Nations

 * UOF_Flag.png United Orion Federation- The United Orion Federation is the 3rd major Superpower in the Milky Way Galaxy. The Federation is decended from the American government and colonists who settled the New Plymoth system. The Americans were the first in the 2100s to establish interstellar colonies. The UOF is a democratic nation mainly dominated by either the Federalist or the Progressive Parties. the Federation army stands at a small 10 billion men, but its navy is tied with that of Bismarck, numbering some 4 million combat vessels docked in the Space Yards in orbit of its planets. The UOF is led by Joe Armstrong of the Federalist Party, who was elected president 2 years before the beginning of the 1st Galactic War in the first of his 5 year term (the president has a limit of 4 terms). The UOF is by far the most tolerant of the superpowers of its minorities. All Humans under its banner are created equal, meanwhile Alien species, are treated as second class citizens, due have freedoms and are always corrected on their English. As it names points out, the Federation is located in the Orion arm, and the Federations claims all of it. Federation allies also stretch into the neighboring Sagittarius and Perseus arms.

Fight for your Right


It is the year 2348, the Fourth World War rages, and has done so for the past 50 years. There are 3 alliances that have over the time effetely morphed themselves into superpowers. Yet this isn't the world George Orwell had quite predicted. There is still freedom in all society's, and all know one another. The problem lies with the propaganda and the ideas for billions of people to follow.


 * Flag_of_the_United_Nations.svg: The Human Concordate is a idealistic union of all the "Normal" nations who did not chose at the time of the late 2020s-early 2080s to follow the path of Gene Splicing, and modification technologically of the human body if not for untreatable wounds. The Alliances was mainly formed by President Devon Alley of the United States and Prime Minister Godfrey McAlister of the United Kingdom in 2043. The Concord took on many more members following the end of the Mexican Civil War (2006-2039). After one of President Alleys most controversial decisions was the funding of large scale industrial projects in Outer Space leading to the Third Space Race ever since the Mars Landing of 2032 which the 88 Year Old Donald Trump at the time called his "Greatest Success." The Concord has placed great emphasis on its strategy, using brute force with rugged technology, they are the only faction to still have their infantry carry rifles that use bullets. On the battlefield the average expectancy for a soldier is one week depending on the region, if you say on the Lusitanian Front, it can be as low as 15 minutes. Concord troops despite their weakness compared to the mechanized hover and plasma armies of the PCF and the cyborg, genetically modified soldiers of the League. Concord vehicles are equipped with the finest ballistics, missile, and anti-missile technology. Depending on the time many of their tanks, assault bots, and artillery vehicles can be quipped with shields, another barrel, or even an anti-air rocket launcher.

Ups and Downs
In 1862, a quick Confederate capture of Union artillery in the fields of Maryland and subsequent usage of them behind Union lines caused the destruction of the Army of the Potomac. Confederate forces occupied Washington and pushed on Baltimore. Throughout the rest of 1862 and 1863 the Confederates truly occupied Maryland chasing refugees to Pennsylvania. Where Union troops met the CSA on a head long advance in Central Virginia at Gettysburg. The battle there was fought to a stalemate. The first form of Trench Warfare was seen. A grinding stalemate in the East saw Confederate forces, angered by the loss of Confederate "Arizona", invaded Kentucky and grabbed it from General Ulysses S. Grant who committed suicide after a drunken rage. His second in command William T. Sherman quickly organized a brilliant defense of Ohio. By The Spring of 1864 both sides had fought each other to a standstill. Only a peace negotiated by the British in the Treaty of Halifax ended the conflict with a Confederate Victory. The later part of the 1860s saw the Democrats sweep into office. Lincoln, discruntled formed a small socialist party in Syracuse which would effectivly become a major 3rd Party (but wouldn't stop Joe Franklin in the 30s). Whigs and Radical Liberals filled the Democrats and Republicans in the south. The Whigs under the Presidents, Davis, Lee, and Longstreet were able to maintain high power until Fitzhugh Lee of the Radical Liberals came to power in the 1880s.

