I wonder what if a portal to OTL opened and what the reaction of the OTL world would be to the madness of the 1960s ?
The Soviets will have some work to do.I wonder what if a portal to OTL opened and what the reaction of the OTL world would be to the madness of the 1960s ?
not well.How are non German citizens of the pakt treated when the go to work in Germany?

1) Yes, as a matter of fact they will be in a stronger position in this world's mid 60s than they were in our own, both internally and externally. Is it likely that they will open up as much as they did? That's up in the air.Can China go Dengist like in OTL and become an economic superpower? They’re in a very good position for it. Germany if it becomes more pragmatic will want to woo China to side with them and Germanys enemies would want to avoid that. The political maneuvering would be very interesting.
Ok but hypothetically what would have been the result if the Ostkrieg went maximally wrong for Nazi Germany and went maximally right for Russia. (Eg; everything that could go wrong for Germany does and everything that could go right for Russia does) What would be the result?
1) Yes, different strategic decisions by the Russian Generals, a more successful initial offensive in Operation Poltava (likely by strengthening the Volkssturm before the war as a PoD), as well as another bold move by the West would make the Germans cut their losses. It's likely Remer would be more willing to trade much of Moscowien in return for the return of the resource-rich Caucasus. But eventually they would come back for the rest.Could the russians kept more territory after the Ostkrieg? If yes how?
Could have germany claim african colonies, maybe taken from france .how would they be administred?
If the napoleonic empire survives,I assume they would adopt a more african identity over time.In the future if the they are strong enough,industrialized would they still claim mainland France? If an oppurtunity arrises (Germany is distracted ,mainland france gains independence etc) would they launch an invasion if they feel they have an advantaje.
Speaking of the Bonapartist regime, how are the French Caribbean, New Caledonia, Reunion, Comoros, and French Polynesia doing ITTL?3) Rhetorically they will always claim France, practically? They will be lucky to retake Northern Africa and it would take fortune to favor the Bonapartes again for them to set foot in Europe again.
Presumably nothing good, even if Italy would have gone down fighting.What if Umberto ruled Italy during Angriff?
1) I think I have answered that one before.What if Iraqi monarchy survived?
What if Arab Federation was created and survived?
What if socialists remained in power in Japan?
What if Umberto ruled Italy during Angriff?
What if the Nazis lost Caucasus in Ostkreig?
What if Israel had multiple nuclear weapons in the start of the Nazi Invasion?
What about Kahane?Anne Frank died in Haifa, that's where she lived and I did subtly imply that the detonation of the bomb was made with her involvement as it was blown up inside an attic.
Begin and much of the Knesset was evacuated to Bersheva when the Nazis closed into Jerusalem, although I would say there were members of the Knesset who stayed behind and refused to leave Jerusalem, which led to the Nazis executing them on the Wall of Wails. Golda Meir and Ben Gurion are among them.
Mosher Dayan remained in Eilat for most of the war as the coordinator of Operation Exodus, securing the rear guard and fighting an uphill battle for the Red Sea against the Luftwaffe and the UAR to keep the refugee ships safe until the Royal Navy arrived. Dayam was also involved in the counter attack which took back Jerusalem.
He sounds like the kind of man who would go down fighting if the Nazis came over to his house. It's possible he could have fled to Bersheva, but I have made no plans for him yet.What about Kahane?
I've always been partial towards him ruling a post-apocalyptic Greater Israel like in For All Time: Well Enough Alone.He sounds like the kind of man who would go down fighting if the Nazis came over to his house. It's possible he could have fled to Bersheva, but I have made no plans for him yet.
I find that the likely reason why Diefenbaker would end up losing a snap election is that the PCs might have been in charge for too long. However, he was a great PM regardless—even in real life. As for Canadian relations with Britain, I think Canadians like the monarchy but can't stand the idea of a dictatorship. Quebec very much hates Britain and the Nazis. They'll likely try to align with Brazil in political ideals, but that would be hard, given the Canadian courts. Also, we could see the Canadians getting their constitution passed early, given how things are. The Canadian Bill of Rights created by Diefenbaker would have also been passed early. There's no question.I was thinking about this last night, and I decided to list each potential Canadian Prime Minster in this timeline after what would have been a significant election loss for the Liberals for losing WW2. These are my honest thoughts; I don't know if this is canon:
William Lyon Mackenzie King 1926-1930, 1935-1945 Liberal Majority government
John Bracken 1945-1953 (retires) Progressive Conservative Majority government
John Diefenbaker 1953-1959 Progressive Conservative Majority then a minority government which loses a confidence vote after the Social Credit withdraw support
Lester B Pearson 1959-present Liberal minority government with the support of the CCF
On one hand, he’d be a saner, if still autocratic, figure than Mao. On the other hand, the Party would take longer to realize no money was being made from Zhu De Thought than Mao Zedong Thought due to it.What if Zhu De took over communist china instead of Mao?
