How Germany could have won World War I

- What if Germany in 1914 would have focused on Russia in the opening days of the conflict while keeping weaker forces in the West against France, would have not invaded Belgium, would have accepted a quick armistice with Russia, what if Austria would have granted Trento and Gorizia to Italy, with Italy joining the Central Empires?? And what would have happened in the following years, if Triple Entente would have lost the First World War?

Fun fact:kaiser wilhelm II actually told Moltke to focus on Russia first while holding the french border then after defeating russia go do the Schlieffen plan to France just like in this video but Moltke told him he was stupid and went on with the Schlieffen plan
And what's ironic is that the kaiser's plan had a higher probability to work than Schlieffen's plan do
Cpl. Rook Like the video said it won’t matter if the French pushed into Germany that far
Cpl. Rook It’s more accurate than taking just cause the French take Elsass-Lothringen that the Germans would surrender
Cpl. Rook that’s basically what you’re implying when you say that
You mean Molkte THE YOUNGER?
@Corporal Rook without Britain, France couldn't have done much
Russia: being 2v1'd by A-H and Germany
Also Russia: declares war on the Ottoman empire
Russia: Oh no.... I have 2 enemies on my eastern front.
*Ottoman empire absolutely does nothing*
*Russia: so anyways, I declared war at Ottoman empire*
@@LordMedic Well it was the ottomans who attacked the russians by bombarding sevastopol.

How Germany could have won WW1:
1) immediately surrender to the French Republic - become a province of France
2) use higher population to win elections in France - change country name to Germany, change capital back to Berlin
3) own Russia
4) profit lol
@The Wehrmacht General lmao, it's basically what they have done finally, except they did it using the EU
Is that a oversimplified reference
Lol
@The Wehrmacht General That "profit" makes it seem so...
Sounds like a plan for a man who is an absolute madma'am.
when you can restart the game
Executing the Schlieffen plan later was actually a nice move
Yeah, and the Kaiser even asked Molkte to put the plan on hold and deal with Russia first.
Step one:
Don't forget that Russia exists.
Step two:
Check if you done the first step.
Strep three:
Rule Europe.
No, step 2 is don't forget Britain is a thinh
eh maybe it would better is Germany to forgot Russia exits in ww2 lol
@@theusa2317 Staline was preparing an invasion of Germany anyway so the collapse of Germany in WWII was pretty much inevitable
Well... If british do a.peace after fall of france german could defeat soviet

step three go around france
If the German Empire won WWI, that guy with a silly mustache would haven’t come to power.
Na there wd have been no need for it. Obviously you did not understand the impact of the versaille contracts.
Germany was a greater power than england very well off but after ww1 stripped of land, industry dead, paying dept they can never ever ever pay whilst they are starving
THAT is the only reason hitler got elected by 43 % and turned germany into north korea by the reichkristallnacht.
So no mustachemen.
Just be a bit more attentive in history class
Right, and the guy with a handlebar moustache woul stay in power.
Hans Grönkvist wilhelm2 ?
That wd be maybe on the quest for the USAto make it a constituionally monarchie. Bismarck was very right about everything of foreign affairs just not the national ones. Wilhelm installed the first welfare state with social security. He cared about its people. I think he wd have gotten his colonies he desperatly wanted like france and england - he wd have been happy. the split up the middle east amongst each other resulting in the middle east conflict we have today.Like all the other monarchs- it was about power and overestimation. However germany indeed was a military superpower
Beating russia and france. The brits were starving them....
sure wilhelm had an urge for recognition- as his mother never accepted him due to its handicapt arm. So maybe if she did, that wd have been a different story.....narcissm is build by lack of emotional needs met and overdtimulation on performance.
I dont know if he was, but they dont see clearly. Bismarck kept saying
Usa speaks english never forget.
Keep close to russia! Russia is the key wilhelm didnt listen, he was only focused on england....
Don’t worry, another guy with a mustache and a withered arm would have simply owned everything.
*silly mustache get it right bruh
so basically france got the treaty of versailles turned on them
DarK Elemental basically
DarK Elemental There is a video of the Actual treaties, Russia gets the Versailles Treaty, has to release nations and Germany would annex huge chunks of Baltic territory under Russia
For a war we havent started lol

