Popping in for a quick "This TL is almost but not quite dead" post.
One sincere question, considering Greece's forced neutrality, and Turkey's legal alliance with GB while trading, will we see an attempt to gain control of the straits, through the annexation of those areas to Greece?
Edit: if only because puppet states seem a weberian thing to do.
Good question! It's not that likely within this phase of the war as the Axis powers are wary of upsetting the careful peace around in the Bosporus and Italy is very slowly turning towards the Western Allies under the nose of the Germans, but the strategic value of the straits is obviously an important concern.
Just sped read through this. Awesome TL!
Two questions. Will we get more details on how the Asia-Pacific war goes? The two event by date timelines describing the war was a cool way to do it.
Also, how is France? Is Petain still in power by January 1st 1946?
Thanks!
Sadly, it was too much work to keep up, but there will be a summary of the Asia-Pacific War and how it affects this theatre of the German-Soviet wars in the next part. Although the initial goodwill has begun to dry up, France is still taking an isolationist stance following his polling results in 1944.
I've been too busy with work in this part of the year for consistent updates (and I've become more reluctant over time to elaborate upon an "Axis Victory" scenario given how political climates have changed from 2014 to now, but that's another issue entirely) but I haven't much on till I begin studies again this autumn. I'm trying to see if I can get an update out on time for
VE Day (8th May), but no promises.
