What If The United Arab Republic Succeeded? | Alternate History

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ต.ค. 2024
- The borders of the middle east have long been a matter of contention, with many suggesting that the Arabian states were set up to fail, doomed to suffer forever wars because of a lack of consideration for the religious and ethnic groups of the region. Despite this, or perhaps even because of it, there was once an effort to create a United States of Arabia, or rather, a United Arab Republic in hopes of building a more stable nation, of course, that didn't happen...but what if that changed? What if in an alternate timeline, an alternate history scenario, the United Arab Republic survived and succeeded? But first, we must answer why this U.S of Arabia failed in the first place.

@@MonsieurDeanCool thanks. 👍 No rush. Peace ✌🏻
The US Saudi alliance would be extremely strong in this timeline. No way the US would let a socialist country have this much control. I'd also expect a lot of CIA coups
Just because it's socialist doesn't mean they would align with the USSR. Probably will see the Rusdians as a Imperialist Threat. The Baathist were Ethno nationalist with a leftist economic system. They would be neutral. Like India (also socialist at the time) and Yugoslvia.
In the Age of Domino theory the company would still try to do something. Or at the behest of the Israelis.
Bruh.
The US wouldn't be as hell bent on breaking the UAR considering the fact that it couldn't even keep up with Israel, which is tiny by comparison. I would expect an extension of NATO membership to Turkey much more quickly than in our timeline. And, while I think it's quite unlikely, it would be possible for NATO to accept Iran in order to better protect Saudi Arabia and prevent anymore annexations, followed by a potential but just as unlikely invitation for Saudi Arabia proper to join NATO.
We are talking about the cold war era and, funnily enough, being woke or democratic was not a requirement to join the First World in the cold war. Taiwan is one of the clearest cases of this, seeing as in its early days it was an authoritarian government.
@@skepticalmagos_101 Sad reality of how the US could've had more leverage in the cold war, if say they had supported the Socialists in Vietnam in independence against the French, they would've had a reliable and strong bulwark against Chinese influence in South Asia, and would've spared a generation of the horrors of war.
@@skeleex hindsight is 20/20
Nasser was one of the founding members of the Non Alligned movement, and the CIA Wasn't as trigger happy in the old world. Notably the USA went out of their way to court yugoslavia.
What if the Korean War was a US victory instead of a stalemate?
That’s a decent suggestion actually. Militarism would definitely be more a thing in the 70s - 90s and China would be vastly effected.
Korea would be a better place
Korea today would have a population of over 70million people, resources from the north and much more land to develop, if they followed their historical economical path you can expect a much stronger Korea that would easily slide into the top 10 largest economies worlwide.
And a follow up opposite video what if the Korean War turned into a proto Vietnam war with North Korea winning
there's 2 different versions of this
"what if China and Russia stayed out of the Korean war"
"what if the Chinese and/or Russians were beaten in Korea and pushed out of the north"
both these scenarios would have different results
What if the Kalmar Union survived?
I think there was a video a while ago
@@thomasbarca9297no
I wonder how Imperial Iran would have interacted with the UAR before the Revolution
Shook hands, smiled, and fired AKs at the enemies. “You take the West. I’ll take the East.” The shah would say and the sun rose on their empires.