Open a history book please. Germany declared war on France, after failing to impose humiliating conditions of surrendering the French forts alongside the border and occupying the French regions in order not to attack France. Many german well known historians like Fisher in his numerous studies showed that Germany was preparing war for many years and was doing all it could to start the war before the peace conference in 1915 and before that Russian would go in a full military potential. With the Septemberprogramm they already planned to annex parts of France and Belgium before the war. The attempts from the Kaiser to cause a war by threatening France during the two Maroc crisis were a failure. I am alway so surprised so see so many people making comments without any kind of knowledge about their own country history.
Because France in Alliance with England, and England could not allow the excessive strengthening of Germany.
I appreciate how this theory is realistic and believable
*Germany declares war on the ottoman empire*
Italy joining the central powers
relistic
@@britishspy2640 They would have, had Austria relinquished south Tyrol and Trieste. Most of the General Staff of the Italian Army was preparing for an offensive against France, since they had the pact with Germany. Cadorna was actually surprised when he was ordered to take his troops East and attack Austria-Hungary
@@britishspy2640 Italy before war was a close ally of Germany and A-H. If A-H would give them Tyrol they would easily join Central Powers. That's common knowledge.
Still no mention of HOW the war is won. merely a statement that it was. how is that realistic?
The not invading Belgium strategy was called the Moltke Plan, which involved holding the Rhine between Belgium and Switzerland with 5 armies and turning against the Russians with 6. This war plan is available in AGEOD’s “End All Wars” grand strategy PC game about WW1. It does not stop GB from entering the war however, it just delays their entry. There is no guarantee Britain would not have joined the Allies because of a non violation of Belgian neutrality. The Anglo-French alliance via the 1904 Entente Cordiale was still in effect. They would have joined at some point earlier rather than later.
This was not the Moltke Plan.
This was the Kaiser Plan.
The Schlieffen Plan or Schlieffen-Moltke Plan was the invasion through Belgium that was formulated by Alfred Von Schlieffen and Helmuth Von Moltke the Younger.
This was Kaiser Wilhelm II's Plan which definitely had a higher chance of success rather than the Schlieffen Plan.
Yes but how to justify and find support for the war among the parliament and British public?
@@terrymeng6321
Well considering the Russians are getting absolutely destroyed and France is also slowly losing territory.
This might be the time to join in.
@@jaredjosephsongheng372 I thought France was the one taking the offence so they aren't losing territory. But all I am saying is there is no way for Britain to join the war right away, a year later sounds plausible.

Germany: Not again.
Poor germany, They collapsed the roman empire and now everybody hates them
how germany could have won ww1:
Dont help Austria-Hungary.
They were allies, how wouldn't of they helped?
Neon it wouldn’t be a world war. Just a regional war between Serbia and Russia vs Austria-Hungary. Also, it would be extremely likely Germany would join in as they are very close allies with A-H.
that would mean slavic states become free and would support russia and then when the war did break out germany would be in a worse situation
Or Germany could do a 180 and commit to an alliance with Russia instead of AH. This would likely mean an alliance between France and AH, but AH would be surrounded and get defeated easily. Russia would get more influence in the Balkans and Germany could probably get Austria like they did in 1938.

Templar S Hitler spent a lot of time killing Jews, doesn't mean we have to appreciate it. More to the point though, this whole channel is a farce.

