this is the most hoi4 mp scenario ever

great scenario but i doubt Germany would leave only 150.000 men. Germany could mobilise massive amounts of men and the furthest they would go was probably a 2 to 1 disadvantage. Still, great video

Adding onto my previous comment, a germany that abandons the schliefen plan would certainly set their focus on dealing with Russia, the added german manpower and material on the eastern front would help prevent the huge setbacks the Austrians would have faced and the central powers would have had manpower parity or even superiority against the Russians considering how they performed against the Russians in our time line with far less troops and a much weaker austria, the war on the east would be over by 1916 or early 1917 with the central powers occupying Belarus, the Baltic states, poland,, much of Ukraine, Azerbaijan and Georgia The central powers would have the initiative for essentially the entire war, facing no serious setbacks, this could prevent the Italians or Romanians to remain neutral or potentially even join the central powers when it became clear that they were going to win the war

This is genuinely so well edited! Nice job!

My third and final comment Britain enacting a blockade on germany would be an act of war, and without the invasion of Belgium the war would not at all be popular with the public, the British instead would heavily finance/supply the Russians and French but this ultimately wouldn't do much to change the outcome of the war. The British in 1915 or 1916 after serious gains on the eastern front would threaten the central powers with war if they don't agree to the peace terms (likely a free polish state, a Lithuanian state, a small byelorussian state and a small western ukranian state) and pulling all troops out of Russian territory Austria would accept this deal but germany likely wouldn't, either way germany would still be thr favorites to win the war The central powers can now transfer those troops from the east to the west much earlier than in our time line, this would also make exploiting eastern territories such as Ukraine for food much easier The germans with the heavily increased manpower on the western front has multiple options, 1. Just continue manning the French border and make a white peace with the entente as no side would be able to make considerable gains 2. A late schleifen plan but with far more troops (they would be able to conquer all of Belgium and far more of Northern France than in our time line, this would also force the French troops along the border of esleß lothringen to either retreat or potentially be encircled, they would likely pick the first option) I still doubt the germans would be able to occupy Paris but with then controlling all of Belgium and far more of northern France especially the industrial regions and multiple port cities, this could force the French to make peace

Both sides would not be able to make large gains on the western front, elseß lothringen and the French border region of lorraine were heavily fortified. Also 150,000 men on the western front is just ridiculous,the central powers managed to have 250,000 - 2.5 million men on multiple different fronts during the great war, the germans would easily be able to man their French border with likely 700,000 - 1.5 million men and that combined with the fortifications would halt any French advance into germany

Most realistic Althist HOI4 scenario

Why would denmark declare war on germany for north schleswig? Even in OTL denmark didn't wan't north schleswig, the Entente forced denmark to take the land.

Germans are the largest ethnic group in the US, so if Germany didn't do anything ungentlemanly, the US might have come to the Kaiser's rescue.

Brother france cant make any gains on a chokepoint with trench warfare

This is the what if Germany had oil in ww2 equivalent of the ww1 Germany couldnt have won.
