A HOI4 DEMO Mod of the series was made! Here is the link - steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3310827650 Do note that the mod is a work in progress and we are constantly updating it and working on more and more countries! :)
My only point of contention is how much British land was taken in the treaty, I would imagine the Germans would avoid taking excess British possessions, especially bigger ones in east and Southern Africa, given it would easily make them a mortal enemy when they could have been turned to isolation if escaping relatively unscathed. Otherwise I like everything about this one and am eager for the continuation of the series.
Correction: It's unlikely the baltics would gain those borders like they did historically. There would be an United Baltic Duchy--since the germans wanted to create a baltic-german country--maybe even including Lithuania, too.
@@rewriting-historythey should become a republic (or maybe a federation) as Talat Pasha, an influencing political figure had this in mind if they were successful in the great war.
How does attacking the Netherlands make a shred of sense when A) the Netherlands already let Germany move troops through it to attack Belgium despite being one of the countries guaranteeing Belgian neutrality B) they now have to waste troops and time fighting the Netherlands C) fighting to gain access to the railroads (that they already had access to) doesn’t speed up their path to Paris, it just delays their advance on Belgium that’s between the Netherlands and France anyways
I would like to point out that the border of Bulgaria and the ottoman empire is wrong. Bulgaria owned the southern part of western Trace, including Alexandroupoli, then known as Dedeagach and the ottoman empire owned only the northern chunk of western Trace, which they gave to Bulgaria in 1915. Regardlessly I am excited about the series!
I understand that. The problem is that I made the border on an older map, then I added rivers and mountains and a lot of stuff do not line up. For example check the Danube border between Bulgaria and Romania. Also I'm glad you're excited for the series!
What If Asian nations (China 🇨🇳, Japan 🇯🇵, Manchuria, Mongolia 🇲🇳) colonized Siberia instead (assuming had Russia 🇷🇺 never annexed it and hadn't conquered it)
One thing about Karl I of Austria is that he never wanted a "Danubian federation" he only proposed this after the U.S. declared that they wanted self determination, Karl actually held more to the idea of creating a third crown in the Balkan for the southern Slavs.
Yes I am very aware. In the future episode you should expect a third crown and an Austrian Federation. I just called it "Danubian federation" for simplicity's sake, so people understand what I mean with 2 words.
Great Video Rewriting + interesting Titel since “Kaisertum” isn’t even a (to me (I’m German)) known German Word but it would probably mean something like “Kaiser cult” since -tum often means religion/cult (e.g. Christentum is Christianity)
Glad you liked it! Kaisertum is Austrian word, you can google it! I just didn't want to use Keiserreich, but wanted something similar, the Series isn't focused on Austria tho
@@rewriting-history actuly both are correct, Kaisertum is standard German, Kaiserthum is Austrian, but it would be more correct using Kaiserthum if its meant to be Austrian
9:46 The red in this specific slide is supposed to represent the wealthy/industrial regions of France, yes? It's a bit confusing since that is also the color used for land taken by the Germans. Maybe in the future, use a different color to make it clearer? A golden color might be good to highlight the wealthy regions as it's the color of gold, as gold equals wealth.
It is almost assured for Italy to join the Central Powers at the last second as in our timeline the Austrians offered italian the italian speaking part of south Tyrol if Italy remained neutral and there were a lot of negotiantions between Italian and Austrian diplomats to decide the price of an Italian entry in the war on the side of the Central Powers. These negotiations were however cut short due to the hate the italian goverment and monarchy had of Austria and because almost every Italian general and strategist was sure of an Entante victory, leading to Italy joining the Entante. So yes, in this timeline the goverment would be adviced by it's generals to join the Central Powers, leading to Italy gaining Savoy Nice Corsica and Tunisia.
I feel like Britain would lose neither Gibraltar nor Malta as these were of similar importance to the suez to the Empire, as they needed bases for shipping in the Mediterranean. Malta could maybe be lost though it’s a stretch but Gibraltar would be fought for tooth and nail just as much as the Suez Canal, maybe even more.
13:31 *Northern Epirus. Actually Germany promised Northern Epirus, the Dodecanese islands, and respect for the territorial integrity of Greece in Macedonia and the Aegean Islands. They also promised Bitola (Monastiri), Doirani and Gevgeli in Southern Serbia. But Cyprus was promised to the Ottomans. All of these were promised by the Kaiser for Greece to simply stay neutral
It actually looks like a hoi mod where Germany still won ww1, without Belarus and Ukraine west of Dnipro 😊 There is one, by the way. Also, I like this idea of yours 🎉
I think that making AH more competent for this scenareo is realistic because in our timeline they declared parcial mobilisation before the war making that a disaster for them.
