German Empire

 

-Germany continues with its policy of reconstruction at all costs, the government is satisfied with the current estimate for reconstruction, and therefore it sticks with it. Over the past months German cities and towns find themselves in a much better position then they were a year ago. Roads have finally been cleared of rubble, water and utility services are finally back up and running, and for the most part, cities in the Rhineland are mostly live able once more. However there is still much to do in terms of reconstruction, as many buildings and factories are still half constructed, and churches often house displaced German residents, victims of the destruction of the brutal civil war.

 

-Germany denounces Britain for its blatant defiance of international law by passing militarized ships through the straits. The German Government finds the British Governments action to be heavily hypocritical, stating that while preaching about the importance of protecting democracy and freedom she is actively collaborating to deny these values the Bulgarian people, even if communism is a evil and wrong ideology.

 

-As a part of the Crusade called by the pope, the Kaiser allows a brigade of volunteers, numbering some 1,000 men, to fight under the name of god. While the Protestant Kaiser along with many other Prussian, and therefore Lutheran generals at first dismissed this, von Papen, a catholic, persuaded the military minds of Germany to permit the expedition. "It is important to maintain religious values alive and widespread in Germany, and to allow this people must love the Lord, and people show this Love in different ways." The volunteers are gathered from the army, and they are given specialized uniforms reminiscent of the Teutonic Order, which is their official name, given at the request of the brigade leader. The Kaiser, as well as the German High Command, ensures the brigade is armored and mechanized. The Brigade is to fall under the command of the Roman Forces to do with them as they wish.

 

-In a grandious ceremony held in Berlin and in Munich, a marriage is proposed between the crown prince of the German Empire, Louis Ferdinand, second born to Wilhelm III, and Irmingard of Bavaria. After a meeting between Rupprecht and Wilhelm, it is decided that they will be comonarchs, sharing equal power to rule. They will rule as Kaiser and Kaiserin, Emperor and Empress of one united German House. The children produced by this union will be part of a unified German House, called the House of Hohenzollern-Wittelsbach. To appease both Catholic and Lutheran populations of Germany, a Lutheran Ceremony is held in Berlin, and a catholic ceremony in Munich. The heads of both churches perform this highly anticipated event, both the Pope and the United Prussian Church leader. All Royals of Europe are invited to the wedding, and event is open to the public.(mod)

 

-The Government actively promotes fitness and good health in its population, and especially in the army. Being physically strong is heavily sexualised and romanticised through statues, government approved movies and stories,propaganda, and even in schools. Boys in schools are given more time for fitness and working out, and most schools are given a gym aswell as a Fitness teacher to ensure German Boys and the future men of the country are physically fit. Major cities also include multiple gyms, some being free or very cheap to ensure that boys and men can workout and become physically strong. This is all part of a campaign undertaken by the Kaiser himself to improve the condition of the overall German and make him superior to the other races of Europe. It should be noted that the Gyms have no racial stigmas or rules whatsoever. Fitness handbooks and Diet Handbooks are also made available in almost every bookstore, library, and school in Germany, and it is hoped that your average German can be a strong physical man, as well as sexually attractive. Parks also have fitness equipment, and the crown prince is even caught attending a personal outdoor gymnasium by multiple tabloids.(Mod)

 

-As part of the Fitness awareness, the German government seeks to increase birth rates to what they were before the war, employing much of the policies the red government has done, discouraging the use of contraceptives, and decreasing taxes incrementally with each children they have.(Mod)

 

-German High Command begins to phase out the horse from its ranks and replace it with the truck for its main transport vehicle, however they monitor this to ensure it doesn't effect reconstruction efforts.(Mod)

Saudi Arabia

 

Abdul Aziz's faces was plastered across Saudi Arabia. It was undisputed, he was King. House Saud had rose to total supremacy. The Italians had presented the perfect front to mobilize. And in one brilliant stroke the opposition and extremist had been outmaneuvered. Now they were in prisons, out of the nation, or the most likely cause, dead. Now the nations would run around the capital and monarchy. Gone were the days of tribalism and war lords. Now it was government, regulation, tax, the elements of state hood.

