​@thespiritphoenix3798 one of the big critisms with the mod is that even though in our timeline the nationalists had almost no way of winning, the cold war mod ensures this through just giving the communists OP buffs and nationalists horrible debuffs, rather than really giving the player a choice, so it will probably keep the difficulty same in historical, but allow options to help the nationalists for an alt history (I just realise how long and kinda redundant this is, sorry)

Probably what happens is Germany is forced to re-align its diplomatic policy. It *might* be possible for Germany to get an alliance with Yugoslavia, as even in our timeline they showed no qualms about allying nations who's peoples were considered "inferior" by nazi ideology. Italy would get several concessions geopolitically. My best guess would have to do something around the Horn of Africa, or perhaps even further concessions with Libya. However, if the right under Pierre Leval is in power, it's entirely possible the French more or less sacrifice the Little Entente for an alliance with Italy, leading in to the backdoor of german realignment in diplomatic policy. I think that Austria is probably doomed no matter what, especially as the German war machine gets going during 1938-1939. My best guess is that it's 1939 Germany incorporates Austria, which may lead into WW2 starting over Austria instead. Of course, this has MASSIVE reprecussions for the alt-Axis war effort, such as germany being massively weaker, and the Allies being significanlty more powerful at the war's outset. Instead of having a WW2 Blitz of France, it might devolve into a rehash of WW1 trench warfare, but with new, more deadly, equipment. Overall, germany gets fuuucked by the Stressa Front, while Italy gets a bunch of stuff for almost free, and France can breathe a sigh of relief dodging the nazi occupation bullet.

The Soviets supported the Warsaw Uprising, giving the rebels supplies and a Soviet tank brigade even attempted to enter Warsaw to support them. The big issue is that the uprising followed Bagration, the largest military offensive in human history, and the Soviets were completely out of steam: overextended, undersupplied, and dealing with German and collaborator remnants.

@@maxthetube8466 This is a commonly repeated myth that most historians don't agree upon. The USSR already had a decently strong collaborator government that could've easily taken control in the aftermath of the Uprising if it succeeded: the governments of the eastern bloc were all _relatively_ popular when they were established, with the Czechoslovak Communist Party outright winning an electoral plurality. They probably wouldn't in Poland, but the USSR had eager and powerful collaborators that could easily rival and outshine the Home Army even if the USSR did support the Uprising more. It wasn't really a question of Germany being able to stop Soviet advances. The Soviet Union literally could not continue advancing. They were overstretched and dealing with resistance in their liberated territories and coming off of the largest land offensive in human history. They did not have the infrastructure, plain and simple, to cross the Vistula: especially because, as the Soviets overextended themselves more and more, German resistance _did_ become stronger: not enough to stop Soviet advances, but enough to probably make it more trouble than it's worth to not build up the necessary infrastructure more and more before launching a better planned, stronger offensive.

Stak, I don't think you give Chiang Kai Chek enough credit. The man knew things like land reform were necessary, but he also knew that engaging in reforms while the chaos of the Chinese Civil War and the 2nd Sino-Japanese War was foolish when he needed to balance the various interests within his government. And of course once the conflicts were over and Chiang started to engage those reforms, you are absolutely right that they would be relatively limited and take place in fits and starts. But Chiang definitely would've done so. The man was no fool. He knew the benefits of land reform, if only in a limited capacity. It can be very difficult to separate the man from the state he governed. China of the 1930s and 40s was horribly backward and corrupt and Chiang knew this needed to be fixed if China was to survive and ultimately thrive. The funny thing about the Communists as compared to the KMT, they didn't need to work within the preexisting system in order to implement reforms, whereas the KMT did.

@@stakuyi Not saying he would maintain power. Also, these desires of his existed well before his exile to Taiwan when he had some pretense of ruling all of China, so his desires wouldn't have changed had he actually unified China (minus Manchuria). Now, whether or not he was actually capable of seeing through his desires on the other hand... *shrugs* it's hard to say. But generally speaking, I think there's a tendency of people to color their outlook of Chiang at a personal level by looking at the state of China paired with the KMT's ultimate loss in the Civil War and say that he must have been incompetent. Now, I think whether or not that's accurate warrants a deeper dive, instead of condemning the man for things that weren't entirely his fault.

​@@stakuyi He was actually trying to install democracy into China and avoid civil war; the current ROC's constitution was based on a draft that was agreed upon by the Political Consultative Conference (yes, including CCP) and almost nothing like KMT's version. The national elections were called in December 1947 even though many KMT officials knew that the KMT might not won the election if the CCP actually participated (CCP was holding most of the Northern provinces, KMT only holding some cities and railway in the North), in the end, CCP did not participate and called the election not democratic making KMT the majority party in both the National Congress and Legislative Yuan. KMT knew that they couldn't afford another war after WWII; everything was destroyed, the industrial regions and agricultural regions all burned to the ground plus the USA was focusing on rebuilding Europe instead of Asia, there were just no resources to fight. But for whatever reasons, the USA still believed that the CCP would be siding with the USA if winning the civil war; refusing to support ROC in 1949 after the CCP started the civil war backed by the USSR till the communist regime was formed. I think he did not trust anyone and believed only he could save China after he was forced to step down in 1949 then almost all of mainland China fell into the Communists' hands right after.

He probably kept Puyi in Manchukuo on a leash from collaborating as much since his job was to administer only Manchuria as a staging base for further Japanese invasion.