The USA and CSA came to head in 1884 with another war known as the Sonoran War. The US bitterly lost this and the Confederates retained their territories in Baja, Sonora, and Chihuahua yet thanks to Britain outlawed slavery. The US adopted the "Prussian Way" of Germany. The CSA quickly gained support from Britain and Napoleon III or France. The arms race continued into the 1900s. The Spanish-American War saw Puerto Rico and the Philippines transfered to the US. Cuba was already in Confederate hands. Aircraft technology advanced at a quicker rate post-1903. The spark came in the Balkans where the Great War flamed out.

The Confederates used their numbers advantage to quickly overrun Maryland while mainting large defensive positions in Sequoyah and Texas. The US used their tactical genious now and need in the Midwest to attack Kentucky.

Red Germany, Black Russia
The Great War had lasted 6 years. The ignorance of General Pershing and President Wilson allowed the Germans to push to the outskirts of Paris. It took from September 1918 to March 1920 to defeat Germany. The Kaiser managed to stay in power longer but was shot by a radical anarchist in February 1920. A young man named Adolf Hitler is wounded and later leads a minor Austrian based resistance group fighting against Communist Germany. When Baron Ungern-Sternberg died in 1935, he gave the Russian position to Konstantin Rodzaevsky who turned Russia into a fascist state. Russia began to become aggressive with huge industrialization by 1938 and large farm production. Russia became the main aggressor and faced acts of discontent in Germany, Britain, and France.

Columbia vs Britannia


The British victory at Gallipoli was to show the greatness of the British Empire. Allied forces after intense air reconnaissance the British and ANZAC forces landed and took Turkish positions avoiding a large slaughter. British artillery and battleships then bombarded Ottoman gun emplacements and secured sea lines linking the mines together. A month into the attack, Australian soldiers raised the Aussie flag over one of the minarets of Istanbul which is renamed to Constantinople. The Greek government declares war on the Central Powers forcing a Bulgarian entry into the Central Powers side. By 1916 the Germans gradually receded on the western front. The introduction of tanks and the huge success at the Somme leading to the capture of Cambrai and Ypres. Even with British help the starvation and large losses lead to the Russian Revolution. By mid-1917 Allied Forces using tank and combined assault tactics swept into the Rhineland. While still slogged with large amounts of French casualties and some from Britain herself. Unrestricted Submarine Warfare was massive and brought the United States into the conflict. The Germany surrendered by the first US soldiers on the front. So almost the entire American army was shipped to Russia to fight the Bolshevik Revolution.



The Russian Civil War lasted a little under two years. By early 1919 the reds with the massive weight of the American army and other allied forces. Britain by the Russian Civil Wars end in 1920 emerges as the worlds strongest nation. Its armored, naval, and aerial fleets are the strongest in the world. Britain increasingly helps out its ally Greece and supports them in their war against Turkey. Most of Western Anatolia is annexed into Greece by 1922. Germany meanwhile is recuperating, not having o pay as much reparations but still sees the rise of the NSDAP. Germany maintains more militarism than fascist.

1905 Success


The Russian Revolution was an armed uprising that had resulted in the establishment of various Soviets. Made up of Radical "Bolsheviks" who launched a armed revolution with several groups of veterans from the Japanese conflict. The massed uprising by the Bolshevik communists overthrowing the Czar lead to armed resistance by many groups in St. Petersburg and quickly threw the city into chaos. Other Bolshevik risings occurred in Siberia and to the South in Moscow, Tsaritsyn, and Kiev.

The Great Patriotic War
In 1881 the Russian Empire was rising. A growing power and ever looking to expand either west or south, it was ruled by the aristocracy. Germany was also growing, the most powerful nation on the continent (Britain was but cared little to entangle itself in Europe proper). An anarcho-communist tied to the local socialists in St. Petersburg assassinated Czar Alexander II and with careful planning say mass peasant and socialist uprisings across the Empire. Though the army and the fearless Cossacks were loyal to the Czarist forces, the "Whites" fell into in fighting after the first year of the Civil War. Many supporters of Alexander III began to fight Count Iosif Gurko and his assailant Count Mikhail Loris-Melikov. Germany in 1883 militarily intervened in the conflict by sending troops into "German areas", notably the Baltic States, Finland, and Poland. The "Red Army" had gained enough support that by the start of 1884, it had control of most of Western Russia, and settled an agreement with the Kaiser that Germany could occupy the western Breakaway territories (for many Russians this was the "stab in the back" that would lead to the First Great War). Another 3 years it took for the Whites to be driven out of Siberia. Many Whites became settlers in the US territory of Alaska, fled to China, Japan, the Ottoman Empire, and even the Balkan states.

