The Long March (a TNO-sequel Comintern quest) is a Forum Quest created by StarMaker764 on Sufficient Velocity.com, based on The New Order Last Days Of Europe. It began on 14 May 2023.Beginning in 1975, the world of TNO is unrecognizable from just ten years. The Second West Russian War ended in a stalemate between the Russian Empire and the German Reich, Japan licks its wounds from its defeat in the Third Sino-Japanese War, and the OFN has been crippled by America's withdrawal from world affairs. But the vacuum opened by the losses suffered by each of superpowers allows for a revival of socialist movements worldwide. Now Fourth Communist International, an alliance of socialist nations scattered across the world, may be the last hope of this Earth.The players are in control of the Comintern and must navigate a world fundamentally hostile to them with the intent to defeat of all the other capitalist and fascist powers to unite humanity in socialism.The Long March features the following tropes:

Kaiserreich
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_123b8ee9
comment
Kaiserreich: The Reborn Reich of Sacred Germany and the Soldier Kingdom of Prussia both deliberately invoke this imagery. The former is ruled by the last remnants and descendants of the Junker aristocracy and headed by a "Kaiser" claiming to descend from Wilhelm II (an unverified claim as he remains in power by virtue of his word being backed by too many guns to be ignored).

Plot-Triggering Death
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_13e1c444
comment
Plot-Triggering Death: The death of China's president Wang Kunlun starts the chain of events that will result in the Second Chinese Civil War. The revelation of the death of Il Duce Niccolò Giani is immediately followed by a series of coup and counter-coups as the fascists tear themselves apart for the control of the state. The death of most of the Nazi leadership, Führer Oberländer included, results in the complete collapse of the German Reich and its sphere into chaos and civil war.

comment
Fictional United Nations: The Comintern attempts to reach out to neutral countries by creating the United Nations as a world forum that is essentially the OTL organization. However the UN is short-lived and dissolved in the aftermath of the Great Jihad of 1984 as neutral nations abandon the organization, leading to it being subsumed into the Comintern's institutions.

Slave Liberation
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_15d8e4f5
comment
Slave Liberation: The Haitian slaves launch one as their ancestors did to liberate themselves from the white supremacist Trujillo regime when their dictator Ramfis' death sparks a power struggle. As the 1984 German Civil War and concurrent Slovak Revolution begin, the enslaved populations of the Reich's eastern territories rise up and successfully liberate southern Poland, eastern Czechia, and almost all of the Baltic with help of Red Slovak and Comintern forces. Just the main Comintern armies agree to cease their assault on the CAR and German warlord states under threat of CDN nuclear retaliation, Ukrainian and Caucasian slaves stage a massive, coordinated uprising which liberates all of the Caucasus and the southern half of Ukraine with the Comintern's covert aid. It is only through US military intervention that the CAR didn't entirely collapse.

The Exile
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_1b8c7503
comment
The Exile: The Comintern nations host many socialist exiles. Svetlana Bukharina, Yuri Andropov, Nikolai Kardashev, Nikolai Voznesensky, Mikhail Suslov, Mikhail Tukhachevsky and Lazar Kaganovich fled Russia to the UAR. The Russian red emigre community also includes the surviving followers of the late Valery Sablin and Genrikh Yagoda, though the latter are much more marginal. Mohammad Danesh is an exile from Azad Hind to Bharat. Alexander Men managed to escape from Russia to Bharat. Huey Newton fled America to the ASU after an assassination attempt, where he continues to organize the Black Panthers on an international level. Western artisans and scientists such as Murray Bookchin, Francis Crick, Freeman Dyson, Creator/Carl Sagan, Jonas Salk, and James Watson have taken refuge in the UAR and Cuba. Mikhail Matkovsky, Svetlana Stalina and Dmitry Likhachyov managed to escape Russia for America. Former European colonists fleeing the Great African War and finding the United States too liberal for their taste find themselves welcomed alongside Iberian refugees by the Dominican Republic's Trujillo regime attempting to "whiten" the island's population. Some of the exiles like Moshe Dayan (escaping war crimes charges) are hired to train the regime's troops. Hayao Miyazaki fled to Azad Hind due to getting in trouble with the government for the content of his works. They would ironically become far more popular outside Japan. Steve Smith became a target of harrasment for the FBI for “socialist sympathies� after his return from the Russian Anarchy and moved to Eurasia eventually, where he had his daughter Irene.

comment
Pay Evil unto Evil: Josef Mengele was captured by African partisans during the South African War, who decided to use him as an experiment on how much you can mutilate a human body while leaving it technically alive. His corpse was never identified. Hans Hüttig was beaten to death with a metal chair by a heavily abused secretary, who committed suicide immediately afterwards. After being conquered by Samara, the Aryan Brotherhood proved to be so loathsome and vile that even Oktan was disgusted by them and had their leaders' bodies tortuously and fatally bent to the shape of a swatiska. Heinrich Himmler was captured by partisans during Burgundy's collapse, tortured for hours before being stripped naked and marched into a gas chamber along with dozens of other captured SS personnel. Sayyed Qutb was captured and buried alive by partisans during the Egyptian Civil War, in imitation of the tradition of burying infant girls alive that he and his islamists supported. Hassan el Hudyebi was tried by a revolutionary tribunal for collaboration with Italy and promoting genocide against the Copt population. He was sentenced to death by being fired from a canon in the general direction of Italy. Adolf Eichmann is captured by the UAR in South Africa and given to Jewish communists in Palestine as a show of good faith. He was never seen again.

Deal with the Devil
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_1fc8335e
comment
Deal with the Devil: Several times the Comintern, and thus the players, are given the option to accept a deal by another powerful nation giving them generous advantages in exchange for selling out their principles. Ireland calling the USA and its alliance for help led them to sign one such deal. The Americans provided air support, but would deploy troops only if Ireland if it joins the alliance (which requires members to spend 5% of their GDP on CDN maintenance with the option of taking out loans to pay for it and to cease all trade with all nations hostile to CDN interests), adopts Schlaflyist market reforms, opens their market to American companies without any restrictions and establishes free trade zones throughout Ireland under the jurisdiction of CDN forces and law, effectively turning the country into an American colony. With Wehrmacht forces bearing down on Dublin and seemingly no other option, the government accepted.

The Hedonist: Ramfis Trujillo is more interested in partying and car racing than actually running the country which he leaves in the care of his late father's generals and lackeys for the most part. This lifestyle would spell his end as he dies falling from the twentieth floor after having caught fire in a drug-induced mania, landing on a car that promptly exploded.

