I wonder if Dmitry and Molotov will have a final meeting over peace negotiations with the Reich. I imagine Molotov will be the one actually speaking with Otto though.
As I've previously hinted at, the end of the war doesn't mean the end of the struggle. The war will have serious consequences.For better or for worse, the war is over.
I fear winning the peace to be the difficult part of this war, though, even compared to the Soviet storm at the beginning.
Will the Reich get all it wants, or will peace prove elusive even at what appears to be the end?
Wait, what? Oh, no. No no no no no. You're going to do... Oh no
Actually, I wasn't trying to imply anything lol. Though yeah, I did imply there were equivalents for Soviet atrocities. Ukrainians do not exist in this universe because the circumstances that led to the development of their culture do not exist. The atrocities were directed at Lithuanians, Greeks, Germans, Georgians, Finns, and Mongols. In one of the early updates, I talked about how Lithuanians were being deported to Siberia, and in HOI3 I talked about Deromanization (although I seem to have abandoned that since then; I'll probably bring it up after the war). And in-game, Russian culture has almost completely displaced Mongol culture in the former Yavdi (not part of the plan, but it doesn't conflict with my plans anyways). I'll provide details with the culture map in the 2000s update, and I'll explain what happened at some point.Zen did imply that the Soviet committed some atrocities before and during World War 3. It´s not impossible that they did what your´re implying here.. Tho I´m pretty sure Rutherian/Ukrainian culture dosn´t exist in a significant way like our timeline regardless. If anything, the Soviets are more likely to commit crimes on the German/Greek, Lithuanian and/or Mongol minorities than the people living in OTL´s Ukrainian´s land since it would be inhabited by Russians here.
You were talking about the Holodomor there weren´t you. Again, it would probably be against Lithuanians, Fins and/or Mongols in TTL.
That's assuming Otto is willing to talk to this man. He has a grudge with the man who stole half of his empire forty years ago.I wonder if Dmitry and Molotov will have a final meeting over peace negotiations with the Reich. I imagine Molotov will be the one actually speaking with Otto though.

I wasn't trying to imply that. One must remember that this isn't the cold war as we know it. There are no 2 blocks of power who can destroy oneanother, but there are 3 who can do that. I was implying that with the Soviets gone, the Chinese might be up to something. But hey, nice try.Actually, I wasn't trying to imply anything lol.

>muh not real communism“I made some stupid decisions in 1944,” Molotov said, “I was young and angry because of what happened to Leon, my friend. And I know an apology can’t make up for what I did to the Occupied Territories, and I know you won’t forgive me, but I just want you to understand. Marx didn’t envision a dictatorship like the kind I ran. That was Lenin’s vision, and I completely bought into that.”
You're saying that Sybysla (or whatever her name was) is going to be returned to the throne? Anybody know what she looks like again?!?Molotov nodded. “You want the Tsaritsa to return,” he said, “The daughter of the man who ran our country into the ground seventy years ago. But I suppose it’s necessary, if it’ll stop this unnecessary bloodshed and bring stability back to Russia.”
Now that you bring that up, the Chinese might actually get up to something...I was implying that with the Soviets gone, the Chinese might be up to something. But hey, nice try.
Comrade Molotov's going to make Lenin look like a filthy anarchist! Or not.>muh not real communism
I think we agreed way back in the HOI3 thread to have Sbyslava use Queen Wilhelmina's portrait, though I don't remember if I ever used it (since the AI messed up everybody's cabinets anyways).You're saying that Sybysla (or whatever her name was) is going to be returned to the throne?

Go ahead.Looks like Russia and the territories the occupied territories will be scarred for decades to come. I wouldn’t be surprised if the people of the Reich will still have a deep hatred of Russia for what’s its done to their people and seek to punish them like Germany In both World Wars In OTL and probably worse than that. Tho Otto probably won’t do that since the Russian monchary is coming back and he will just punish the equalists. It’s gonna be a difficult task to rebuild Russia after the millions of people dead in the worst war after WW2 (and probably one of the worst in all of history from the causlties Zen estimated earlier) Btw, can I pm you about my interlude so far at some point?
I’m also wondering if the SPR will be that popular since Molotov publicly endorsed them in front of many reporters. I mean, through he is redeeming himself somewhat, he’s still the man that occupied Roman lands and started the Cold War that lead to WW3. And he nuked three Roman cities too remember.At last, the war is over. We're gonna need a world update once the dust settles, but Molotov's words remain. What will the Reich be like in fifty years? Is his warning just his own bias, or perhaps there's some truth to his predictions?
I didn't take enough pictures for a proper world update (which will come in 2000), but I did take screenshots for places with notable border adjustments. I think you already know where most of those adjustments are.At last, the war is over. We're gonna need a world update once the dust settles, but Molotov's words remain. What will the Reich be like in fifty years? Is his warning just his own bias, or perhaps there's some truth to his predictions?
The SPR would probably remain as popular as it did before the war, if not a little bit more popular due to its support. The news could twist Molotov's words as either an endorsement or just a personal preference, depending on their ideological stance. Right-wing news channels would certainly portray it as an endorsement, while left-leaning and ideologically center channels would downplay it, saying of course Molotov would support the Reich's largest socialist party. It's not like he has a choice on which party he likes.I’m also wondering if the SPR will be that popular since Molotov publicly endorsed them in front of many reporters.

He did make some good points there tho, which is werid since the equalists, especially Valentin, most of the time make hippocracies and strawmans when they aren’t oppressing people.
P.S. At least he signed the treaty on a hopefully big desk.
Also thanks for accepting my intite Zen.
Thanks. And I'm just getting started. I'm not even halfway through with this yet.

In Soviet Russia, joke laughs about you!“I love comedies.”
I kinda assumed that the Eimericas would end up as TTL´s Middle East or North Africa and Russia would just have the economic and social devastation and consequences of OTL´s Germany or TTL´s India for their actions, maybe with casualties as big or worse than OTL´s Soviet Union in WW2.I return now, in your hour of... oh... I see... They occupied ALL of Russia?... and the UPM landed in Mobile and still haven't been pushed out?...
Well darn, it seems like I have missed the party.
Also, just predicting now that this world's Russia will be our world's North Africa and the Middle East, with the Empire trying to stamp out radicalism in a region devastated by the previous rulers' poor decisions.
