central powers, with land forces prolly going to the Comitern. So everyone is sadnessed

Actually, depending on how advanced China is, having manpower from the whole eastern europe and such, Mitteleuropa might also lead in terms of Land Power, if not necessarily numerically.

Oh please, using modified Amerika-Bombers to drop paratroopers onto American soil to let our submersible troopships land under the eyes of the American navy where we then sink them in port will go swimmingly, especially when we do it in '44.

A quick strike then will ensure that America is too preoccupied with trying not to be anschlussed by the Reich to invest much into developing nooks.

Trust me, I've seen it work in vidya gems.

No but think of all the logistics involved with trying to invade America. Literally the only possible nation would be the UK through Canada, but even that'd be difficult. So what if you do a landing and take New York (which would be hard enough). Now you can't expand your borders as you don't have enough troops to supply your movement. Unless if you launched a huge ass army, which would probably get involved in a naval battle in the Atlantic. You land, capture a city, then get blockaded and seiged by the USSA forces before your reinforcements arrive only to be met with a mega-fucking war machine that has the world's highest industrial output.

Good point.

K so I'm just realizing what the title is.

Eagles - Germany+Austria (cause CoA)
Lions - UK+Japan (Cause UK symbol)
Bears - USSR+USSA (cause USSR, but I'm not really sure why since the USSA is much more powerful)

The only way it would ever be done is via Canada.

Which is still really hard and an absolute drain on the British. You'd have multiple points of crossing the St. Lawrence via Niagra or Detroit-Windsor, but those aren't great options. You could launch troops to Nova Scotia and push down, but that'd be very tireless and hard to do. It's not like Germany where you can just push and push and hope to capture it all and eliminate the government. Texas alone is like the size of Europe. America is fucking massive. You could take, at best, up to New York, and that's assuming you somehow can take Boston. You'd be pushed for luck to take much. Sure you can blockade the coasts, but good luck taking anything. Bomb Detroit? Might be the only move that'd be helpful to you, but I doubt the facilities to do so would be as close as the airbases in Michigan at this time to Windsor.

Texas is not the size of Europe. Bull f*cking shit.

Eh, basically both sides end up fighting an oceanic war, with U-boots and super battlships. No real invasion force can touch either side. Now, if it goes into a three way war however...

USSA has Russia to deploy from.

Eh... Combined Eurasian Naval might could probably lock off Vladivostok and St. Petersburg both and then that idea is invalid due to lacking any proper harbor.

To clarify, all the germans who came to the US were in Operation Paperclip. That was after the bomb you guys.

*not sorry about double post*

Yeah, but there were actually a fair few who fled in the early 30s because of the Nazis, as I understand it. Einstein was among them and he's the reason the atom bomb exists.

Mhm....

Combined I'd say we do.

no, sorry, not with all the weapons and materials you'll need to keep your stretched-out undermanned empires from collapsing
(srsly john annexing all those colonies was a turrible idea)

Which is why I decided to let it be 20 years after, amongst others. So that the industry could invest in the cheap labor available in the east and massively expand industrial capability of the pact.

Eh... it's rump-state russia, smaller than pre-WW2 SU. And the "failnazis" are more like a continued German Empire.

Too bad all those Krauts that did wonders for it didn't run off to America this time around, eh?

And yurop has its own uranium, somewhere on the Silesian-Bohemian border, I believe.

That sounds interesting.

russia + murrica = faster research than failnazis

Russia purged its scientists in the 30s and the US relied quite a bit on German scientists that fled there.

Mhm....

Russia purged its scientists in the 30s and the US relied quite a bit on German scientists that fled there.

Yes, and mitteleuropa doesn't have the spare industrial capacity to produce an extra 25% of the USA's total electrical power necessary to construct a single nuclear bomb.

Eh... all of it together, and having had 20 years to develop. I mean, you'd have to completely ignore historical post-war values for quite a while. For some things, at least. Including industrial output and such.

Monroe Doctrine? Sorry, what?

I'm quite afraid Britain-Japan and Mitteleuropa didn't hear that.

Ok.

And that will make Japan-Britain and Mitteleuropa very angry with you.

Maybe.

Is this how violent the world is? That you can't respect another's sphere of influence and you are ready to go to world war over it?

Well whatever. I'll do it anyhow because lets be honest, none of you guys are gonna want to start a world war with me over installing a coup (that won't be directly tied to me) in a state that exists between two of my socialist buffer states. I'm actually glad he did this because now it makes for an easy socialist central america instead of having to do it to a ton of countries.

Good point.

-quickly copy pasta it-

danke

Also, for open nations, there is an opening in Indochina for a Condominium of Japan and Siam. Basically a protectorate, like the UBD to Germany I think.

