How My Viewers Messed Up the World After WW1 

Reminder: So much has changed, I cannot make this a realistic scenario. If I did, it would be 20 minute of me going "But so much has changed, we simply don't know!"

Hope there will be a part 3 , I'm getting invested into this

Compared to the other viewer votes, this is surprisingly more peaceful than thought it was going to would be.

I really want part 3 now, this is actually a very interesting scenario

As a german I absolutely love the franco german polish friendship of this scenario

I am astounded the viewers actually managed to prevent Weimar from collapsing. Also that they shit they did didn't end in disaster generally.

The most cursed thing about this Versailles is that it makes Liechtenstein to Switzerland what Lesotho is to South Africa

This video deserves a sequel its really well made and i think the ww2 scenario you made is perfect

I can't believe so much changed by France not getting the Saarland. This should absolutely become a hoi4 mod.

i like how this gave a story instead of vague scenarios its more entertaining

Video Idea: What if Venice, over multiple centuries, unified Italy?

i love how cartoonishly small the voters made russia in an attempt to destroy them, only for them to become stronger than in our own timeline

He ended the video with saying "Hope you learned something". Right after JSH accused him with not teaching us anything. Idk if its a coincidence but its funny.

Didn't expect the EU-esque direction you went with but it does seem possible and a nice change of pace from how horribly I expected this to go

What if everything went perfect for the Kingdom of Italy?

Video Idea: What if everything went terrible for England?

Hey, at least we avoided the funny mustache man from coming to power in Germany! That has to count for something, right? ... right?

It is weird to see a European ww1 scenario where there is no communism

I’m sorry :c

Notice how the title is "messed up" and not "ruined"

Russia supporting the... Turks?! Against the greek?!

This treaty was kinda stable compared to the real treaty of Versailles (except the balkans and asia) but I think ww2 would not happen in this timeline as destructive as the real

I will do one push-up for every like this comment gets

I feel like every alternate history for Hungary I've seen was kinder or more successful for Hungary than in our own timeline lol

I find this scenario fascinating in a lot of ways, but In terms of where you left it, I'd like to zoom in on Romania. I'd imagine in your Balkan war scenario, their military performs fairly well to successfully cross the Danube and secure Dobruja, without even collapsing to Hungarian pressure and holding the mountain line. Losing Dobruja when they had won World War 1 would have already been an outrage, but losing what they'd gained in Transylvania too would I imagine, be a very large bruise. Economically and Geographically Romania may have been forced to align with the "Axis", but even more so than OTL, they despise nearly every one of their supposed "allies" for various reasons. With all this in mind, and given the prevalence of Nationalist movements in Romania otl even without this complete land loss humiliation, would be very strengthened in this scenario. Irridentist and Nationalist fervor would likely be sky high in parts of the population and it's not unlikely a weak King Michael II, without a Greater Romania economic boon, ends up being subverted by a rising Nationalist movement, whether Iron Guard or otherwise, who win elections and strongarm their way into control of the Romanian government. Ideologically, this kind of government would appear to be a perfect fit for this scenario's axis, but all of Romania's geostrategic goals align against the Axis. They have almost nothing to gain by fighting for Russia and Italy, and everything to gain by fighting against them. Just like how Communist Romania was in the Warsaw pact in otl, I'd imagine this Romania is a Maverick in the alliance, refusing to allow others to have bases, station officers, move supplies, or in any way assert control over or with the Romanian military, which themselves is rapidly expanding from purchases of French and Italian equipment, two nations they share immense cultural ties with and which exported a lot of arms in this time. Like Communist Romania, this Nationalist Romania would also necessarily have to vastly expand domestic industries, propping them up with whatever duct tape and glue could be found, closely aligning with the Serbs/Yugoslavs on these weapon developments. This could lead to a very surprisingly strong Romanian military, They'd have access to almost all of the experienced officers from WW1, the new officer corps they trained, and the excellent defensive and artillery training and tactics learned from there, as well as whatever solid offensive tactics let them seize Dobruja against the odds. With such close cultural ties to France and economic interests north in Galicia, it's also possible Romania establishes a secret alliance, much like they did with Germany and Italy before WW1 in the "Triple Alliance" to protect against any aggression in the meantime. This could include plans in case of war to Neutralize or force Hungary's hand, by Romania continuing it's Maverick streak and refusing to join a Russian Italian war against the Intermarium/Franco-German Alliance, and thusly cutting Hungary off from any ground support, leaving it vulnerable to collapse with a German and Polish border. If the Russian/Italian Axis try to press Romania with their superior military force across the Danube (a tough task with only 2 or 3 bridges on the whole length), Romania could then also activate her secret alliance with the Intermarium and seal Hungary's fate in the meantime, allowing, even if they fell, a very fervrent Nationalist Romanian free government and forces to retreat backwards and link up with Intermarium forces to continue the fight. TLDR: Romania got hella humiliated in this scenario, and there's not a shot in hell they don't try to go against the Russian/Italian Axis with their geostrategic position and very likely Nationalist sentiment

