What if the Soviet revolution never succeeded (this would mean a successful Minor Asian Campaign, as the Turks wouldn't have Soviet backing, the communists of Greece wouldn't have allied with the soviets and the Turks, a possible Pontic and Armenian State would be created, almost assimilated to the Greek Kingdom/Empire, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia would have a common ally and supporter and would've become allies, Russia could fall into some sort of Nationalist uprising due to them loosing land and about half of their industry to Baltic, Ukrainian and Polish/Belarusian minorities (they were almost identical ethnic wise at the time) and Italy never had fascism due to them getting lands in Anatolia and Africa.
if the Bakker-Schut plan was implemented, it's likely that France and Belgium would also be expanded up to the Rhine. Luxembourg would also probably get expanded, though not by much.
idk. that would weaken germany too much probably. france would certainly take the saarland, and both belgium and luxembourg would indeed be expanded, but i dont think so far as up to the rhine. this would cripple germany, and practically render them useless as a buffer against the eastern bloc/ the soviets.
The music you use as background music during the section labeled “WW2” is a Dutch National Socialist song that was mostly used by the Dutch wing of the SS. Might not have been the best choice. Especially when you are talking about Dutch resistance to German occupation.
It's just good form to check the history of military songs used or written in the 30's and 40's before using them for things. Since it is clear he did not check the meaning of the song beforehand, he got lucky he did not pick a song that is widely known by the Dutch public, or one that contains horrendous nazi sentiments like other Dutch SS songs do.
To be fair, the last time the Western European/US forces forced Germany to pay for everything, it led to a ridiculously unstable economy and absolutely broken Germany... One that Germany would never forget, nor would all those who suffered due to the terrible economic crisis.
The title makes zero sense "what if the netherlands won WW2". They did win lmao they just didnt gain any land. If I recall correctly they only gained one German city which was then returned to Germany years later. Why didnt the Netherlands gain anything? We didnt do jack sh in comparison to the greater powers.
In 1949, the Netherlands unilateraly annexed a couple of german territories along the border, most of them small and unpopulated. The exception were two larger areas of land, one (Elten) close to Zevenaar in Gelderland, the other (Tüddern) near Sittard in the south of Limburg. These two areas were annexed to the Netherlands as the two ‘drostschappen’ Elten and Tudderen. These territories were returned to Germany in 1962, with the exception of the eastern slope of the Duivelsberg near Nijmegen. This is thus the only lasting territorial gain the Netherlands made after WW II.
I doubt it that it would be 10 million. Germany as a united country wasn't that old (1871) and there were already 2 world wars, who ruined some families and cities. Not exactly what you called a 'dream start'. Some areas like Ostfriesland had quite some shared history with The Netherlands. So yeah there would be some people ongezellig, but I doubt if it would be 10 million.
Battles continuid in Zeeland. Which took around two weeks ifirc? Not sure on that though. Edit: Zeeland held out a few days more, but not weeks. 10th of may we were invaded and Zeeland capitulated at the 18th.
I personaly think Markermeer would still be developt and Flevoland would still be made eventuely. The project was already on its way in the 30's and the Germans helped develop it further in the 40's
Shush the Geuzenlied is older and was even used in the resistance and binnenlandse strijdkrachten (allthough not this version) its a banger piece of music
@@JM4rch Well technically it is a rump state, as large parts were either taken by the French(Artesië and Picardië) the Germans(Oost-Friesland & Gelderen) as well as became independent(Belgium and Luxemburg). Although not every part claimed by the bakker-schutplan had been Dutch at some point, all of it was united in the Frankish Empire.
one problem i have is that the norodoostpolder had already been made at this point, and the flevopolder would have too, so not including them is rediculous
i've made videos on Germany keeping lands before, and them winning WW1, so I'm not. Its just most interesting 20th century scenario involve them losing more lands

Yeah it’s already pointed out by many, no offense to him but he stares kinda weird because of his camera light (I think)
@maxthetube8466 The video of him speaking doesn't add anything to the video, no disrespect to him, of course.

I have been thinking the exact same thing. I just didn't want to come off disrespectful, or tell him how to run his channel.

What if napoleon accepted the Frankfurt proposal?
i noticed the Orthodox Icon in your background, are you Orthodox and if so what sect, as in what national Orthododx church do you belong to?
Hey would the Warsaw pact still exist as West Germany entry in nato in 1955 is was made the Soviet’s create the Warsaw pact?
Just saying, for Flevoland the Noordoostpolder was already layed dry by 1942, so it would still exist
The question is, in that scenario, how many provinces would that alternate Netherlands have?
10 million Germans forced to watch ongezellig

With the unfortunate side effect of Frisian being extinct thanks to those more intense "dutchifying" policies.
