Description
Thanks to some better strategic and diplomatic choices late in the war, the Central Powers manage to win the Great War by 1918. This victory isn't absolute though, Germany lost a number of colonies and had to sort out the Austrian civil war, and were also unable to stop the Soviets from taking over Russia. The Ottomans also end up kicked out of the Caucasus, but otherwise have had few issues. Despite these setbacks, the defeated nations save for Britain and Russia lack the ability to challenge the old Central Powers in most respects. This has left the world barren of major conflict until the 1940's when the Soviets and a more stable China clashed against the Japanese Empire, triumphing for the most part. A diplomatic break between the two drove the Chinese towards the United States, who had helped supply them during the conflict. This era of conflict has not ceased though, with revolts breaking out in European colonies. Most notably is the independence of Indonesia, who through a long guerilla war managed to push the Netherlands out of Sumatra and Java. The decline of the European empires may allow the opportunity for other powers to grow, but only time will tell as to who...