Right.

@Jon, indeed. I'm hoping to negotiate with Hannover (or whoever is doing the Russia-area nation) to get that one province in return for other stuff (non-meddling in instability, removal of minorities sorta stuff, etc.), and either invade or pressure the rest of the land; Crimea, Kuban in the Caucasus (from 2 nations) and a bit of Romania.

You really have to get a good history for that as Germany will be really pissed at an Ukraine doing stuff independently so close to them.
Also, Romania is definitely impossible. Germany owned the Oil wells there and any risk to them is high priority to be eliminated.

And? I lost barely any territories, didn't have to undertake the cost of maintaining German colonies, and significant amounts of investments in the US were most likely withdrawn thanks to the the US betraying the Allies. If anything the German economy would be worse then mine because suddenly they have massive amounts of colonies to support and maintain.

As well as resources and markets to exploit and sell to.

Honestly, you have a point.

This should be about writing a good story anyway.

Good point.

Actually scratch my Peru reservation.
Reserve me Argentina 112. This is one is definite

Mhm....

Obviously, this should be Mitteleuropa's flag.

...Dreams of a European Federation? Nah...

Honestly, you have a point.

This should be about writing a good story anyway.

Mhmm. While it'll be competitive and lots of stuff going on, I care mostly about the story.

I'll have to say I'm split personality here. OP and storywriter me wants this to just end up awesomely in some form, but German Empire Supreme Emperor of Mitteleuropa me wants it to win....

WAIT A SECOND!

Is Spain communist or is Franco winning the civil war? Is there even a civil war (cause there should be)?

Good question.

Auroya, would you be ok with me included a past deal between the USGA and Maghreb essentially trading Maghrebi oil for aid in building up the Maghrebi military, as well as humanitarian deals later on? (I'll talk to Jonathian about deals with the German Empire when he gets online, but since you are online I figured I'd ask you)

Great.

Not to mention that the Manhattan project was a join project between the US, Canada, Britain and the other Allies. It'd be much limited with only one of those.

To clarify, all the germans who came to the US were in Operation Paperclip. That was after the bomb you guys.

*not sorry about double post*

Not all.

Einstein.

einstein's direct contribution to the actual bomb project consisted primarily of signing a letter to the President, sorry

I mean, that's still pretty important.

"naval might"

don't forget, the british empire is collapsing

Except that this time, Japan generally does have naval might. The IJN is competing directly with the Royal Navy for dominance over the seas IIRC, in terms of size.

guide to not losing until 1945

1) don't piss off america
2) don't invade russia

I found a better guide.

1) Don't be fascist.

There was a Great Depression, how else do you think Murrica went Communist?

We already went over this. The GD affected America a hella lot more than Europe ITTL because the loans that the USA gave Britain never happened and ergo Europe was less reliant on the American economy as a whole.

I agree with some of that.

Here's a communist USA emblem.

(Image)

Also I a dropping my application for Venezuela. Reserve South Africa 112.

Ugh, ok.

Lol what? The US was already communist by the time the GD would have happened. Communist countries are hardly affected by depressions (see Russia) due to command economies. I'm not exactly sure what you're saying.

I can't remember exactly what it was that we decided upon, but it was before you apped for the USSA so it could be redundant now -shrug-

Good point.

I know. I changed the name because I absolutely detest the name South Africa.

But it's incorrect.

It's like having the country be France but calling it Germany.

You could call it Kaap?

Agreed on both of those.

It's just becoming so easy for the UK to hate the USSA, lol.

You're going to push us into Germany's corner if a war ever breaks out, damn your eyes!

YUS! JOIN US! JOIN THE ONE TRUE EMPIRE! BOW TO THE EMPEROR!

But it's incorrect.

It's like having the country be France but calling it Germany.

You could call it Kaap?

It's not illogical. South Africa was uncreative from the beginning. Just name it after Cecil Rhodes, after call he did stuff in SA. I'm atleast 95% sure.

But Rhodesia was a different colony.

You're going to push us into Germany's corner if a war ever breaks out, damn your eyes!

Not really. USSA doesn't have a world revolutionary ideology, only wanting freedom within our hemisphere. We have good relations with the Germans. I doubt the Germans would go and just forget the past couple decades of Anglo-Germanic hostilities just to help you attack a friendly nation.

Don't tell them plox.

Not really. USSA doesn't have a world revolutionary ideology, only wanting freedom within our hemisphere. We have good relations with the Germans. I doubt the Germans would go and just forget the past couple decades of Anglo-Germanic hostilities just to help you attack a friendly nation.