this is more cursed than any thing i have seen before, this makes me feel many emotions but mostly lust

Im invested in this world now. thanks to it being a better world than expected. like a richer British colonial holdings (probably), a Good German Democracy (and EU) and Good ol Russia allying with Turkey as well as a United Arabia

1:12 this screenshot alone makes me excited

Hell yeah, fresh PH content is the best way to wake up

This actually prevented a world war wow congrats PH viewers you actually achieve your objectives

video idea: what if everything went perfect for Josh Sullivan History💀

Gen Z Diplomacy hits different

Love these videos! Keep up the good work

Can you give an estimated casualty count on the Second Russo-Japanese War? Including the Sino-Japanese War, I'm estimating around 40 Million Casualties. That must've been brutal. Can't even imagine the amount of war crimes.

Enjoyable, but Russia would never support the Turkish against the Orthodox Greeks. Tsarist Russia was very religious, so instead they would team up with Greece against the remaining Turkish and grab more Anatolia between both.

This feels like something a hoi4 modded would make into a game, I love it

I doubt that Russia would support Turkey over Greece. One of their main objectives during the Great War was seizing Constantinople or keeping it out of Turkish hands at least.

Video Idea: What if everything went PERFECT for Poland?

I know you are already planning an 1848 video, but What If Every 1848 Revolution Succeded?

Still progressed better than the youtuber one. I have my doubts Mussolini still comes to power without being able to rail on Italy getting ripped off in the peace deal. Further I don't see Europeans letting Turkey have Constantinople back. Also seems kind of weird that the US Navy wouldn't intervene, or pressure Japan into accepting the peace deal, if Japan was losing so badly they'd lose their ability to repay debts to the US, especially with a Russia that looks like its on a conquering spree. Further I'm not sure we'd have a full on Great Depression in this world, rather than just a recession.

I definitely saw Greece losing Anatolia and most likely Thrace with possible occupation by Italy, but I'm surprised Russia didn't back Greece. I like the Franco-German-Polish alliance.

I really hope that in the next part he takes into account the massive losses Russia would’ve taken from the war with the Japanese (Probably 10s of millions dead)

What if everything went perfect for romanian principalities (1 year of asking i started asking in summer 2023)

So Italy gaining more territory than on our timeline didn't stop them of going radical nationalist. Sure, the economic recession would be unavoidable, but I thought the democratic institutions would survive. I wonder if "vittoria mutilada" would even be a thing in this scenario.

Meanwhile in Balkans: Croatia: Hey, dear neighbour, what are those guys doing over there? Serbia: I don't know, dear neighbour, some usual silly businesses of their own. Croatia: Well, thank God we ain't getting involved in that. Cheers! Serbia: Cheers!

Im german and this brought a tear to my eye. Truly the best timeline.

Please make another part!!! This is so intresting, harkens back to the days of countryballs on yt

Im 6 minutes in and im so surprised this is going better than our timeline

I love how at the beginning, greece who is due to their territorial gains surrounded by countries that absolutely despise them, either because of the territorial concessions or other differences, and therefore you made them say the famous simpsons quote: "* chuckles *, I'm in Danger!" Very nice detail!

