    Italy, who lost the war, gaining more land in Europe than in our own timeline.

      Well the austrians collapsed and the balkan front was full of entente forces, im guessing in this timeline the Italians just abandoned the entente after the fall of france, and the central powers were too exhausted to do anything about Italy, since austria hungary collapsed who was going to stop them taking dalmatia

      @ Given that Germany and Italy (despite the war) were actually very good friends still, it’s safe to assume that with Germany being the only European power left in the Central Powers, they likely allowed Italy to take the land due to their close relations.
      Even in real life, Germany and Italy only declared war on each other in 1917, purely because Austria was losing to Italy and the Germans couldn’t risk losing their largest ally. Realistically in this timeline, I can see the Germans and Italians becoming friends once more, likely forming an everlasting alliance like France and Britain in our timeline.

      Italians would have been smashed without the French, people from Croatia and Slovenia fought bitterly against Italians because Italy had territorial aspiration against them. My great grandfather was among those soldiers on Soča front, they were quite fanatical unlike on other fronts. I doubt that they would let go their lands so easily

      @@lupus_lupi Okay, that’s great, but you just described how war works to me. Any one nation in that point in time would have been “Smashed” without allies. France would have been destroyed without the Entente, Germany would have lost immediately without the Central Powers, so forth.
      The fact of the matter is that whether you like it or not, the Italians were winning on the Italian front, with their first major setback being the battle of Caporetto, which was only lost by Italy due to the intervention of much better equipped and veteran German soldiers. Were it not for Germany’s intervention, the Austrians would have been pushed back eventually, and the war would have ended much sooner than it did historically.

      ​@@HandOfWar Spain would be able to defend itself in Cuba and with low morale in the US, it would be able to land in Florida. After that, the US would have to pay Spain war reparations and Spain would keep its colonies. Also, it would rise and become a world power (it might get more colonies in Africa like Morocco or Cape Verde). Then in WWI, it would join the Entente because Spain had better relations with France. After winning the war, Spain could have gotten German Cameroon and part of Papua New Guinea (in addition to industrialization thanks to the UK and France).

    • @itor1450YT
      @itor1450YT 8 днів тому +5

      US would have remained neutral in WW1 (so it wouldn't be a global potential). If you decide to continue with WW2, Spain would still be a monarchy and there would have been no civil war. Therefore, it would have joined the allies. At first, Spain would be able to defend itself from the Germans in the Pyrenees, but then, Portugal would join the axis and defeat Spain. Anyway, the allies would win the war and Spain would possibly make the Iberian union. (later you can decide if there is WW3 against the USSR, and if so, it could be unleashed by republican rebels in Spain).

    • @horno3917
      @horno3917 5 днів тому

      Nah that would be impossible as the Qing empire had to fight against China, Tibet and Mongolia and later had to capitulate against China. That is how China was split up in communists, democrats, Ma Clique, Shanxi, Tibet, Guangxi, Yunnan, Tunganistan, Xinjiang Clique, Mongolia, Empire of Manchuria and the Mongol autonomus Government. The last two were puppets of Japan and Tunganistan got conquered and annexed by Xinjian in 1937. So, rather it would be a "What if Qing empire won AND joined the Central Powers?

Because at that time it was already common practice to disguise weapons and the like as passenger ships. The Louisiana was such an arms transporter disguised as a passenger ship travelling to England.