Austria cant win against France without having to call all of Europe
Bruh
You know because of they had half population of Germany and had much smaller economy-industrial production in both World War 1-2.So that’s not an equal fight and France really needed Allies.
@@AFT_05G what about franco-prussian war?
@@AFT_05G Russia outnumbered Germany and still got clapped. Also look at the 7 years war, the forgotten world war. Prussia held out against basically all of Europe, it's only ally UK did basically nothing on the continent, only overseas fighting and maybe blockades. The land army was almost entirely prussia vs everyone else. It ended up being a narrow draw and almost a loss, but considering it was against the entire continent and germany wasn't even United, and some germans even fought against them (Austria), that was amazing. From the early 1700s-ww1, Prussia (and later Germany) lost only once to a once in a lifetime general (napoleon) during the worst time for Prussia. That's an amazing record.
Background music is solid man. Great 👍!!!
Do you know what song it is?
5:21 R.I.P for that peoples which thought Germany had a small and weak navy in WW1.
I'm going to be focusing on the problems I find in this hypothetical scenario, and will go by the timeline presented in this video.
1. Britain would've entered the war either way, as not only did the government want to support France, but if the Central Powers won the Weltkrieg, Britain would be without allies in Europe, and in a sea of German influence. If the Entente won the Great War, Britain once again would be friendless, leaving the Empire open to isolation. The Jerrys had calculated Britain would join the war with or without them invading Belgium.
2. Austria-Hungary in our timeline couldn't capitulate the Serbs for a year, only doing so with the help of her allies. If A-H focuses on the Russian front, the Bosnians, Croatians and Slovenes would rise up, as it would look like the Empire abandoned them, leaving the gates of Vienna open to a Serbian invasion. Although the Serbian army wasn't the mightiest, the French would supply them and even send their own forces to help them out. Italy, seeing the A-H-Italian border relatively undefended, would pounce on this opportunity, marching to Vienna as the bulk of the enemies army is out there crippling Russia. Although the Italian army was capable, it couldn't compare to the armies of the Great Powers. French supplies would bolster their strength, forcing the A-H to withdraw a sizable chunk of their army to fight the Italians, Serbs, French and the rebels.
3. A-H would refuse to give up the territory they owned to Italy. Their own ally requesting their hard-earned land they fought for would be unfathomable for them.
4. Why would Russia declare war on another nation when they themselves were fighting the Deutsches Reich and A-H? Seems a bit counter-productive.
5.Why did the Turks start the Armenian Genocide? They only did it in our timeline because they were loosing on all fronts, and they used the Armenians as a scapegoat to blame all their defeats onto them (Kinda like the Nazi Party when you think about it).
6. Britain entering the war after the French and Russians faced heavy casualties is a bit unrealistic. Either they join the war on France's side at the start, or they join the Central Powers after staying out of it, realizing they have more to gain by joining the "winning" side.
7. This might be just a mistake but why would the Toms leave the force in Kut alone, severing reinforcements from coming in. The rivers are their only way of supplying the besieged force or break the siege entirely.
8. The Central Powers just left Serbia and Montenegro to their own devices, knowing the British and French fleets are strong enough to supply and send their own forces there to help Serbia and Montenegro advance deeper into Bulgaria and Austro-Hungary? And the Balkan entente just sat there, doing nothing? The Serbs wouldn't collapse that easily, fighting in the mountains and having a home-field advantage would allow them to survive for longer.
9. I believe the Russian high command wouldn't be that obtuse to notice 1,000,000 of their own men could easily be encircled in own quick advancement by the enemy. Considering they could pull of a "great retreat" from Poland, they could probably achieve the same results _and_ not lose 1,000,000 men and all the equipment the had.
10. You're telling me the Central Powers wouldn't impose harsh conditions onto the crippled Russians? They Russians would throw in the towel either way, so they don't have enough major power at the negotiating table to not pay war reparations and hand over even more territory.
11. While I agree the Germans couldn't really occupy all of their occupied territory, there's the rest of the Central Powers, as well as the option of turning them into puppets to control them. If the Soviets managed to industrialize, whats stopping from the Germans from making them into urbanizing them to match the rest of Germany.
12. I don't get why it takes 1 year for the Americans to transfer troops to Europe. Just because one ship is sunk doesn't mean the other hundreds of ships can't be launched. The U.S.A has enough factories to produce the same amount of weapons that were lost to the sea in a week at it's slowest rate. When Corporal Hitler was wounded at age 27, the year was 1916, and by the time the Americans would arrive it would either be 1917 or 1918. Also remember the blockade? The Germans are probably suffering from malnutrition weakening them further.
13. How can Germany outperform both France and Britain. Both have huge empires which means more men can be mustered. They also have more resources. In fact, the British empire alone in 1914 had over 5 times the amount of people living in its borders than Germany did in 1914. France and her colonies go toe-to-toe with Germany in terms of population size. With more people working at factories and fighting in the army, the Germans should be running out of resources save for Coal and Steel. I suppose Ottoman and Romanian Oil and Ukrainian wheat keeps the German war machine running, but as we saw earlier the British have taken the Mesopotamian oil fields controlled by the Ottomans, and Ukraine is ravaged by war as Zvallid.
14. When the French attacked in sheer desperation against the German lines but to no avail, where is the Commonwealth? British morale would be higher than French morale, and they could probably slightly push the Germans back.
15. In theory, the British and Americans could wage a brutal war against the Central Powers. Fighting in the Middle Eastern desert, landing in Sicily, and taking back French Colonies, but signing the armistice was a smart move.
I might have over-analyzed your work a bit to much, and I hope I have done nothing more than use constructive criticism to help you improve your work. To summarize: a bit unrealistic. Still, great video. I appreciate the hard work you have put into this video

