I think this would lead to Germany victory, not because the Spanish are useful allies because the manpower needed to guard the Spanish-French border would mean the western front would less guarded. Likely leading to the French being overwhelmed in 1914 which would lead to German victory
I'd reckon France would loose its northern departments to Belgium, or what's left of it, as recompense for loosing the eastern Cantons, while similarly weakening France.
Italy can join central powers in a different way in this scenario italy performed better in the brothers war so they get almost all of disputed territory so they will join central powers to gain french land as they already will have almost all of there disputed land with austria
The lands they ask from Austia were usless : little to no italians there , no resources and very few people at all Unlike the Savoy , Corsica ,Tunisia and Malta
@@flavius5722 Well, it's kinda complex. I'm from these territories, at the old border between kingdom of Italy and Austrian empire. It's true that they weren't particularly rich but 1) they had actually a lot of Italians 2) They had some rich port metropolis, like Fiume and Trieste 3) They were strategically important to reach the alps and defend if Austria would attack Italy in the future (before, the border was on the hills of Friuli and Veneto, really difficult to defend). Savoy and Nice were richer but, also, ceded to France in good faith for their help in creating Italy. There wasn't any rightful reason to reclaim them. Corsica wasn't rich nor particularly useful, and it's still an issue for France today. What Italy wanted from France was Tunisia, it was settled by Italians who thought they were playing the long game and then swooped quickly by France, Italy wasn't happy at all about that.
@@MS-ff8zo I really dont think were much italians there ,you heard about italians în Corsica, Malta today I never heard of a single italian in Dalmatia , but I heard about Slovenia claiming land on the italian border I was myself in Trieste , nice city but nothing to deserve a war I dont see how Italy creating a tail on the east cost of the Adriatic is making easier to defend your territory The fact that they trade territory for help should' ve make them to realize that France is not a reliable ally , the dont even these small dalmatians teritories after the war , but Italy claim the french ones in ww2 Austria was not a treat anymore , they were to weak to invade Italy
You should definitely make a part 2!, it is really interesting!, and also, i like specially the videos where spain is involved, not just because its my country, but also its intervention, just like italy can turn the tides of a conflict
I liked the idea of this video but i considered it very unrealistic. -Like wouldnt the italian colonies have just been taken down like the germans colonies in our timeline? -And during the actual war you made it feel like the british werent even there, as you were only mentioning the french armies when the british fought in france too. -Regarding the italian army, in our timeline they struggled against the austrians which werent reliable allies, so why would they be defeating stronger french armies on a similar type of frontline? i mean they couldnt even beat abysinnia -and eventually the americans would get involved in a similar way than they did to our timeline they would still sell supplies to the british -also the germans couldnt do lots of quick advancements like you showed where they advanced to normandy because of trench warfare. anyway, sorry for lots of criticism i still enjoyed the video but some parts just didnt make sense to me. i would like to see a part 2 and have a good day.
I appreciate the criticism, but it's not supposed to be too realistic, just inspired by history. What you're pointing out is true, but it would create for a long and somewhat boring video. People lose interest if I go too much in depth, so I decided not to.
The Italians could naval invade instead of having to cross the alps. That's the only reason the Italians had trouble against AH in the first place. The mountainous terrain. All the Austrians had to do was sitting in their trenches, opening fire on italian troops while they had to try and reach them before opening fire.
@@idk-cj8mn Naval invasion would have been hard since Spain would have most likely intervened on the side of the Entente to help contain the italian and the austrian navies (Pact of Cartagena)
Idk, maybe they would want to stay with Russia, it doesn't change the scenario too much. Many people pointed out, but idk if the Belarusians wanted independence
Idk if this is real but i do remember that you had the part one of what if morrocan crisis caused ww1 or what if nobody won ww1 on the old ACH channel (before all the vids got nukked for some reason). I cant that video and if you have it can you repost it or remake it or something be cause i want to see it again
As fun as this is, Austria would never give up Trieste. Not only was it a vital port and the hub of the Austrian Navy, but it was also severely important for trade, basically, Austria needed Trieste to survive.
