Most of the Anglosphere actually didn't change the outcome of the war. The UK helped massively with the naval blockade and economic support, but that's all.

@@zazr83 What? Britain and its Dominions have estimated casualties of 900.000, to compare this, France had 1.350.000 estimated casualties. Brititsh and Canadian Troops were especially at the start of the war considered, one of the best performing ones. So Britain + Dominions were almost as engaged as France on the ground. The naval blockade did break Germany in the end, because they lacked vital ressources. Britian was the strongest financial power, paying for American Arms, Germany now would be able to buy in this timeline. Britains Air force was vital. Britain invented tanks. Britain kept the Germany Navy in Check, the German navy could have challenged the French one, although this would have been close. US troops were the ones holding the lines in the final German offensive. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY. Germany kicked Russia out of the war, even with Great Britain etc. in the war. Russia collapsed, and you are telling me that owning a bit of underdeveloped land in Asia would have changed all that?

In the video the war ended in 1917 but the timeline towards the end was a bit unclear so sorry for the confusion Secondly, though Japan may have been on the Central Powers, their contribution was next to zero. Sure, they may have occupied Korea and a little bit of Manchuria but I doubt that would affect the Russian war effort Now, in this timeline, Germany attempts to first knockout Russia and then focus on the "weaker" French Of course, since the majority of the German army was on the Eastern Front, the French would have an easier time pushing through the border and into the Rhineland. A counter-argument can be made that the fortifications were basically impossible to break through and though I do agree with that, I still think France would find some way around it - likely forcing Belgium to break neutrality and join the Entente and pull a reversed-Schlieffen Plan. The British, seeing this move, wouldn't join the Central Powers but would be disappointed at the Entente, which would render them completely neutral. In the video, it is shown the Germany makes similar progress as it did in our timeline but that was a mistake on my end. I originally wanted to show them reaching near the gates of Kyiv but that part of the script ended up shorter than excepted and the video turned out the way it did So, as a result of the French capturing the Rhineland completely by late 1916, soon German war capabilities would slowly start to collapse, and the Russians would see major gains which would boost troop moral. Thus, the revolutions are avoided and Russia remains an Empire. That's really the explanation I could give, and before I close off, I don't completely reject that the Central Powers would win. Obviously, there are many possibilities, from the French deciding that it's not worth to force Belgium into the Entente, to Britain threatening the Entente after the French push through Belgium to a lot of over possibilities. Any of these would obviously lead with the Central Powers victory, but it's really difficult to say for sure really. I hope this explains better my though process with the scenario and why I think this outcome - though not fully - is somewhat realistic and is not just fantasy

@@munchkin7508 That's exactly why I said "most of the Anglosphere" and then said that the Brits helped massively. And no, the French actually were already starting to push the Germans when the Americans came. Also, Russia, in this video, would've been ready for this war quicker as they wouldn't had to rebuild their army. Plus Russia actually could've been able to basically knock out the Austro-Hungarians extremely quickly had they focused their attack on them. This, without their full army ready (as it should've been fully operational in 1917 irl). So yeah, with luck and poor decisions from the Central powers, it's not so insane to say that this war would've been winnable for the Entente had the Russians win the Russo-Japanese war.

​@zazr83 Britain had almost as many troops in France as France, the second biggest force in the balkans after Serbia and easily the biggest force in the middle east, over 3× what Russia had, the next closest force and the blockade is what beat Germany. Not to mention Britain did the majority of the work capturing German colonies. Britain carried ww1

The map frames were lower than I initially expected, I wanted to show the Germans reaching the gates of Kyiv but I didn't get the chance to do that Regardless, I do still the Russians would win due to the Germans being in constant annoyance by the French and would have to constantly redirect troops to the western front

