Hello everyone!

This is going to be a very ahistorical AAR with a prologue to every country where I'll try to explain why the map looks like it does.

If you got any ideas of a countrys timeline you are welcome to make suggestions.
 
North German Federation

In 1860 Prussia together with all the northern States in Germany formed the North German Federation. They quickly began expanding and seized Schleswig- Holstein from the Danish after only 2 months of fighting. Bismarck then turned his eyes toward west and declared war on the Netherlands and the Belgian Empire. After 6 months of fierce fighting the North German flag was shown in Amsterdam and the Dutch surrendered and switched side. As the Germans invaded Belgium the French declared war on the Germans and allied themselves with the Belgians because they wanted to keep Belgium as a buffet between the two countries but France still weak from the Napoleon era was no match for the well trained and well equipped Germans and 2 years after the war started the four nations signed a peace treaty that said that both Belgium and the Netherlands was to be absorbed into the North German Federation. The French had to demobilize their army and pay war debts to Germany and promise not to have an army bigger than 200 000 men.

After the success against the French and the Low Countries the North German Federation turned their eyes south towards the minor States of southern Germany. The states sensing the danger quickly joint forces and formed the Bavarian Coalition named after the biggest state in the Coalition.

In 1870 the North Germans invaded the Bavarian Coalition. At first the North Germans seemed unstoppable and was quickly reaching the capitol of the Coalition, Munich. Since the start of the war the Bavarians had been negotiating with Austrian. And when the North Germans reached Munich after 7 months of fighting the Bavarians got desperate and signed a contract stating that the Austrian will receive Military Passage and that Austria will have their representatives in the Bavarian Coalitions Reichtag. The Bavarians pretty much gave up their freedom for the next 100 years.

Munich was lost before the Austrian troops reached the front but they fierce fighting broke loose as the Austrians started to push back the tired North German troops. 1 year after the fall of Munich the Austrian troops reached the outskirts of Munich and was treated as liberated. The Austrians kept pushing and another 1½ year later they were reaching the original border of Bavaria and North German Federation. Otto von Bismarck then realised the war was over and send a messenger to the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph asking for a cease fire. Franz Joseph accepted it and in 1874 Bismarck and Franz Joseph signed a peace treaty in the town of Nurnberg in Bavaria.

The North Germans were to take the full responsibility of the war and pay war debts to both Bavaria and Austria; they would also give up all their big cannons and war ships to the Austrians. At last they would release one of their union states, Saxony, as an independent state which would serve as a buffet between North German Federation and Austria and to some extend Bavaria.

Even though The North Germans lost the war the Bavarians had been the true looser of the war, they’d lost the most men but more importantly they’d lost their freedom to the Austrians. The Bavarian Coalition was no more than an Austrian puppet.

Since the defeat against the Austrians the North Germans have been longing for payback. Now, 62 years, later the North Germans are more than ready to take revenge. Will Bavaria join forces against Austria or will they honor their agreement they signed in despair more than 60 years ago?

Interesting setup you've got here.:)
 
I need a background on what happened with the Iberian union before I can contribute to this; but very interesting premise. :p
 
the basic idea is that portugal and spain was at first their own countries but when the moroccan offensive in Iberia started it forced the two countries to join forces against the moroccan threat.

Everyone is welcome to pick a country and make up a history about that country. You can either post the history here or send me a message with it and I'll look at it and see if it would be something that I can use =)
 
The Teutonic Order

In 1410 the Order manage to defeat a Polish- Lithuanian Army and that lead to that the Lithuanians were greatly weakened and was forced to give up a large area in the north and after that the Teutons lived undisturbed for a long time until the Russians in 1820 tried to Seize Estonia and Livonia. The Russians tried to attack through the land strip north of the lake Peipsi- Pihkva but the Teutons manage to stop the offensive quickly and a trench war was starting. Neither side had any success until 2 years into the war when the Swedes, seeing that the Russians were hold up with the Teutons, attacked Russian in an attempt. The Russians, seeing the Swedes as a more serious threat pulled away a majority of the troops from the Teutonic- Russian battle line to meet the Swedes in Finland. The Teutons noticing the decrease of Russian troops quickly seized the moment and scrambled all available troops and stormed the Russian lines, the Russians were taken completely off guard and were driven back. Half way to St. Petersburg the Russians send an envoy to the Teutons requesting peace.

A peace was signed and the Russians were forced to give up a large area to the Teutons. After that war the Teutons. Now, 1936, the Teutons have been a lot of political turmoil and the Russians looks east with hungry eyes. Will another war between the two countries emerge again or will the tensions blow past? Only the future can tell…