 

The first in a industrial line of policy will be enacted. The vast majority of the loyal Saudi forces are sent back into the reserves. They will be paid for the war, but also forced to hand their weapons in to local armories. The veteran core, and a volunteer force of recruits will begin. The Royal Army was now busy training up it recruits, to make an actual army. They were also policing the state, with a lack of a civil law force. To solve this issue House Saud begins to found a police organization. Loyal to the House, they would be trusted army veterans, civil servants, and family members. They will roam the nation, and set up local barracks. They will ensure the populace is paying taxes, and following the law. They will also handle the day to day crimes and disputes.

 

Agriculture will receive subsidies, as Saud's biggest economy. Farmers will be well paid, and protected by the police. Their prices will be regulated when exporting, to ensure money was made. New ways to farm and better equipment is looked into. Saudi now had access to the western market. It's biggest partner was the United States. With ARAMCO, a wonderful deal had been made. House Saud would get up to a 50% stock ownership of the company. They still also got regular tributes and free oil. With all this, the Americans were allowed to stay within the newly centralized nation. The deal would ensure the oil search continued.

 

Research with no expense spared will begin. For long time Autogyros had been popular and in military use. But no true build was existent. It would be perfect in Aziz's eyes to have them for desert warfare. And so the power of House Sauds treasury is put into it. Scientist from across the world are sought out. Preferably the German Focke, a master ming of aero dynamics. These men and women are offered the world. A massive salary, quarters in the Palace (Or a manse of their own not far off), a lab and factory to follow every theory, guards, personal assistants, and anything else they could ask for. A model is wanted for a dual rotor blade gyro. Something highly mobile, and also capable of packing a punch. The main idea though is to make it a base model. Something very sturdy and reliable that can be updated or built upon to make new models afterwards. Saudi scientist will also attend, and learn what they can.

 

The time to push ARAMCO further onto the market follows. Saudi Arabia begins to advertise the allures of their massive oil reserves. Any nation can buy barrels, at a state regulated price. They would ensure with their surplus oil would remain lower than the opposition if possible. This way Saud could beat out other oil companies with their low prices, and secure the contracts. Any nation is welcome to broker a deal.

Empire of Japan

 

OaNG_nZFXZJdYjLJxThm8RZoU7Aios5296tnbE26lHyn9Pfynk9wW2f1NNYKhBGdDflLakqDXuZkcXRzWZz-X5jnGj8FwsKTOfuKdP-P4LRaHLWKZaM51P8dQ1jLtSvAXge4p8PN

 

The Empire had peace in its time! Now it was time to begin further eliminating the elements of Korean and Taiwanese Nationalism. The Red Menace was now the primary concern when it came to Japanese Foreign Policy. However there was a State long untouched by the Colonial Powers and the Great Powers of Asia, the relatively minor Siam and it was now time to bring them into the fold as their agricultural industry could be the key to winning against the Communists in the East.

 

Military Actions

 

Divisions are cycled out to begin training in harsh conditions upon invitation from the United States, Japanese Infantry and Officers would begin their harsh weather training in Alaska. (Mod)

 

The Japanese would seek to manufacture more Type 97 ShinHoto Chi-Ha Medium Tanks, being unfortunately the best tank in its service and now at least with the advantages in oil Japan now has can mass produce them for swarming tactics. (Mod)

 

Domestic Actions

 

To incite Patriotism towards the Empire at large, the Japanese would begin the propaganda campaign within Korea and Taiwan concerning the Red Menace of Communism, how it wishes to erode all cultures and take away families. Some of which strikes the truth, other parts being hyperbolic. (Mod)

 

A Korean King from the House of Yi would be crowned in Seoul, with the Japanese carefully observing the Korean Customs in order not to upset them and in fact show solidarity as follow Asians of similar culture. (Mod)

 

Diplomatic Actions

 

The Japanese would seek to build ties with the Kingdom of Siam, an Independent Kingdom seemingly between two European Colonial Powers. Economic overtures are offered to the Siamese and they are invited for talks of formal diplomatic relations and members of their Royal Family is offered to visit Japan and vice versa. (Mod)

 

The Empire of Japan would also formally guarantee the Kingdom of Siam as an Independent State and make an additional statement declaring the Siamese Royal Family as the legitimate rulers of the State and no Republic or Communist influence would be tolerated attempting to topple the system in place.