Same with the dervish order in Somalia, in reality all Italian colonies would be lost before the end of 1914, this isn’t even all that’s wrong with the scenario, the entente would still successfully defend the Marne as they could still outnumber the Germans and the German army would still pivot away from Paris which would open up a gap in their lines, Italy would initially be a sideshow as they could barely even advance against 70,000 Austrians at the izonzo irl what makes you think they could advance against the French in the alps, they would only need a minimal force to hold it and even if they couldn’t they’d sacrifice the land in order to hold Paris
The Italian navy, combined with the Austro Hungarian and even ottoman navies also wouldn’t be able to block off the entente, the French navy alone was massive, and the Germans still wouldn’t be able to beat the British at Jutland, so any French dreadnought force with the help of some British fleets would break any blockade attempt by the central powers
1:21 that’s the wrong flag, austria hungary never had a national flag and even if you mean the austrian empire, the austrian empire used a black and yellow flag, the same design is also used to represent AH because of propaganda drawings from that time Same goes for 2:07
11:43 maybe also romania gets south transylvania and bucovina in exchange for them joining the austrian federation, with an increased level of autonomy?
Italy and Germany have always been natural allies even before they united, their common hostility towards the Habsburg and the major powers in the West made them close allies for much of the late 19th century and even in the first years of the 20th century (Triple Alliance). Unfortunately Germany sought to reconcile with Austria, which basically forced Italy to seek support from France, which had helped the Savoy unite Italy during the Italian Independence Wars. It's a real shame Italy and Germany didn't stay together, although the two turned out to reconcile soon before WW2.
The German-Italian plan was different: Italy whould provide an Army Corp that was to was to deploy on the southern part of the western front. As it was uncertain if Austria was to allow the italian troops+supply route to run thru Austria it was considered the possibility for the italians to invade Switzerland to have free passage to the Mulhouse area. No operation was envised for the Alps as it was deemed impossible to pass the french fortifications. On the other hands the italian navy was to put pressure on the french cost whilst the Austria one was to protect the Adriatic Sea. You can find all of this on a ‘80 brook pubblished by “Ufficio Storico Stato Maggiore dell’Esercito” (Historical Bureau of the Supreme Headquarters of the Italian Army).
What if Italy had adopted the cult of Makima, Revy, Cutie Honey, Marin Kitagawa, Trixie Tang, Judy Neutron, Marge Simpson, Wendy Corduroy, Lois Griffin, Sailor Moon and Maddie Fenton instead of Abrahamic shit?
I can see Russia following a similar path to Spain in 1936-1939, as the empire was very unstable, though tsar Nicholas would not have abdicated by now. He was becoming very unpopular, especially during the great war and refused to modernize the nation, so there would definitely be an uprising against him. Most would want the monarchy out, but themselves in, so this could devolve into a similar civil war to the one in our timeline, although with a few monarchists mixed in
I don’t understand how Italy is able to breach trough French line in 1914 when irl they were not able to break Austrian one with added years of preparation… I mean, less preparation, the defending army is better and the terrain is even worse
@@Sander_van_de_Reep Obviously alternate history are always unrealistic but it’s much more enjoyable when it make sense once the divergence point is set up
If they didn't break through, you can assume the video would be super boring and historical. I just wanted to do something interesting, I'm aware that Italy even lost land to Austria
Hmm now how does Italy joining the Central Powers make Sweden-Norway survive huh Reqriting History *cough cough cough* Sweden Norway still exist in the map you show even after the great war
i could come up with a different scenario , as italy has a larger border with france than germany , 1/2 of french troops would need to garrison it (before the war) along with the german and belgian border. which would likely stretch their forces quite thin and a push back at the marne in september of 1914 would be difficult. though nothing much would change with belgium and germany would still be stalled going through belgium. on the other hand austria hungary could have a better time in galicia due to freed up troops from the italian border. the bulgarians would likely join sooner along with the ottomen (ottomans?) and due to british and french forces being stretched so thin along europe africa and asia it could mean that the schlieffen plan is out right successful and the war in the west ends before christmas and they turn towards russia with all their might in as early as feb or march of 1915 which would give them enough troops and equipment to make a successful barbarossa style invasion into russia with far more troops than germany in ww2 (because the austrohungarian army was not yet obliterated and the ottomen and italians would be around to help) which could be estimated to being around 4 million from germany , 2.5 million from austriahungary ,1.5 million from italy and 1 million from the ottoman. this might even encourage the japanese (which you completely forgot about in the video) to join germany (maybe big maybe) and capitulate russia by 1918 at most since germany had enough trains and a booming economy unlike in ww2 where swift action was required to not go into stalemate since the german industry couldnt handle a second war of attrition. so maybe germany could get bits of lithuania and get its old land from poland (from before napoleon arrived to prussia when poland had been split between russia germany and austria hungary which made it not exist anymore for 100 years) directly along with luxembourg , half of belgium , the iron mine area near the border with france (all of verdun and sedan) this could help them supply more iron for naval production and they might even beat britain in a few years, but hey , ITS JUST A THEORY A GAME THEORY!