In general, science-fiction is dominant over fantasy within the Comintern with Afrofuturism, Arabmodernism and other artistic movements being dominant in the 80s and 90s, but fantasy starts to experience a surge in the 2000s as a new fantasypunk movement rises to revise and innovate on fantasy settings to make them more leftist-friendly (with a niche genre of Maoist commune Isekais).

Crapsack World
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_21d70919
comment
Crapsack World: In 1975, the world is for the most part dominated by authoritarian superpowers. Sub-Saharan Africa is a giant colonial playground for mercenaries and corporations, the oppressed peoples trapped within the Nazi and Japanese spheres of influence live in suffering, Eastern Europeans are doomed to be exterminated and replaced by German colonists, and America's worst impulses were unleashed, creating a Jim Crow nation. And on top of that Earth is heading towards an ecological collapse due to none of the great powers taking any measure to fight pollution. By 1984, Iberia has become the epitome of this trope. The destruction of any and all technology and culture on the peninsula resulted in gigantic famines and epidemics, so much that by the time the Comintern invades it, much of the population is dead, the country is littered with ghost towns, and Spanish culture is practically gone. One UAR soldier unfavorably compares it to the Dark Ages.

Good Is Not Soft
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_21f60711
comment
Good Is Not Soft: The Comintern in general, whose position as the most righteous bloc does not mean it isn't willing to use violence and subversion against fascism and capitalism when it deems those measures necessary. Taken to an extreme with the Revolutionary Militant faction within the Comintern which advocates for constant aggression and revolutionary agitation against the capitalist world, seeing whatever death and destruction caused by the resulting conflicts as paltry compared to if capitalism is allowed to run its course any longer than necessary.It's not coincidental that they make major gains in the 1985 election as the CDN and CPS are seemingly more desperate for profit and markets (to the point of the former extending its protection to genocidal fascist states like the CAR as the red tide nears).

Arcadia: Deconstructed for Falangist Iberia, which creates a hell on Earth bereft of modern medicine. The Visigothic Kingdom of Hessen is founded by various SS occultists seeking to recreate the aesthetics and way of life of tribal Visigoths to a ridiculous degree, with programs such as abolishing cities and enforcing a nomadic or a "village lifestyle" on all people as a way of curtailing "decadence", banning showering and soap and replacing Christianity with a strange religion where the Abrahamic god is the hated enemy of the Aryans, who wage a war against him in the afterlife.

Different World, Different Movies
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_258a5cfe
comment
Different World, Different Movies: Star Wars is never made due to George Lucas being blacklisted from the filmmaking business for "communist sympathies". A series named Star Trek exists but has nothing to do with the OTL version, being made by a Boer expat director who based the series loosely on the Boer Trekkers, with the show focusing on the efforts of the America-coded Democratic Star Confederacy's vanguard fleet to clear habitable planets of natives and subdue them (with the prime directive referring to subjucation protocols). Red Dawn (1984) is made with a heavy dose of white supremacism and antisemitism added to the Dirty Communists invading the USA and a different ending where American and Nazi German forces arrive on time to save the day. The film is originally meant to feature blacks and arabs as the main enemies but this is changed to asians due to few African-Americans and Arab-Americans being willing to act for it and the film is heavily revised to keep it in line with The Hays Code. In general, science-fiction is dominant over fantasy within the Comintern with Afrofuturism, Arabmodernism and other artistic movements being dominant in the 80s and 90s, but fantasy starts to experience a surge in the 2000s as a new fantasypunk movement rises to revise and innovate on fantasy settings to make them more leftist-friendly (with a niche genre of Maoist commune Isekais). Avatar is directed and produced by a film collective made up of indigenous peoples from around the world, becoming a triumph of CGI and worldbuilding with a rich story that explores themes of colonialism, environmentalism and modernity.

Small Name, Big Ego: The All-Danish Social Republic has the ambition to reclaim a "Greater Denmark" encompassing much of Northern Germany, Norway, and Greenland, but doesn't have the means to do and even rely on American aid to just survive. The National Volksrepubliek of the Netherlands goes even further with even less means by intending to "reclaim" its colonial empire, restarting its claims not only on Indonesia and Belgium, but South Africa, Oceania, New Zealand, Ukraine and even the eastern seaboard of the US including NYC (which the state officially refers to as New Amsterdam), which makes the USA wonders if it shouldn't just replace them with more pliable puppets after they induct them into the CDN.

Allohistorical Allusion
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_2a035a26
comment
Allohistorical Allusion: "One China, Two Systems" designates the dual power system in the Republic of China between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China. José Luis de Arrese, the Führer of Falangist Iberia, dies in exactly the same way as Luis Carrero Blanco did IOTL, as the bomb under his car is so powerful it projects it far in the air, leading him to be nicknamed the first Iberian astronaut. The Iberian Falangists' anti-intellectual campaign going as far as executing people for wearing glasses is reminiscent of the atrocities of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. A terrorist group named Boko Haram emerges 20 years earlier than the OTL one. A terrorist attack involving a nerve agent in the Tokyo subway happens 13 years before the OTL Tokyo subway sarin attack. Hugo Banzer declares that if they don't take Santiago by next week, then they can call him a Cojudo (Bolivian slang for dumbass), alluding to Hermann Göring's famous "you can call me Meyer" quote. The term "Tankies", instead of designating supporters of the Soviet invasion of Hungary and other authoritarian measures, exists as a nickname for Hungarian tank regiments (formed from refitted old German tanks) earning their renown during the country's socialist revolution and, soon after, other revolutionary campaigns in Europe in 1984. The State of Tkuma bans the use of Yiddish and Ladino languages in public spaces, with Hebrew as the sole language of the country. This alludes to OTL attempts by Zionist activists in Mandatory Palestine and later the Israeli government to eradicate the use of Yiddish and Ladino among Jews in preference to Hebrew, and make their use socially unacceptable. A news headline announcing a project to create a wooden city is based on a real project. The assassin of Thomas Sankara confesses to committing his crime to impress his fiance, a reason deliberately similar to John Hinckley Jr.'s reason for attempting to assassinate Ronald Reagan OTL. Che Guevara provokes a crisis in Canada when he ends a speech with "Vive Le Québec Libre!", similar to Charles de Gaulle sparking an outcry by declaring the same OTL. A football match between Honduras and El Salvador escalates to a full-blown war, just like the OTL Football War.