 

Economic Actions

 

The Government would encourage the Mitsubishi Company to begin instituting the Kaizen System long term, promising to subsidize losses should the system see initial failure and recompense the Mitsubishi Company should the system be a total loss. (Mod)

 

The Japanese Economic Ministry would accept the offer from the Dutch, though would warn them that they will not accept attempted destruction of native industry. That Japan is fully prepared to pull out of the deal if it senses any misgivings from Dutch Industrialists attempting to con the Japanese. (Mod)

 

Research Actions

 

The Japanese would seek to create a Medium Tank that can at least match or require less numbers to match a single Russian Tank in the field either in a 1 to 1, or 1 to 3 basis. (Mod)

 

The Japanese would seek to pursue their rocket technology from the previous half of the year. (Mod)

Post-War Recovery

After the Tenth Crusade, the Empire has been severely damaged. While Thrace is recovering quickly, many other regions are heavily damaged. The foreign volunteers who came to the Empire have been offered citizenship and the right to settle in lands which have been cleared of  any danger. As well, Christians of Europe and the Middle East, as well as Kurds and Iranian peoples are offered to settle in these lands in exchange for aiding in the re-construction. Development is mostly focused on Western Anatolia at the moment. [Mod]

War in Bulgaria

With the Bulgarian Revolution leading to foreign intervention in the country, the Emperor calls for Tsar Boris III and Georgi Dimitrov, the leader of the BCP to meet in Corinth for peace talks. The UK and USSR are offered to come as observers. [Mod]

Prospecting in Thrace

With the recovery of Thrace going steadily, the government prospects for resources in the area and searches for possible oil reserves in the Thrace Basin. [Mod]

Recovering the Sciences

The Church and Empire work together to increase the education levels of the country. Engineering, both domestic and military, and Physics are given extra support to promote innovations to aid the re-construction.

Saudi Arabia

 

Abdul Aziz and his royal court were kept quite busy this year. What was usually a place of debauchery and excess had changed. Not assistants and family members bustled to and fro. They were all working for Abdul, and the House Saud. By the day foreign businessmen and diplomats are met and talked with. Many plans and laws are taking place and being formed. The palace represented the very center of the Saudi state. Here law is where the government runs, where all cogs eventually lead to. Riyadh was becoming more and more cosmopolitan. The need to accommodate the growing foreign class led to modernizing. The city sanitation plan, and other small things were now being taken seriously.

 

Riyadh[The Saudi Capital] resembled the experiment that was the new laws. Order would be taken to the rest of the state in time. But it would start in Riyadh. Public education for men was to become a city standard. Hospitals, police departments, fire houses, and all the other needed accessories of state are drafted. The city would follow a strict grow plan, and be kept under careful guard. Tourism was expected to boom with the announcement of open borders. The two most popular sites of Muslim culture to visit lay within Arabia. This and all the foreign investors and workers pouring in and being taxed would help. The city would be notoriously low on regulations of economy. They wanted to turn it into an international hub and tax haven for business. A university is planned to be built over the next ten years. The city though still holding to Sharia Law, was becoming a place of learning and high power. Arabs from across the peninsula were welcomed. All foreigners and their religion was tolerated. This slackening of old ideals represented Abduls true power. He and his tribes had won the throne. But now they were dead and he and his ilk would pave the true road to success. 