The biggest effect would be that the italians would not crush the austrian navy and both together would give the brits a hard time, which would make a full embargo on the central powers impossible which alone could lead to a victory.
Another thing I find worth mentioning, since Albania was occupied bu the central powers to chase out the serbians, it's likely that either Austria or Italy would at least attempt to install a friendly regime there.
While this is an interesting timeline, the UK is an extremely moderate country for almost all of its recent history. I find it extremely unlikely that Britain would turn ultranationalist. Germany may have wanted an ally in Britain, so the peace deal would be very mild for them (although I think you showed this very well in this video). Overall, very good video and interesting scenario.
Why would Germany become more authoritarian? During the war the SPD already had a vast majority and they had been pushing for constitutional reform for ages
@@rewriting-history why would that happen this way mow ? the SPD rose in the past because of the internal protests against the annexation of Alsace Lorraines french parts. And the existing constituion includes siege paragraphs that make this pretty easy. The german empire legally was basically an autocracy but the empire had to cave to the parties again and again because the population never supported that.
Expectation: Reality: Italy gets its ass kicked in the Alps, Ottoman Empire is disgusted with central powers and stays Away from war. Central powers loose and Italy is screwed... 😂
Expectation: your comment Reality: Ottomans joins the CP. Greece might to. Italians push past the Alps, French and English get their a... kicked at Marne 🤣
The most unrealistic part is the Spanish entenring the war and france losing that much land to Italy. I mean i can see them losing border territories and lands lost when Italy was piedmont Sardinia be returned to Italy,but they won't be able to get that much land. At least not in mainland France.
This may be out there, but there was a naval arms race between Greece and the Ottoman Empire in 1913 over the Aegean islands and the Greeks had plans to launch a surprise naval invasion in the Gallipoli Peninsula and capture Constantinople without ever declaring war to force the Ottomans to negotiate, but they never got the opportunity. (Due to the Ottomans negotiating with them anyways). But what if Greece went through with this plan and invaded them?
My source is www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greece_during_World_War_I&ved=2ahUKEwi0pq7RkbiFAxUAg4kEHRhIDT4QFnoECAQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw04S2xsp_GIvhcXU4kA59Z8 Unfortunately I'm not sure if this plan had a name and haven't looked into it much :( sorry.
AH should have been desolved (earlier) by Germany, Russia and Italy while independent Hungary and Croatia would be created out of it. (Rest of the territory goes to the countries in the beginning)
*15:30* You forgot to talk about the Caucasus, again!! I highly doubt that they wouldn't declare independance like in reality, with this time an even more humiliating war for the Russians.
I have 2 issues with this and they’re both pointed at Italy. The French would be more divided but the Italians were notoriously even more inept in the first Great War than the second. I can see them getting some gains from mainland France and Corsica alongside some colonies but I’d be surprised if they’d get nearly as far inland as they did. I also highly doubt they’d be given Egypt. Britain would never give that up, it’d be the death knell of the empire. I’m fairly confident this would speed up British decolonization anyways but losing the Suez Canal would be way too big of a bullet for them to bite. The amount of Aussie, South African, Kenyan, and Indian soldiers who’d be pushed in there just to hold Egypt would be insane.
Then you don’t know history. In the WWI Italy was one of the strongest, quoted even from various generals from both sides. The only “ineptitude” quoted in history was that they had to take massive human lives losses to advance, but that was normal because the Austrian fortresses were difficult to breach from a lower position.
Would be interesting to see what if Spain joined the Central Powers after the Equatorial Guinea crisis in which the Entente breached Spanish territory

P.s I love your videos
I can do it, we will see in the future!
Please, we need part 2 and this needs to be a mod.
This is a great and interesting video!
can u do a vid to rewrite finish history in ww1 and ww2
While this is an interesting timeline, the UK is an extremely moderate country for almost all of its recent history. I find it extremely unlikely that Britain would turn ultranationalist. Germany may have wanted an ally in Britain, so the peace deal would be very mild for them (although I think you showed this very well in this video). Overall, very good video and interesting scenario.
Nice thumbnail
Appreciate it, didn't know if it would work
I would love to see a part two
Why would Germany become more authoritarian? During the war the SPD already had a vast majority and they had been pushing for constitutional reform for ages
I assume they would become more authoritarian because of the territories they need to occupy
@@rewriting-history why would that happen this way mow ? the SPD rose in the past because of the internal protests against the annexation of Alsace Lorraines french parts. And the existing constituion includes siege paragraphs that make this pretty easy. The german empire legally was basically an autocracy but the empire had to cave to the parties again and again because the population never supported that.
