Spring
'''Japanese troops force China to retreat the frontline to the northern Korea, while Japan already has taken eastern China. The leaders of China flee to Tibet, where they are met by rebels, who kill the communist chinese leaders. Half of the chinese soldiers surrender, while the rest keep fighting without knowing what's going on. China is forced to have no government. Meanwhile, France, Netherlands and Kingdom of Iceland joins the war against China. Soviet Union, due to it being in United Nations, but still being communist, decides not to do anything and declare neutrality in the war.'''
 * Italy keeps sending aid to Japan. Meanwhile, Benito makes a speech in UN HQ, that during his time in prison, he agreed to himself to be more democratic. But these are only words. Fortifications are built in Sicily, and weapons are now allowed to be carried in Western and Northern Sicily. Government secretly sends aid to italian mafia in USA through the actual palermian mafia, who the Benito has many connections with. Italian Eritrea begins massive local african people genocide and sends italian "colonists" to settle there and build more modernized buildings.


 * Japanese Republic: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. Japan also continues to defend itself from China, and begins a counter attack. The Japanese Imperial Army begins an attempt to push the Chinese out of Korea, and elsewhere the Imperial Japanese Army continues fighting the Chinese, hoping they would eventually give up completely and end this pointless war.
 * Great Britain: Great Britain's Parliment meets to discuss the independence of its colonies, due to the need for budget cuts, and thinks that letting the colonies go would be best. Meanwhile, British troops from Hong Kong launch small offensives into China, burning or destroying smaller towns, and taking prisoners.
 * The Third Reich: The military continues to be amped up, and a plan to rid the world of Bolshevism is formulated.

Summer
'''Japan wins the Chinese War of Aggression and receives whole China and their occupied territories. All african nations who did not yet receive independence, ask for one peacefully.'''
 * Italy reminds that Japan, under the UN resolutions, must give the Chinese ex-holdings to democratic government. But, however, Italy at same time secretly asks to wait a little longer, while at the same time sending political spies to overthrow the republic in Japan and bring back the fascist government. Meanwhile, Italy annexes Ethiopia. Benito explains it as an act of defence, because the land belonged to italians "just a moment ago".


 * Japanese Republic: Japan gives Thailand, Indochina (Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia combined), Malaysia, Mongolia, Tibet, and Korea independence under democratic capitalist governments; and forms an East Asian Union (similar to NATO) with them to ensure that they are protected from any threats etc. Meanwhile, Japan holds on to China itself for a while, and so to soon establish a democratic government; and soon Peng Peiyun (female, Democratic) is appointed President of the new democratic China while Soong Tse-ven is appointed Prime Minister of China under Japanese watch. President Shigeru Yoshida promises to give independence to China soon; though Japan will keep Hainan Island and Shanghai as special territories (I'll give Shanghai back in the near future; Hainan Island, no).

Autumn & Early Winter
'''The attempted coup of Japan fails, as the security managed to capture the political spies. Though, it is unknown who send them still, but links to somewhere in Europe is given.'''

'''Egypt, Sudan, British East Africa, Algeria, Nigeria, French West Africa and Tunisia protests to gain independence. While Libyan and Ethiopian protesters are silenced by italian military.'''

Also, Greece flips to Fascist after a coup happens there, that was backed by Italy.
 * Italy begins massive military recruitment and war machine build-up. They prepare to invade Albania again, after it was unlawfully taken from italians. They send an ultimatum to Albania to give the land peacefully as a pre-caution.
 * The Albanians surrender peacefully and agrees to give the land.
 * Italy stations 20,000 infantry troops at Albanian-Greek border in order to prepare them to move on Greek lands when(if) Axis will fight against Turkey, which is likely, due to its alignment to USSR. Benito also founds Segreto Servizio Rete (Secret Service Network), where spies will be trained not to betray the motherland.


