central powers victory

For me, the first world war is more interesting than the second. Now, don't get me wrong; WWII is still utterly fascinating. I especially love the technology, from the A-Bomb to the B-29 to the FG-42 and plenty more. But when reading about WWII, I always felt like the Axis were on borrowed time...

Everybody knows about the Cyrillic script, the script used by the Orthodox Slavs in Eastern Europe, but few know that its position, although quite stable in the Balkans, was not as stable in... Russia? To illustrate the point I'll be making, I am going to get a generic central powers victory...

I’m working on a TL where the entire world becomes communist by the mid-20th Century. Similarly to Reds, its POD is William McKinley survives his assassination (here, the assassination still happens, but Dr. Roswell Park is able to save McKinley’s life) - preventing the Progressive Era reforms...

Before World War 1, Germany had amassed the third largest colonial empire in the world, second only to Britain and France. However, these were mostly lost by 1915, although Paul von Lettow-Vorbek managed to cause significant trouble for the British and French in German East Africa. So my...

As anyone who’s been involved in alternate history or counterfactual history - or even just history in general - most people will agree that Nazi Germany remains one of the most vile, bigoted, repressive and evil regimes in human history. Had they somehow won World War II, then they would have...

If the Central Powers won WW1, would France devolve into civil war? I've been wondering if the mutinies in the French military during 1917-early 1918 could cause a civil war. If so, who would try to take power? Would the German Empire create a puppet provisional government, or will Socialists or...

Today, I read that a German victory in WW1 by a succesfull Westfeldzug in 1914 or a East First strategy could result in a situation like the Napoleonic Wars, where Britain every time built new coalitions against France (ITTL Germany). Is this plausible?

What would be the countries they split into, how much longer will they last before falling apart, what would the borders look like, What impact would this have on the rest of the world?

In a CP victory scenario, inwhich Luxembourg joins the German Empire as a new member state, how likely could it be that Prussia cedes the Britburg-Prüm region? Most of the area was historically Luxembourgish, and the cession would not only compensate for Luxembourg's loss of sovereignty, but it...

What if Germany won World War I in 1917-1918 and the White Army subsequently won the Russian Civil War against the Bolsheviks? Of course the Whites would have been extremely unhappy at the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, but having just come out of a devastating Civil War to defeat the Bolsheviks, I...

WW1 is an incredibly fascinating time period, as it was seemingly a more even conflict that could have gone either way that had long lasting consequences. However, I’ve never been able to find any good PODs that give you a Central Powers victory. What are some of the most plausible PODs that...

What would happen to South Africa if Germany won World War I? Would it have less British influence and more German or even Dutch influence, and become a sort of new Boer Republic or would the history of South Africa be totally similar as in OTL? How would the relations between SA and The...

What if The Netherlands joined the Central Powers? Let’s assume a naval incident or something else, and as a result, The Netherlands join the Central Powers. Let’s say that in this TL Germany plays their ‘old strategy’ so focuses on Russia first, but Britain still join the war. Last but not...

Let's say that the Central Powers manage to win WWI, but the Ottoman's war with Britain weakens them where they can't hold Arabia after a few years. Blaming the Germans and Austrians for not doing enough to help their empire, the Ottomans eventually adopt a fascist-style government and join the...
