Talk:Federal Republic of Germany (Central World)

For a time line based on Germany's success in World War 1, this article on Germany has nothing to explain that victory or the consequences it had on the kaisar. Though the kaisar was not in charge by time the fighting began, the titular head is still there at the fall of the Empire (in a mirror image of the fall of the Soviet Union). It seems that nothing has actually changed in the world but the fact that Hitler lives for a long time as a dictator in the office of chancellor (Bismarck's role in the 1880's). Germany replaces Russia as ruler of eastern Europe, and that's about it.

This has potential, but it needs a lot of work. The many pieces don't fall together the way they should. You need to go back and build Germany through its successes in World War One. Socialism was rising, and it is conceivable that Hitler would indeed rise even after being jailed in a failed coup d'etat. But what were the conditions in TTL that would parallel those of OTL? The armistice that unilaterally humiliated the Central Powers was not signed. Instead, there was the surrender of the Allies and the expansion of power for the Central Powers. Political unrest in Germany would not even have lead to the Republic. Wilhelm II might not have even addicated. SouthWriter 01:21, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
