Video was awesome Z! Can you make an alternate history video on the Crimean War next? Russia wins? Austrian Empire helps?
I ordered my ridge wallet with the same Hawaiian design that you showed in the video. It looks good, and I hope it works better than my leather wallet that I've had for years.
Are you planning on redoing The "What if Britain joined the Central Powers."
I would buy it, but I'm so poor I'd have very little money to put in it
1. What if the Mexico was an anarchist
2. What if Austriahungary survived ww1
3. What if france colonized the west Africa
4. What if crusade war stopped into a stalemate
5. What if the 80 year war between netherlands and spain stopped into a stalemate
6. What if the soviet union take back finland
7. What if the Denmark was neutral in ww2
8. What if south America had a one big civil war
9. What if Ethiopia was the last to be colonized in Africa
10. What if the world had more monarchies.
Thank you for not ignoring the smallest member of the central powers.

What if Mussolini defended Fascist Austria from Hitler preventing the Anschluss? What If the Anschluss failed?
I mean to be fair Austrian Military wouldnt be much of a threat to the Wehrmacht
Not sure about Italy, if they managed to conquer it Italio-German Relations would really just collapse
Probably Italy and Germany would hate eachother even more and then the Austrians only hold the alps with Italian help. I doubt Vienna would stand and Austrian war support plummet since Austrians were pro German
Germany gets fucked by 3 different sides
and Spain join in with Mussolini
@@exallted The Austrian military was fully ready and willing to defend Austria, but they'd run out of ammo in days if not hours, so ultimately it would be a futile last stand, unless they had outside help, which was the whole point of the Stresa Front.

2 What if The Afrika Korp and Italy won in Egypt and took the British Middle East oil fields? (Could open up and lead to Turkish or Persian axis alignment leading to easy acces to Kazakhstan and Middle Asia?)
What if Serbia accepted ALL of the July Ultimatum
Edit: more
What if Britain and or France supported the CSA
*What if the white army and General Wrangrel won the battle of Tsaritsyn*
1. Russia would try to further spread the revolution into Germany and Central Europe, loosing as they were far to stretched out and they'd be facing German veterans and remaining equipment from the WW1. 2. The oil fields from the Middle East weren't as developed to meet all the German needs so Barbarossa would still occur leading to a German defeat though drawn out a bit longer. 3. WW1 would be avoided until some other conflict would occur between the great powers as France was vengeful and Germany was power hungry.
These are pretty good
@@KonoHarpDa I wonder if taking the middle eastern would open new possibilities though, on a operational and strategic level. Barring interruptions to the oil supply, Germany would have more oil and wont have to rely as much on Ploesti. This could give them more drive to complete their operational objectives like in Typhoon, Fall Blau, etc. And more importantly, on a strategic level, if they took Egypt and Syria, with the help of Iraq, they could exert pressure on Iran, which shares a border with the USSR, near Baku. Taking those oil fields with a southward thrust in 1941 could mean that they take the oil fields of Baku, which is massive and well developed. This means that Hitler's objective of securing the oil fields will be complete, and he doesn't have to redirect panzer forces to the south to secure its flank prior to operation typhoon (as part of a larger plan to take the Caucasus in otl)
@@zenhoflich1662 That's a good point. I didint think of Iran and it was already in the favor of the Axis.

WW1 would be weird war or WW1 won't happen
The most believable alternative history in which Germany wins in the Great War(WW1), is in the book Gray Tide in the East, by Andrew J. Heller.
Germany doesn't declare war on either France or Russia, putting itself as the attacked victim in international eyes. It remains on the defensive in the West against French attacks along the French-German border. With no German violation of Belgian neutrality, England stays out of the war. French armies suffer horrendous casualties (as they did historically) with no gain.
The main German armies that historically invaded Belgium and northern France are instead shipped to the Eastern front to intercept the slower mobilizing Russian armies. With superior tactics, weapons, organization, and logistics, the German armies overwhelm and destroy the Russian armies being committed piecemeal. Given the maximum German effort and forces, the Russian armies quickly collapse, several years earlier than they historically did. In the peace treaty, Russia is forced to surrender vast amounts territory, much as they did historically, and Russia descends into chaos and revolution.
Left without any allies, France realizes it can't fight Germany alone, and fearing a full scale German attack, a peace treaty is negotiated with the assistance of Teddy Roosevelt. German terms are very small, asking only for several small French colonies, and no reparations. In the aftermath of the war, France turns inward, giving up it's desire for revenge for the 1870 Franco-Prussian war, and putting more effort into securing and developing it's remaining colonies. In addition to the colonies lost to Germany, Japan takes advantage of France's troubles by seizing French Indochina.
That sounds a lot more plausible than the highly exagerrated version in this video, in which four of the five most powerful countries at the time (the US, France, Britain and Russia) all accept the other one (Germany) taking over without any resistance at all.
The book‘s name is „Gray tide in the east“, not Gray fire in the east“.
@@bingobongo9521 You are absolutely right! Thank you for the correction. I can't believe I got that wrong. Especially since the book is one of the most interesting works of alternative history that I've found in the past few years.