Suggestion:What if Maphillindo happened before Confrontation
Expectation:
Reality: Italy gets its ass kicked in the Alps, Ottoman Empire is disgusted with central powers and stays
Away from war. Central powers loose and Italy is screwed... 😂
Expectation: your comment
Reality: Ottomans joins the CP. Greece might to. Italians push past the Alps, French and English get their a... kicked at Marne 🤣
I want to see part 2 but also what happens to the rest of the Commonwealth when britain goes ultranationalist?
The thumbnail perfectly resembles what is reality
Appreciate that you liked it, didn't think people would
Italy since its unification-1914:💪
Italy 1917-1995:😵
Italy 1995-2024: 💪🤧😪
Lol nice one :D
Video idea: what if the russian provisional republic never fell, ie what if kerensky (i think that was his name) didnt screw up quite as badly
Part 2 would be quite intresting.
you gave me an idea to write a scenario like kaiserreich
but instead france,uk and italy became syndicalist they become fascist
Do a what if bulgaria never existed
Best timeline!
@@rewriting-history haha or a partition of Bulgaria maybe
Dude you should play call of war your a history guy you'll loved the game
The most unrealistic part is the Spanish entenring the war and france losing that much land to Italy. I mean i can see them losing border territories and lands lost when Italy was piedmont Sardinia be returned to Italy,but they won't be able to get that much land. At least not in mainland France.
PLS PART 2!!
Soon!!!
I heard “bloodshit” instead of bloodshed
This may be out there, but there was a naval arms race between Greece and the Ottoman Empire in 1913 over the Aegean islands and the Greeks had plans to launch a surprise naval invasion in the Gallipoli Peninsula and capture Constantinople without ever declaring war to force the Ottomans to negotiate, but they never got the opportunity. (Due to the Ottomans negotiating with them anyways). But what if Greece went through with this plan and invaded them?
My source is www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greece_during_World_War_I&ved=2ahUKEwi0pq7RkbiFAxUAg4kEHRhIDT4QFnoECAQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw04S2xsp_GIvhcXU4kA59Z8
Unfortunately I'm not sure if this plan had a name and haven't looked into it much :( sorry.
Again Perfect video
Appreciate that!
@@rewriting-history that's true bro 😎👍🇵🇱
Lore of What if Italy joined the Central Powers? Momentum 100
AH should have been desolved (earlier) by Germany, Russia and Italy while independent Hungary and Croatia would be created out of it. (Rest of the territory goes to the countries in the beginning)
Part 2 please
Hmm I think I should do it
*15:30* You forgot to talk about the Caucasus, again!! I highly doubt that they wouldn't declare independance like in reality, with this time an even more humiliating war for the Russians.
Please part 2 🙏
Attempt 2 of asking: what if american civil war sparked ww1, great videos as always mister rewriting
What if Britain was on Germanys side and the ottoman were with the entente during ww1?
You think Britain would be defeated and forced to sign an armistice? Cuz I wouldn't conclude it like that.
What if kaiser Whilhelm turned into a dinosaur and helped germany in the army
Part 2 please!!!
Why Norway and sweden United?
Because I used an older map, excuse my mistake
I love your videos, but the non detailed map is always a pain in the ass😭
Non-detailed map? Wdym?
@@rewriting-history i meant that you didn't get Venice, west Austria, and the lands piemont had before giving them to France, the rest is pretty ok
what if Bulgaria won both balkan wars?
I have 2 issues with this and they’re both pointed at Italy. The French would be more divided but the Italians were notoriously even more inept in the first Great War than the second. I can see them getting some gains from mainland France and Corsica alongside some colonies but I’d be surprised if they’d get nearly as far inland as they did. I also highly doubt they’d be given Egypt. Britain would never give that up, it’d be the death knell of the empire. I’m fairly confident this would speed up British decolonization anyways but losing the Suez Canal would be way too big of a bullet for them to bite. The amount of Aussie, South African, Kenyan, and Indian soldiers who’d be pushed in there just to hold Egypt would be insane.
Then you don’t know history. In the WWI Italy was one of the strongest, quoted even from various generals from both sides. The only “ineptitude” quoted in history was that they had to take massive human lives losses to advance, but that was normal because the Austrian fortresses were difficult to breach from a lower position.