The Soviet Union was announced to the world on May 1st 1888. The Union was run as a representative federation where a representative was elected form a certain area who would appeal that area in the Politburo which would influence the decisions of the Grand Soviet of different ministers who in tern elect a General Secretary to either do what the Grand Soviet has concluded to or what they themselves are interested in. The first General Secretary was Vladimir Ulyanov, commonly known as Lenin. The USSR rebuilt its ruined cities and regrew its burned fields. The red bloc became a prime example under Social Democratic tendencies. What plagued the Union were the Cossacks. Raiding from outposts across Siberia and the Southern Steppe they destroyed pillaged and looted villages and towns. Soviet commissars into the 1890s and 1900s attempted to pacify their homelands to no avail. The war against the Cossacks would rage for decades.

The Europeans never really paid attention to Russia until the reds actually started to win. France, the Ottomans, and Austria began pouring funds and arms into the Whites (much of these would go to the Cossacks later).

In the 1890s the USSR began rearming and industrializing. Public works programs under Lev Kamanev began to construct railways and city going Trolly's. Construction of factories in Nikolaigrad (named after the assassin of Alexander II), Moscow, and Volgograd. The Red army still stood at some 400,000 active soldiers placed upon the Chinese and European borders.

The United States had also been experiencing major growth. In 1896 the Dominion of Canada effectively began to move into the American sphere. Canadians in the Labour and Liberal Conservative parties were getting tired of Canadian men dying in far flung places the Pacific and Africa in colonial wars. Radical Wilfried Lauer effectively signed over Canadian economic freedom to the US and its corporations in 1898. The same year, the US won Cuba, the Philippines, Guam, and and Puerto Rico from Spain. The US continued increasing their relationship with Canada by selling left over weapons to the Canadian army. 1902 was the last straw the Boer War effectively lead Canada to declare independence. Radical veterans supported by the PM "nationalized" British forts and Naval Bases and had occupied "the Sovereign Canadian Territory of Newfoundland". Canada would be annexed into the United States in 1905 after President Roosevelt brokered a deal between the two. Roosevelt's Big Stick Policy extended into Latin America with US military interventions as occupations of Haiti, Nicaragua, Tabasco in Mexico, and Panama. The Jewel and Crown of the US in Latin America was the Panama Canal. The US would finish this project in the record time of 5 years by 1910. Continued US intervention in far flung places such as Venezuela and propping up tin hat dictators in Argentina and Bolivia.

Japan meanwhile had annexed Korea in 1894, and after the bloody Boxer War created puppet regimes in Manchuria, and the southern Chinese provinces. The Japanese East Asian Economic Sphere dominated the Mainland of Asia causing great tension with the USSR.

Japan in a stunning move in 1913 occupied French Indochina after a small rebellion in 1911 turned into a full scale war with the rebels receiving arms from the Soviets. Japan had also annexed Siam in another move in early 1914 incorporating it into Greater East Asia.

Nazi Austria
It was the Austrian armies decision in February of 1914 to accept a young Adolf Hitler into the armed forces of the Empire. The Great War went as normal. Hitler served in the first waves crossing into Serbia. He then proceeded to hate the Austrian high command for its incompetence. Hitler would serve in the later stages of 1915 in southern Serbia and Albania. In 1916 Hitler was transfered to the Eastern Front where somehow he met the Croatian soldier Jozef Tito and served together. In late 1917 Hitler was glorious. He had been raised to the rank of Seargent and had received two Medals of Bravery. Hitler beleive by 1918 Russia would be out of the war, and he'd be on his way to serve with Rommel in Italy. It came. He was transferred following Brest-Litovsk to Italy. Hitler ranked up on the march to Venice but was liek the rest of the Central Powers army forced to retreat into Austrian territory. In November, 1918 Austria was exhasted, and had surrender. Hitler was infuriated and demanded to be transferrred to the Western Front, it was denied.

