The Aviation Era (Early World War I)

=The Aviation Era 1915-?= With World War One now over, world peace could ensue. However with millions of soldiers & civilians dead (total number estimated at around 100 million dead) and lots of changes to international borders, a new world order was established with the loss of the Russian Empire and Ottoman Empire as major world powers.

In the early years of his reign his efforts were more to convince people to leave of their own will, then financial incentives, then forced deportation...