The US had not really a great military at the time they entered the war.
Actually they had to start to build up the army in the real timeline at the moment they entered it. The war against the US started in 1917 and it took them until fall of 1918 to be the force who stopped the germans.
13
Colonies are usually not ones because they chose to. They are ones because they are suppressed by a stronger force. If the french or brits would have used the possible manpower of their colonies to fight for them, they would have lost their colonies in no time.
15
In reality the US joined the war because the germans promised Mexico to support them against the US if they would start a war against them. In this timeline, that would not be possible, so it is rather unrealistic for them to join the war against Germany. They werent really keen on fighting abroad that time.
@@asgdfjkglh5414
1. I agree with you on my twelfth point. However, building an army of a million is feasible for a nation as populated and industrialised as the US. In our timeline yes, the Americans came through only at the very end. Any number of men helps, and in our timeline American men were sent to British and French battalions, as their numbers were small and couldn't make up their own unit.
In our timeline many Africans fought against each other in the Great War. They didn't successfully revolt; in fact the British were at their greatest colonial extent after war, as they added some German colonies and added them to her collection. Many people from British Raj headed out to the Western front. 1 million in fact. And even then, if no colonial men were to be sent to the front, they could still be working in the factories and growing food for the army.
The Zimmerman telegram was the frosting on the cake for American intervention. Jerry's cable to America was severed by the Tommys, and all information that reached America was controlled by Tommy. This means the Brits could over exaggerate everything the Germans did, and the Public and the media would believe it, which further ignited America's passion for war. The unrestricted submarine warfare the Jerry's used hit American ships or sunk ships with a large number of Americans on board, adding more coal for the fire of war to eat.
1.Britain was in alliance with france and was threatened by germany . So if the French loose , they join to protect them.
A-H knew it was falling apart and would give up Italian speaking territories if given enough push
4. The ottoman entry into the war was a trick. They got some german ships to fire shells on russia under the Turkish flag,so russia declared war
As Austria Hungary took its winnings I was thinking:
Don't blow up don't blow up dont blow up don't blow up
DAMMIT AUSTRIA YA INHALED TO MANY ETHNIC GROUPS AND YA FECKIN BLEW UP
Unless they resolved prior cracks there wouldn't have been a shot at staying as one... they had good plans pre war but the hungarians did not give enough breathing space for the ethnicites pre war... a direct relation ship with the kaiser would be more plausible post war, as the new kaiser would like a more stable "union" as it was headed by Franz Joseph
I loved the video!!
Great video!
Ireland would have been a republic with all its land in such a scenario
Then de velerah wouldn't have fucked us
Nah. Britain isn't completely lost. The BEF remains intact according to the scenario, so we don't see armies destroyed. Further more, the Brits have maintained a blockade. A Britain who lost will ironically spell the doom to the Irish. As they clamp down the Irish revolt in fear of a German ally literally next to Britain.
Mr Trugglez fuck u Ireland win on its own we would win with German help
Ben Lally we wouldn't have joined germany because of our slogan of "we shall not serve king nor kaiser"
Thomaslawlet how did eamon fuck us
all could have been avoided if the Italians posessed a shred of honor
in 1914 Germany and Austria declared war on literally half of the world without even asking Italy what did they think or give them 2 little border cities. Why Italy should have joined their war?
zvallid because Italy was bound by treaty to assist Germany/Austria in case any of the Great Powers declared war on them. The Central Powers didn't declare war on the whole world, they declared war on Serbia, which Made Russia DoW Austria, which made Germany DoW Russia, which made France DoW Germany, which made Germany attack France through Belgium, which made Britain DoW Germany. So really, the Central Powers only declared war on teo or three countries, not the whole world.
Besides, the point is that had Italy honored its original part of the Triple Alliance, France would have had to fight a two front war, and Austria would have only fought on one front. The whole stalemate on the Western Front may have never happened, and the war may have ended much sooner. The Central Powers came close to winning the war, Italy may have been just enough to prevent it from becoming 4 years of insanity.
Declaring war on France Belgium Serbia Russia is not declaring war on 4 countries. It's half of the world. And if Germany did not declare war on Russia, WW1 never started
zvallid nobody declared war on france, france declared war on the central powers, honoring their part of the Triple Entente.
That's beside the point, though. France honored its treaties. Britain honored it's treaties. Everyone honored their treaties, except for Italy, who balked and then betrayed their former allies. The Central Powers held out against "the rest of the world" and almost won, but at great cost to everyone involved. Had the Italians added to the strength of the Central Powers instead of draining it, the war could have been over much quicker and with less draconian peace settlements, removing the prerequisites for the second war.
Probably you have some problems with Italy. Read wikipedia, Germany declared war on France. Germans love treaties except when they have to respect them, look at Barbarossa operation for example and the 2 invasons of the neutral Belgium is not something to be proud of.

