Oh no, but that would make sense so I really hope those French Socialists stop yelling at each other and try to win an election

[1] The population is certainly off.

[3] The railroad gauge of France should be something easy to find out. I found the answer in one simple internet search.

Official Name of the Nation: German Empire/Deutsches Kaiserreich
Shortened Name: German/Deutschland
Head of State: Kaiser Wilhelm III
Head of Goverment: Theobald von Bethmann-Hollweg
Government Type: Semi-Constitutional Monarchy
Territorial Claim: IRL German Empire and her colonies.
Alliances the Nation is in: Central Powers
Population: 67 million (Mainland)
National Language(s): German
Lingua Franca(s): German, Polish, various native languages in colonies.
GDP: 237,332 Million (1990 International Dollars)
GDP Per Capita: 3,648 (1990 International Dollars)
Currency: Papiermark
Railroad Gauge: 1,435 mm or 4 ft 8 1⁄2 in
Military Size: Army: 3,800,000 Troops
Conscription (if so, mention for how long): Yes, 2 years starting at 20 years old.
Major differences between this timeline's nation and the in real life nation (explain said differences in the history section):
The only main difference is that Kasier Wilhelm II dies in 1902 from a severe pneumonia leaving Wilhelm III to take his place as Kaiser thus eliminating the harsh anti-British stance of the German Empire.
History:
The History of Germany is the same up until, in this timeline, Kaiser Wilhelm II passes away from severe pneumonia contracted while on a hunting trip leaving his son to become Kaiser Wilhelm III. Wilhelm III did not hold the same personal hatred for the British as his father had so instead embarks on a more Bismarckian foreign policy growing ties with both the British and Russian Empires while still maintaining a military buildup and advancement program.
Issues Plaguing the Nation (3-5 Minimum):
Undermined The Empire contains many minorities such as the Poles and French which leaves certain regions more susceptible to partisan activities and subversion by foreign powers.
Culture While not a massive difference between the individual Kingdoms and subdivisions of Germany, some differences and slightly different cultures do exist that make keeping perfect cultural unity slightly harder. However this is more a nuisance than a severe threat to the Empire.
Democracy While small, there are factions inside the Empire that push for either greater or even complete democracy in the Empire. The main group, Deutscher Demokratiebund, wants to see universal male suffrage for those 20 and up.

It all looks good but the military size. Yes, Germany had a huge military, but even Russia didn't have that large a standing army during peacetime. Even with conscription, I'd say 1.5 million is a more logical size unless the Germany army is just a large paper tiger that is underfunded (which I highly doubt).

It wouldn't be possible. Though you could build a tunnel from Singapore to Sumatra.