Succession Crisis
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_2d768e2d
comment
Succession Crisis: The death of Ramfis Trujillo immediately sparks a power struggle in the Dominican Republic. The death of President Wang Kunlun leads to one as the many factions of the Kuomintang squabble over the direction the country must take. After the Third Reich's leadership are slaughtered in a building fire by Abba "The Burned Jew" Kovner, the subsequent leadership struggle quickly devolves into a full German Civil War. Italy implodes after Il Duce Giani's death, with Vatican City being razed as collateral damage. Post-1984, multiple cardinals across the world have claimed the title of Pope (The Red Catholic Press counts at least nine and the latter "Pope fight" entry counts more than sixteen from around the world). The Popes in the Comintern opt to peacefully settle the succession by convening a council in Luanda, which also serves to discuss reforms of the Church.

 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_2dc3e97c
comment
By 1984, Iberia has become the epitome of this trope. The destruction of any and all technology and culture on the peninsula resulted in gigantic famines and epidemics, so much that by the time the Comintern invades it, much of the population is dead, the country is littered with ghost towns, and Spanish culture is practically gone. One UAR soldier unfavorably compares it to the Dark Ages.

Gendercide
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_3495b94d
comment
Gendercide: The Romanian Iron Guard regime in 1984, in response to the Bucharest-based socialist uprising and Comintern intervention, mobilizes every "able-bodied adult" male it can find (read: able to carry a hand grenade) to fight off the Reds or die trying in a desperate bid to "save" Romania from Communism. When the dust settles and the Comintern forces prevail, it is revealed that 90 percent of the male population of Romania dies in the bloodbath, which leads the new female-dominated Red Romania to hastily seek measures to address the massive gender imbalance on top of the desolation of much of the country outside the Bucharest region. This includes everything from relatively mundane policies like encouraging male-skewed immigration from other parts of the Comintern and providing conventional Natalist incentives to more radical solutions like adopting revolutionary gender-noncomformative family policies, legalizing polyamory and conducting experiments in communal living and child-raising.

Kick the Dog: The Nazis throw celebrations whenever they successfully exterminate an entire ethno-religious group they consider sub-humans from their sphere of influence. The Japanese forces remains infamous for the numerous atrocities they commit, most notably the Rape of Sri Lanka, during which they destroyed everything of use, poisoned the soils and water sources, and crippled civilians to make them a burden on the independent govenrment. Among the most heinous crimes the United States commit is the Decimation of Iceland during George H. W. Bush's invasion to clear the way to Europe. It starts by nuking the German fleet anchored at Reykjavik, instantly erasing half of the island's population in the process. This nuclear attack is followed by American troops systemically terrorizing, raping and destroying every trace of human civilization in the land with the full blessing of their high command in order to punish the "ungrateful" Icelanders and set a threatening example to wavering CDN members. Those who aren't killed or part of the 40 000 refugees who successfully fled to Greenland in the ensuing campaign are then deported away to Antarctica or Tkuma if they're luckier (being passed as Scandinavian crypto-Jews).

La Résistance: Insurgent groups exist everywhere autoritarianism does and are particularly present within the spheres of the superpowers. In Vietnam, the Viet Minh continued to fight a guerilla war against the Japanese and the collaborators until they overthrow finally them. In Ireland the Socialist-IRA becomes the main insurgent force against the Nazis and the CDN. However it doesn't survive the 1984 Crisis and is replaced by the Irish Revolutionary Republican Army after the reunification of Ireland under the CDN. Leftist insurgencies spring up in most of Central and South America due to being greatly empowered by the suppression of any electoral alternative, especially after 1984, with Costa Rica's in particular essentially becomes their country's de facto army, defending them from CDN incursions and right-wing counter-insurgencies and Peru's taking control of entire regions. Prior to the McMath presidency, the US's brutal crackdowns on the Civil Rights movements and numerous other left-wing, progressive tendencies largely radicalized the American Left into this. The largest organizations of which, the Rainbow Coalition and the CPUSA, advocate for dual-power, mass struggle and even armed resistance against the American state, even after McMath's pragmatic attempts to mend bridges with them.

Former Regime Personnel: The Russian Empire employs some of the former Russian warlords for its own purposes: Ivan Serov managed to survive the Komi power struggle and to secure himself a position in the Russian Empire's Okhrana, where he created a secret ordosocialist clique. Alexander Pokryshkin was imprisoned by Tomsk but liberated by the Russian Empire in return for training their new air force. The Eurasian Social Republic ends up doing the same with the remnants of the Tsarist forces, offering them amnesty in exchange for a place in their new state.

The revelation that literally everything he ever knew and loved was not real and mere make belief broke him so much that he threw himself wholly and fully into establishing Nuremberg and making it as insane as possible in an effort to keep the sleeping god entertained and content so he doesn't wake up and the world vanish from existence.

Historical Hero Upgrade
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_3e8d9cd3
comment
Historical Hero Upgrade: Josef Stalin, as a result of losing the Soviet power struggle to Nikolai Bukharin, never takes power in the USSR. However, certain theories and economic proposals of his have positively impacted his legacy after their tremendously successful implementation in some Comintern countries. As a result, he is remembered as a brilliant if controversial revolutionary and theoretician, with some believing he would have led the Comintern to victory and prosperity had he taken power instead of Bukharin. Mao Zedong dies during the Second Sino-Japanese War and his legacy is impacted in a similar way to Stalin's. He never became a dictator and some of his ideas survived him to be implemented in a democratic fashion by various Comintern countries in Asia inspired by Maoism. Gamal Abdel Nasser leads a much more democratic and successful UAR than OTL and retires rather than die in office, though he was a Permanent Elected Official until then. Kim II-sung never became a dictator, instead being remembered as a hero of the Great Asian War fighting the Japanese in Manchuria. After the war he became a leader of the Korean-Chinese community and a clandestine supporter of Korean independence groups until he retired from politics. Muammar Gaddafi is a fully democratic leader in TLM as the Chairman of the Comintern. He retains his OTL Cloudcuckoolander and Warhawk tendencies in service of humankind.

CARThe flag of the Confederation of Aryan Republics is a gaudy and menacing image sloppily blending together elements of the flags of the American Betsy Ross, the Confederate Stars and Bars, the Teutonic Order's Grandmaster standard, and the Second German Reich's banner, signifying the historic destiny of the supposed master race colonizing the lands of "subhuman savages" to build their own self-governing agricultural paradises from the Northern Crusades to Generalplan Ost. This commemoration of the worst aspects of German and American history is joined by a nod to the ancient Greek city state of Sparta in the Swastika-bearing Hoplite 'Aspis', referencing the CAR's self-image as a Spartiate society wherein German settlements are sustained by Slavic/Baltic "helots" kept in line by the militaristic Aryan ruling caste.