I like how you say “Germany” like if they started WW1. The title should be “What if the Central Powers won WW1”
True
Even though Germany didn't start the war, they where the strongest central power country, so it makes sense that Germany would be the ones calling the shots at the peace conference
@Half life 3 why? Russia guaranteed Serbia and France guaranteed Russia. Germany was doing the exact same thing for Austria. If someone's to blame it would be Austria or Serbia. Depending how you look at it
Wasn't the Mongolian warlord a cavalry main . It doesn't matter how good he was , he wouldn't conquer the jungles where trees speak
Yeah, most of this scenario was highly unrealistic and sounded more like a video game. Sure it is alternate history but it would be more appealing if it were more believable.
Well obviously he would just have to spam train divisions while gaining army XP to make his division build up better to put in more Armour and Motorised Support Companies.

What if the Ottoman-Japanese alliance actually did materialize and they chose to stay out of World War 1 (or just agreed to neutral trade to members of both sides similar to what Turkey did in WW2)
an ancap, yikes.
That probably would change history of Asia completely.
that' not an interesting topic,
we all kinda know the answer
not only it's impossible because germany and otooman negociated since the earlt 1900's and before
but ottoman wanted war,
The Ottomans had no choice. It would get war regardless of if they wanted it or not. The British would strike at the Ottomans to prevent them supplying the Germans.
What if Stalin was assassinated during Ww2
I think the leader of KGB would take over USSR and become the leader and think Moscow would fallen but taken back because the higher up are fighting for power

I guess it depends of when exactly.

How about what if the Weimar Republic never failed

it was true, that's why bulgaria had to start the 2nd balkan war
because bulgaria ,wasn't happy with its border, and wanted more, but by falling ot get more, they lost more
so there was a frustration within bulgarian rule, that wanted to expend, and take revange over serbia and greece; but wasn't the only factor thaat made bullgaria join the central alliance
I love it! And here are the lists that I want to see the future video.(I changed the lists.)
1. What if Korean Empire never fails.
2. What if Korea becomes the colony of France?
3. What if Japan becomes the colony of the USA?
4. What if Xinhai Revolution failed?
5. What if Two Sicilian Empire had a colony or refuse to united with Italian Empire?
6. What if Park Chunghee survives in the 10/26?
7. What if Japan invade Australia?
8. What if India join the Axis power?
9. What if Ming China survives?
India was firmly under British control during the outbreak of WW2 so India joining the Axis Powers wouldn't happen
EBONIE THORPE maybe it could as a separatist state.
Great video. I’m honestly unsure how Britain could fall in this timeline with their massive navy. I think I long drawn-out war between Britain and Germany would happen with neither side gaining the upper hand, leading to some sort of truce.

Germany could have never won WW1, the entente had too many powerful allies like Luxembourg

@@unbekaopferehrgelasser7516 I mean seriously, you really need to learn how to detect jokes. It will be very useful when you grow up.
Also the pro entente faction in Greece wasn’t very powerful, the only reason the Greeks joined the war was because Britain and France basically invaded Thessaloniki, actually the king was pretty sympathetic towards the central powers, as they Germans were subsidizing the Greeks for not joining the entente, which obviously didn’t work.

