      I don't think so man, in this timeline the Argentines seem much better economically and I don't think Brazil would change much, maybe the dictatorship would last even longer using the victory in the war as propaganda, and in the end, it's possible that the 2024 Brazil of this timeline wouldn't be very different from our Brazil, only the 3 sulistas would have a little more territory.
      If things don't somehow change for the better for this Brazil, I prefer our timeline where we don't have a minimum amount of extra territory, but the Argentine economy is in chambles...
      Well, it would be funny if they somehow declared war on us to regain territory but in the end just lose even more to all the neighbors, renaming the city of Buenos Aires to Bons Ares would be awesome, but the US would definitely step in and mediate the peace talks.

      I can, the Labour membership is massively in favour of it and many of the more pragmatic leaders have hinted at supporting it. I doubt Labour will suggest it for the next parliament because they will have such a massive majority that it is likely to carry them through to a second term. it is during a theoretical third term that they might actually suggest it and put it in a manifesto for a third term in order to borrow votes from the smaller parties which they would do so for greater representation down the road. Doing this after two-three parliaments in power would have given Labour the time to reverse the damage of the Tories and bed in their policies and by bringing in proportional representation prevent the Tories from undoing it.

      An interesting Video would be if one side of the Allies won more than the other side. If the Western Allies managed to defeat the Germans before Operation Barbarossa starts or while the Germans were still deep inside of Russia.
      Or what if the Western- Allies were somewhat more incompetent, allowing the Soviet Union to take more of Europe uncontested (Let's just say D-Day fails miserably in this timeline).
      I think both timelines would make somewhat of a difference.

    The video is based on a mistaken premise, overlooking something very important: Argentina was virtually a British colony, with all its industries, ports, railways, etc. dominated by English capital. Precisely for this reason Argentina was persuaded to remain neutral, so its grains and meat continued to supply the British throughout the conflict, with very few ships sunk by Nazi submarines.

    Argentina only developed a plan for invasion in late September 1941. However, within a week or so there was a collision involving one of its two battleships, one of its three cruisers and a destroyer (which sank). This put nearly half the major warships out of action and made any early invasion impracticable.

    1914-1919 - France’s loses the weltkreig, and cedes the border region of Alsace, cedes Nancy, dunkirk, and Lillie, while Germany annexes Luxembourg and the all the land up to the Meuse river, while making a puppet of Belgium. Also France ends up undergoing a far left revolution and the original government flees to Africa
    1939-1945 - France loses the second weltkrieg, and cedes the area around Calais and up to Amiens, which is given to Germanys Belgian puppet. France’s original government is restored to power under restrictions
    1948 - France loses 3rd weltkreig, forced to cede the Lorraine plateau behind the cities of Nancy and Metz, and also cedes all of the French alps to Italy, while Switzerland also gains land up to annecy, furthermore, britanny gains full independence while France itself becomes a complete puppet government of Germany, permanently.

    Reminder that Argentina didn't join the second world war because the UK told them not to. During that time, Argentina was providing food and different animal based products to Europe (the UK in particular). The british wanted Argentina not to join because if they did, the axis would have been allowed to destroy the ships with food and such. Thus making it more difficult for the UK to resist the nazi attacks.
