Some more thoughts on a Dietsch Empire scenario:
- After Flanders has been unified with Dutchiestan, there should definately be an event where the newly formed Diets empire asks South Africa to join. This was, after all, part of their ideology - I'd link you, but unfortunately every on-line source I can track down is in Dutch. South Africa should have a smaller chance of accepting, though (like 65/35 or something).
- I am not quite sure if a Dietsch empire should recieve cores on Indonesia, like vanilla Netherlands does... However, nobody having cores on Indonesia might mess with the worlds supply of rares, and releasing colonies surely wasn't in anyones line of thinking then. I guess you would have to consider what would be best gameplay-wise, then.
(same with Dutch Guyana)
- I assume that Belgian Congo would not be included, as it is now part of Freistaat Mittelafrika?
- If Flanders and Dutchiestan were to go to war over the Verdinaso thing, and Flanders were to capture Amsterdam, perhaps you could make the victory result in a Chinese-minor type of annexation, where the newly formed Dietsch empire would end up with the Dutch army and navy intact. Otherwise, you'd risk the fact that the Dietsch empire would have no troops in Indonesia or ships to transport them there, witch would make it way to easy for an expansionist Japan. Same with the diplomatic route, of course, and the same for South Africa.
- I don't know to what extent you can mess with names, but I had a thought:
the name 'Dietsch' came into disuse when ze Germans abused it in WWI and II to suit their 'Culturpolitik', i.e. they made it a synonym to 'Deutsch', claiming the Dutch-speaking people were a 'branch' of the Greater Germanic stock. This was one of the main reasons why the Dietsch ideology came into discredit after the wars, and why they changed the name of their ideology to 'Heel-Nederlands' or 'Whole-Dutch'. So, perhaps you could make the name they assume dependant on wether they unite as a reaction to an expansionist France or a Germany that wants to outright annex them. I don't know if that would mean you'd need an extra tag, though.
- You can't have a fully unified Dietsch empire without them claiming back French Flanders (Dunkerque, Lille and Calais). Perhaps you could give them cores on these lands, or have them annex them if Germany were to defeat France in a war or something. Just a thought.
I'm really getting into this alternate history stuff
