Adolf Hitler came from Munich to London by Plane with Joseph Goebbels, Hermann Göring and Hanna Reitsch.
They arrived in a military air filled and droved thought the streets of London where people were cheering them on, and eventually reached Sir Oswald Mosley near the Big Ben.

''Guten tag, it is good to see you Sir Oswald !''

"Guten tag, Mr Hitler, Mr Göring, Mr Goebbels and Miss Reitsch, Welcome to London. I hope your visit will be a relaxing, yet important one." Mosley welcomes his guests before leading them inside, "As you can see, you are quite a well known face around here. We British believe the treaties were too harsh and that you are a hero to the German peoples." He lead him to the house of commons, who all stood up upon the arrival of the group of people.


''It certainly will be important, hello my comrades it is good to see some friendly people around here'' Hitler and his colleague took a seat.
''Now lets get to business, we are not planning any wars despite the amounts of propaganda saying we will, however their are actions against Fascisms and Nationalism-Socialism in the international community which are worrying, I am proposing and Alliance called the Axis to protect our nations''

9th March 1936

Pavel Novotný was overseeing the construction of the so-called "Heavy Elements." The first few of what was to be very many such elements.

Magnificent things. Boxes of concrete hidden behind mounds of dirt covered the entire Silesian frontier. Nobody was going to roll over this line anytime soon. That was true even of the Polish Army, should they come knocking. The fifty-thousand strong German Army wouldn't so much as stand a chance.

Of course, there were chronic budget problems to worry about. The State declared that this section of the border was the most critical and so this section of the border was prioritized for the heavy elements.

If only Beneš would approve more funds! Within a year, they could make the entire German border (and the Hungarian one too!) completely impenetrable.

The clock sounded. Time for lunch break, it seemed. The workmen came trudging back. Pavel began to hand out food packets. Delicious things they must be, given the way the workmen hungrily devoured the contents of the packages.

Alas, Beneš and his administration counted money like a miser. Doling out just enough to keep the constructions from outright stopping. Could he not understand that, after Hitler's reckless abandonment of the Versailles Treaty and his illegal rearmament of the Rhineland, that there was nothing, absolutely nothing, left to stop Hitler from recreating the massive two million men strong army of the Second Reich?

With the formation of the London-Berlin Axis the British have been supplying resources to help Germany rebuild its army and navy so it can defend itself from the threat of communism in the world. But Mosley has been thinking for a third ally, and italy seems like a solid choice, but so does Qing, they have a long term hate for the Communists in Russia and elsewhere in the world. They would also provide a front against the Royalists in India.

Qing would help us in Asia, but there could be a possibility of Japan.
They both have a strategic position in Asia against Russia and both are Rich will resources.

French general election results:

The center left-radical left alliance : 51%
The center-right alliance : 48%
Other : 1%

Despite the claims of the left alliance that they would win over 60% of the vote and prove that they had the mandate of the people, the alliance barely clung on to power. However, realizing that both alliances shared common goals and fears in international politics, a grand coalition was suggested by the center right alliance. After much discussion and both sides agreeing to give concessions, the grand right-left coalition as formed, with the incumbent prime minister keeping his post and the leader of the center right alliance becoming the deputy prime minister

Canadian Parliament:
Prime Minister Harris was extremely against Britain's decision to ally Germany. The Prime Minister was a Jew himself and saw Germany as a threat to the World. Although he had a desire to leave the commonwealth he had to try and convince Britain that Germany can not be trusted. He wrote to the British Parliament.

To: British Parliament
From: Canadian Parliament
Germany is imprisoning Jews in their countries. I can not believe that you are willing to ally them for their actions. I see Fascism as a threat. And I am willing to leave the Commonwealth if I see Fascism in the CommonWealth. I want you to stop supplying the Germans. Consequences will be harsh for Britain if our demands are not met. And We do not wish to leave the Commonwealth for the sake of the world. But we are leaving for the sake of Fascism. I would like you to reconsider Germany.

Prague, Bohemia, Czechoslovak Republic
19th April 1936

"Division in the British Commonwealth, it looks like," mentioned President Beneš.

"Indeed. This... may not be to our benefit," replied his Prime Minister.

"Oh, I think otherwise. I think it's an excellent idea for us to keep the democratic Commonwealth states from fascist British influence," retorted Beneš.

"Hmm... why, yes. So it is. I shall see to it," replied his Prime Minister, summoning the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

They would try hard in lobbying. Complex diplomatic maneuvers, for one purpose: complete dissolution of the British Commonwealth.

Hitler is now visiting Koenigsberg to see how the army is handling and to raise moral in the Prussia region he has made a speech.
''The once mighty Prussia has been smashed and obliterated and then destroyed in the Weimar Republic for long enough, the Third Reich will prove the willingness and prosperity of our people''

People rejoiced in the sight of Hitler and his brown company and cheered them on.

Dear Abdullah I of the United Arab Federation,
Palestine is a land of our Empire, and your statement of 'Arabs deserved to be ruled by Arabs and Turks deserved to be ruled by Turks' is insulting to us. That statement offends the empire in itself. That statement is you asking us to give up all our lands expect anatolia. Letting our Empire collapse. The Price of Palestine is 250 billion. but weather I will expect is a different matter.

You are a Turk, Arabs are not Turkish, therefore Palestine isn't a true land of the Ottomans, we are willing to buy the Holy Land from you, but $250 billion is an unreasonable amount.

Drottningholm Palace, Stockholm, Sweden
The conservative supporters were cheering outside of the royal palace. King Gustav V greeted them on a balcony, looking down on the large gardens outside. He was in his late 70s, but still a healthy man. He was tall, well-dressed and his face had his very known mustache.

"Great members and supporters of the right, center-right and liberal parties. We stand here today, awaiting the election that will stand in september this year. For 4 years, we have had a social-democratic government with incapability to rule, as prime minister Hansson focuses his governing of legislating laws that moves us in a terrible direction. If we let them win another time, the filthy communists will overrun us and we will soon be a dictatorship of oppression like soviet. I have brought Mr. Pehrsson Bramstorp here, leader of the farmers league whom have decided to agree on an election campaign that will invest in industry, farming and welfare, something the socialists don't know anything about. I say that we vote on this man, and the fellow men of the other two parties here" He moved his hand over to the representatives from the liberals and the center right "To once again see this great nation be what it once was. I, as king support them, and you should too"

The crowd cheered.
