A really interesting concept would be what if Germany never annexed Alcase-Lorraine? Bismark himself was against it. And it would allow him his vision of Germany being a neutral power taking the backseat in foreign affairs. And would allow germany far more diplomatic flexibility, it may also mean no world war ever.
On a similar note, what if the french political crisis caused occitània and Brittany to get independance destroying the french-German rivalry by weakening France
@@saintekweena795 yeah probably since the german government would really demand reperations but I think maybe bismark could have pressured them more, maybe jump out the window again or something lol
Thank you for making my suggestion! I donated 100$ back then during the Jingle Jam with the prompt "What if the Holy Alliance (Prussia+Austria+Russia) didn't end?"

Again, thanks for making my suggestion and keep on making Videos as awesome as this!
@@oppionatedindividual8256 If Spain had designed their ships a bit better they would've remained the dominant force, the British got lucky that the Spanish had gotten overly confident in their ship designers.
I honestly think a war would only break out in the 1890s - 1900s as i have trust in Bismarck as a master Diplomat. But with Wilhelm II beeing more reckless and Nicholas II wanting to prove himself it finally happens. And by then the Holy Alliance is obviously the favourite
The sides would be extremely hard to figure out to make it an actual war Most of Europe viewed the American Civil War as a two sided shitshow. One side was still slavers, but the other side also broke the internationally overseen treaty to demilitarize Fort Sumter and Legally were the aggressors, on top of being hypocrits in the British view as the Union repeatedly said the war wasn't about freeing the slaves, it was about keeping the south in the Union (Hence the Emancipation Proclamation, which was viewed in the Union as a slap in the face and near rejected, but praised in Europe, and even gained the USA a strong ally in Tsarist Russia (this friendly relationship lasted until the Communist revolution and directly lead to the 1919 American/British invasion of Russia)) so it being a World War is near impossible to actually spark. At best we would have to break down the sides into whose interests work better with whom The British, despite their love of Southern Cotton are extremely unlikely to openly side with them. India had started providing massive amounts of its own cotton to Britain. Britain would see no real reason to help out the south except just to flip off the Union, which would just reduce trade. So Britain would likely stay neutral and keep trading with both sides. France has a vested interest in Mexico at this time, and with the Confederates openly talking about expanding into Mexico, the French would either see them as rivals, or do their own M-R agreement to split Mexico. Either way France would mostly just use the South as a buffer and distraction as they took Mexico. Spain was already falling as a power, and struggling to maintain itself. It has absolutely no interest in an American War. Prussia would just observe, or be paid as mercenaries by the Union. What is now Italy would be the only real part of Europe to openly support the South. 11000 Italian Volunteers fought for the CSA in real life, and Italy and the South have long held a certain kinship (enough so the Virginia Army Flag you can see flown in some parts of Southern Italy to this day). This wouldn't be a World War, what it would be is most of Europe hanging up on the South of the USA and the South of Italy.
I am unsure whether an Italian War against Austria would happen in a way similar to our own timeline because Sardinia Piedmont gained a lot of their diplomatic reputation from their participation in the Crimean War, which doesn't happen. This was key to the eventual agreement signed between them and France. If anything, they probably just wait until Austria has another 1848 style uprising or ends up in a war with another power to attack.
Austria in every Possible History video: - Looses territory and influence - Looses Italy - Looses Germany - Never has the possibility to maintain and advance her interests intact
Because what did you expect from a multi-ethnic empire where nationalism is spreading, the empire itself is struggling to compete with other nations etc. etc.
@@PerOlemannBobsenXVII treating it as an inevitable outcome is not realistic in my view. The Habsburg monarchy was not doomed to die nor to fail. Honestly an excellent brief video on this is by the channel “Old Britannia”, it’s about the recovery of the Habsburg Empire between 1848-1852 under Minister President Felix von Schwarzenberg.
Hey PH, I really like your videos and if you need any ideas for scenarios I think a good idea for a “what if” scenario would be what if Nogovorod united Russia😄
Interesting scenario as always. Suggestion: what if Austria collapsed, but exactly along ethnic lines? Edit: i may have started ww3 in the replies for no reason
What if the USA agreed to Lenin's 1920 offer to a 60 Year Lease of Kamchatka in return for the normalization of diplomatic and trade ties? In addition to the normalization of ties with the US, Lenin was also seeking to worsen ties between the US and Japan as their interests clash in the northern Pacific.