 

As stated open borders were now a Saudi norm. This was because of their newest foreign deals. The U.K and U.S had respectively offered to aid in a Saudi armament.  Alongside this foreign investment into Saudi was happily accepted. It would be a strict and through process to be accepted however. The Sauds did not want a flock of opportunist dabbling in their economy. Instead more trusted and backed individuals are more applicable. But with all this foreign capital, serious armament will begin. The U.S will be selling off naval ships to House Saud at a reduced rate, and will help with the ongoing military overhaul. Equipment and supplies will be bought, in small but constant rates. ARAMCO will be asked to consider opening a broad coalition of American oil companies. This will mean better production times, and the opportunity to expand even more as a coalition.

 

The U.K also was dictating some serious policy changes. The Saudis announced their official support to parliament and the King. They would be an ally, and supporter of the British Commonwealth. In return the U.K will send aid in various ways. Saudi Arabia and the U.K announce open trade and borders. British capital could flow in unabated, and Saudi resources out. Alongside this Saudi Arabia was now surrounded by U.K client states they could now let tourist in, and trade out. Commercial Grain companies jump on all this foreign investment and incentive. Recently aided by the government, they were slowly rising. All these new markets and mouths to feed would hopefully ensure stocks keep rising. The U.K will also help with the ongoing military overhaul, and will help Arabia found a true air force.

German Empire

Image result for German steel 1930

A steel factory near Berlin.

-The German Empire seeks to, through several key engineers and the help of top steel working companies such as Krupp, develop a new method of manufacturing steel. The current method to manufacture steel is outdated and has been used for decades, but however with a competitive global economy Germany has to be at the forefront of the metals market, and it should be with the high influx of dirt cheap hardy Scandinavian iron ore. Several German market analysts and economists perceive mixed projections on what will occur to the German economy if they do manage to create a much more efficient method of manufacturing iron. Some argue that since the country is in reconstruction mode, it will not have much of an effect now, but it will when reconstruction is finish. Others argue that it will take time to teach steelworkers and switch factory methods over, which will also cost money. And others argue that it will be extremely successful and it will be a boon to the German Economy. (Mod)

 

-German government officials have relayed the qualms of the people to the birth rate laws. After some indecisiveness in the German Reichstag, a unanimous agreement is passed which repeals the Birth rate encouragement laws. As a result of this, the scandal and back lash that occurred because of this eventually dies down as the calls of the people are heard.

Image result for German Empire propaganda

An example of Propaganda

-The Ministry of Propaganda, under the orders of the Kaiser and von Papen, release a new batch of propaganda to be spread all around Germany. The propaganda highlights German nationalism, good interfaith relations, the importance of being physically fit and having good morals such as bravery, courage, humility, modesty, and patriotism.(Mod)

 

-Germany, by some analysts or observers, could find itself lacking or finding itself behind in certain fields in the education of children. In higher education circles German scientists find themselves excelling beyond expectations, however the ordinary child finds itself behind. As a result of this, a great emphasis is put on trade and technical schools. The entire German schooling system is revamped. Students who do not perform well are given the choice to either go to a trade school, or a cadets school. Ordinary schools all around the country are ordered to give all students a variety of trades to choose from, and experienced and retired workers teach the students the basics on how to perform that trade, whether it be carpentry, steelworking, or plumbing. In the academics curriculum, money is invested into creating a new curriculum to make German boys and girls excel.(Mod)

Image result for sea oil wells 1940

-Germany looks into setting up offshore oil drilling wells in the North and Baltic Sea. Ships are sent out to both seas to test the ground there, and the reports gathered are to be sent back to the Government to analyse the possibility of setting up a wide array of oil drilling sites, in international waters in both the North and Baltic Sea. Preference is put in the Baltic Sea, where German Oil wells can be safer and more protected by the Kriegsmarine and German Armed Forces. The goal of this project is to obtain a steady and constant flow of oil to fuel the German Economy. (Mod)

 

-The Imperial House of Germany announces exciting news as Irmingard births a baby girl. She has taken the name Maria, and is baptized catholic and Lutheran in Munich and Berlin.

 

Military Affairs

Image result for german medium artillery 1940

A prototype being tested infront of Military Observers.