 * Japanese Republic: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. Prime Minister elections are held, and Kiyoko Ono is elected as the new Prime Minister. After the failed coup, President Shigeru Yoshida decides to tighten security in the nation to make sure it doesn't happen again. Research into technology continues. Meanwhile Tokugawa Yoshimitsu decides to write up a plan as he plans to enter into politics and wants to bring back the good old days, with some new elements mixed in.
 * Benito invites Tokugawa to the newly built SSR HQ to share with its plans of bringing back fascism to Japan. Benito also pledges to support Tokugawa's army with italian army, in case of a war. Benito also suggests that Tokugawa made a coup d'etat in China, because chinese are already unhappy with current government, because the governments been changing too quickly now, from republic to communist state. From communist state to democratic state. Benito says that he sees no difference between the current people's happiness in democracy and future happiness of theirs in fascism.
 * Tokugawa Yoshimitsu goes to the SSR HQ. He also sort of disagrees with having a coup d'etat as he planned to keep it under Japanese control when he eventually goes into power in Japan (he doesn't want to loose China).
 * Benito states, that Tokugawa would still be under control of both China and Japan. And with Axis Powers' military, it wouldn't be that hard, if no other nations would interfere.
 * Tokugawa Yoshimitsu then agrees to create a coup d'etat in China.
 * Benito nods, and gives Tokugawa a corps of 10,000 italian blackshirts, in case if current chinese government or actual Japan shows resistance. However, it would be a good idea, to wait until Japan grants independence to Chinese democrats itself.


 * Romanian Empire: Romanianization and assimilation of cultures of occupied Yugosalvia it's all but completed. Millitary is amped up, Millitary tech is updated. Infrastructure in Romania and Romanian Yugosalvia is updated, Technology is researched more Factories for Weapons and other things.


 * The 3rd Reich: The Reich funds another coup in Poland as the Nazpi party once again comes into power in Poland. The political opposition in Poland are all sent to work in labour camps. Poland is turned into a puppet state of the Reich, and the German military begins to set up camp in Poland, and supporting the Polish military. The Reich also begins funding the Hungarian National Socialist party and asks Romania to help ensure the fascists stay power in Hungary. The military continues to be amped up. Poland are forced to join the Pact of Steel meaning the global fascist alliance of Germany, Poland, Hungary, Italy, Romania, France, Denmark, South Brazil and Argentina; now spans the world. The Reich asks for all nations in the pact to send aid to South Brazil to help them in the civil war against the communist north Brazil; and they also ask pact of Steel nations to ensure France doesn't loose their colonies to the independence movements.
 * Italy suggests to Third Reich to establish their own major espionage network, so it would be easier fighting Soviet Union in the future.
 * The Gestapo and SS are everywhere don't you worry....
 * Benito speaks of external, not internal espionage networks.
 * And the Gestapo and SS's operations are at times external (they're a bit different to OTL)
 * Benito nods and after a little cup of tea with Hitler(lol), after shaking his hand, leaves.

 * <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Greece and Bulgaria accept and joins the Axis Powers.


 * Japanese Republic: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. President Shigeru Yoshida gives China their independence but Shanghai and Hainan Island are held onto by Japan. A few days later, Tokugawa Yoshimitsu with some backup manage to sneak in the Parlament in Beijing during a bad snow storm, and manage to successfully rid both President Peng Peiyun and Prime Minister Soong Tse-ven of China, along with other officials. They escape quickly without ever being known. Soon elections are held in China, and Deng Yingchao (female, Fascist) is elected as Prime Minister of China and 'Huang Ming' (it's really Tokugawa Yoshimitsu, just using a phoney name just to get by) is elected President of China. However, the media announced as that they were democratic (they really aren't). This leaves the East Asian Union unnoticed. President Shigeru Yoshida however, is very suspicious, and increases security some more with-in Japan.
 * Italy strengthens japanese spy network, by sending some SSR agents to Tokyo and other major japanese cities. Some agents are also sent to Beijing to cause small chaos.
 * The Third Reich: The Reich sends troops over to stop North Brazil. German aircraft carriers in the seas around North Brazil send in waves of bomber planes to bomb North Brazil into submission so South Brazil can take it over. Poland continues to be militarized by the German military forces in the country and they heavily fortify the Poland-USSR border. Hitler also agrees with Mussolini's plans to enslave Africa as he sees the Africans as too stupid to be able to govern themselves, but the Reich has no plans to start an African empire so he leaves this up to Italy and France, but other high ranking German officials ask Italy to leave Namibia to Germany, so Germany can re-take her former German South West Afrika colony. He also notes to Mussolini the use of African labour may be useful once the Jews and political prisoners are all "used up."
 * Benito agrees to give Namibia to Germany, after he takes it from Great Britain. He also finds the idea of Hitler quite useful, because, as a current order, all african people are ordered to be killed, so now, Benito gives an order to only kill these african non-european people, who are potentially dangerous to the current fascist government.