If this UAR can't defeat Israel they can't make much progress against Pahalvi Iran either. In real history The Shah and Saddam (back then still the VP, but effectively in charge) clashed in early 70s. Iran believed that the maritime border in Arvand river/Shat al-Arab (confluence of Tigris and Euphrates) should be at the deepest point of the river while Iraq wanted all the river of itself. A long period of tension in which the Shah armed the Kurdish rebels in Iraq led to a serious border conflict which Iraq lost and had to accept Iranian demands after the Algerian president acted as the mediator.
@@MonsieurDeanhey you z man you give me an imaginary senario about my country and you can't get rid of even one of my rivals what the heck I want my satisfaction back
@@nourahmed-sh2ox psssh bah puh brghzz bzzz oh I just destroyed one of your rivals. Are you satisfied?
I wish you had been more specific about the 6 day war. Even if Israel still comes out on top, having a more unified Arab war effort means the Israelis either gain less territory or gain the same amount but have to fight a longer war. Either way, a less decisive Israeli victory has ramifications down the road. As just one example , if Israel is unable to take or hold Eastern Jerusalem, this not controlling the Temple Mount, that has HUGE implications for the future of Israeli politics and Jewish culture around the world. A failure to take objectives like the Sinai Peninsula, Golan Heights, or especially the West Bank and Gaza has massive implications on the future of the Israel-Palistine conflict .
the only reason that it was a 6 day war is that the Arab states weren't ready. Israel was weak at the time, and most of its oil came from the Arab states. If Israel did not make peace, the war would become a war of attricion with Israel losing all its resources and being naval blockaded by the far superior navy of the arab states. The arab states did not think that Israel would do good so they mobilized less troops. If the war was longer, other arab states and muslim states would join and mobilized their armies and destroy Israel. Longer war=counter offensives, resource cut off, trade cut off, more support and more countries joining the war, naval blockade, air bombardment, sanctions and Israel didn't have enough population to win against Egypt only so if the war was longer, Egypt would mobilise 1 million and defeat them.
@@Helloer123 and then a second holocaust commences
@@Helloer123Also combined with the other arab states, the army would be more than 1 million.
@@Helloer123i can add one thing to why the arab state loose in the 6day war is also cohesion among the troop of the different countries like you say they weren't prepared to fight this type war
Guys in the comment section, as a Arab I would just like to add that the reason why they lost is because our leaders in that time were r*tards, they all had their own Palestinian militia or influence and would throw them at each other sometimes like Pokemon cards, the Black september thing was basically a Palestinian militia armed, trained and depoloyed by the Syrians who supported them with two Brigades and also their attitudes during and after '48 was that Palestine is already freed and that they just need to consolidate their rule. Thats what I despise about our modern mentality, all of us are grasping for power while ignoring real issues its called division. I see soo much missed potential and it makes me sad but heh they are secular republicans and they disobey allah so maybe these f*ckers werent supposed to do anything good in the first place.
Would love to see a video on What if MacArthur became President in 1948?
I’ll do you one better: Patton lives and joins MacArthur on the Campaign and is named Secretary of War/Defense.
@@crusader2112truly unstoppable team! I feel like if this happened with Patton directing UN forces during the Korean War North Korea could have subdued much earlier not giving Mao time to think and we could have seen a UN push into Manchuria that could threaten Beijing.
@@thorpeaaron1110 Indeed. Definitely the better timeline, hopefully no nukes will be necessary.
@@crusader2112Most likely there wouldn't as the Soviet Nuclear Program was still in the process of being built and in any scenario where nukes are used it wouldn't be ideal for the Communist forces .

