This is a custom made history from my imagination and some paradox games.

So how did WWII start in this world? In WWI 1912-1918 the "Extérieur Alliance" beat the "Dezarussian Alliance" or also known as the "League Alliance" and severely punished the members of the League Alliance which prompted the start of WWII. (More background info later)

I am sure you have no idea what the political map looks like, so here, this is the Pre-Treaty of Dezarus 1919 aka pretty much a treaty of Versailles. Year 1915 mid WW1 and portrays Italian Civil War

.

Here is the Post-Treaty of Dezarus 1919 (Year 1930)

HISTORY

So as this is a complete different timeline from our own I will have to explain everything from the beginning.

The Balkan League has been a triumphant nation in Europe that started in the 8th century with Hvalimir Belojevic (The Great) who managed to secure the Serbian Kingdom starting with just a county in the Balkans. However he met his demise on his deathbed finally at age 92, roughly a week away from his 93rd birthday. Accomplishing many things that he believed would secure his Dynasty and give it a foothold in Europe he died peacefully. His son Vlad the Ill-Ruler ruled for 1 month before dying himself leaving the way for Dmitar I (The Great) his son. Luckily for Dmitar, Hvalimir had given him much of his titles as he had a feeling Vlad would not last long. This gave Dmitar a good push forward. Eventually Dmitar had devised a plan to put a Belojevic on the throne of Hungary. However the rulers were not so stupid as he thought so he married one of his cousins fat daughters to an Arpad for luck that he may become Emperor one day. However in Aquitaine the king of was indeed so stupid, Dmitar had devised a matrilineal marriage of his daughter with Carloman the Terrible and eventually the Belojevics had taken over Aquitaine. News got around that the kingdom of Great Moravia had a female ruler so Dmitar had planted a seed there as well. 3 decades later Dmitar's seed in Hungary had grown, the nation had a female ruler which enabled him to push for a claim of Jeno Belojevic (Son of Milka Belejevic and Otto Arpad) to become King of Hungary. After a long war Jeno "the Usurper" had taken control and the Belojevics started sprouting everywhere. But Jeno had no male children and the one he had died so his daughter had taken over but she made a normal marriage so Hungary was lost but after about 100 years of constant warfare between Serbia and Hungary the war was settled, the Belojevics had retook Hungary under their dynasty. By the mid 12th century Viktor the Liberator/Great had formed the nation that we now know as the Balkan League. Enabling each nation in the Balkans to have its own Autonomy the League consisted of 5 "states" ruled under the crown of Belgrade. The states were Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Montenegro, Bulgaria, and Wallachia (Later Romania). By now the League had just one state to conquer to make Viktor's dream come true. To conquer Greece and Constantinople from the Byzantine's. However this was not so easy but eventually the Erikslav Belojevic had done it in the 14th century crippling the Byzantines and leading way for the Islamic Invasion which was fought against with help from the League mid 15th century in the "Orthodox Crusades". But during this time the League had many new enemies such as the South German States to their north who were much more economically powerful. Though with their intricate web of alliances the League managed to fight back and gained the state of Slovenia. With many wars over 500 years between the League and the South Germans there was great hatred on both sides towards the other. In the 1600's Byzantium however was not looking good the Muslim invaders had taken over 80% of their territory so the crusades started to fight back the invaders and eventually Byzantium had regained all of Anatolia and about 1/4 of the middle east. Also during the 1600's the Swedish Empire took over Copenhagen, Norway, and Finland. So they formed the Kalmar Union despite not having Denmark in. In Europe the state of Dezarussiya was heavily favored by the League due to having the same enemy Hungary and Poland which led a long alliance that lasted until the last day of the League. Eventually in 1724 the Belojevics had spread as far to the Russian Empire and by now Byzantium or the Roman Empire had converted to a more westernized state that was renamed to the Vizantiyan Empire adopting Cryllic as their alphabet and slowly modernizing the laws of the nation into a more westernized type. By 1834 the greatest war ever had started with the South German States, the greatest military mastermind in history Dietrich Bolek who had taken over the South German States and reformed the government into a republic had waged several great wars against his neighbors in which the League, Hungary, Russia, France, Aquitaine, and the North German States fought hard to repent. Eventually the Monarchy was re-established in the South German States and the Karling dynasty had continued to rule. By 1846 a great civil war started in Great Moravia between the Czechoslovakians and the Polish who wanted independence but in the end with the help of Dezarussiya and the League the Czech's won and reformed the nation into Poland-Czechoslovakia which gave the poles autonomy and greatly satisfied them. At 1856 Russia had formally declared war on Dezarussiya for the state of Dezarus the Balkan League however chose not get involved as they could not handle the Russians. However the state caused more problems than it gave the Russians as history told. In 1861 the American civil war started between the USA and the CSA over tariffs and the CSA just wanted independance, but due to the CSA's good relations with the League through trade and diplomacy the League had promised the CSA help if they made slavery illegal which they agreed to the League supplied the CSA in which they won the war by 1864. In 1882 a war happened again between the CSA and the USA named the "Continuation War" however it only lasted 2 years and ended with a stale mate but both nations promised peace for the future. By the end of the 19th century the League created its own alliance the "League Alliance" Balkan League, Kalmar Union, Poland-Czechoslovakia, Dezarussiya, and Aquitaine in response to the Outer Alliance which consisted of the South German States, France, Netherlands, Denmark, (Later North German States), England, and the Vizantiyan Empire.