What happened in WWI is simple : Germany had the upper hand, but the Trench warfare stopped the front. Reality is so simple. Most of your "offensives" are a copy of the first part of the war, when Germany could advance easily, but unless Germany started to use their few tanks with almost perfect efficience (which took almost 3 years to the Triple-Entente), the western front would have remained unchanged.
Also, you consider that Belgium will stay neutral (ok, let's accept it), but you delay the Schlieffen Plan for TWO YEARS and expect the same outcome ? With TWO YEARS to prepare and with the trenchs used for one year, Belgium would have delayed the german offensive.
And at 11:03, could you tell us how the front line moves so much with the trenches ? And how the french side waits when they can outflank Germany easily ? Basically, your video tells us :
1) If Germany wins all the battles
2) If France, Great-Britain and Belgium are stupid.
3) If the russian revolution happen 2 years earlier than what really happened.
4) If the Lusitania was sinked 1 year later.
Germany wins the war. Too much if's to me.
David Sbabo Stop learning from Marvel books you dumbass.
Michał Hunicz check the video again.
Another example : when Germany invaded Belgium, Belgium was building defenses and unprepared. Give them 2 years and trenches, they won't pass in a few days.
David Sbabo Belgium didn't suspect German invasion.
Michał Hunicz what don't you understand in watch the video ?
David Sbabo Nothing is strange in this scenario.
This is one of the best alternate history vids I've seen! Respect from Bulgaria!
Kaiser Willem 2 :who Are you
Im zvalid.
Kaiser willem:what could you give me?
Zvallid: victory for your nation in ww1.
Kaiser willem: hehe boy.
German time traveler: this information is worth millions
But if germany won WWI it would have developed into a superpower and well basically the best way to explain it is the world being like today with america's influence being spread all over the world but instead of america it would be german influence being spread over the world and instead of american also germany would take so much advantage from winning the great war that it would probably not have any rivals.
+Confederate Blayre Unlikely, the USA would still have developed into an economic superpower, they didn't really need the wars for that, it just made things happen a bit faster.
So if anything it would have been a conflict over control between Germany and the USA, instead of USA against USSR.
+Confederate Blayre i would always take a world were germany is the leading power instead of the usa
I am with you but as long as the usa was replaced with the confederate states of america but germany and the csa dominated together with some kind of ultimate alliance.
Oops, accidentally sent a spam report to UA-cam for your comment ha-ha. My bad!
What kind of bad effects can I expect from that?
I like how you had the well explained or at least aptly explained outcomes of each country of significance
If you ever feel useless just remember that this video has english subtitles.
I'm sad that it is only a dream.☹️
**cries in german**
It would have been better.
@Tigran Abazyan so? Even Russian ruler was German. Romanian ruler was also German. Interests varied. Britain s sole motive was to not allow a single power to dominate Europe
That's awesome!! Really enjoyable. A theory, but a good one!!
WOW ive not seen this for like 2 years .......im sad that i could not of seen it , it was such a great video and very, Very well maid good job
Many haven't seen it for almost 100.
lol
Is there a part two to this
I am very interested to see more of this video
Good video
This is a very interesting scenario, keep the good work up!
Ok guys I finally found. The song is Warrior Strife by Jingle Punks.
Thanks a lot, I was looking for this song for years
I give you my sincere gratitude for this information. I hope you live a good and happy life and fullfill all your dreams because you deserve it.
And I curse de focking author who focking NEVER put this song in the description. I hope zvalid gets his anus probed with all sticks in this universe.
Bless you, Jonny Garcia.
THANKS A LOT
Not all heros wear capes
You are a real legend of internet zvallid, ¡¡¡¡grazie mile per il tuo lavoro¡¡¡
A better world… WW2 would have never happened
yes ofc, ottoman empire could protect the middle east against western barbarians. But don't be sad. We will make turkey, ottoman empire again in the next election inshallah.
It’s funny how, even with a few different details, history is still similar
sounds like a great world
MuricaMapper it sounds like a salty German
Germans rule.

