Description

Lore:
In 1945, the Potsdam Conference gathered the winners of the war (Truman, Stalin, Churchill and Rakotomalala). During the conference, they determined the division of Germany and how the areas would be shared: Russia gains Eastern Germany, Britain the Northwest, USA the West, France the Southwest and Madagascar the Southeast. Like the country, the capital city of Berlin would be divided in 5 sectors as well.
On the continental scale, we can see three worlds: Eastern Europe is on Soviet hands, Western Europe is American-aligned and Southern Europe belongs to Madagascar.
Despite being conquered by Soviet Union in 1940, the Baltic States were given independence and signed a treaty of neutrality, allowing them freedom in exchange of not being a threat to Soviet Union (being an ally of America, etc.). This was obtained due to a strong resistance to Soviet control in the Baltic States, risking to be an opposition's strength against the State.
The most surprising is how an African power managed to negociate and gained many countries as a reward: Madagascar controls Italy, Greece, Yugoslavia, Albania, Bulgaria, Austria and Bavaria. But another project is also on the tracks: in order to solve the "Jewish question", Madagascar decided to draw the borders of a future Jewish state, situating on Bavaria, Austria and Italy. As a compensation for crimes against Jews, Madagascar drew this territory in order to minimize expulsions (50.000 - 100.000 expulsions) and to install surviving Jews, as well as the Jewish community established in Africa. Many countries see this as a "terrible mistake" to establish a Jewish state on the ashes of "antisemite territories". But for Madagascar, it is also a move to confront antisemites to their "fear" and an answer to the Axis' treatment of this population.