In the process, it has become a model for minority rights and self-determination (and refuge to many persecuted ethnic groups in surrounding nations) as well as a major technological contributor in Comintern development programs. The French People's Republic immediately attempts to build bridges with nations formerly colonized by France through cultural exchange and developmental programs. Though not without suspicion and old grudges resurfacing (especially within the ASU after Sankara's assassination in Paris), the former colonies have been warmly receptive of France's overtures for the most part. Türkiye/Anatolia, after its revolution, has made major strides in addressing the old republic's history of genocide and imperialism. Australia (eventually Oceania), while still remaining liberal and capitalist under its Labor-dominated government, has set out to "decolonize" itself (beginning with the repeal of White Australia and implementing other anti-racist legislation) and fight fascism and Japanese imperialism abroad while coordinating with the Comintern ever since its humbling defeat at its hands in the Great African War along with the rest of the OFN. Subverted as some of its methods of doing so have been criticized as misguided, paternalistic and unintentionally bigoted however well-intentionednote with conditioning welfare to aboriginal communities on them having more children as the most notable example. More skeptical voices within the Comintern see it as simply a cynical attempt by the Australian ruling class at revitalizing their nation as a major power through immigration and trade. The Free Socialist Republic of Deutschland based in Alsace-Lorraine is often stereotyped within the Comintern as a nation full of Atoner Complexes. In general, European communist nations (especially in Eastern Europe) address their past histories of vicious antisemitism and pass Right of Return laws for Jewish families who emigrated or were forcefully displaced, leading to a small but stable Jewish community in Comintern-controlled Europe to slowly regrow in their historic lands after being decimated by decades of genocide at the hands of the Einheitspakt and Tsarist Russia.

Crazy-Prepared: Due to being landlocked and surrounded by hostile nations, Kyrgyzstan has adopted extreme measures to survive such as the codifying universal conscription for all citizens regardless of sex, and the dedication of a large portion of its economic abilities to the defense budget. The average Kyrgyz citizen goes through a two-year mandatory military service and even afterward is expected to take part in routine exercises and drills as well as enlist in the worker and peasant militias, with longer service periods mandated for specialists such as engineers and medics. It has proven a wise investment when the Kyrgyz people managed to fight off a joint Tajik-Uzbek invasion in 1967, followed by an attempted incursion by Kazakhstan the next year.

Eagle Squadron: The International Revolutionary Brigades, the Comintern's international military force, includes members from neutral and antagonistic nations. During the Great African War, the OFN receives foreign volunteers, including the Garvey Regiments from America and the Pan-Europa forces from the Einheitspakt (including many former SS and non-Germans promised honorary Aryan status for service or simply press-ganged). Meanwhile the Comintern receives help from Chinese, Brazilian and Azad Hind volunteers. The Coalition of Democratic States creates its own version of the IRB, the Global Democracy Legions.

The addition of Malta in 1985 makes it the world's only tri-continental state. After the Great African War the African Socialist Union spans the entire continent, with the exception of the parts belonging to the United Arab Republic.

Reassigned to Antarctica: Prior to Oberländer's ascendency, the Nazi regime used the Eastern colonies as a dumping ground for party members and National Socialist theoreticians whose views were considered too heterodox but not too dangerous to be executed. These exiles would become the founders of the Confederation of Aryan Republics.

Enemy Mine: During the Karelian War, Mikhail Oktan bungled the war and his reputation with Murmansk hard enough that the socialists among the Russian rebels allied with Red Finland to drive him back. The Russian and Finnish socialists became allies afterwards but not without ethnic tensions. During the Great African War OFN troops and SS volunteers, who were enemies during the South African War, find themselves fighting side by side against the African independentists as both want to maintain colonial rule in Africa. Following the collapse of Nazi Germany, the remnants of the German sphere, even hardline Nazi states, chose to accept American help and CDN membership to protect themselves from the Comintern.

You Cannot Kill An Idea: Despite the collapse of the USSR, Communism survived and even makes a return, with even a Neo-Bukharinist faction within the Comintern. Despite Mao Zedong's death, the CPC and guerillas across Asia continue to keep his ideas alive. Ultra-visionary Socialism survived Zhdanov's death thanks to Nikolai Kardashev's survival, becoming part of the Comintern's Cybernetic Marxist faction. Lev Gumilyov's Eurasianism survived his death but in a changed form, syncretized with other ideologies left- and right-wing.

Pragmatic Villainy: The Sejima regime pragmatically grants concessions and benefits to certain groups and nations in the Sphere in order to shore up domestic support and cultivate a comprador class and so make its regime much more sustainable. Their Korean conscripts are kept loyal by the promises of more privileges or even land grants in China for honorable service. The Shahdom of Persia adopts welfare and egalitarian reforms for the survival of its regime, which remains authoritarian towards dissenting voices in newly-acquired territory who oppose annexation.

World War III: An unofficial one kicks off in 1984, later gaining the nickname "The Great Jihad", and dies down by the year's end.

In the case of the Nazis, the Third Reich's nuclear codes are lost in the chaos of the German Civil War.

Fictional Political Party: Factions of the Comintern: Revolutionary Militants. They are united by an aggressive foreign policy, mass mobilization and militarism, believing there can be no peace with capitalism. They include Thomas Sankara and Muammar Gaddafi. Cybernetic Marxists. Techno-optimists who focus on science and technology as the pathway to communism with ambitions towards full automation, life extension and space exploration. They focus on supporting education and scientific advancement in the Comintern. They include Ali Sabri and Nikolai Kardashev. Religious Socialists. They gather all those syncretizing religion and socialism and want to promote their doctrines to the non-socialist faithful. They are moderate and can lean conservative and have a pacifist foreign policy. Neo-Bukharinists. Those who still adhere to the ideas of Nikolai Bukharin despite the fall of the USSR, advocating for variants of Bukharin's New Economic Policy too build up the Comintern's industry. Their reform proposals are notably more mundane but nonetheless capable and are moderate on social and foreign policy issues. International Supremacists. Primarily composed of left communists but not only, they are the most radical advocates for turning the Comintern into a world government. Contrary to most, they see liberal and progressive capitalist powers as the greater threat due to being much more sustainable systems than a fascism doomed to collapse. They include Svetlana Bukharina. Agrarian Socialists. Socialists who focus on rural, agrarian and local interests but are not united on other issues. National Communists. Left-wing nationalists solely united by their opposition to empowering the Comintern. Ecological Leftists. Socialists united by a concern of the environmental degradation brought on by human/capitalist actions, especially the often disastrous endeavors of fascist regimes. They are almost as techno-optimist and belligerent as the Cybernetic Marxists and the Revolutionary Militants respectively. The Confederation of Aryan Republics is ruled by the Aryan Farmer and Laborer's National Socialist Party, officially a single party containing multiple factions but de facto multiple Nazi parties in a trenchcoat.