Hitler found himself one of a few disguntled veterans who waddeled around in the country after the Great War. Hitler decame the leader of the NSOAP or the Nasop Party. In 1934 following the short Austrian Civil War, Hitler and the Nasop's came to power. The NSOAP's paramilitary forces, the Fatherland Front and the Brownshirts (parralleling Italys Blackshirts) patrolled the streets of the country. Hitler began to rebuild Austrian industry and its armed forces. Hitler also had begun supporting Yugoslav Fascist, his friend Jozef Tito. In Late 1935, a referendum was held and Austria, under the guides it would lose this, invaded Hungary to secure the country. In Croatia, Tito's fascist had been fighting a hard guerilla war against the government and king. Austria was the solution. It moved troops into Slovenia and had declared the recognition of Tito's government. A quick treaty of Venice solidified Austrian control over Slovenia, Croatia, and part of Bosnia into the "Greater Austrian Reich" Hitler had established. Austrian nationals had also invaded Lichtenstein and declared it part of Austria. In Mid-1936 Austria invaded the rump Yugoslav state and absorbed it into the Reich. the royal family was kicked to Greece. Many Austrian and German Jewish scientists fled from Hitlers greater reich to America and Britain. In late 1936 Hitler had another dream, Czechoslovakia. He had ruthlessly in Late September already began funding a guerilla pro-Nasop German national movement. He also began funding Slovakian fascists. In 1937 the pressure was too great and with the Entente looking on, Hitler invaded and annexed Czechoslovakia.

The next target was Romania. Hitlers Hungarian NSOAP members demanded the Hungarian minority in Romania be handed back. The allies were cautious in mid-1937.They really couldn't do anything. Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain declared Britains neutrality and demanded in order to preserve peace Romania hand over the Transylvanian panhandle to Austria. They complied and Germany took control of the region. Then a month later in August Austria overran the whole country and annexed it. Hitler moved on Germany making ever more present demands against the weak nation. Silesia and Bavaria along with Saxony were seceded to Austria. Hitler began his Anschluss of Germany. Japan meanwhile had invaded China.



Germany was later annexed by February 1939. With Austria in a firm position now to wreck havoc. And with allied volunteers still duking it out in Spain, the world was ready for war as the Allies promised the next victim to Hitler's aggression was to be defended.

Fly Me to the Moon
The world and humanity has suffered. Ever since the Martian Invasion of 1899 the Human race has had a slue of incidents which threatened the entire species. The world in 1900 after the First War of the Worlds was rebuilding. The US managed to manage to stay unscaved despite many West Coast and Eastern Seaboard cities being heavily damaged. Canada was not even hit at all unless you count the burning of southern Ontario. South America was almost the most powerful but failed to take advantage of its position. Africa was unable to throw off their colonizers and soon became a large sources of resources for the Europeans to rebuild. By 1913 the Martians returned but Humanity was better prepared. it had developed airships and tanks capable of dealing with Martian tripods. The Martians however annihilated large parts of Germany and Austria. The Great Martian War as it was called lasted till 1917. The US maintained its neutrality until 1916 after Martian "krakens" attacked and destroyed the USS West Virginia. Millions were killed on the frontline which was dug throughout Central and Western Europe. German and French scientists developed toxins that were able to seep through the Martian metal and kill the crew inside. Of coarse these toxins utilized germs, cold, flu, runny nose, chicken pox. By the end of the war the British Empire was the first to conceive the idea of nuclear weapons. In 1918 the British began to develop the bomb. However Russia began to secure its influence, and formed the Moscow Pact.

The Russians had emerged one of the most powerful after the Great Martian War. It had essentially puppeted 70% of the old Austrian Empire and the entirety of the Balkans. The US established the Washington Concordate and had established the entirety of the Americas (besides Canada and whatever colonial holdovers remain) into a defensive pact in 1922 with the Commonwealth of Nations, a British run orginization made up of its Dominions with the addition of Portugal and Belgium. Britain and the remaning major powers began throwing funds into a naval space project. Project: Churchill in Britain, Project: Verne in the US, and Project: Basil in Russia. If anything the rush for nuclear technology was also takign on a major rush. Though humanity in the years after the war was united against outside threats, they still could boil over into war. Russia began to simmer revolt within the crumbling Ottoman Empire and in 1925 full scale war broke out between Russia and the Ottomans. The world was shocked. The war was nothing less but a proving ground for new technology. Tanks, walkers, airships, rapid fire weapons were all proven to maximum efficency.