-To keep with the low expenses policy of the German Government, a new model of medium artillery is ordered to be manufactured.(Mod)

 

Foreign Affairs

-As a result of the British Expedition into Bulgaria, the Kaiser Wilhelm III in one of his regular addresses and speeches to the German people highlights something which brings to him a high level of discomfort. “The British Government have stressed that they have declare war against communism, and that they will fight against it. It is a noble endeavor indeed, communism is an evil that must be eradicated. However they are doing this by collaborating with the enemy, Yugoslavia, which is also communist. They are even helping them with officers, presumably of course.”  Wilhelm backs this up with British newspapers and sources, which he himself shows. (Mod)

The first half of 1945


 

A somber Stalin steps up before a crowd of press at the Kremlin.  “I shall spare the pleasantries, and move on straight to the subject at hand.  The Imperialist snake has shown its head once again, in Bulgaria. I have intervened in this conflict, not for the interests of the Soviet Union, as some would have you believe.  To the people of Bulgaria, I pledge you this: You have made the choice to move away from the capitalist system on your own terms, and we will respect your sovereignty and the will of the people.  After the legitimate government is firmly in place and the imperialists are driven from your borders, I pledge to withdraw and continue to provide the aid that the USSR has so graciously provided.  Bulgaria shall decide her own course.  We are brothers, my fellow Slavs, and in this moment of need, we are here.” Stalin takes a determined look at the cameras and moves on, “The British have invaded your lands! They seek to keep the status quo that has kept your people down, oppressed, poor!  Will you let them do it all over again? Long live the proletariat! The USSR will never let our Slavic brothers be tread down!” 

 

“It seems that the the imperialists are determined to strike at the USSR and our way of life, which dwarfs that of the west.  In light of the the current atmosphere created by British bellicose behavior, I have decided to mobilize the Red Army Reserves.”  Red Army Reserves are mobilized.


 

The USSR begins a surge of troops in Bulgaria, raising the current count to 600,000.  Thousands of T-34-85 models are deployed alongside the regular forces. They are dispatched across the front lines and instructed to take up positions and respond to any British attack proportionally.  Stalin offers for offensives to be jointly set up with Bulgarian communist party officials. Joint command brigades are set up, putting some Russian troops alongside Bulgarians, so they could fight side by side for the freedom of Bulgaria under Bulgarian officers. (mod)

 

The USSR provides the latest equipment to the Red-Bulgarian army, outfitting them with modern infantry equipment such as assault rifles.  (mod)

 

Operation Balkan Bulwark:

The USSR begins a massive investment into Red Bulgaria, providing funds to the fledgling Bulgarian communist state.  The Red Army engineer corps begins a series of infrastructure projects to build roads and infrastructure across the country.  Ports and airfields are set to be constructed to provide a steady stream of supplies to the Russian and Bulgarian soldiers at the front and civilians at home affected by the disruption of supplies.  Cooperating with the communist government, the USSR seeks to set up a job program to give every man a job at a living wage. Word begins to spread that Bulgaria is one of the most modern states in the Balkans, boasting significantly higher standard of living than its neighbors as a result of the communist revolution.   (mod)

The United States of America

 

Trouble in Alaska

President Long, anxious and upset after the failure of the American-Japanese training exercise. He begins by stating that it is ridiculous for any American to point fingers at the Japanese, as both platoons went missing, not just one. The Pacific Fleet would have detected any Japanese ships in the area, which makes smuggling the Japanese out impossible. Instead of hating the Japanese, the country should again unite and look East and West where communism looms. He mentions that besides the fact that the weather in Alaska means they simply could have all been lost in a storm, the territory’s close proximity to Russia could point to other sources. Search parties are dispatched to find the men, or their bodies, as well as potential communist spies or bases which may have managed to sneak into the territory. President Long ends his speech with another reminder, “Every man is a King in America”. [Mod Plz]

 

The Third Term

Continuing on civil rights, President Long states that his acts do not apply to just African Americans, but rather to all Americans no matter where they come from. He reminds Americans that the Japanese are also united against the “Red Menace” and that all of the United States must stand together in order to defeat this great ideological threat. Regardless of race, or past events, all Americans must stand together as one against something which could threaten the very future of the country. With a growing threat in South America, he also suggests a possible intervention to ensure the future of the continent as the home of democracy should the situation worsen in Europe or here. [Mod Plz]

