Getting back to the Ukraine issue. All the factors me and Cal said might have proved inconsequential if there had not been a famine - which was why the Germans were not able to stop the starvation ongoing in their own nation. If you can find out the cause and somehow change it, you might be able to swing the war in a completely different manner for the Germans. For one, they would not be forced into the futile offensive in 1918 and would have easily been able to cut down the incoming American troops.