In 1929 Britain announced that from Georgetown, British Guiana, they had launched the HMS Curious into the stars. A modified destroyer with plasma rockets and oxygen reproducers took pictures of the Earth and the Moon. The US confirmed the launch of the USS Dewey from Guantanemo Bay, Cuba.

San Juan's Curse
The Spanish American War claimed the life of a famous man.

Gomberg's World



 * US_flag_with_80_stars_by_BF1395.svg - United States of America
 * The US after the implementation of the Gomberg Plan by President Truman following the subsequent end of WWII in 1944 drastically swathe reshaping of the US. Many nations accepted the Gomberg Plan like America's puppets, Holland, Luxembourg, Belgium, and eagerly the Soviet Union. The United States raised the Stars-and-Stripes across its new territories. In Canada, while there were protests, no real major action was taken place for American annexation. Gomberg as Secretary of State had suggested his plan to the house, the senate, and the President. It was barely approved by all. The US basically absorbed its southern neighbors with no force at all. Gombergs idea of making Mexico one big state besides Baja was still needing to show promises. The Philippines Commonwealth was also expanded to fit the newly acquired territories in Formosa, Hainan, and in the Central East Indies. As compensation for US annexation, Iceland was immediately granted statehood. In the American far north, the Canadian Northwest Territory was broken into the territories of Makenzie and Keewatin. For now the US Pacific territory was all made one huge, Territory of Pacifica. To also compensate for US annexation, the Atlantic Islands that were under the control of Portugal and Spain, as the new State of Atlantica. Bermuda barely slipped into being included in the state. Gomberg in 1952 ran a failed campaign for the Democrat nomination but lost to Hubert Humphrey. Meanwhile George Patton as a Republican came on the scene and as relations throughout the 1950s with the USSR deteriorating greatly, Patton by 1960 had started to make uneasy allies in the Untied States of South America still under the control of an aging Vargas, Hebrewland, and the United States of Europe.

 * The USE was formed as a coalition of Western European countries negotiated by Secretary of State Gomberg. The Spanish Civil War had continued into the Second World War leading to by mid-1940 after the Nazis took France, intervention in by Portuguese and German troops after the last of the "volunteer" brigades had been defeated. The decisive entry of the United States in 1941 after the sinking of the USS Lexington off the coast of Ireland dragged the US into the European War by spring 1941. The Americans had since 1938 after the Panay Incident sparked war with Japan. The Pacific War in 1939 eventually morphed into the now global conflict sparked after the Germans had invaded Poland over the Polish Corridor. By late 1941 the battle hardened soldiers returning form the Pacific had already from Britain launched Operation: Lusitania and strategically occupied areas north and south of Lisbon. The allied forces continued a westward advance into 1942. Meanwhile an overconfident Hitler had invaded the USSR making huge gains. The entry of the US made things tricky. The Liberation of France in 1943 and subsiquent operations into Early 1944 liberating areas in Belgium and Spain along with Operation: Ceasar and the inavasion of Sardinia and Sicily as part of the larger Operation: Commando. The War ended in December of 1944 after another confusing month of fighting following the Atomic Bombing of Berlin on Novemeber 14th, 1944. Portugal and Spain following the war were left in chaos, and the Benelux countries were too wrecked and in need for protection. Switzerland had been invaded after the fall of France and had largely liberated itself. Italy fell into Civil War by January 1944 after the fall of Naples. Secretary Gomberg met with several Western European leaders like Charles de Gaulle, Izaak Reijnders, Pierre Dupong, and Victor van Stydonck de Burkel. The Conference of Paris was signed in 1946 forming the USE proper in France and the Benelux states. Switzerland was incorperated into the USE thanks to its feudal attempts to rebuild and face immediate civil war thanks to Soviets right on the border. Italy was forcebly incorperated to make sure its pride never rose again. De Gaulle was elected president following the incorperation of Italy. Spain and Portugal joined thanks to the unending anarchy. The USE was unstable. Members of the European Parliment were divded between the Northern Socialist Parties and the more conservative Catholic and Protestant Conservative Coalition.