Franco German Polish alliance is so wholesome 😊❤

Germany doesnt have to fight a 2 front war against the entire world all at once solo. This is preety much a wrap for who wins.

this has to be one of the best scenarios I've ever seen

See? possible history viewers should redraw every historical map and the world would be much more peaceful

1:14 I love reading this so much

I really enjoyed this and I'm looking forward to more eventually. What happens next will be really interesting but just Britain in isolation is unusual. This has created a lot of great stuff, but I especially love the stuff with Poland getting a place in the sun once again.

I dunno, i think this would be the PERFECT Hoi4 mod (had to propose it ok?), need someone to make this w some changes. Imagine fighting the strong Russians or helping the balkan wars

I feel like Japan would accept the lighter peace deal, since during WW2 one of the reasons they held on for so long was so that peace deal may be lighter on them. That being said, it also makes sense that Japan would continue fighting in the hopes of keeping more land (like parts of the trans-siberian railway)

Video idea:what if everything went PERFECT for britain?

He doesnt say there wont be a part 3, so guys, keep your notifications checked :D

An important lesson to learn, never let ph viewers decide anything in geopolitics. Especially peace deals.

Wholesome, Weimar Triangle existing in Inter-War period, and with Polish-German borders actually being on the Ethnic lines. Best scenario so far

I am guessing ww2 in this timeline is going to be Germany, France, Poland, Japan, Latvia, Finland, Sweden, and Ukraine Vs Russia, Italy, China, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Turkey, and Italy

Nice vid! But I have a question, why would Reactionary Russia under the lead of conservative Emperor support recent enemies, especially Turkey instead of Orthodox Greece?

This would make for an awesome multi-part alternate history novel series exploring this world through the eyes of its various inhabitants.

7:10 we all know who this man is...

All I can think is this would be a fun hoi4 Mod

Small thing: on the russia map, it's still 1914 germany

I have become genuinely invested in this alternate history scenario and would love to see more on it

I have been waiting for this

Scenario Idea: What if the Teutonic Order survived?

before we make germany democratic we have to consider the freikorps and the fact they almost overthrew the government the weimar system is bound to collapse in almost any scenario the republic itself prepared to reclaim their lost land there wont be pro french sentiment THAT soon

Hey Possible History! I have and idea for a video, What If Boris III of Bulgaria didn't die in 1943, joins the Allies and won WWII with the Allies!

Bro how does after 2 years PH's viewers are still on that "Ukraine independant no matter what !" larping

Can we get another part to this? This is really good.

1:12 "you're putting FRANCE in charge?!" Poland could not roast France more🙏😭

I know a certain someone is fuming rn because how dare you involve your community 😂

Oh come on we gave Italy more territory specifically to prevent Mussolini from coming back

I wonder who was the leader of bavaria hmmm

loving the new style of the videos, always having to add "would, could, or maybe" tends to get really boring

Wow, I sincerely doubt this would happen.

So in this timeline Japan essentially became north korea on steroids?

Could we have a What if Everything went perfect for United Kingdom 🇬🇧 pleasr

Day 10 asking for "What if Everything Went Perfect for Romania"

...And we STILL couldn't avoid WWII... Awesome.

idk if mussolini would come to power in italy that was given so much by after ww1 big part of why mussolini got to power is because the italians felt betrayed for not getting almost anything after the war

1:16 most true responses ever

Becoming danish... truly a horrible fate for Holstein

We NEED a part 3.

The first half of this began so well, but it couldn´t just stay peaceful. At the end the stage was quite threatening (Japan kind of reminds me of NKorea?).

Can you make a video about if everything went perfect for the ottomans? Like in general. If they had won most of the significant conquests.

Maybe for the next viewer scenario we can choose the collapse of the USSR. We get to pick which countries get their independence and the borders of said countries.

Video idea : we decide the outcome of every revolution in 1848

Finally someone showing Sweden with most of the real borders, Execept the territory of west sweden being independent and the strange red nation underneath us still exists.

You have to make a sequel to this scenario. It´s simply great :D

Bulgaria managed to turn things around.

part three!! I love this

Wooden-headed Tsar Nicky is the big bad? I mean..

I like how Germany came out of the war with more land than it started after the southern revolts.

We need a part 3 to this one !!!!!!

We need a HOI4 mod based off of these videos!!!
