"Der Stahlführer und der Prinzessin"
Minor grammar nitpick: it would be "Der Stahlführer und die Prinzessin".
"Der Stahlführer und der Prinzessin"
Yes, die!Minor grammar nitpick: it would be "Der Stahlführer und die Prinzessin".
You do know the book he wrote, do you? Pierce is American Hitler, Goebbels and Himmler combined.Oh he's a small fish, Carto is the one you should worry about, his image is far more "pallable" to the average American than Pierce's.
That's the... problem, he is far too radical to ever grow beyond the extremism. Carto, who claims to be a "Jeffersonian Populist" is one who uses the Star Spangled Banner, not the Swastika.You do know the book he wrote, do you? Pierce is American Hitler, Goebbels and Himmler combined.
I want to see the Napoleon chapter first.Next chapter plans, in no particular order:
"The People of the United States v Huey P. Long Jr."
Huey Long faces a final battle for his legacy as the State turns against him, who will get to him first: Goldwater or his Cancer?
"In the Defense of Liberty"
The Struggle of Barry Goldwater against the Establishment, will he use the powers he so criticized for his cause?
"Blood, Petrol and Steel"
The Age of Strife continues in Eurasia as the Syrians and Iranians set their sights on the world's lifeline in the Gulf.
"Der Stahlführer und die Prinzessin"
Otto Remer struggles to make the Reich recover after a disastrous decade, will he realize the snake about to bite him?
"Long Live the King"
The Mountbatten regime reaches it's critical stage as the British people begin to question how much King Edward truly cares about them.
"Le Chant du Départ"
The Mediterranean is set aflame in a religious struggle while Emperor Napoleon VI seeks to emulate his famed predecessor.
"Festung Europa"
As the Reich weakens, the Pakt reveals itself to be not as united as Germania wanted to show, will the illusion of European Unity survive this decade?
"Mister U. S. A."
President Goldwater begins to wonder how much he can trust his own Administration as the Crisis worsens and Congress prepares an Impeachment.
"Mate el Gringo!"
In Mexico, the American Forces face a relentless enemy, with General Maxwell now in command and having to deal with the dilema given to him by the White House.
I’d be interested in seeing more from Germany’s satellites, on that end.Next chapter plans, in no particular order:

According to these posts by @Sarthak, apparently, one of the daughters of the Ottoman Sultan was going to take the office had the male Ottomans been wiped out between 1807-1808:As much of a sweet justice that would be, can a woman become Caliph in Islam? And I am not quite sure how seriously the claim of the Ottomans would be taken in the Arab World.
Are the offices of Ottoman Sultan and Caliph of Islam under the same laws?According to these posts by @Sarthak, apparently, one of the daughters of the Ottoman Sultan was going to take the office had the male Ottomans been wiped out between 1807-1808:

Ottoman collapse 1808: what new states are created?
If the Ottomans collapse independent of any outside power (at least mostly) what ensues would be the rat race of the century. I see the Russians, Austrians, and French having the biggest degree of involvement; The Russians would especially vie for Constantinople and likely work with the...www.alternatehistory.com
If we are talking theologically then Islamic teachings can be interpreted in a manner that Men and Women are equal and thus a woman is capable as a Caliph as they would no doubt have the support from male members of the Shura for the roles they supposedly cannot perform by virtue of being a woman. Islamic Succession on her Brother's Death would make her the rightful Claimant to the throne. Her brother dies in 1969 so..As much of a sweet justice that would be, can a woman become Caliph in Islam?
The Arabs like the Syrians and and also the Iranians will have a hard time justifying why a woman cannot be a Caliph. Of course "woman" would be the usual answer and some glorification of the Arab revolt and explaining why they overthrew the very same people in Jordan and Iraq. So their position would be full of contradictions and they are no Goebbels. The Shias in Iraq might be more receptive to the idea. Given that they are under Damascus's occupation and they curiously did not revolt earlier. The Saudis given what happened to the Hashemites might acquiesce to it and double down on their role as the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques on the Caliph's behalf. Islam being their source of legitimacy against the ideals of Damascus.And I am not quite sure how seriously the claim of the Ottomans would be taken in the Arab World.
Id like to see the Huey vs US chapter first. Mostly for how that could impact Long's party as a whole plus how much of a fight Long could put up here. As for the others, i'd like to see Festung Europa next given how little we've focused on Germany's sattelites outside of France and Italy. And i'd better hope Goldwater ends up being atleast marginally better than Smith (which given what is said here that is less likely than it should be)Next chapter plans, in no particular order:

No American involvement in Europe, the big enemy of the Cold War and McCarthyism is Nazism. Even if he still has some similar ideas, he was influenced to go into Nazism through the HUAC. McCarthy here was more prominent and even a legitimate candidate, Rockwell admired him and that led him to detest Nazism as an Enemy of America despite similar beliefs.Wonder why Rockwell didnt keep to his otl path..
White Superiority (more in line with Hess' idea of Anglo-Saxon + Germanic supremacy), American Nationalist, Totalitarian sympathies, Anti-Semitism, Anti-Civil Rights, Anti-Communism and Segregationism.How simmilar?
Thats just Wilis Carto.White Superiority (more in line with Hess' idea of Anglo-Saxon + Germanic supremacy), American Nationalist, Totalitarian sympathies, Anti-Semitism, Anti-Civil Rights, Anti-Communism and Segregationism.
Of course the positions are not as radical as in OTL, he behaves himself as a respectable politician and avoids the more vulgar declarations he made IOTL. He also supports Free Enterprise, Anti-Longism, an aggressive foreign policy and the use of Authoritarian tools made by the Smith Administration like the ASA.
There are differences, Carto is a Populist and a Long supporter, he wants to keep the welfare state and opposes large business here. Meanwhile, Rockwell believes in Goldwater's radical believes in fully releasing the large companies of it's limitations and dismantling the Welfare State. That represents one of the main differences between the Jeffersonians/Right-Populists and the Sons of Liberty/Society for the Defense of Liberty. Plus the latter is far less outspokenly racist than the former.Thats just Wilis Carto.