WWI
On January 6th 1912 Ivan Belojevic the heir to the throne of the Russian Empire was assasinated by Dezarussian nationalists in the city of Dezarus. Due to this the emperor of the Russian Empire had declared war on Dezarussiya on February 26th 1912. This called the League Alliance in so the Russians temporarily joined the Outer Alliance. The first few years of the war the League Alliance was scoring high but once the North German States joined in 1915 the League Alliance started to fall due to being overwhelmed on all sides. The same year the Italian Civil War happened between the Communists who promised peace to the people and the Monarchists. This effectively brought Italy out of the war. By 1918 October 12th the war ended but the peace treaty of Dezarus was signed in 1919. The effects are listed below...

Kalmar Union: Is to give Norway, Iceland, and Greenland to Denmark. To give Danzig to the North German States, and Osel to the Russian Empire and pay Reparations.

Aquitaine: Transfer the Canary Islands, Ghana, and Madagascar colony to France as well as some bordering lands to France. Aquitaine is allowed to keep Dmitar Belojevic in power but has to pay reparations.

Italy: Not punished due to ongoing civil war

Dezarussiya: Annexed by the Russian Empire

Poland-Czechoslovakia: Poland is to be transferred and integrated into the Russian Empire as well as some territories given to the North German States from Poland, monarchy de-established and nation given a democratic government. War reparations.

The Balkan League: To give Moldavia region to Russia, Split Croatia among Hungary and the South German States, to Give Crete, Rhodes, several other islands, and Constantinople to the Vizantiyan Empire, Gibraltar given to South German States. To have a reduced military of up to 60,000 men, Stripped of navy no ships above 40 Tonnes, No Air force, reparations, Hungary to occupy Wallachian Oil Fields, Government changed to a democracy (Belojevic Rule toppled).

A second Continuation war almost happened between the Union States and Confederate States during WWI however averted. Following the end of WWI a Aquitinean and Balkan war veteran by the name of Visarion Belojevic (Born 1895 Sofia, Bulgaria) who was an irrelevant member of the dynasty before the war who owned nothing goes back to living in the League in the city of Athens. There he stays in the army until 1926 when he comes across an underground group of people who call themselves the "Yellowists" he participates in meetings with the group and writes the book "My people and Yellowism" which becomes a best seller. The situation in the League is terrible at this point in time the democratic government does nothing and the country goes further and further in debt which prompts large support for the Yellowist party which is especially increased due to Visarion Belojevic's last name (Many people remember the days of prosperity during the Belojevic rule). Visarion is given control of the Yellowist party in 1928 and as he realizes it would take a couple years for him to win the elections he decides to start a coup d'etat to overthrow the government and establish a yellowist dictatorship (1929). Due to this the short Serbian Civil War 1929 starts which lasts only 3 month. Visarion Belojevic is begged by his family members to re-establish the monarchy however he says monarchies are not fair due to not disabling the opportunity of a good ruler not part of the dynasty or the heir to not rule. Soon in the North German States the nation a young German Dietrich Adler wins the elections and the nation itself becomes a Yellowist Dictatorship. He pushes the South German States and the North German States to unite however the South Germans refuse to unite due to the North German government type. This starts hostilities amongst the North and South Germany and brings the North Germans and the League closer together eventually forging an alliance. the Union of Soviet Italian Republics also allies itself with the League. Czechoslovakia itself changes its government to a Yellowist Dictatorship in 1935. The spread of the idealogy puts the Monarchist nations under threat which become hostile to any Yellowist Nations.

In the League however Visarion re-builds the economy of the League efficiently within two years of his rule. By 1933 after Hungarian Soldiers attack civilians in the occupied territory Visarion decides to march into the territory demanding the Hungarian soldiers to retreat back to their country which puts an end to Hungarian activity in the League. Visarion also decides to rebuild his navy with the help of an veteran Admiral Nataniyel Avilov launching the TLS (The Leagues Ship) Hvalimir the best battle ship yet at 42 tonnes which was an extraordinary feat. Even though they had surpassed the limit the Outer Alliance decided not to press on it. He had done the same with the army, and the air force rebuilding it from scratch.

But on April 2nd 1941 Visarion asked for the Hungarians and the South Germans to give Croatia back to the League in response to the Croatian Protest in March and the Croatian Massacre in Zagreb started by the South Germans. However they declined and so on April 5th 1941 the League along with Czechoslovakia declared war on the South German States, Hungary, and Vizantiyan Empire. The rest of the Alliance Denmark, France, Netherlands was also called in by South Germany but due to no land connection they couldn't do much to help their allies. The North German States, Aquitaine, and USIR waited to see how the war would go and if it went positively they would join. The South Germans and Hungary were steamrolled the Vizantiyans pushed back to Anatolia by the end of 41'. This caused the North Germans and USIR to join to finish off the weakened South German States. Later Aquitaine joined in as well.