Private Military Contractors: The OFN hires the finest mercenaries to supplement their troops in Sub-Saharan Africa after the USA withdrew from the organization. The Sejima regime relies on PMCs to police and garrison the regions of China it occupies. The Soldier Kingdom of Prussia essentially acts as one within post-Reich Germany and even occasionally beyond in other CDN hotzones with active insurgencies like in Latin America. The main authority is handled by a military junta in coordination with American bureaucrats, which deploys mercenary brigades to the rest of Germany to provide “security services�, which can include participating in border skirmishes, strike-breaking and putting down rebellions. This arrangement is maintained both to rake in a massive profit as well as to keep Germany perpetually destabilized and fractured.

The Paraguayan People's Republic uses Canción del Pueblo Paraguayo (Song of the Paraguayan People), a fictional song commemorating Paraguayan workers and peasants.

It is also shown that the Western liberal democracies of the OFN and later the CDN, while not as vile as the European fascist states or Imperial Japan, are not too far removed as they'd like to believe, with their oppressive racialized hierarchies existing under the hypocritical guise of "liberty" (as seen in their colonies or under segregation), and this only worsens in a world where such concepts are legitimized by Nazi Germany's "success". This comes to a head when the United States becomes the new master of the former German sphere and allows into the CDN not one but several fascist states.

Les Collaborateurs: Despite being defeated during the French Civil War, a collaborationist regime was restored in France after the German-Iberian invasion of France in 1974. The British collaborators are still in power in the UK under A. K. Chesterton at the start of the Quest. Some wealthier African-Americans have come to support segregation due to obtaining a privileged position within its racial hierarchy, they are known as "Albino Dons". Park Chung-hee, better known in-universe as Takagi Masao, is the first and only Korean member of the Japanese Diet.

Among the most heinous crimes the United States commit is the Decimation of Iceland during George H. W. Bush's invasion to clear the way to Europe. It starts by nuking the German fleet anchored at Reykjavik, instantly erasing half of the island's population in the process. This nuclear attack is followed by American troops systemically terrorizing, raping and destroying every trace of human civilization in the land with the full blessing of their high command in order to punish the "ungrateful" Icelanders and set a threatening example to wavering CDN members. Those who aren't killed or part of the 40 000 refugees who successfully fled to Greenland in the ensuing campaign are then deported away to Antarctica or Tkuma if they're luckier (being passed as Scandinavian crypto-Jews).

Balkanize Me: The Greek Civil War of 1972 ended with the country divided between a socialist north and capitalist south. The Irish Crisis ends with the division of the island between a Pakt puppet in the north and a CDN puppet in the south. The country is reunified under the latter during the 1984 Crisis. When Fascist Italy finally collapses, it breaks up into tens of pieces, resulting in balkanization being known as italinisation in TLM. Eventually they consolidate under the Comintern into a dozen of polities in a loose confederation. The fate of the German Reich after its collapse, being divided into rival successor states loosely united by the CDN and the threat of Comintern invasion. After the fall of the British fascist government, Great Britain is balkanized again by the USA into England, Scotland, Wales and Cornwall, all puppet states. The Second Russian Civil War ends with Russia divided between two Eurasian states. Switzerland collapses when the deputized fascist and ultranationalist militias of remnants fleeing France, Germany and Italy seize power for themselves in corresponding linguistic regions while the remnants of the Swiss government hold on to a small portion of its territory.

Eagleland: Type 2 to the extreme. The USA in TLM no longer represents the bastion of any sort of liberty with its worst aspects unshackled and any redeeming quality long gone after the Wallace and Schlafly presidencies. Racial segregation is constitutionally enshrined, white supremacist violence is normalized, eugenics are still accepted practices, the government tests sterilization programs targeting minorities and violently suppresses opposition outside of its Overton window very slanted to the right, regulations and workers' protections were cut down to the benefit of predatory private corporations, and Schlafly's incompetence contributed to worsening misogyny in America by making the idea of a woman in charge of anything laughable.

Instead he managed to get reelected, to their shock and horror. Sid McMath's US election victory is highly unexpected as his opponent was initially riding high in the polls from victorious foreign wars, only for his support to plummet with the stock market crash hitting the USA.

Villain with Good Publicity: Both George Wallace and Phyllis Schlafly managed to be popular enough to be elected for two terms. Wallace's relatively progressive welfare and union legislation in particular proved popular with white working-class Americans alongside his success in prosecuting the South African War to a complete OFN victory. Schlafly's victorious re-election was in part thanks to a massive media campaign bankrolled by several wealthy admirers and lobbyists.

Civil War: Too many to count, with some even occurring within the Comintern itself. China falls into a new civil war after the right-wing factions of the KMT refuse to accept Zhou Enlai, supported by the CPC and the rest of the KMT, as an interim president. The war devolves into a three-way conflict when the revolting faction of the KMT splitting between pro- and anti-Japanese sides. Italy collapses into civil war once news of their Duce Giani's death break out. The German Reich falls into civil after the death of most of its leadership in a fire, quickly followed by the rest of its sphere of puppet regimes under assault by liberals, communists and anti-German fascists eager to free thesmselves from the Nazi jackboot. Following this the socialists in France rise up against the technocratic-fascist puppet government, starting the Third French Revolution. The socialists secure France with the Comintern's help before the CDN can intervene. A similar communist revolution in Hungary quickly removes the fascists from power while another in Romania encounters difficulty requiring much help from the Comintern to succeed. Brazil and Turkey fall into civil war in 1984 as their government reject the electoral victory of the Communists and attempt to suppress them with the help of the far-right. The Communists win in Turkey with Comintern support but the intervention of America in Brazil results in a stalemate, lest the world dies in nuclear fire. The collapse of the Russian army after its failed offensive into China leads to the general collapse of the Empire into civil war. The civil war ends with Russia divided between the Comintern and the CDN each backing a different Eurasian republic. The Filipino Brother War is started by a faction of anti-Comintern national communists opposing the Comintern's demands in resources to prosecute conflicts in which the Philippines are not involved. The war is quickly won by the Comintern but foremost exposes the inequalities of the Comintern structure and a growing dissatisfaction towards it. Afghanistan falls into civil war as Islamists and Maoists rise up against the Royalist government. Yunan/Ionia eventually falls into civil war from the divisions between its many rival ethnicities.