I cried watching this wonderful video.
The part when there is the eagle and the Lion ia actually fantastic
Very well thought. Loved it.
This is an incredibly well thought out scenario. I applaud your breadth of historical, political and military knowledge.
This guy has better military strategies than generals who spend years in an academy
Well, maybe because unlike the generals, he has the benefit of retroactive historical hindsight.
🤓I guess I'm the 'um actually' guy now.
The idea for video is going East First. The line of reasoning is: They would've won if Germany had dedicated its forces against Russia, not France. After all, the Germans beat Russia IRL, and no invasion of Belgium means no early British involvement. If Russia fell, France would be on its own. And, obviously, more men against Russia means they could collapse super early! France would be forced to surrender. Maybe after they can go through Belgium and take Paris. While initially a sound line of thinking, further research disproves it.
As a brief overview, German commanders had planned to deploy eastward from as early as the 1880s [1]. It was wargamed several times, the idea being swift destruction of Russia and a quick redeployment to France. Similar to what Moltke did in 1914 but reversed. Many commanders feared during this planning that it would be impossible to defeat if German forces didn't destroy Russia within the first few months. Generals such as Schlieffen, Moltke the Elder, and Waldersee supported this hypothesis, mainly because of Napoleon's campaign in the region. However, Schlieffen scrapped it due to the concern that it was not possible, and it was dumped by Moltke the Younger due to the problem that the Anglo-French Entente was a more significant threat.
Had Moltke the Younger followed these plans; the result would likely be just as they thought. Russia in the early stages of WWI proved that it could sustain massive amounts of damage and the Germans couldn't capitalize on it. Germany deployed 1 field army to East Prussia, the Russians attacked with 2. German forces had superiority in everything ranging from firepower to doctrine. The effective combat strength of a German to Russian division was about 1:1 1/2. The total destruction at Tannenburg led to a massive Russian loss against an equal/superior enemy but the Germans were unable to capitalize due to terrible logistics. [2][3] If one German field army suffered from insane supply issues and was unable to capitalize on victories (that could've led to the destruction of 2 Russian armies), what makes 3-4 a reasonable amount to destroy Russia in just a few months? Germany would simply be caught in a grinding campaign in Russia with so many men, characterized by terrible logistics. The maneuverability shown in the actual Eastern Front of WWI wouldn't be present due to the sheer amount of German forces there.
In the west, France would have a massive numerical advantage. Nearly 5 French Field Armies would concentrate against 1-3 German Field Armies. Although France in the Battle of the Frontiers showed its lack of capability to break through determined German defenders, it did not have the insane numerical superiority demonstrated here. [4] The war would not result in a German victory, and Britain would likely become involved in the war before a likely Russian collapse later in the war. A negotiated peace would occur, but France would not fall and the peace would not be in Germany's favor.