 * The Soviet Union was rebuilding after 1922 from the Russian Civil War. Leningrad fell but Moscow was defended to the core. The winter of 1942 wrecked German troops in Russia. The Soviets quickly began "The Great Push". Soviet troops on all fronts drove the Germans with their Bulgarian, Romanian, Hungarian, and Finish allies. A 3,000 mile wide front was pushed far back. By the great advances into summer 1942 the Soviets were approaching Eastern Ukraine, and were on the verge of liberating Leningrad and pushing into Finland.

Bellum Aeturnus


The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand von Hapsburg or the Austro-Hungarian Empire triggered the event known as the Great War. The assassination was caused by numerous ideas that were in Serbian Nationalism and Pan-Slavism.



Psychotic Reaction
The Great War shaped many men, poets, writers, and in particular artists. Adolf Hitler, so scared by the Great War expressed his hatred of the conflict through art and his book "Mein Kampf" or My Struggle. The book was about his experiences in the Great War and how he blamed the communist uprisings in the world for Germanys defeat. Hitler fell in line with the NSDAP in Bavaria making it a well known organization but after a incident in a Beer Hall Hitler was thrown into Jail for 6 months. Hitler fell out of politics. Into the 1920s the NSDAP fell under Gregor Strasser with Otto Strasser as the hierarchical "heir to the throne". The Great Depression of 1929 impacted the world greatly and threw Germany into even more chaos. Hitler came back into politics and became the NSDAP spokesman and lead advertiser. The Weimar government couldn't sustain itself for any longer. After the death of President Paul von Hindenburg, mass SDP and communist uprisings followed across Germany. The German Civil War had begun.



The Communists were the most strongest in the Rhineland/Ruhr region and in parts of Saxony and Silesia. There was also a large rising in East Prussia but was being halted from expanding by the Kreigsmarine and whatever police and army units had retreated inland. Despite being a left leaning party, the NSDAP swiftly sided with the government which came under military rule of Erich Ludendorff and many generals. The Communists made large gains and drove the Reichswehr to the point of total collapse. Into 1934 something was needed that would turn the tide. Shortly before Germanys call to some new friends was heard there was a political turning point in the Weimar Junta. Ludendorff was assassinated by a communist sniper in during the battle of Mittenwalde south of Berlin. Already the "German Soviet State" rejoiced as KPD leader Ernst Thalmann delivered a speech declaring victory was near. Kurt von Schleicher was chosen as the Junta's new leader. He sent Alfred Hungenberg to find new allies. He found a new fascist government in Austria under Kurt Schuschnigg, and Italy under Il Duce Benito Mussolini. The entry of these two nations turned the war around. Into fall 1934 the sailors of the Kreigsmarine along with the East Prussian brigades had liberated East Prussia from KPD rule, many of these forces joined with the worn out defenders of southern Berlin. The KPD forces made up for in numbers and small arms but lacked real heavy weapons. The Communist forces used whatever artillery they could capture but the shells were limited in number. The KPD had diverted most heavy artillery to Berlin via a neo-airlift. Whatever planes the Reichswehr took control of were fitted to stop these shipments of bullets and shells from the Ruhr factories. The entry of Austria and Italy doomed the KPD from establishing a German socialist state. Italian tanks and planes delivered bombs over cities and heavy support of ground forces. Regular Italian and Austrian army units reinforced the depleted Reichswehr attempting to hold Berlin, continue the Siege of the Hamburg Soviet, or continue the defense of Hessen from KPD forces. The NSDAP didn't really need the help. The SA stormtroopers and whatever gun owning citizen had largely liberated Bavaria from KDP guerillas and the "Munchen Soviet." Even by the time Austro-Italian forces crossed the border the Nazi's had already began a offensive north into Saxony to relieve Berlin. By mid-1935 the last KPD resistance in the cities of Cologne and Bonn died out, over a million had died in the conflict and many more on the Government/NSDAP/Civilian side. Von Schleicher announced himself as "Reichspraesedant" in late 1936. He got rid of the Weimar government and even though elevation's would be held, the German Reich was born. Schleicher had formed the Christian Centre Party and dominated politics followed by the SPD and the NSDAP. Poland meanwhile had built up its military and occupied Danzig in 1933 violating Versailles and annexing the port as the city of Gdansk. Many forts had been constructed turning Poland into a fortress state.