14:23 The Austrians had the city of Kotor even before the war. Almost all of the Montenegrin coast (except the cities of Ulcinj and Bar) were under the Venezian Empire which was annexed by Austria after the Napoleonic wars. The Montenegrin King, Nikola I, specificly said that Montenegro's goals in this war, was to retake those territories, plus Herzegovina (now a part of Bosnia)
I didn't rip LoreDad off. I have been studying the RUclips algorithm and a good way to go about it is to increase session watch time. Series are the best way to do it, so I want to try it out
You can make another scenario: what if the Netherlands cave in to the Germans by offering them Belgium, Luxembourg and some lands from France (Maybe French Low Countries?)
It's a pretty interesting scenario. But I think Cyprus could be given to the Ottoman Empire since they had a claim and de jure ownership of the island till the end of WW1.
I highly doubt Germany would fracture Russia that much, IRL during the treaty of brest-litovsk they only initially negotiated for Poland and The Baltics to become independent, and even then the Russians ruled by the communists, who were anti-war, were reluctant to give up that much. Finland and Ukraine pretty much only became independent because they had declared and fought for their independence before the treaty was signed. The Caucasus would for sure then become Ottoman, but maybe not in its entirety as even IRL it didn't. Good video though, really well made on all technical aspects.
Already made, my friend! Beware, it's almost a year old and one of my first videos, so it's pretty bad ruclips.net/video/fkI7iJuspsI/видео.htmlsi=gY6vrATY_w_dfsVi
LoreDad didn't come up with the idea of multi-part series. I have been requested to do such thing before he started uploading. Still I want to give credit to him, as I took inspiration from his videos, copying the title format for example. In the future I will see what he did to summarize past episodes and will implement that. I did take inspiration from him, correct
You tell me, my Alternative scenario "What if Prague was capital city of Habsburg monarchy in 1526" don't change anything, but I don't thing. This is my idea: 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.❤❤❤❤
Here is a small improvement to the lore Considering Gibraltar is a very important territory for the British to connect them with Egypt and by proxy their whole empire I have doubts the British would give it up so easily to a neutral country So instead what I would do is I would have Spain declare war A little bit after Italy And Capturing Gibraltar, forcing the British to give it up in the peace treaty
I hope this is in the good way of saying it. I am trying to be smart, as the market for HOI4 is bigger than the Alternate History market, so I want to make my videos feel like playing or watching HOI4. This is in terms of realism and entertainment
@@rewriting-history Well i understand your strategy it may work but it's just that when i watch videos like that i notice how hoi4 is indeed a good game it is a pretty realistic simulator of how warfare really works especially when the strategies you presented were the exact same i would come up with if it was an hoi4 game, so hoi4 essentially gave me any type of real sense in how strategic warfare works lol anyways about this idea that you have idk but personnaly in my opinion i would try to embrace it even a little more maybe try to mix hoi4 with your content in some way or idk, i feel like an extremely important thing to grow a large channel on youtube is, apart from a good content ofc(which i think you already have), an unique self character, some thing that when the spectator looks at immediatly makes them remember of your channel
Wouldnt Belgium getting to keep Limburg and gaining Northern Brabant make it easier for railroads in this scenario be more realistic tham invading the Dutch
@@rewriting-history Also I think Montenegro wouldnt become an Austrian Puppet since the King only joined because of th populations demands to help Serbia and its even possible for Montenegro to get Scutari/Skutari/Skhoder since they occupied it during the war but thats what I think
I think the treaty is too harsh in Russia, the irl treaty was only so harsh because the Russians refused to surrender as the allies kept promising them gains. This resulted in Lenin getting set to Russia and the very harsh treaty of Brest-Litovsk. If we look at the historical initial peace offers they only wanted Poland, Lithuania and Latvia. While something harsher is likely I think adding Estonia, Finland, Ukraine (even if only the Russian conception of Ukraine, ie not including Novorossiya), AND the caucusus is realistic. Especially since the ottomans were both losing to the Russians and committed genocide. I think taking Poland the Baltics and the caucasus as independant states is likely the harshest it would get in a timeline where France is impotent.
Idk if Britain would really lose this much. I mean they are probably still the most powerful country by then and it's not like any of their land was invaded or ever even threatened.
Imo Ukraine and Poland are more likely to be swapped, with Ukraine being ruled by a Hohenzollern, and Poland "electing" a Habsburg king (maybe in return for the already very autonomous region of Galicia and Lodomeria going to Poland so that the Poles there aren't a problem to the Austrians and in Poland itself the people see a reason to ally a former occupant) since the Germans and the Russians were much less liked by Poles (due to their internal policy towards Polish people being a lot harsher in the second half of the XIX century than the Habsburgs who just gave them some autonomy) whilst the Habsburgs were the "lesser evil". Germany also had more plans towards Ukraine than the Habsburgs did, and they saw Ukraine as an important ally not only against Russia, but also against Poland or Austria-Hungary if they "tried anything"
I said in so many ways how it's different. Germany winning WW1 has some similarities with the Kaisserreich universe, but as I said Italy is united, Russia is stronger, and France and Britain are not syndicalist. These are MASSIVE changes...