One thing- the Nivelle Offensive was a direct product of his tactics at Verdun (which also got him appointed to army chief of staff). Without the battle of Verdun, the Nivelle offensive probably wouldn't have happened.

Yeah... at 4:48 ... you know things are bad when your troops are suffering in snow in middle of June.
Great vid!
Wow, I did not expect this to be so well thought out. Great job. However, I think that after AH descends into chaos, Galicia should probably join Poland. Then again, there's still a possibility that Germans would object - it seems that in this scenario they'd have enough problems with Polish nationalism even without making Poland stronger.
Am I the only one who always imagines that this Germany looks like its eating the Czech republic? @15:24
The Czech Republic ist eating Germany from inside. It did this since 1100.

Well, very well done! Only thing I'm missing is the Romanina changing sides like 4-5 times.
Nice video!
But in my opinion Bulgaria will gain not only Macedonia but parts of Serbia, Romania and Greece.
romania and greece were neutral
Imperialist Mapper no they declared war on the central powers
Arceus Legend Greece was not neutral.
Greece was fighting the Ottoman Empire since the revolution of 1821 and then 1st and 2nd Balkan War, against Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria. Is not pictured on this video, but by 1920 Greek territory has expanded to Thrace and (ex)Ottoman coasts till Bursa-Eskisehir-Afyonkarahisar-Antalya line, but after the Sevres Treaty (August 10th, 1920) limited just to Smyrna territory administration. The Allies (British Empire, France and Italy) were the Signatories and Depositaries of the Treaty of Serves, "Partitioning" the Ottoman Empire. Romania was also benefited by the treaty.
yea
Constantinos Vassilakis Yeah. And in 1923 they got their asses handed to them by fucking Turkey. Good job Greece, sucking at war again. 20 years after capitulating to Germany in 2 months.
“Nazism develops in france” sorry to tell you but that’s impossible, maybe a ultranationalist country or a communist one but sorry not a nazi one.
Probably a French brand of Nationalism with similar ideologies to Nazism (with French people being the "pure" race)
Ahon! We are le superiors!
National Socialism isn't only a German thing and there had been nationalistic and socialist revolutions in France so why not both?
@Bilimin Sırları last time i checked most of the people in france are french, not german. So it wouldn’t work.
@@Wm7forthewin the idea of being Socialist but only for your nation is not German,also Nazis wanted Aryan race to be dominant and French were Aryan in their eyes too.

The timeline:
thanks for the advice, i'll make sure to do better next time
Or "how the world could've been better"
Doubt
@@bigjohn6534 it would be, cuz the middle east issue is Britain and France's fault,
And Germany would have stopped the spread of communism
@@aimbot2441 If they won WW1, they would not be Nazi
@Wilhelm II. Not sure about that, they would either flip to communism or go democratic because we're in the modern world. Fascism has no chance of growing since they didn't lose.
@ people won't love the monarchy long enough. Monarchist government depends on luck if you either an actual competent leader or someone who has no brain. It happens and has happened in every monarchy. It will eventually die.
The idea seems probable, but of course, hindsight is 20/20. I purely enjoy the alternate history of it, it creates for a super strange set of alliances for WW2.
Please make a part 2
Oh nvm he already has
