HP lovecraft literally couldn’t handle a man who wasn’t from New England without a panic attack and he almost died living in New York when he realised that Americans can also have accents (not a joke) So the fact that he leads a State formed by monarchist Canadian brits may be one of his worst nightmares.

The thing is, by the final year of his life Lovecraft had seemingly abandoned much of his earlier racism and paranoia and said in one of his last letters that he was sad and embarassed by his earlier attitudes and looked forward to life without them... so it's wierd that he gets to live longer in Kaiserreich-verse but just... stays hyper-racist?