Perhaps you could do a video similar to your Italian discovery of the Americas, by making it the Scandinavians? With either Vinland holding on or explorers rediscovering the area.
I really dislike how you always say "so yeah everything is normal, but then Austria randomly collapses", completely ignoring the REAL reasons Austria collapsed like irridentist powers wanting to end it + food shortages.
A blockade causes food shortages y'know... and the hungarians weren't fans of the empire in the scenario... and the rest of the minorities didn't like it either, like, you expect austria to survive when it has like eleven major ethnic groups?
@@Sylvia568 well, Russia can supply the other allies with Ukrainian grain and remember that the Russians do not have the problems from our timeline, they are not on the front, their infrastructure was not destroyed
@@dertotschlosslp4840 well, still, there's always the other economic impacts of a british blockade, surely the rampant economic downturn of not being able to import via sea would cause a collapse
@@barsukascool how about you try to merge austria, hungary, czechia, slovakia, ukraine, poland, bosnia, croatia, and slovenia into a state and see how fast it collapses, I'd give it like 3 days.
Had Denmark and Sweden never existed geograghically then Norway likely wouldn't really exist as we know it, without immigration into the peninsula from Finland into Sweden then the Northern regions likely wouldn't have become as populated as they are today. The Sami people are tough but they'd be idiots to settle in the Norwegian mountains where basically nothing exists. As for the Southern part of Norway it probably would have a lesser population which are completely reliant on the fishing industry, and are likely of German or English heritage. Norway likely would've had little to zero relevance on the European stage until oil is discovered, and without Denmark the Danish strait doesn't exist and the various countries touching the Baltic Sea would have essentially free access to the Atlantic Ocean, thus Norway couldn't even impose travel taxes like the Danish did as the strait would be too big to police. In short, in a world without Sweden and Denmark, Norway would likely be completely fucked and would probably only be a backwater state like that of a Balkan country, or Iceland without the vulcanos.
Pretty sure he meant it ironically and the actual suggestion was "(Please do a what if everything went perfect for Norway scenario)" which would be quite nice though it will probably have to start in the 1300's or something.
20:00 If its before 1870s, Bismarck germanization didn't start yet, or wasnt in advanced stages, so there would be still many poles in gdańsk area. I could see poland annexing the corridor aswell
I can't imagine France would be able to Take parts of the rhineland, as, despite everything, Prussia looks to be in a reasonably strong negotiating position.
come to think of it, the warsaw pact was pretty much a recreation of this alliance, albeit with completely different governments, politics, ideology, time frame, etc.
Then say bye bye to the Habsburg empire. And Germany in this scenario might fare out better because they have Russia on their side. If they somehow find a way to calm France down then Europe might avoid a world war.
I love yor content❤❤❤ and I have idea for video: If Prague was the capital city of Habsburg monarchy, then in year 1619, durig the Bohemian Revolt in Prague, then the rovelters conquered the capital city of Habsburg monarchy - Prague and Ferdinand 2nd surrendered and Frederick 5th of Palatinate become king of the Habsburg monarchy. In year 1685 when Frederick's grandson Charles 2nd died without sons, his brother-in-law (brother of his wife) Christian 5th Danish and Norwegian king became king of Danubian kingdom (Habsburg monarchy). In reality in year 1740 Frederick 2nd (Prussian king) attacked Silesia because of destability of Habsburg monarchy and because of someone's non-recognition of Maria Theresa as queen, but in this alternative history it didn't happened, because Oldenburg monarchy (Habsburg monarchy and Denmark-Norway) was stable, everyone recognize Christian 6th as king and Oldenburg monarchy was more times bigger than Prussia. In year 1814 after the unsucceful Norwegian war of indepence the Oldenburg monarchy became federation of three states - Norway, Denmark and Danubia. After 50 years in year 1867 the federak state Danubia splits into 2 federal states - Bohemia and Hungary. In this alternative history duke Franz Ferdinand wasn't assassinated, but successor to the throne and first born son of Christian 10th - Frederick instead. The great war was going on just like in Reality. If the great war win Triple Alliance, then Knut Christian (second born son of Christian 10th) ruled the Denmark-Norway and the part of Oldenburg monarchy in Central Europe (Federal states Bohemia and Hungary) was split like in reality, but Silesia and North and South Lusatia were part of Czechoslovakia. You can edit it a bit. If you make video about this I will be happy.❤❤❤❤
i feel it odd that greece gets far more for loosing the war than they seem to when they win, didnt the russians and austrians have a plan to create a greek empire in the balkans before the crimean war?