What if the United kingdom of the Netherlands never fell ? What if the belgian revolution was avoid or crushed ? What would a larger, more industrialised Netherlands change in Europe politics ? Would WW1 and WW2 change significantly ?
Germany would have avoided Belgium in WWI, but wouldn't change much in WW2.
There may have been a real possibility that the netherlands would have joined the central powers in ww1 cuz they had good relations w germany but no reason to join. If they owned belgium there was a real possibility that paris would have been taken
@@merrylildeath3113 There's also the counterpoint of the Dutch not wanting to risk a war with the Entente out of fear of losing their colonies, since their colonies of Indonesia, Suriname, the Congo (if they were given to the Dutch since Belgium doesn't exist in this timeline), and those in the Caribbean are literally surrounded by the Entente.
@@ryannathaniel9296 thats also very true, ww1 was such a complex topic because of political fuckery. Gotta love it
There are many things that I want to point out here as an Arab and Muslim:
1. The different schools of Sunni Islam are not at all that different. Most modern scholars study all four, in fact. They have the same fundamental beliefs and of course, have the same opinions on all the major aspects of religion. They differ in minor things, and differ in theit methodologies of extrapolating religion onto new things. Most importantly their difference is applying religion into law. Fundementally however, there is no religious difference and scholars and populations alike view each other as rightly guided, and even when they differ they view it as a valid disagreement where both sides have a point (since the disagreements are on minor things).
2. Panarabism is very reactionary. It existed as a reaction to Ottoman rule, and was reinforced by tbe existence of Israel. Reactionary things arent stable, they dont exist as they are, only as other things are. The thing is, the Arabic sneaking world isnt homogenous. Not even remotely. Arabs, before the spread of Islam, and well into it (as the culture and language took centuries to spread, only existed within the peninsula. Even after the spread of their culture and language, these various peoples still hold onto my of their old traditions, and are very very clearly different cultural groups, even with the influence and language. Thus a Peninsular Arab, and a Levantine Arab, are very much barely the same "Arab". The traditions, cultures, values, so much more are quite stark.
So realistically, the barriers here arent religious (besides Sunni snd Shia of course) but cultural.
Your thought process is all messed up.
1. Just because Arabs are not 100% identical that doesn't discredit the idea of a united arab republic, the greatest empires and superpowers of history had way harsher cultural separation amongst their population
2. Anyone with a hint of MENA historical knowledge knows that Arabs existed outside of the peninsula way before islam (Philip the Arab-the ghassanids- Palmyra- Arab-persian loyalists in iraq during the rashiduns campaigns etc etc)
@@deanal-jackson4593
1. While yes this is true, we live in an age where ethnostates are nation states are the norm. In age old empires one ethnic group was always the one in power and usually ethnic wars were the reason they fell. Umayyads because of Berbers, Abbasids because of Persians.
2. While this is true, both Ghassanids and Lakhmids ruled the southern parts of Syria and Iraq. Lands which were predominantly Arab even before Islamic expansion (South of Euphrates and the Syrian desert). Philip the Arab was born in the Syrian desert, which was always Arab, not the densely populated fertile crescent where both most people in Syria and Iraq are in and are from, but also places which weren't Arab and hadn't many Arabs before Muslim expansion. Likewise Tadmur (Palmyra)'s core was in the syrian desert, which once again was Arab even before muslim expansion, as the densely populated strip of fertile land, or the geographical Levant, wasn't and hadn't many Arabs. So while yes there were Arabs in the so called polticial Levant, these places are geographically part of the peninsula. And once again realise both Umayyads and Abassids fell becsuse of these ethnic conflicts.
Yea that part was confusing, the primary divide is Shia/Sunni, not between the schools of thought, for example Shafi was the student of Malik
@@HassanalBolkiahSoyjak Yep, and Ahmad ibn Hanbal was a student of Shafii. They always praised one another too. And modern scholars even if they stick to one mathhab still learn from the other imams and respect them and their opinions greatly.
Not smart are you
Muslim today kill each other over these small differences
Then add tribalism
Why Ethiopia, Turkiye and Iran are included in the thumbnail? Is that a trap to attract pissed people from those countries? 😂