France The flag of the French People's Republic (of Soviets and Communes) is evocative of multiple aspects of French revolutionary history. It is the French tricolor dominated by its red portion which is large enough to resemble the red banner of the Paris Commune, showing the historical progression from the original bourgeois nationalist revolution starting from 1789 to the realization of the internationalist proletarian revolution from 1871 to 1972/1984 (Commune to the first and second People's Republics, respectively). The cog and wreathe symbolize nature and agriculture in harmony with industry and technology, while the Red Poppy both commemorates the original Red Poppy uprising by the enslaved workers of Ordenstaat Burgund (within the larger French Civil War) as well as the sacrifices they and so many other martyred French toilers have made towards a peaceful and prosperous future.

The Dissenter Is Always Right: The only Central Asian nation to not participate in the attempted invasion of Kyrgyzstan in 1984, Karakalpakstan, is the only one to not have its army annihilated by tactical nuclear weapons.

Nuclear Option
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_a08b0736
comment
Nuclear Option: After Bharat develops nuclear weapons, the Comintern distributes them to its member to allow for a greater coverage by the Nuclear Umbrella. Nukes end up being used in 1984 when other powers try to invade fringe Comintern nations thinking they would be safe from this trope. Finland erases the invading Swedish fleet using a nuclear torpedo. They later do the same to the CAR's navy, although the strikes kill several hundred slaves being used as human shields. Facing impossible odds, Chile launches several nuclear strikes against positions of the Triple Alliance, instantly inverting the course of the war and allowing Bolivia, whose army was vaporized, to be couped by Comintern-friendly militias. Kyrgyzstan launches three nukes against the invading armies of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, instantly throwing the three nations into chaos.

Evil Luddite: The Iberian Falangists engage in a massive de-industrialization and de-urbanization campaign, reasoning that the only way to truly eradicate socialism, syndicalism, or any strain of leftism is to eradicate the industry and urban areas from which they arise, resulting in mass deaths, the destruction of Iberia's academic base and Iberia becoming fully dependent on Germany for all non-military related industries and reliant on Ukrainian grain.

Assassination Attempt: David Ben-Gurion was assassinated by a Lehite extremist. Except not really. Phyllis Schlafly is shot shortly after her re-election by an unidentified gunman, dying two days later. Huey Newton manages to survive multiple and flees to the ASU, now one of the few surviving figures of the U.S. Civil Rights and Black Power movements. The President of the Republic of China Wang Kunlun is assassinated by a Falun Gong initiate after increased government scrutiny over the cult's ties with the U.S. Thomas Sankara is assassinated shortly after his retirement. A failed attempt is made on US President McMath's life, which serves only to radicalize him into pushing bolder reforms.

Internal Reformist: American President Sid McMath, who attempts to enact progressive reforms for the benefit of all Americans regardless of race. However the previous administrations made the issues he tries to combat very well-entrenched and he is going to be accused of crypto-bolshevism and stonewalled by his opponents no matter what he does despite being clearly in words and deeds a progressive capitalist with an anti-communist outlook, all of it making implementing even the mildest items on his agenda difficult. Surviving his assassination attempt radicalizes him into pushing a bolder but still reformist agenda.

Final Solution: The Nazis never stopped their extermination projects. In America: The US government launched a secret program to sterilize Puerto Ricans to test if this would be a feasible to reduce “troublesome� populations to controllable levels with minimal disruptions. The project is discontinued after its discovery and the subsequent backlash. Several southern states create "Negro-free zones". Certain states outside the South with relatively sparse African-American populations beforehand such as Wyoming, Montana and Vermont have declared themselves "Negro-free" after "inexplicable black flight". Nazi-ruled Norway and independent Sweden both deport the entirety of their Sami populations. Falangist Iberia launches an extermination campaign against the Basques, Catalans and Galicians.

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Phyllis Schlafly is ironically the Comintern's favorite American president for turning a blind eye to their expansion and even allowing private companies to sell equipment to Comintern nations. Had the USA decided to crush the Comintern in its infancy, it would have likely succeeded. The Hamburg Volksstaat accidentally creates a Maoist revolt against itself after disseminating Mao's work among their population due to misinterprating it as anti-communist because of translation errors. Canada attempts to counter the growing the Quebec independence movement as it picks up steam after Che's speech by violently repressing it further, which only serves to legitimize and fuel the movement.

Once it is fully reunited and reorganized under the CDN in 1984, Ireland's full name is changed to the "Free Democratic Republic of Ireland" and it is anything but. A thinly-veiled neocolonial vassal state which is constantly pillaged by American corporations as part of the CDN-mandated "free market" reforms, it must crack down on popular unrest lest the CDN does the job itself, as it made clear with the massacre of the Ulster-based Provisional People's Republic of Irelandnote The short-lived socialist republic established by northern IRA cells after they toppled the Pakt puppet state.

Fictional Flag
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_bc9ddc86
comment
Fictional Flag: Contributors to the Quest created many fictional flags for its nations. Some examples: Flags of the Comintern France The flag of the French People's Republic (of Soviets and Communes) is evocative of multiple aspects of French revolutionary history. It is the French tricolor dominated by its red portion which is large enough to resemble the red banner of the Paris Commune, showing the historical progression from the original bourgeois nationalist revolution starting from 1789 to the realization of the internationalist proletarian revolution from 1871 to 1972/1984 (Commune to the first and second People's Republics, respectively). The cog and wreathe symbolize nature and agriculture in harmony with industry and technology, while the Red Poppy both commemorates the original Red Poppy uprising by the enslaved workers of Ordenstaat Burgund (within the larger French Civil War) as well as the sacrifices they and so many other martyred French toilers have made towards a peaceful and prosperous future. Flags of the rest of the world CARThe flag of the Confederation of Aryan Republics is a gaudy and menacing image sloppily blending together elements of the flags of the American Betsy Ross, the Confederate Stars and Bars, the Teutonic Order's Grandmaster standard, and the Second German Reich's banner, signifying the historic destiny of the supposed master race colonizing the lands of "subhuman savages" to build their own self-governing agricultural paradises from the Northern Crusades to Generalplan Ost. This commemoration of the worst aspects of German and American history is joined by a nod to the ancient Greek city state of Sparta in the Swastika-bearing Hoplite 'Aspis', referencing the CAR's self-image as a Spartiate society wherein German settlements are sustained by Slavic/Baltic "helots" kept in line by the militaristic Aryan ruling caste.