 

The Long Programs

President Long again pushes for an increase in engineering and sciences, investing a portion of the money from the recent sale into paying for the tuitions of the students who show promise and wish to enter into fields which could prove strategically useful. [Mod for more research slots Plz]

 

Investment in the aviation and motor industries is also increased, pushing to improve their manufacturing methods and techniques. Investment is especially put into companies such as Boeing and Lockheed. Hoping to once again compete with Britain, the Long Administration seeks to begin funding the bright young minds of the future and continuing to innovate like the great tycoons did in the early 20th century. As more of the country joins in the Long initiative, corporate taxes are also slightly lowered, and subsidies offered for companies which can offer breakthrough designs and weaponry for the military and civilian sectors. [Mod Plz]

 

Research and Development

President Long orders two new types of armament and selects designs from companies for a new heavy tank and an upgraded rifle.

  • The T29 Heavy Tank is selected and ordered for research, a new model which will be needed to stand up against the armor of nations with superior tech. [Mod Plz]

  • Following minor improvements to the M1 Carbine, the Joint Chiefs of Staff order a selective-fire version of the weapon. They hope the be able to improve the efficiency of production, as well as making the weapon more effective. The upgrade would include as its main component, a selective-fire option, allowing the weapon to be fully automatic or semi-automatic. [Mod Plz]

 

Rearmament

The new Air Force is granted new airplanes, and an order for 5,000 new P-51 Mustangs to be built. Out of all that was ordered, 750 of these planes would be designated as carrier-variants and would be built as such. In addition to the fighters, 1,000 P-29 bombers are also ordered to be built. Upon completion, 500 of the new fighters and 50 of the new bombers would be sent to Naval Air Station Sigonella. [Mod Plz]

 

Mexico

Years after the Mexican oil expropriation, President Long reignites his concern with the country to their south. He calls them a hotbed for communist activity and cites their past support of Germany as a reason the country cannot be trusted. He has clear concerns with the country and fears the spread of the communism will reach them as well. [Mod Plz]

Holy Roman Dominion


 

 

Ministry of War
The Ministry of War decides on January 1st to begin pulling Papal troops and crusaders out of Anatolia in a fazed withdrawal plan, with the last Papal division planning to leave mid-1949. The Papacy, in a cost-saving measure, cuts half a million soldiers from the Papal army, this follows a general trend in military reduction as the communists in Turkey has been repulsed. 

 

The Templars, long forgotten, are reinstated as a small order occupying parts of Anatolia.

 

The last fascist sniper in the Alps, having survived for years raiding local villages and hunting, has finally surrendered. Delfino Borroni, with over one hundred and forty-eight kills, has decided to give up the fascist cause and join the Papal Army, seeking to amend his sins. This is heavily espoused by Italian press and this is seen as a major propaganda victory for Italians, seen as the end to the overthrow of Mussolini and the Papacy's subsequent military ventures. (Mod).

 

Repairing of Relations
With the tarnishment of Papal influence in Greece and Germany with widespread distrust in the Holy Roman Dominion, the Papacy begins to take matters into its own hands by increasing the amount of charity work done and releasing streams of propaganda. This propaganda focuses around heavily promoting "miracles" and other such kind events done by Catholic Priests throughout both nations media. (Mod).

 

In Greece, it is hoped the fazed withdrawal will calm tensions and the Papacy also begins small-scale funding to rebuild Christian churches throughout Thrace and Anatolia. Papal fanatics also begin settling down in Anatolia, a gesture of good faith and likely to create an elite class of armed Catholic farmers in the rugged countryside of Anatolia. (Mod).

 

Diplomatic Relations
Several thousand tons of food and humanitarian aid are sent monthly to Bulgaria by the Catholic Church, the Papacy, and it's supporters. Along with the aid, priests are sent to offer moral and religious guidance in these times of war for both sides. (Mod).