Been looking forward to a new scenario thanks man.
Hope you enjoy it, pal!
Thoroughly enjoyed it! No matter what you think of Nasser, I think he was the only man who could have pulled it off.
This map almost completely matches up with the war of Gog and Magog in the Bible😅
That was unintentional, but interesting.
Perfect comment doesn't exi-
The Bible doesn't provide a "map" of Gog and Magog's locations.
IMO Algeria wouldnt open up diplomatic ties with israel given its history with colonialism and how it is in OTL. Algeria would probably have friendly relations with the UAR without being directly in its SOI. It would probably just be a regional player, too big to be fully absorbed but not big enough to be a large player.
Love your content!
What if Napoleon III defeated prussia!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Interesting idea. France really did have a lot going against it at the time, but had the empire survived there was genuine potential for the French and English royal lines to merge (if Napoleon IV survived).
@@MonsieurDean You really need to explore it! Specially with Napoleón IV marrying beatrice!
@@MonsieurDeanIt's also hard to tell how Napoleon IV would rule would he rule in a Neo absolutist way similar to how Kaiser Wilhelm II or would he be a liberal constitutional monarch.
@@thorpeaaron1110 The French Empire was already sliding back towards constitutional monarchy during the later years of Napoleon III's rule. Napoleon IV would need to put a lot of effort if he wanted to rule in a Neo Absolutist way, especially as the Bonapartes were more reliant on popular support to rule than the Hohenzollerns were
What If: The Napoleonic Wars became the Napoleonic WAR - Constsnt, ceaseless conflict between the French & their varying allies against the British, Austrians etc.
As a flip on this, what if the World Wars were fought like the Napoleonic Wars, with scores of breaks between the fighting?
Uhh algeria is the last country that could ever have ties with israel in any scenario its not just because they want an independent palestine with all its lands but also because many jews we’re in algeria propably 144k algerians hate them because they we’re favoured by the french colonialists and given nationality and after that in the liberation war jews we’re in support of the french and after independence thay we’re eventually kicked out because of this long history
It would depend on how other countries in the world saw the events. The Soviet Union would probably have back up the UAR due to their socialist government, but would also be trying to influence it to accept a more Soviet styled way of running things.
The US of course would intervene in their own way by becoming "allies" with the various non-UAR states, and keeping things with Israel as they did in the OT. There's also the idea of the Soviet Union empowering the UAR with military aid as they did Cuba and others, which would cause the US to do the same, escalating things in the process.
Europe is up in the air depending on which nation we're talking about and how powerful of a projection they wished to have. Britain being the only one I can say anything about in certainty, would likely be helping the US in the endeavor, with their own ideas on where to go.
In today's world, I think a UAR would, while shaky, be a stabilizing force for north Africa and some of the Middle-East. Depending on how well they keep to their socialism, they could become an industrializing force for that part of the world, allowing for foreign nations to move manufacturing jobs to it, thus giving wealth to the region, but not really necessarily for the people living there. Like China right now.
China is mostly one people
And control the others by force
Iraq under saddam was held together by force
Same as Lybia under Kadafi
The UAR wouldn’t align with soviets just because of similar ideologies
I genuienly think that if the UAR succeeded it would absolutely dominate Israel, since currently Egypt alone has a much more powerful army. Also about the nukes, in the 6 Day War the UAR in our timeline had strong connections with the USSR so a nuclear development might have taken place in that alternate timeline. Not only that but there also have been nuclear developments and interests in our time line aswell as seen with Saddam Hussein in Iraq and currently in Saudi Arabia.
In what world does Egypt have a more powerful than Israel? Maybe if you purely look at numbers, but there’s no way you are that braindead. 😂😂😂
Egypt did actually already have a nuclear program during the UAR with support from France and the USSR. Although The Mossad, being much more superior than the Egyptian intelligence found out about the plan and simply destroyed it by assasinating several of the members
Israel kicked their ass since 48

