That is surprisingly realistic for *a* war, but for *the* war IRL the Entente was so mad at the Central Powers, their populations so bloodied and bloodthirsty from all the casualties, they were united simply by the desire to destroy them. More than about Syria or Lebanon, the Great Revolution coule have sparked from the fact that Germany and Habsburgs lost practically nothing.

What's kinda funny is, despite Britain screeching about how superior their navy was, it was actually *very* equal between them and the Americans. Assuming the German navy doesn't scuttle itself at Scapa Flow, it's actually the American/German/Italian alliance that has the superior fleet. With the naval treaties not happening due to the war being over, the Americans are only poised to get stronger compared to the Brits - especially considering that Britain is currently(?) in the middle of a socialist revolution and their economy just imploded.
