Based on a political roleplay based on the hoi4 mod red dusk. Also yes the war ended in a Soviet victory, if things went longer a red dawn would come to America. NATO sued for peace after fucking up Normandy.

This is a meme for a new project I'm working on.

Basic premise is that Harold Godwinson and William the Bastard both die at Hastings as this creates a power vacuum and you have threats internal and external all fighting for the right to become the next ruler of England.

Does this count as a meme?

Anyways, the context being that United was a completely different party, being founded as a political vehicle for the "Russxit" movement which advocated for Russia to leave the Union of Sovereign States.

After the USS was dissolved, United kinda became lost and desperately needed a new identity. The merger between United and All-Russia became a bigger deal for the Russxit party, and so the logo adopted elements from both party's designs.

Then one day, all of a sudden, amidst the Russian Culture War

(when the media was unrestricted, the internet access became widespread, and travel to western nations increased, creating a period of clashes between the old and new ideas), United Russia quietly replaced their logo with the Russian tricolor. Some have speculated that this was because they didn't want to be associated with the rising pride movement within Russia.

Our beloved Spanish Empire and the German Empire had been the protagonists of the Cold War (1949-1994). Until the 1970's, the thing was quite equal, some even claimed that the German Empire was ahead thanks to it's triumph in the Space Race.

However, the Indonesian War (1974-1976) turned out to be a turning point in the conflict.

You see, German-backed Indonesia had the balls to start a war with Spain after a diplomatic incident related to the sovereignty of the Riau Islands (Islas de los Bajos). Indonesia thought that the jungle of Borneo would be pretty easy to defend. However, the Spanish would prove them wrong, annexing the whole island.

Spain would be really happy with its new toy in Asia, but however they would have to donate some. You see, keeping Spanish India and Ceylon was quite expensive and also, they were a logistical nightmare. With full control of the Malacca Strait and basically, the whole Pacific, it didn't make much sense to keep them. The solution? Giving them "controlled independence", like they did before with Indochine. At the end, this maneuver ended up dooming the Kaiserreich.

The German response was trying to destabilise the United States of Greater Austria, in an attempt to leave Spain without a very important ally and looting some Habsburg booty. However, this brilliant idea would become a very fancy way to waste a lot of money.

In 1994, after Kaiser Louis Ferdinand I died, king Albert VI of Bavaria, tired of the bunch of German anti-Catholic laws, broke ties with Berlin and declared independence, then German New Guinea did the same. Aware of then German collapse, Ukrainian president Yuriy Kostenko left the Reichspakt, followed by Belarus. Soon, Belgium, Burgundy, Champagne, Mittelafrika, and Baden declared independence.

Then, the Reichsheer became very pissed and threw a military coup, which succeeded only partially. The full scale collapse of the Kaiserreich had been avoided and Prussia wouldn't sit alone, but definitely it wasn't the soul of the party now. Baden, Württemberg, Togoland, Alsace, Luxembourg and Lorraine seceded from the German Empire, and Saxony also planned to do it. The territorial camera of the German Parliament, the Bundesrat, had no choice but to disband the Reichspakt and try to protect the German Empire from collapsing, gathering around Prussia.