egypt would obviously become leaders of this union, best military, best economy, best positioning, most water, most food
That mentality is the very reason why the UAR failed in the first place.
@@A.Severan it's the exact reason the other countries should have knew what they were getting into prior, the eu is pushing away the federation idea for the similar reason

@@randomguy6152 there can’t be a union when one state is high on itself. And for what? It’s the poorest per capita down there with North Yemen. Egypt is no Germany or France.
@@A.Severan Egypt would be the Germany AND the France of this union most the other countries have more desert than land, the food situation and water situation are both obviously gonna get carried by Egypt and the defense of this new nation would once again be carried by Egypt

what if Arabia was United after world war one and France the united kingdom america maked it an protectorate
I think Algeria would’ve joined the alliance early on considering the Egypt/UAR was its biggest supporter in its war of independence with France.
I would say that it would’ve been nice if we had an UAR, I made my own version of that nation and called it ASU (Arab socialist union) thought it was a cooler name.
Nasser was actually more moderate that ppl say he was. The first refund to rule the republic of iraq under Kareem Kassim was very pro communism and USSR, Nasser refused to make any alliance with it.
I still agree on your point that in order for this union to survive it would’ve needed a more moderate leader than Nasser.
This union would’ve changed history forever, I think it was going to be very progressive, it even might’ve grown to be a third power next to the ussr and USA, but it would’ve Maintained peaceful and economic relations with both sides. Which would made the Middle East and africa thrive.
After all the fall of socialism came from Egypt. Egypt was the First Nation to quit being socialist
As a nassersit I loved this video keep it up
Edit:
The main reason why Egypt and Syria didn’t win or lose just draw in Yom Kippur war, was the lack of democracy. I would say in this timeline ASU would be more Democratic, and would allow it’s generals to do there jobs without interference

When does Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran or central Asian countries became part of middle east?
Or Arab as said in this video.
This union would become even better and likely if the sykes-picot agreement never happened, a united Arabia that isn't ruled by an absolute monarchy of extremists, but instead by the hasemites would be key to establishing this union and would get rid of a lot of problems.
ماذا لو انتصرات العراق علي ايران في حرب الخليج الاولى
The United Arab Republic would never succeed because Arabs are a very divisive race. Every Arab leader of each nation wants to take the most prominent position - to be in charge. This is precisely what happened. Syria had a thriving economy before it joined the UAR in 1958. When it left the UAR in 1961, its economy was destroyed by Nasser's socialist policies. The UAR union between Syria and Egypt was very one sided in Egypt's favour. Egyptians came to control Syria. Syrians felt they had become prisoners in their own country. Thats why they left the union. So much for Arab nationalism. Yemen also was planning on joining the UAR. It was a kingdom under King Muhammad bin Badr and its economy came to bè dominated by Egypt. Nasser was against monarchy and he made plans to overthrow the king with Egyptian affiliated officers in the Yemeni army like Abdullah al Sallal who overthrew the king in 1962. Ultimately Egypt became tied down in a civil war in Yemen between 1962 and 1967. They lost the Six Day War in 1967 and Arab unity was destroyed. The only thing that united the Arabs was Nasser's death in 1970 and since then the Arabs have been divided.
what if soviets won the war in afghan?
The Afghans will fight forever.
@@meejinhuangno, like... what if the soviets didn't installed a puppet regime after the coup in the afghan leadership so the public would support the democratic republic rather than the mujahadeen and the DR was more loose on the secularism policies so the modarete religius people would support the communist regime instead of the mujahaden?
It is interesting that the ending has us basically back where we are now. Israel ends up as an ally to Saudi Arabia with extension having ally with Ethiopia.

I agree with most of this but I think Iran could have seen a full on regime collapse if they lost in such a manner, potentially falling into civil war and potentially having separatist break away states especially in the Northwest.

Thank you for the video, but the map has several issues. You could focus more on the eastern part.
Palestine, along with the Golan Heights, is missing from the map.
Sudan’s borders weren’t like that in the 1960s.
Western Sahara doesn’t have control on the ground.
Somaliland is not recognized as an independent state by any country.

Additionally, the events depicted are not very realistic. Ethiopia and Somalia have fought many wars, so portraying them as friends is unlikely. The Algerian population would not easily accept relations with Israel, especially given their recent history of French occupation. And once again, the Palestinian people are being overlooked.
Day 2 of asking for what if Nazi germany never surrendered and enacted the Werwolf Plan. We will make you do this Mosley!
Germany would have still been defeated. The USSR would be merciless and may have killed 10s of millions more Germans.
What if the Kingdom of the visigoths in Spain was not conquerd by the umyads caliphate or what if the Umayyad caliphate failed tho conquer Spain
Spain may not have gone into its age of exploration and colonization.
Ah pan Arabism one of the great pipe dreams of the last hundred years.