All of these coins' holes were man-made. Wallets didn't exist back in the day, so people made holes in their coins and tied a string to it, making it easy to carry. Since it was silver, it could also been used as jewlery neckless
Not very realistic. I doubt the borders would have changed much, if the war ended so early. Only when the stakes are higher would the borders change alot. Thats is, when you have invested millions of lives.
Why does romania sometimes have southern Bukovina 0:1512:00 and sometimes it doesnt 0:5911:56 . Romania got all of Bukovina from the Austrians after ww1 ended
Hey rewriting can u put wilhelm franz on the throne of Ukraine he was a Habsburg that liked te Culture of Ukraine and even gave him self a Ukrainain name ( something like vasyl Vashilvanij) It would be cool

Correction: It's unlikely the baltics would gain those borders like they did historically. There would be an United Baltic Duchy--since the germans wanted to create a baltic-german country--maybe even including Lithuania, too.
I doubt it would include Lithuania personally, because it had a far stronger national identity and (as far as I know) far fewer Baltic Germans.
We’d get the Duchy of Livonia/United Baltic Duchy which would be Latvia and Estonia. We would probably end up with a seperate medium-small Lithuanian

I think taking Poland the Baltics and the caucasus as independant states is likely the harshest it would get in a timeline where France is impotent.
Multi episode? That's new.
Idk if Britain would really lose this much. I mean they are probably still the most powerful country by then and it's not like any of their land was invaded or ever even threatened.
I also want of strange reasons a mod for this. But Kaiserreich will als ways be in the center of my gaming heart
Lol, the hoi4 joke was super funny and accurate.
Yooo glad you liked it!
And thats how kaiserreich was born
But I said many times how different Kaiserreich is from mine
Imo Ukraine and Poland are more likely to be swapped, with Ukraine being ruled by a Hohenzollern, and Poland "electing" a Habsburg king (maybe in return for the already very autonomous region of Galicia and Lodomeria going to Poland so that the Poles there aren't a problem to the Austrians and in Poland itself the people see a reason to ally a former occupant) since the Germans and the Russians were much less liked by Poles (due to their internal policy towards Polish people being a lot harsher in the second half of the XIX century than the Habsburgs who just gave them some autonomy) whilst the Habsburgs were the "lesser evil". Germany also had more plans towards Ukraine than the Habsburgs did, and they saw Ukraine as an important ally not only against Russia, but also against Poland or Austria-Hungary if they "tried anything"
Honestly interfering scenario, I would play this if it were made as a Hoi4 mod
I will start developing this as a HOI4 mod, so stay tuned!
@@rewriting-history wit really? I’m excited! :D
@@Banana_behind_the_slaughter me too, my friend!
ooooooo more then 1 episodes?
Someone is going to make this a HOI4 mod, just give it time to flesh out.
We are already working on a mod heavily, so expect a demo soon!
@@rewriting-history now that's cool youtuber behavior.
Vid idea: what if the Netherlands joined the central powers
I think, as like as in The Great War redux Hoi4 mod, After taking Paris, they would sign a white peace, with some condition.

"Thats it ? That was the video ? That was just the Kaisserreich universe !"
I said in so many ways how it's different. Germany winning WW1 has some similarities with the Kaisserreich universe, but as I said Italy is united, Russia is stronger, and France and Britain are not syndicalist. These are MASSIVE changes...
@@rewriting-historyI’m guessing there aren’t any Marxist nations yet
This is awesome
Was the second coin minted with the hole through the middle or was that made after?
All of these coins' holes were man-made. Wallets didn't exist back in the day, so people made holes in their coins and tied a string to it, making it easy to carry. Since it was silver, it could also been used as jewlery neckless
@rewriting-history thanks for the answer, i didn't know about the wallets not existing
At the beginning when saying germany would have lost faster they have a really strong military.Now yes Austria really needed to becompanint

Here from discord 🗣️
Appreciate that! Thanks for the reminder to ping everyone there :D
Not very realistic. I doubt the borders would have changed much, if the war ended so early. Only when the stakes are higher would the borders change alot. Thats is, when you have invested millions of lives.
But I didn't try to be realistic and gave a warning in a video. You must have missed it
Why does romania sometimes have southern Bukovina 0:15 12:00 and sometimes it doesnt 0:59 11:56 . Romania got all of Bukovina from the Austrians after ww1 ended
because i used different maps, i didnt even notice it. No more such mistakes will be made
Now, make a mod of this. 😂
1:38 why did you use that stock photo in that context lol
GERMANY BETRAYED THE NETHERLANDS???😂😂😂
I don't remember ever saying that?
WW2 blitzkrieg reference
@rewriting-history
what happens to the Dutch east indies if Germany invaded the Netherlands in your series
na if germany retreats from east prussia it would give them buffs
Hey rewriting can u put wilhelm franz on the throne of Ukraine he was a Habsburg that liked te Culture of Ukraine and even gave him self a Ukrainain name ( something like vasyl Vashilvanij) It would be cool