Russia was always extremely lose on a potential alliance, for an example let's take the Prussian invasion of Denmark in 1848, where Russia multiple times addressed to Prussia, they would invade them, and would destroy them if they continued the war, forcing Prussia to back down out of fear.
8:54 but prussia literally started mobalizing to join on austrias side, if austria lasted a little longer irl prussia would have joined why has this changed now?
What if everything went perfectly for Hungary? You could go way back to the mongol invasions which vastly changed the demographics of Hungary, but any PoD is fine
Hear me out, imagine a version of history where every country had their greatest leaders existing in the same era. Like Napoleon leading France, Stalin in charge of the USSR, and so on, all at the same time.
Can you do what if the tsar or provisional government somehow in some way, kept power in russia? The reasoning behind those 2 choices is to use realism to try and say which one is more realistic, my personal bet is locked in on the provisional government if I had to choose due to the lack of support for the tsar, in this scenario the people do not go Bolshevik and understand that they need to wait out and hold for exhaust in the central powers to hugely lower moral and economic stress from the war to hit or for another nation to join in on the war on the side of the entente. This is probably not the most realistic way to do it but overall the best way I can think of. This, of course, has it's flaws taking Russian economics into factor, but most certainly better than "oh Russia takes berlin, Budapest, and Vienna" NO! None of that too unrealistic stuff even for alternate history. So yeah, my setup for the scenario. Quick recap: tsar either abdicates or doesn't depending on which one you choose based of realism, provisional government is established, the people realize that they need to hold out if they want stability despite what they are going through at the moment, possibly by the government issuing basic essentials to those who can't afford food, and stability achieved somehow as they hold. End of setup and suggestion
I understand why you made this video, but Austria just standing idly while Prussia is gaining so much influence in Germany is just stupid. They would have at least tried to diplomatically tie some nations to them, like Bavaria. As you can see in the Austro-Prussian war, many nations were against Prussian Hegemony in Germany and probably would have aligned themselves with Austria in this scenario. The other members would probably also send some kind of support to Austria in a war against a Piedmont-France coalition, as they would be natural enemies of a the conservative Alliance. Also portraying Austria as this overly weak country is just annoying. Yes they were the weakest of the three, but when their in full control of Hungary, not being held back by their Vetos and demands, they'd be much stronger than in our timeline. Anyway, a Hungarian Revolution would have never succeeded in this timeline, since many troops could have been dispatched from the stagnant front lines. And the Italians being able to push into Tyrole is just nonsense.

7:46 An interesting idea here. What if the American Civil War had turned into a World War?
I really don’t think that’s a possibility
The only people possibly willing to work with the slavers of the south was the brits (for cotton) and it would have been a PR disaster if they did.
@@saccorhytusWell I mean, Britain did get quite upset without their cotton from the south, so there is a slight possibility

I thought for a moment, that the video was paused or that the audio turned off 😅
What if all rivers dried up in 1914 like a month before the war
famine, loss of trading routes, collapse of economy, everyone stops fighting because they’re too busy trying not to die or become broke
I understand why you made this video, but Austria just standing idly while Prussia is gaining so much influence in Germany is just stupid. They would have at least tried to diplomatically tie some nations to them, like Bavaria. As you can see in the Austro-Prussian war, many nations were against Prussian Hegemony in Germany and probably would have aligned themselves with Austria in this scenario. The other members would probably also send some kind of support to Austria in a war against a Piedmont-France coalition, as they would be natural enemies of a the conservative Alliance. Also portraying Austria as this overly weak country is just annoying. Yes they were the weakest of the three, but when their in full control of Hungary, not being held back by their Vetos and demands, they'd be much stronger than in our timeline. Anyway, a Hungarian Revolution would have never succeeded in this timeline, since many troops could have been dispatched from the stagnant front lines. And the Italians being able to push into Tyrole is just nonsense.