Evil Reactionary: The Nazis and fascists in general believe in a return to a fantasized glorious past and violently oppose any change from this vision. The Russian Empire wants to restore the autocratic Russia from before the February and October Revolutions and shares the old empire's rabid antisemitism. American Presidents George Wallace and Phyllis Schlafly. Wallace is a segregationist and general racist who successfully prevented the advancement of civil rights for oppressed groups and blacks especially. Schlafly believes in a return to "traditional values" (in substance a white supremacist, Christian nationalist and misogynistic society) and undoes all New Deal policies and Wallace's populist legislation, allowing private companies to exploit Americans and other nations as if the Gilded Age had never ended.

comment
Insane Troll Logic: The Iberian Falangists are troubled by the fact that despite all the efforts of the likes of Hitler, Pétain, and even their own Franco, the left seemed to somehow rise again and again in fascist states, even suppressing and exterminating rebellious minorities doesn't work. Their conclusion is that the Marxist theory that leftism and socialism are inevitable byproducts of modern industrial societies is right and therefore the only way to destroy leftism is to destroy industrial society entirely.

Shout-Out: The Free City of Nuremberg, one of the warlord states born of the Reich's explosion, is one to Avant-Garde France from Red Flood. It too is an accelerationist regime led by someone whose title translates as "Le Patron" in French; it also proceeds to declare war on reality (and later on nitrogen, as in the gas). To Overly Sarcastic Productions, as its entry on the dispute between various claimants to the Papacy is entitled "Pope fight" after one of their videos series on this exact subject. The April Fools Day entry is a crossover with The Red Order: First Days of Eurasia, the spinoff of The New Order.

We ARE Struggling Together
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_cbdd9a55
comment
We ARE Struggling Together: George Wallace's rivals in the NPP proved too divided to oppose his nomination for a second term by the party. The OFN is hampered in waging the Great African War because Canada and Australia engage in a bitter struggle to become the new leader of the alliance by blaming each other for their failures against Comintern forces. Pakt volunteers and Zionist militias fighting on the same side in Africa couldn't work with each other for obvious reasons and even sabotaged each other, this would lead to a general collapse of the front. The Filipino Brother War is an extreme case for the Comintern where local national communists take arms against the Comintern because they consider its demands in resources for conflicts not affecting the Philippines to be red imperialism and categorically opposing them. When Cyprus becomes the last stronghold of Turkish and Greek reactionaries and fascists and the remains of the Italian Navy, they attempt to form a coalition against the Comintern bound to invade the island. However this ragtag coalition of anti-communists, all possessing mutually exclusive goals and being mortal enemies of each other mere months ago, is unable to mount a cohesive defense, resulting in their near complete annihilation as their strongholds were torn down by the concentrated might of the Comintern. When the Revolutionary Nationalists from around the world organize a meeting of their movements it quickly devolves into a series of shouting matches, accusations of Judeo-arab Bolshevism, and bringing up national grudges, all of which culminating in the first day of the meeting having to be ended early when a fist fight breaks out. The whole project ends in utter disaster as infighting and mutually exclusive national ambitions makes any alliance or even just cooperation impossible and no further attempts take place.

Sociopathic Soldier: Among the many other examples of this in the quest, the soldiers and militiamen of the Confederation of Aryan Republics somehow exceed standards during the wars of 1984. They think nothing of abusing "non-Aryan" life whether as a sick tactic to gain an edge over the invading Reds (such as the use of Slavic and Baltic slaves as human shields) or simply because it gives them gratification. Not even "Aryan" life is safe as they are not above using their own children as soldiers, even going as far as crafting weapons and explosives small enough to use, to take advantage of the communists' "weakness". In response, the Comintern forces of the Eurasian theatre adopt General Order No. 103 and IRB Order 87 to loosen and suspend laws of war when dealing with CAR personnel.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman

comment
Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman: Ronald Reagan got tossed on the streets after his career bombed and Schlafly's policies practically destroyed Hollywood creative craft unions, leading to massive layoffs, and died from a cocaine overdose. Margaret Thatcher narrowly escaped being purged by the British fascists to the US, where she lived in poverty and destitution, an experience that radicalised her to the left and inspired her to join an underground anarchist group. Kim Jong-Il stays away from politics and pursues a career in filmmaking. Jackie Chan could not pursue an acting career due to anti-Chinese racism and instead would become a cadre of the Communist Party of China in Hong Kong. Bashar al-Assad is pursuing a career as an ophthalmologist, distancing himself from politics. Siad Barre, OTL communist dictator of Somalia, signed up with the Italian colonial auxiliary forces, rose through the ranks until independence after which he died when the UAR invaded Somalia during the Great African War. Christopher Lee volunteered to fight in Finland during the Winter War and stayed there after the fall of the UK before throwing his lot with the Finnish Reds during the Finnish Civil War after being desillusioned with the White Finnish government, becoming a senior agent of the Finnish secret service. Ariel Sharon is a dyed-in-the-wool communist and a decorated commander in the IRB. His family being forcefully relocated by occupying Italian troops from their moshav community into a crowded and impoverished neighborhood in Haifa, along with his interaction with arab communists there, was what radicalized him. Saddam Hussein tried to become a UAR delegate and succeeded for a while before being voted out. Afterwards and now he became a bus driver and writer and cheesy romance novels in his spare time.

The Japanese commit similar atrocities, dismantling, burning and looting as much as they can, and poisoning the soils and sources of water upon withdrawing from Sri Lanka, unable to defeat the pro-Bharat rebels. But some regiments go further by mutilating tens of thousands of young people in an effort to saddle any post-occupation government with the costs of their care.

A Lighter Shade of Gray: Many of the remaining non-aligned blocs are not immediately hostile to the Comintern, though some tend to be more dubious than others: Oceania (formerly Australia and New Zealand/Aotearoa) is the "friendliest" to the Comintern, having formed trade agreements with them and cooperating on ecological conservationism. Their society is still rather racist however, and they have a poor record of indigenous rights. Costa Rica, in an effort to avoid being subsumed by the CDN, CPS, or Comintern, allied itself with Oceania. Imperial Iran liberated the Caucasus from the CAR and outright refused to join the CDN on moral grounds on account of the CAR's membership within it, but they purged their own communists before the Quest began and are shaping to be a regional thorn in the Comintern's Middle Eastern regions. Mexico, in an attempt to avoid further domination by the USA, makes simultaneous offers with the CDN, CPS, the Comintern, and Oceania, making them untrustworthy in the eyes of everyone.

