What if France Won the Franco-Prussian War? 

Thanks a lot! I took time to record each sentence individually so I don't need to grasp air every 2 seconds

I dont wanna be that person but i Have made a video on that specific scenario.

Thanks a lot for the support! I may make a scenario like what if Germany turned communist or something I don't really see anything changing if the Soviets don't come to power in Russia as I see it possible that a far right regime will take power sooner or later which would essentially be the same thing as the USSR

@@justagreekhistorian There would be no industrialisation and it depends where is your point of divergence.

It would. Due to population changes France was laughably outmatched by that time against Germany. Even with Prussia on its own its industry and fighting age population would by the new Great War be significantly larger than France. And France would never fix the systemic issues that lead its army to massively underperform in 1871

Sure! I will make sure to schedule it!

Uncool

Lou-ksem-bourghhhhh

Thanks a lot! I have this tendency to improve anything people tell me to improve and do that as quickly as possible, so I tried my hardest to improve the quality as much as I can while not needing to push pack the schedule too far As for a video centered on Greece, I have planned on that and should be coming out in few vids!

Thanks! I try to pick scenarios that can be altered in a realistic way while also keeping the video as interesting as possible!

Sounds a bit extreme so maybe not but thanks for the support and the suggestion!

Oops Thanks for the correct mate

Sounds interesting, I will schedule it for sure!

Thanks for the support! This scenario may sound interesting but in the long term nothing would change really so not sure if I will be making that

@@justagreekhistorian I disagree. A lot of African countries saw Ethiopia as the symbol of freedom and adopted it's flag colors onto theirs. If Italy won, that reputation would be ruined. Also Italians wouldn't be seen as a militarily incompetent nations. And it MIGHT possibly get all the lands demanded during the first world war. Which wouldn't leave them hostile to other allied nations. Just my two cents though.

@@PowerSimplified1871 Oh sorry, I thought you meant the Italian attempt during WW2, like if they got recognition for it, but yeah I may see if I can cover it, albeit it will be a smaller video

lel that's just the quality of the video rendered weirdly, although I kinda like it too

oh absolutely! My next video will be on what if... haha no spoilers yet but it will be in the 11th century

Hey! Thanks for the support and your scenario idea sounds interesting I will add it to the schedule for future videos

It would funnily enough probably lead to German unification under Prussia. At the time Prussia was challenging Frankfurt with the Erfurt Treaty, an alternative to the Frankfurt lead German empire lead by Prussia with a less liberal constitution. The minor states even joined up initially to be protected from pro democratic revolutions. Prussia only backed down when Austria and Russia opposed it. With Austria, prussias and russias ebemy/rival accepting it, Russia would probably throw its full weight behind Erfurt, turning it into an earlier brothers war. That one could either only involve Prussia and Austria with Russia threatening to join on Prussia’s side if anyone else intervenes or Russia joining fully on Prussia’s side. Either way , Austria needed hundreds of thousands of Russian troops to survive the Hungarian revolution that happened during this time. With Russia hostile to them and Prussia actively fighting them I don’t see AH surviving.

I actually think he’s right with that. Prussia at the time of the Great War was still two thirds of the German population and even without unification because of its much larger degree of industrialization could spare more of its people then the southern states. The imperial German army also needed to compromise with the states and didn’t get the funding that it would have gotten relative to the total budget if it remained Prussia (however the funding would still be lower just because your adding about 25% of the industry).

Yeah I am still not sure about Austria's neutrality but either way, I expect Britain to win regardless really The Germans performed very well in our timeline and the added strength of Italy and Britain will only make them stronger, albeit that the German army is much more disunited than in our timeline

haha hmm where could I be from?

No that's how I pronounce Luxembourg in general In Greek it's called Λουξεμβούργο (Louxembourgho) and the G is really harsh and it just stuck with me in English too lol

Thanks man!

hahaha thanks a lot for the support Videntis! Your channel is awesome, I have been watching it since the video on what if Alexander the Great lived longer I would be interested in a collab too! If you want, we can talk over discord and discuss about it, my username is andrewxvi

Good idea, I will have to push it back in the schedule as I am already writing the script for next video but yeah this is definitely coming
