My first thought is how is this Empire supposed to keep off the Parthians in Babylonia*?
My second is the capital of such an Empire. Why Roma? It's not in a very strategic location, nor is it where you'd expect a great Empire to come from. IOTL it was a fairly the Capital of a relatively small...
It's beautiful:

Hillary Clinton: 50.0%, 269 EVs
Donald Trump: 47.0%, 269 EVs
I won Iowa by only 483 votes. Jill Stein won 11,705 votes. It wasn't called until the game was 100% processed, meaning irl it would be after several...
I think you're underestimating just how anti-USSR the far-right of the U.S was. They probably would sit on the sidelines, but selling to both sides equally is out of the question.
And I would argue the U.S and Germany would have many common interests. They both absolutely want the USSR contained and crushed, most importantly. The Nazis are useful to the Americans as a counterbalance to Britain, who could get in the way of their Imperialistic* (influence/control over much...
Thing is, a Fascist U.S would be more concerned with race, religion and order than more traditional fascist ideals like social Darwinism. Of course they'll still be concerned with the latter, but not enough to want to turn against a fellow "Nordic", "Protestant" civilisation. Also, realpolitik...
Up to and even after the annexation of Czechoslovakia by Germany, Britain's policy was to try to play Germany and the USSR off against each other, with Hitler being considered the lesser evil. They were willing to let Hitler expand if he could be a counterweight to Stalin. To have such a policy...
It certainly can. I myself am a non-interventionist. Many Americans of the time were committed isolationists, which is what the far right used to gain votes.
However, the far right itself didn't generally care about this principle, unless it helped them get ahead.
To all this discussion of how a fascist America would effect Germany v.s the USSR, I just have one thing to add: Britain's not gonna be in this thing forever. OTL was hard on Britain with American support. Without it, and with America cozying up to the Nazis, Britain will simply have to throw in...
Oh please. That's like saying segregationists were for States Rights for the principle of the thing.
The American far-sighted was non-interventionist because they didn't want to intervene against Nazi Germany, whom they adored, or for the Soviet Union, whom they despised.
If there's any sort...
A Fascist-ish (do not expect a carbon copy of Italy, Germany, or Japan. Rather, expect a nationalistic, racist, nativist, pro-business conglomerate.) U.S would be mostly concerned with internal affairs rather than expansion. At the very least we'd see promotion of the KKK and other groups. At...
Komnenoi Empire Achievement finally achieved. It only took me like 3 dozen tries.:p
What I learned from this is to never give up. Qara Qoyunlu declared war on me in 1450- I managed to beat them with Georgia's help thanks to smart Mountain defense. 30 years later, the Ottomans took many of my...
After being reduced to just my Circassian provinces by a joint Ottoman-Crimean invasion in 1470, this felt sooooo good.
I've finally got a Trebizond game that is going well. It's just after 1700 now, and I've eaten much of the Steppes and the Middle East, as well as more from the Ottomans. I...