The Rest is secret :) How fun to go in blind knowing least about what happens in the future like WWII where you can be like "Oh man that nation is going to attack well gonna have to be prepared". Unless I get huge revolts for this it will remain in my head.

Given what we generally know about how PDX architect their games, it's perfectly possible to start on a mod design I think. Also research and art-assets are things you can start doing well in advance of the game.

I'm excited to read about this, @Dromido

Sorry guys! I accidentally clicked enter before I finished my thing and Kaiser Death IV no this is just a rough draft and I have created my own story for this on paper already but when the game comes out I will create this mod for sure.

And all you other people got confused that this was a thing about factions, it isn't haha.

A couple of quick thoughts on how to present the story- I'm eager to read more but I feel like a lot of mods (even ones I'd like to work on!) struggle to provide easy access to the story behind it:

-I'd suggest cutting down the membership of each alliance, especially if you don't have them doing much of anything. Like Sweden or Azberbaijan or Tunisia. I'm suspecting even if in your history they had sent troops to support the Great War it was very minor. Sometimes Sweden can just stay neutral :)

-Can you, in a later post, group up countries by their politics/ideology if that's a significant axis of tension between countries?

-Can you provide a quick set of bullet points on key divergences from our history that got us to the start of the game? Like I notice you have a USA/CSA split. Was that just the CSA didn't lose the American Civil War, or something else?

-Also, can you asterisk any 'fictional' countries you might provide more detail on later? Like the Sultanates and so on?

1. Actually Sweden and Azerbaijan have an important role in my game. Tunisia more or less as well when it comes to the Spanish Civil war. Sweden is important on the Karelian Front and Azerbaijan (which is bigger than the one irl) plays a significant role in forcing the Vizantiyan Empire into a two front war which cripples the Vizantiyans and it is important to the "Allies" for their oil.

2. Yes I can from the get-go I can say the League Alliance is made up the nations hate for th

3. CSA/USA split was because during the civil war the Balkan League supported the CSA over the USA due to having high trade relations and being in contact via the League's colony in the indies later known as "United Indies" and yeah I will add stuff like that I will go into 100% detail just I made this in a hurry due to posting it early on accident.

4. Yup.

This is not alternate history, it's more fantasy. But if you have fun with this mod it's okay, Some may try it when they will be tired of the vanilla game or other mods.

Also I have just updated the history for my story going back to the start of the Dynasty (Belojevic) itself.

I like everything about the scenario except the part of the Tunisian Republic in Portugal. That's not right. You should change it for a Empire of Hispania, adding all of Iberia under a single polity. You can also call it the Iberian Union or Iberian Kingdom or Federation of Hispania.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperator_totius_Hispaniae

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iberian_Federalism

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iberian_Union

Nice USIR and Kalmar Union by the way. Really alternate scenarios.



Habsburg Coat of Arms during the Iberian Union inserting the coat of arms of Portugal over those of Castile and Aragon.

I see what you mean and whilst it may have taken me some MONTHS to even get the idea across I have decided that YES. Iberia will be in place of Tunisian Republic of Portugal. Haha tt Tunisian Rep. is too mainstream in place of Portugal :p.

>"Union of Soviet Italian Republics"

Why would the Russian word for Council be in the name of an Italian Republic?

>"Saffarid Empire"
The dynasty died 1000AD. What's the point of divergence here?

The alliances are also far too big and boring.

i think the Qajars or Safavids should do the purpose in case of Saffarids. if it is a must to have a historical name in an alternate history.
also the "Communist Republic of Italy" is good enough to replace Soviet thing.

1.Yes Soviet is a Russian word however it the definition does not imply anything in allegiance to Russia or Russians in fact it means to advise/and or council therefore it is a universal word not just tied to the USSR.

2. This is alternative history so the Saffarid Empire survived as played out in my game however they are not powerful due to being behind in tech a bit. (In place of Iran/Persia)

3. Alliances in real life are big an boring too EX: Allies USA, Britain, France, Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Italy, Yugoslavia, USSR, Poland, Greece, Mexico, Canada, etc.
Axis: Germany, Italy, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Finland, Japan. Point is I think what you are trying to tell me is the main alliances are too long for example the Allies main powers are USA, Britain, and USSR and Axis is Italy, Japan, and Germany.

1.Yes Soviet is a Russian word however it the definition does not imply anything in allegiance to Russia or Russians in fact it means to advise/and or council therefore it is a universal word not just tied to the USSR.
It wouldn't be used by the communists if communism neither originate from Russia nor first take control of Russia.

What? Alternative history friend there are no rules, it could very well originate from Italy as the birth of Communism (Sovietico is Soviet in Italian). Either way I have stuck long enough with USIR (since July) and I just like the letters that make it up U S I R make it look bad ass.