 * Italy invites France and Nationalist Spain to join Axis Powers (Kogasa, decide). Italy is outraged that Great Britain did not yet declare Egypt as independent, but keeps that to himself, and Hitler(the bad thoughts). Meanwhile, railroad tracks are built around the mainland Italy.
 * France and Nationalist Spain accept the invitation and joins the Axis Powers.
 * France is already in the Pact of Steel. Ergo they are already in the axis.
 * ​Ah. Alrightly.
 * For the record Germany, Poland, Hungary, Italy, Romania, France, Denmark, South Brazil and Argentina are all in the Pact of Steel prior to the game's re-boot. Who else has joined the axis/pact of steel since the re-boot by the way?
 * Check the Axis Powers page, and update with the nations above please :)
 * Romania: Romania sends troops to aid South Brazil and the Third Reich. Meanwhile economy, infrastructure, millitary tech and tech is updated and researched.
 * (( Remember, it's In_Fra_structure. Not In_Fan_structure. ))


 * Japanese Republic: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. President Shigeru Yoshida is getting very suspicious of the environment in Japan. Some Japanese are also noticing a bit of strangeness when walking in the streets, and notice that there are a few more tourists travelling in large cities, but dismiss it as nothing to worry about. Soon in the Prefecture of Hokkaido, Shigeharu Nakano, member of the Nihon Kyōsan-tō (Japanese Communist Party) is elected as governor (he's just being governor, don't expect him to spread his influence anywhere else in Japan); people in Hakodate and Sapporo are concerned that the elections might have been rigged or something, no one knows for sure, but they don't say anything. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Kiyoko Ono is concerned about the future of Japan, as she feels tensions lingering around; she soon has second thoughts, and begins looking toward Imperialism and Fascism as the way to survive; she does not announce this to anyone and keeps it to herself. Anyway, President Shigeru Yoshida calls for a meeting with all East Asian Union members (Korea, Thailand, Indochina, and Tibet) to discuss economic and greater co-operation between members. In China, President 'Huang Ming' (aka Tokugawa Yoshimitsu) begins to secretly device plans on how to take Japan as his, along with, in the near future, conquering back Tibet, Thailand, Indochina, Korea as well as a few other lands (Philippines, Taiwan, maybe Indonesia).
 * Italy peacefully asks Japan to remove Nihon from governor's position, because he is considered a threat to United Nations. Italy also sends more SSR agents, with a mission of rigging the next elections, so that Benito's "democratic" party(personificated as "Peace and Seniority Party") could gain some positions in the next elections. Other operations in Japan are halted, so it could not bring suspicion.
 * President Shigeru Yoshida attempts to do so, and soon Shigeharu Nakano steps down after three months on the position and is replaced by Shin Kanemaru, a 'democratic' (he's actually Imperialistic-Fascist in secret). Though, he shrugs why it would be a threat and points out that the Soviet Union happens to be a Head Council of the United Nations.
 * Benito states, that Soviet Union helped to fund the start of UN, but it didn't actually do anything useful while in this organization.
 * Great Britain: Great Britain gives its colonies independence and still maintains troops to build up the government and infastructure. Britain prepares to give its remaining Asian and Oceanic colonies independence, and asks Japan to supervise the elections and government. Technological research and military expansion continues.
 * President Shigeru Yoshida of Japan, along with the East Asian Union, will be sure to supervise the elections and government to ensure that they will remain a democracy; and they do so.
 * The Third German Reich: The Reich continues to bomb North Brazil, and threatens to nuke its capital city if the North don't surrender. The Reich ask all of the Axis nations to send aid to help South Brazil destroy the north and unite Brazil under the national socialist banner and remove the communist threat. Poland continues to be militarized by the German military forces in the country and the border has thousands of panzer tanks stationed near-by for invasion. This continued amping up of the German military cements the Reich's position of having the most advanced military in the world.