Now I would like to see as to what kind of world this leads to for the present day.
Me too
Good video, around 2:10 mark when you show the French and English areas of the world during the Napoleonic wars you really should have shown the French Pacific territories and France's African colonies. Other than that well done, keep up the good work
Great video, but I don't really get why there would be something like a "Austria-Hungary-Slavia" instead of just a simple Austria-Hungary-Croatia with Serbia being released as a puppet state (supporters of the Trialist idea were later more often associated with Croatian Nationalism instead of Yugoslavism/Illyrianism).
Another thing that I don't really understand is why and how Bulgaria manages to take over Croatia.
What was the reason for this conquest?
Anyways, nice video
I agree, Bulgaria taking over Croatia doesn't make sense. Maybe if it was Yugoslavia, or some sort of federation, but with Bulgarian hegemony, that would make more sense.
On the map it was shown that Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Serbia were one nation. Something like Yugoslavia. After the fall of Austria Hungary Bulgaria took that strange country like Yugoslavia. Maybe because of the territories and the ports? I dunno. In their place (Bulgaria) I would have annexed only the territories populated by slavs. The rest are going to be something like puppet states. Oh well. I see big Bulgaria, I like it.
You missed the whole point its the establishment of a new byzantine empire made of slavs, greeks and albenians, people who to this day live in lands once owned by the byzantines, it will be something like a bakkan union with byzantine astetic
An alternate interwar period different to kaiserreich ? Impossible
Nice alternative. However I would have liked seeing some dates or a timeline, which would have made everything more linear and elegant. That being said I must add my opinion. Why would Britain stand down with the fall of Paris? It could have easily kept the war going with no risk to itself and blockaded all trade into Europe, while still suppressing the German navy and keeping pressure on the country. Even if they did end the war, they would never have let Germany take control of French colonial territory, especially not giving up their own.
I feel this scenario strongly underestimates the strength and ability of the British Empire, the British for example had the ability to arm the winning side in Russia, reigniting the eastern front, the Russians would be more than eager to retake their lost territory. You must consider that Britain in 1914 is the equivalent to modern day US.
One last thing. France would never have joined an economic sphere if it had self rule and governance, if it was occupied and under direct German governance then yes.
In the war Great Britain was struggling.germany gaining ground in north Africa. They lost colonies to Japan(Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Burma, Thailand) in India the independence movement was growing.
@@kofienrico2804 This is about the first world war, not the second
I agree. This proposition completely ignores the fact that the Royal Navy was more than double the size of the two next largest navies combined. It is inconceivable that Britain would have permitted the German Empire to expand worldwide as suggested.
@@phoebus007 Yes, well said! Not only was it a Goliath in size, but at the forefront of naval innovation. Constructing the Dreadnought and the first Aircraft Carrier, shortly after the wars end.
What I think many do wrong in these type of videos and debates, is that people evaluate Germany's capabilities and strength through the lens of how it did in the second war. Which is absolutely ridiculous, since technology and ideology made them two totally different forms of warfare.
@@phoebus007 Without the entry of the United States, Great Britain could barely afford to feed its own populace. People do not understand how drastic the situation was in Great Britain in terms of how much food they had in store on the eve of US entry into the war. That's before we go into the considerable British debt to the US on the eve of entry. Financially, Britain could not have continued the war with Germany if France lost and the US did not enter.
If you're on gonna go back to old videos, I'd love to see a remake to the video that got me into this channel.
If Sweden was a Central Power.
I remember googling that back in the day because it just seemed so likely Sweden was going to join by choice or was going to be attacked by Russia, and yet OTL has no CP Sweden.
Huh you actually used my research I'm kinda proud honestly
12:21
The one factor ignored is the massive man power available to the UK that did so much to defeat the German Army. The Indian Army that is rarely spoken about but filled many trenches a total of 1.3 million.
@@Winston.S.Churchill Another mess left by the Labour party with promises of getting the troops home earlier. They then left the airforce to control India but that lead to a mutiny in the RAF another part of history swept under the carpet along with the fact that the NHS had already been agreed by cross party and no matter what party won the election we would have had a NHS. Again in their haste to set the country towards communism they nationalised all hospitals and that lead to the introduction of prescription charges as they had then over stretched the funds.
Great video, the only thing I would object to is TRIESTE being in the south Slav crown. My hometown, in the period 1900-1920 was majority Austrian, as the naval works brought man and prosperity, becoming the 4th city in the empire
These are always interesting. Here is another I would love to see how a minor change might have effected things:
In the aftermath of WWI the Greeks and Ottomans were still going at it. How might things have changed if Greece had not over extended itself (or had more support) and kept what they had in western Anatolia?
Certainly a lovely video, a reminder that world war one could of indeed ended with a far worse conclusion when compared to how it did in real life.
"worse"? This is a lot better than OTL
Mongolia, Tibet and the lands in between do not have the population or the industrial capacity to push into Thailand or IndoChina.
I notice this is a running theme in your videos.
Same with Bulgaria and it's 'Empire' lol.
But what would have really happened?
1. there would have been no WWII
2. Without WWII, Israel would not exist
3. it would perhaps be more peaceful in the Arab world
4. Hollywood would never have existed, the film industry would have stayed in Berlin
5. Germany would still be a monarchy
6. the world would be a more beautiful place
7. From the German point of view, the WWI was led only for self-protection and to protect Austria, and there would have been no changes in the borders. Like already in 1870 during the German-French War.
8. perhaps the EU would have formed earlier or never
The arab world would be more peaceful because U.K. and France wouldn't have eaten up the middle east, it would've split apart peacefully

What if France wasn't able to hide news of mutiny among the ranks in WW I from Germany and/or England? Would that have changed some of Germany's plans?

