**Kaiserreich** is a mod for the game Hearts of Iron IV, taking place in
|
|
an alternate 1936 where the German Empire won the First World War,
|
|
leading to dramatic changes across the world, notably the rise of
|
|
popularity of [syndicalism](syndicalism "wikilink") as the dominant
|
|
philosophy of revolutionaries, not communism. Praised for its realistic
|
|
and interesting alternate history scenario
|
|
|
|
## Lore
|
|
|
|
The notable point of divergence from our history is that Germany refused
|
|
to use unrestricted submarine warfare after the sinking of Lusitania in
|
|
1915, and British submarines sank a US ship taking Christmas supplies to
|
|
Germany. This leads to the US never entering the war, and the blockade
|
|
being lifted on Germany. Allowing Germany to force France into defeat by
|
|
1919 (through a combination of CGT-led strikes, mutinies and military
|
|
defeats) and eventually end the war in 1922.
|
|
|
|
In Russia, German intervention in the [Russian Civil
|
|
War](Russian_Civil_War "wikilink") destroys the [Black
|
|
Army](Black_Army_\(Ukraine\) "wikilink") and [Free
|
|
Territory](Free_Territory_of_Ukraine "wikilink") in Ukraine and
|
|
ultimately captures Moscow, defeating [Trotsky](Leon_Trotsky "wikilink")
|
|
([Lenin](Vladimir_Lenin "wikilink") had been assassinated in 1918 by
|
|
[Fanny Kaplan](Fanny_Kaplan "wikilink"))