The Chinese Civil War had still been raging through the German Civil War and the CCP had reorganized into an effective fighting force in the south of China. The Communists being able to hold out effectively avoided a long march to the north. Meanwhile in Europe von Schleicher had been making many military plans for the Reichswehr, most of these plans would be for an invasion of Poland. Stalin meanwhile had been taking his time rebuilding the USSR. Even through he carried out his purges, he began rebuilding his armed forces and his tank corps, replenishing the old 1920s designs with KV-1's and T-34/76 tanks. German tank forces were being built up with Czech and Italian designs. Panzers I and II's with Panzer 35's and Panzer 41's (these were Italian M-41s used as main battle tanks until 1950 when more succesful Panzer IV's came out).

The Soviet Union had also began to make its moves. The Soviets had thrown supplies to Bulgaria as a 3rd Balkan War erupted in 1940 and Soviet troops even occupied Moldova from Romania. The Soviets then began a policy of "Reclamation". Stalin had order Soviet troops into the Baltic States. The increased Soviet threat lead to Poland withdrawing most of its troops from the German border. Von Schleicher knew the time. In February of 1951 he order the Reichswehr into position. A month later of March 3rd, German troops launched a invasion of Poland to reclaim all former German Imperial lands. The Polish army fought back fiercely but was overwhelmed at the border. Erich von Manstien, Erwin Rommel, and Walther Model all lead the offensives. After a month of heavy fighting Reichswehr troops stood at the gates of Warsaw. This in effect lead Lithuania to join the war retaking Vilnius and pushing deep into Northeast Poland. The Germans advanced and took casualties. Obviously the eastern forces the Poles had arrived in time. After two more failed attempts at breaking through, the Germans gave up. All of the old territory had been reconquered. In late April the Treaty of Königsberg was signed seceding all former German territory in Poland back to Germany. Poland was also to not place its troops within 50 miles of the German border and was to pay reparations. Lithuania gained all of its claimed territory and within days of the Germo-Lithuanian ceasefire and peace treaty, Soviet forces crossed into Poland to "correct the border." In only a Week Poland surrendered to the Soviet army, most Byelorussian and Ukrainian lands were annexed into the Union, and a new SSR was formed in Moldova. Von Schleicher obviously won another term after the conflict. Poland and Lithuania effectively became German subjects. What disappointed von Schleicher is the Austro-Czech friendship with Il Duce in Italy.

In 1943 after the 3rd Balkan War had ended Yugoslavia was on the brink of anarchy. Rioting in the streets saw the armed forces shooting protesters in the name of the King. Something had to be done. When a group of Slovenes sought sanctuary in Trieste, Italy, they were perished by a group of ethnic Serb soldiers who were fired upon by Italian police believing this was an invasion to distract the ethnic violence in Yugoslavian cities. On July 1st, Italian troops crossed the border into Slovenia brushing aside most resistance. Ethnic violence ran so high Croats rallied behind Ante Pavelic, who assumed position as "first prime minister of the Croatian Republic." Croats in the army rebelled and fled to Croatia making a Croat army deemed the National Militia. The Kings assassination lead to a power vacuum needing to be filled and Bosnia erupted into a series of Serb, Croat, and Islamic warlords. Pavelic sought for Bosnia to heel before Croatia and launched an immediate invasion. Already rouge soldiers under Milan Nedic launched a failed coup on the government days into the invasion and started a civil war. Nedic declared an independent Serbian government. After 3 weeks of heavy fighting Bulgaria joined in and took Macedonia. Italy later formed the Rome Pact in 1945 with Croatia and the new Serbian government as staunch allies. Meanwhile in Greece, the defeat of the 3rd Balkan War lead to a Communist Revolution by Markos Vafiadis in 1947. The Democratic Republic of Greece began to arm itself, for a war of revenge against the Bulgarians and Turks. It soon began receiving delicate arms from the Soviets through the Black Sea ports. In 1953 Stalin though crazed believed it was time. On August 1st Soviet troops rolled into Lithuania, a German protectorate, and sparked the Second World War. The first act of Germany in the conflict was to rush troops and tanks to the border. Polish forces were sent in quasi-penal battalions.