Winning the civil war is really easy if you just use the cancel retreat trick where you can use ctrl+shift+alt+click to make your retreating divisions attack the enemy. Though your divisions lose all their org and take a beating, once they stop attacking, they don’t rejoin whatever defensive combat they were retreating from until said combat is over, allowing your divisions to recover org in Shanghai when otherwise it would be impossible to do so. I only fell back from the Gobi desert and a few tiles in Anhui to shorten the line, then had 4-9 divisions per tile depending on terrain and attack directions, and 2-3 divisions per tile with the unplanned offensive modifier. Lasting the 50 days necessary is just a matter of watching your lines and cancelling any retreats you see the moment they start.

There's one smart thing I think Chiang Kai Chek could have done to secure a lot of loyalty from the warlords AND improve relations with the west. During the wars leading up to 1949 (you covered this in the history behind the Chinese economic crisis) was that the various warlords paid for their troops and equipment with promisary notes to outside powers (the warlord bonds I think they were called). This was debt that had to be later recognized by the CCP in order to enter the global financial community. What Chang COULD have done was offer to take on the debt of the warlords in lieu of actual cash payments, thus basically bribing them with a clean slate in exchange for loyalty, and not deepening the economic crisis as the state would have had to pay it anyways. This does several things that would help the autocratic government maintain control: 1. The bribes help prop up warlord loyalty because well...they're bribes. 2. centralizing the debt to the state itself probably would significantly boost economic investment because it means that the investors only have to deal with one major debt holder which is an actual government rather than dozens of warlords... increasing the ease of acquiring payments back on those debt. 3. If the state is holding all of the debt these warlords accrued, then you end up with almost a hostage debtor situation where debtor countries like the United States don't want to lose out on their investment, and so they would be more willing to invest even more funds/assistance to the Chinese Republic in order to make sure the state stays around to make good on that debt payment. You can't collect debt from the corpse of a nation. 4. with the central government receiving increased investments, this may incentivize even more warlord stability as the Warlords know that the central government is the one getting the money from outside countries, so staying loyal means a steady paycheck. This wouldn't be a magic bullet, but it would likely be a proactive move that would payback massive dividends. Great video as always Stak. Can't wait for the next one.

One thing that most don’t mention was the history between the CCP and the KMT. The leadership of both sides were all alumni and sometimes even classmates from the Huangpu military academy (the kmt accepted military training from the soviets in the early days before Chang Kai purged them). This made it incredibly easy for kmt generals to defect, after all, your classmates will never kill you. After the war, people found out that many of Chang Kai’s general staff where sympathetic to the CCP all along. It’s no wonder they lost.

I really like the Stresa Front scenario that I suggested but this is interesting too. There are so many moments in which Italy could have not joined the german side...

Thea scenario of a ROC China is something deeply fascinating. It obviously would’ve lead China into so many different futures, with the democratization Sun Yat-Sen had always yearned for being one of those possibilities. I’ve played the mod myself and for each decade, there is a new tech tree to follow. I think it would be great if you continued on this timeline and extended it to the 80s to 90s, going over the rise of democratic movements in Asia, the fall of the Communist sphere and how ROC China would’ve navigated and experienced it.

Stakuyi you should get the State Transfer Tool mod even in your non-modded playthroughs so you can make more realistic peace deals. Since there have been a few incidents where the game screwed you over in terms of historical accuracy, I figured this might help. It can also (if I remember right) demilitarize states and things like that for better RP.

I remember watching Colonel Cam doing this and he actually managed to do this legit. Though it took him multiple days and retries before he was able to hold Shanghai long enough to be able to get rid of the debuffs. After that he just kept South China and waited until the communists started having gaps in the lines before finally doing counterattacks and taking back china.

Video 18 of asking stakuyi to play as the Katzenartig Imperium in equestria at war It is an april fools collaboration between the devs from EaW and the devs from the stellaris mod Gigastructural Engineering, the nation is the kingdom of abyssinia, you play as Kaiser Kattail, who has just arrived from another reality and attempts to take over the world utilizing his knowledge of mechanized warfare and megastructures to give his empire a gigantic edge. (for his focus tree to show up, you have to enable it at the game rules menu at the bottom)

The assumption on what Chiang was and what he would do in this alternate time line is very biased and based on anti-Chiang sentiments that really did not have any real basis in fact. Many of these assumptions about how corrupt and dictatorial Chiang was came from Stilwell who hated Chiang for personal reasons. After Stilwell was removed, US government had a much better relation when Wedemeyer was in office. Chiang directed reforms such as land reforms and held local elections right after 1949 after the government retreated to Taiwan. If the war turned into a north/south split, Chiang would still have gone the routes of gradual reforms. In fact, that was exactly what Chiang and the Nationalists planned to do. The gradual reforms and political opening laid out by Sun Yat-Sen. Without the wars against Japan and the Communists, the Nationalist would have done just that. Even during the war, Chiang planned to do so after the war ended. Li Zhong-ren do not have the support if Chiang was able to fight the communists to a split. Also, Chiang's relationship to the US is not bad, considering Madam Chiang and the relationship to US generals such as Chennault. Yes, there are many people in the State Dept that hated Chiang, but if Chiang can for the communists to stay in the Northeast, then things might change. And don't forget Chiang was a devout Christian who welcomed Christian influences and missionaries to China. He encouraged Christianity in Taiwan throughout his life. So it is more likely in this scenario for Chiang to lead China on a path of gradual reforms, such as land reform and political reform. And the land that the peasants get would truly stay theirs, unlike the Communists who took back all the land that they gave out.