@@TerrierMartello Soon it will be just England
@Monsieur Z
I doubt Austria would break up like that especially if they win here. Even after the War in otl AH was almost restored. It also took a massive 3 front war for it to finally collapse when it did as well. With it being victorious the Emperor and the government have legitimacy. There's also the issue of the common army which would be loyal to the Habsburgs. Many of the soldiers who fought for Austria Hungary in WWI fought out of common loyalty to Franz-Joseph and the Habsburg dynasty rather than for say Austria or for Hungary. This was why Franz-Joseph's death was a major blow to the integrity of the Empire.
Germany also wouldn't want AH to fall as it was its only other continental ally, and it was a major trade partner. Austria and Bohemia joining Germany also means that there's more Catholics in the Empire which will worsen the divide within Northern and Southern Germany which tended to be a Catholic/Protestant divide. Austria also entering Germany would also mean that Prussia's dominance and hegemony in the Empire is lessened thanks to two more states now entering it. If anything Germany might militarily intervene to keep AH intact. Hungary wouldn't just be able to break away either like that without a massive armed uprising as many within Hungary would still be loyal to the Emperor (such as the minorities within Hungary).
Somebody make a AHOE of this, I'd pay good money to see a series about this
AHOE? What do you mean by “AHOE”?
Something I've been wondering, was how would WW1 have played out without Trench Warfare at least not at the massive trenches and no man's land level as we saw in our timeline. Like I've been wondering what would make this happen. I think the Marne would have to have been a loss for the French so the Germans kept up their momentum, and maybe even capture Paris, but maybe the French would counter attack. Essentially, I think it would have to consist of major victories or losses so both sides kept changing positions and control of regions.
Could we see a video where were Prussia rules India much like how Britain did, using the East India Compay or the VOC. Aslo you are doing a great job keep it up
Then I would be able to speak German rather than English
I don’t think that would have happened. Prussia wasn’t positioned very well to colonize India.
Josiah Foster austria did have a few ports in india via flemish merchants
No Commentary Mobile Gaming but that’s Austria and a few ports Is very different from the domination of a sub continent, plus The Austrian east India company was only around for ten years, further more the ports that you have mentioned. The fact is Prussia didn’t have enough money to colonise India and maintain their army (which was the thing keeping them alive on the continent.
Hehe Deutsch-Indien
What if we got a part two?
i was looking for you

The thumbnail flag of Germany makes it seem like it annexed the European Union of Albania, the Ottoman flag is changed for reasons currently unknown, the Bulgarian flag seems like it annexed Poland and the Austro-Hungarian flag actually makes sense. 1/4 it is then.
The country of Georgia would have been a German protectorate, as when they declared independence from Russia, they asked Germany to make them their protectorate to keep them safe from the Ottomans. Maybe Morocco would have either regained independence, or become a German protectorate, as it is a very strategic area which would be good if they wanted to control the Mediterranean entrance.
What if the US only went to war with Japan during WW2? Love the videos.
With the Alliance winning The Great War, maybe it would've actually been worthy of having been called "The War to End All Wars".
The treaty of versailles and the stillborn Weimar Republic, the partitions of the ottoman empire: complete disasters out of a mix of incompetence, malice and greed... Maybe the Alliance was wrong in starting The War, but the Entente made sure to state politically that they didn't deserve their military victory.
Ww1 should have been won by the central powers ,the world could be way different ,maybe a better end than what's now going on.
@@lonewolf1300 I agree

It's quite funny, but although this picture is very known. It actually puts Bismarck into the main ground instead of Wilhelm the I. although it is his coronation. That picture actually was a present to Bismarck's birthday. And another picture was (probably) used in the Germany Empire where Wilhelm stood in the middle. Of course it is important to note that Bismarck was the who worked on the process but it still is a fact, that this picture was originally just a birthday picture for Bismarck, hence his central and *important* position.
Ah interesting one would be what if the Empire of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor United abs centralizes rather than be divided (hey, ASB scenarios have been done before).
You make some fascinating flags man. Stay well out there everybody, and Jesus Christ be with you friends.😊
What if the Franco-Mongol alliance was founded during the Mongol invasion of eastern europe?
Wha-
@@Modest-op2vv yes the Mongols wanted to propose a alliance between them and France , they gave them gifts and messages, but nothing came of it .
Zion Molina It was mostly the other way around, as France tried to coerce the mongols into aiding the crusader states
@@myohmy9000 oh, well it would still be interesting if the alliance had been formed.
Biracial Boy It could’ve been done. Hulagu Kahn’s favorite wife was Nestorian, and she would be the one to convince him to spare Christians in Baghdad, hell, Christians of the west even thought he might’ve been a descendant of Prester John. If his wife (Doquz Khatun) has enough sway and influence, and convinces Hulagu to fight on behalf of Nestorians, a Christian Ilkhanate would definitely be interested in joining the crusades.
I really liked this video I think dividing areas into ethnic lines are decent
Pretty good Szenario
Yet another time line better than ours.
what if Gorbachev restored the monarchy after abolishing the Soviet Union
13:18 wow it’s almost like this should’ve been implemented earlier.
Very neat
