The Death of Russia - TL

[Ming777]

I do know that. I just felt like explaining why despite the grimness of the TL, the horrors that occurred, that I dont mind some of the more optimistic takes.

We can be realist, but still have some faith that good and hope can endure the worse that humanity can cause

As Admiral Stockdale said,

You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.

Then again, the whole thing is coming to an end anyways.

I agree things still not done until the final chapter

 

[CASSICTOR2]

I think the abbreviation DoR or TDoR may be better, harder to confuse and still useful for shorthand.

I agree with the term of TDOR as it combined my term and Aluma short abbreviation of the story

Russia in Hetalia going to look pretty bad , probably covered in bandages to hide all the scars and in a wheelchair because he so weak.

No you can't make a character with a dead corpse

Considering the TL name I think he would be dead, with cause of death being unspoken in the show(too soon still I think) but canonically it would be him having passed away after fighting two brain tumors

In his place there would be his two siberian sons with the empty crown of the Romanov being where he used to be

*Assuming Hetalia exists ITTL

That or he will be Country version of Guts but replace the Eclipse with 4/10

Honestly most of anime and shows will likely be delayed and never happen because of the '90s dark age

I think that would be the Orthodox Kingdom after the whole ordeal with North Korea and everything else

Basically just PTSD man who deal a lot of pain and suffering after many of his eternal demons destroy him whole as UN try to heal him with his wounds physical and mental

Russia will be just as Depressed character to read about like Guts man I wouldn't even be surprised that TDoR Berserk be heavily inspired by turmoil of Russia

It seems like pop culture is changed in terms of plot and themes, but still mostly arriving on time (for instance the author mentioned Love Hina being a thing). I wouldn't be surprised if Friends still became a pop culture touchstone ITTL for example.

I wouldn't even be surprised that TDoR Berserk be heavily inspired by turmoil of Russia

It already is, Screaming openly has a mention of the 2RCW being a huge source of inspiration.

How pop culture deals with 4/10 will be interesting. 9/11 "only" killed 3,000 people in an isolated area(s), and few people actually thought that, say, their house was in imminent danger of being destroyed.

4/10 on the other hand would have people reacting to a possible full nuclear war. They don't know that the interceptors will work, for instance.

4/10 is basically going to be a apocalyptic event similar to Noah flood or WW2 but Nuclear Hellfire in to booth

I honestly think 4/10 will be THAT Event who is the definitio of all evil alongside with the Holocaust

Especially as it was triggered by an act of nuclear terrorism and involved an act of genocide by the Nashists.

It will basically be the most evilest actions you know of history and will be potrayal as Apocalypse of Literally world threatening scale

 

[TickTock The Witch's Dead]

Anyone wonder how the European Union is developed in this TL? And whether European integration will be more successful?

In many ways, 4/10 would be the darkest day in human history for as long as people will remember it with Barkashov being seen as having a level of evil even Hitler could not achieve.

Probably a lot more widespread and less Eurosceptic in the Post-Russkies war as during 4/10 meaning be more credibility to the European Union than ever

The only day that might Eclipse even 4/10 was the day when the dinosaurs go extinct by a Giant meteor over 65 Million years ago

Fittingly, with its impact on the climate, the whole thing took place 181 years to the day Mt. Tambora's eruption begun.

That also remind me of Tunguska mentor but I realize that 4/10 was basically a what if scenario where Tunguska mentor hit European Russia instead of Siberia