Monumental Damage: The Burgundian SS scrapped the Eiffel Tower in Ost-Paris and used its parts to expand their industrial complex in Rodomo. As part of their efforts to erase non-German culture in the lebensraum, the Nazis destroy Kyiv's St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery and replace it with a golden statue of Adolf Hitler. The year 1984 kicks off with Italian Blackshirts declaring Catholicism to be heretical to Italian Fascism, sparking an orgy of raping, pillaging, and burning across Vatican City that ends with the Pope slaughtered, countless artifacts and tomes destroyed, and the Catholic Church in a succession crisis. During their conquest and genocide of the island, a general policy for US forces in Iceland was to destroy any signs of Old Norse civilization and Icelandic culture, from nordic ruins to museums.

Culture Chop Suey: The Confederation of Aryan Republics merges Nazism with elements of the United States from 1776, the leadership of the CAR making no secret of their admiration for the USA and modelling some of their policies after theirs, they consider both America and Germany to be their "parent states". Both have founding fathers, very autonomous states, a parliament with an executive office much more limited than typical Führerprinzip and multiple political parties (though in the CAR's case they are all officially part of a single party and must all adhere to the CAR's Aryan Thought ideology). The CAR also has Agoge schools inspired by Ancient Sparta.

comment
The Coup: Several attempts were made even before the start of the Quest to overthrow Giani and his mystic fascists from power in Italy. And many more are made right after the revelation of his death. The liberal government of Japan is overthrown by a Military Coup when a group of soldiers deliver an ultimatum to the Diet ending democracy and creating an "emergency government of national salvation" led by Sejima Ryūz�. A coup attempt in 1985 Costa Rica is foiled.

Egopolis: The Nazis build SpeerStadt in Antarctica, self-sufficient city named after the late Führer. After conquering Haiti, the Dominican Republic renamed Port-au-Prince to Trujilloidad after their dictator. After taking over the city, the White Democratic Bastion State establishes Lumumbashi as its capital and renames it "Degrelle", after the late Belgian fascist leader.

Meaningful Rename: As part of the country's "civilizational project" for the creation of a new identity divorced Anglo settle-dominated past Australia is renamed Oceania. New Zealand similarly changes its name to Aotearoa. Both successor states to the Russian Empire abandon the Russian identity in favor of a new Eurasian one with both having different interpretations of it.

Equal-Opportunity Evil: The glorified mercenary company with a state attached in Germany, the Soldier Kingdom of Prussia, practices a unique form of National Socialism where “Aryanness� is determined not by race or ethnicity but rather fighting prowess and ruthlessness. As such, it employs soldiers of all walks of life from across the world, including those conventionally deemed “untermenschen� by Nazis like Slavs and black Africans (particularly Waffen-SS/Wehrmacht veterans from the defunct RKs). This stands in stark contrast with most other post-Reich statelets.

You Are in Command Now: At the start of the Quest the players are given the mission to transform the Comintern from an ad hoc effort to present a united front to a respectable global organization that can actually act as an international government. Rostya Borisov was initially a colonel but was swiftly promoted after many of his higher-ups died from old age one by one until he found himself a general. Then he is chosen as Regent, precisely because he is seen as a nobody with no political experience who can act as a placeholder until a true contender can take the mantle of Regent.

Anti-Climax: The Second West Russian War, rather than the climax and death kneel for Hitler's empire would end up a half-victory for the Russian Empire. The Comintern's Iberian campaign proved to be one. The UAR's army secured the south of the peninsula with little resistance as the Falangists were greatly lacking in modern weapons and ammunitions and afterwards the lack of infrastucture and the ongoing humanitarian disaster proved to be a bigger issue than the Falangist forces melting away upon contact.

People's Republic of Tyranny
 The Long March (Roleplay) / int_eef85d73
comment
People's Republic of Tyranny: Ironically averted by the Comintern. The majority of Comintern member states have "People's" in their name but operate under democratic political systems. Once it is fully reunited and reorganized under the CDN in 1984, Ireland's full name is changed to the "Free Democratic Republic of Ireland" and it is anything but. A thinly-veiled neocolonial vassal state which is constantly pillaged by American corporations as part of the CDN-mandated "free market" reforms, it must crack down on popular unrest lest the CDN does the job itself, as it made clear with the massacre of the Ulster-based Provisional People's Republic of Irelandnote The short-lived socialist republic established by northern IRA cells after they toppled the Pakt puppet state. Amidst the chaos of 1984, the revolting Afrikaner-Belgian settlers in the African Socialist Union establish the "White Democratic Bastion State" which attempts to exterminate/deport the majority-black African population within its borders before the ASU crushes it by the end of the year. The Imperial East Asian Federation purports to be a truly pan-Asian state by granting everyone in it citizenship. However to this is added a tiered system of ethnic-based residencies keeping the Japanese in a privileged position while non-Japanese are restricted at different degrees in their ability to own land and businesses and their residency rights. As an example, there is but a single Korean representative in the entire Diet (and even this is considered going too far for some Japanese nationalists). The Weimar Reich calls itself a democracy but is in truth an oligarchy controlled by the surviving German megacorporations, with political parties identical save for some token issues facing off in meaningless elections. Their politicians still subscribe to Nazism and justify Hitler's dictatorship as a necessary period to purge Germany of subversive elements that would have taken advantage of democracy (which it clearly wasn't). The Free City of Nuremberg is in theory a democracy but actually completely controlled by Der Schrimherr, who rules the city with an iron fist thanks to his charisma, oratory skills and American support.

Heroic Self-Deprecation: Muammar Gaddafi's bluster is partially to hide his deep insecurity about not being as well read or versed in the complexities of theory as his peers, and he suffers deeply from imposter syndrome. Svetlana Bukharina likewise feels like all her achievements and accomplishments come down to her family name alone and all she truly owns are her failures, whether in Komi or the Comintern. Mujahidul Islam knows that he lacks charisma compared to his peers and is deeply afraid of being forgotten as a footnote in history, working himself to the bone on SISO and rarely sleeping more than 5 hours a day.

The Remnant: Reactionary partisans backed by the CPS plague the interior of the Philippines. After the failure of Pinochet's Military Coup, his supporters would continue to fight a guerilla war against the Chilean government. After the end of the Great African War, many surviving European settlers in the ASU still harbor colonialist ideas. They take up arms again with America's support against the Comintern during the 1984 War, during which they are completely destroyed. An American soldier held out in Hawaii for 40 years and managed to return to the mainland, only to be shot and killed immediately upon arrival. The reason? He was Asian.

Resurgent Empire: The USA under Bush successfully makes its come-back on the world stage after eight years of isolationism with foreign interventions and the expansion of its new alliance, the Coalition of Democratic Nations. The United Kingdom attempts to accomplish this by invading Ireland and annexing it. Their failure to do so provokes the opposite, with Nazi Germany's grip on Great Britain being reinforced after the Irish Crisis ends in a stalemate.