Attacking the USSA really wouldn't be worth it. I'm sure a surprise attack on both coasts (Anglo-Japanese alliance) would meet with initial success, but it'd just turn into a drawn out struggle that would sap away at our strength.

I have an idea. Try it. If it doesn't work out then Mitteleuropa will just jump on you to your "defense".

Upon reading up on it Cecil Rhodes was pivotal to South Africa developing as a nation. It would make sense to name it after him.

PoD (besides the whole entente-losing-ww1 thing) is 1918, though.

Yep. (Even the Entente-WW1 PoD is 1917, so it doesn't matter that much).

Everyone went communist.

This is actually accurate

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE. Kinda.

So.......What did I miss?

Spam and such.

After talking to one player, the USSR will undergo pretty interesting stuff. Mhmm, a new chapter is ahead.

Yeah...

Britain should totally force a referendum in the state of Natal...

Do it. I propose you should take your whole navy and army to pressure them into it leaving the home islands defenseless.

I'm making plans in my head as to how Danubia could turn communist and what would happen.

History: After the embarrassing defeat of the country in World War I, Russia experienced significant political reforms that dramatically changed the country, especially in the regions most affected by the war. Although the NEP was put in place, this one differed in a number of points. More economic freedoms were given at the local level and some room at the regional level.

Because of the defeat, the government created certain policies in order to keep its southern (Middle East) regions under Soviet control. The first move was to provide some room for regional autonomy in regards to social rules and labor laws. Also, propaganda campaigns were used in order to keep the people of those regions under Soviet influence. Since the war showed that the country suffered of infrastructure problems in those regions, the Soviet Union began to improve and expand its rail lines connecting those Middle Eastern regions to Moscow. What was most important is that the state began to invest more and more in the oil and gas infrastructure of those regions in order to reap the benefits of those commodities and improve the living standards of the people in those regions.

With the arrival of Joseph Stalin to power, the country began a new era of industrialization began which brought both, large amounts of development in the country as well as a large number of deaths because of the harsh policies of Stalin. The military began to improved and expanded at a rather large rate in order to defend the country from any possible attacks. With the arrival of Stalin to power also came a number of policies aiming at creating a totalitarian state. However, because of the failure in the war and the policies created as a result of it, Stalin's pursuit wasn't as successful (as in RL). Although the government has a large presence in society, it isn't as radical as in RL.

Although the Soviet Union has recovered from the war, there are still some sectors of the country that are in need of imminent reform and investment. Also, some of the infrastructure that wasn't improve in the post-war years is beginning to show the signs of time and aging which has made it evident that the country needs an urgent infrastructure reform.

After World War I, the revolutionary government stirred guerrillas and paramilitary groups in the territories lost that border the Caspian and Black Seas. The policy was kept under large secrecy by Stalin in order to avoid the protest from the opposition factions and spark a possible fall from power. Through years of intense fighting and weak social conflict, a part of the territories lost fell to quasi-Soviet governments that swore allegiance to the Soviet Union. These states soon rejoined the country thank to the influence of Stalin in their governments. However, anti-Soviet paramilitary groups have appeared in those territories hoping to push back Soviet influence.

The 17th Congress of the All-Union Communist Party has been postponed from 1934 to 1938 (OOC: This is going to play a big role) since Stalin saw that his power was under direct threat if the Congress took place in 1934. His hopes are to further consolidate his power before the 1938 date.

Lol. Not ironically the USSA doesn't agree with stalinism. Hence why Earl Browder will be my Roosevelt and people will be scared he is in power too long so they will put term limits on the politburo presidency after he dies in 1944.

[Auroya]

Germany, you should totally go Communist too.

If I do go communist, it will be the type that believes in liberty, representation, equality of opportunity, and so forth.

...Fourth International to spread Communist goodwill?

^ This. Never got a response either

Germany halp Red menace at borders

Well, for now it's merely a thing that could happen.

We'd still likely stay on good terms with Germany if it did happen.

And the reformed USSR and USSA, too

Well, I do remember you saying something about reforms.

The hope was that should this chain of events go down, we'd end up striking an alliance.

USSA and Com-Austria would be good friend then.

You get Serbia and Bosnia, and Slavonia, I get Dalmazia, Venice, Istria South Tyrol, Crete and Gorizia. Germany gets Austria, Bohemia and Austrian Poland, Romania gets Transylvania

Bulgaria is not going to let this happen.

I need to form a steel wall around the Home Islands to keep all this communism out. At least I have a head start with my fleet

Mkay. We will see what happens. Maybe the reforms will just make Communist and Capitalist nations hate the USSR alike.

Anyway, not sure if I should consider my app accepted or not...

Just give up on Central America and we're fine. We can't really do anything about Canada at this point.