​@@justagreekhistorian France wodunt be a problem if anything they were Like Austria for allies second best yes but only because others Like Russians were around.I mean did you forgot french starting uniforms.Germanies economy wodunt chrash because there wodunt be a British blokade and without invasion of Belgium and UK other states like USA wodunt help Russia or France as much.Also if anything thanks to early russian loss of Ukraine it woud mean more hunger for Russians and earlier revolution (just not communist under Lenin because Germany wodunt allow his departue from Swz.Simply put this scenario makes biggest leap of logic I have ever seen

@@justagreekhistoriani think they could still don’t see why they wouldn't have a Bolshevik revolution

There’s a simple reason, Russia wouldn’t have been embarrassed by a non-western nation. It wouldn’t be as unstable internally from the loss and would likely be able to muster up more internal forces.

​@@justagreekhistorianLosing the war was a massive wakeup call for Russia. It was thanks to losing against Japan that they even did as well as they did against Germany, Austria and the ottomans...

Hey! Thanks a lot for the support mate

if it never became socialist the germans would've won ww2 meaning a worse war

Yeah I would have though the Franco-Russian faction would win too

With what it is now, yeah I agree but ofc the US isn't gonna let 1 faction have total victory and would need to side with the faction loosing with Tsar Francus the great alliance it's possible the US is gonna intervine and side with British Panzer Blockade

@@kurtdustinbajar713 I think strategically it makes much more sense for USA to cut their loses and steal as much of British possessions as they can, after all either way Russia will be an issue in the future so it only makes sense to want to strengthen oneself too.

Indeed it is haha

That was my first video xd but I do plan to make a part 2 sooner or later

@@justagreekhistorian SWEET! THANKS ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Indeed!

Britain winning the war of 1812 is a planned scenario (though likely not going to annex all of the US) and so is Britain keeping Oregon Bulgaria winning the second Balkan war isn't really feasible especially when the Turks and the Romanians got involved, but I'd likely to attempt that one Lastly, Russia winning the Crimean War also sounds interesting, I'd probably plan it for the later scenarios Thanks for the suggestions mate!

Me too. :)

Ancient Greece already had an Empire across the Mediterranean lmao (Also the Byzantine Empire is literally the same as the Roman Empire)

@justagreekhistorian wait really? I was aware they had colonies and outposts, but did they like, go full rome? I had this idea of the ancient Greeks taking over Italy Spain and discovering Britain, which they called tin land, I think, and starting an earlier era of the European development. Oh well. Also I mentioned the byzantines cause I didn't want to create confusion, I remembered hearing the byzantines became more focused on their greek identity over time. Also I do know the byzantines are romans. Why are they called the byzantines?

@@Gre-Chaos They were never called Byzantines, they had always called themselves the Eastern Roman Empire The term Byzantine came later to try to delegitimize Byzantium's claim to Rome Nowadays it used for convenience as saying Eastern Roman Empire is a mouthful As for Ancient Greece, they didn't go full Rome as they were naval centric and not so much military centric As such, it is really hard to construct a timeline where the Greeks form an empire without fundamentally changing the Greeks They had colonies all over the Mediterranean but that's really about it

@justagreekhistorian OK gotcha. Thanks for the information, and sorry for the trouble

Sure! What scenario would you like to see?

forgot about italy depending on when italy joins: -before the UK: then its a central powers victory. Italy was as good as the austrians, and i doubt the UK would join in this case, as the war would be balanced. -after the UK: maybe russian dont get as screwed in the peace deal, Austrians and russians are obligated to give autonomy to their minorities, but russia definitely loses it's grip over korea (maybe france and italy gets a some referendums on disputed territories like alsarce and istria)

Ye I am aware of Finnish autonomy pre-WW1 - though they were not in a personal union In the video I just mentioned it to add time and it just went well with the flow of that part

I was legit so confused who had the Kuril islands so I just gave up and ignored them lmao Also yes, Britain would likely support the Axis mainly because German crimes would still not have come to light, and also if they support the Russians now, Russia would be at the perfect position to dominate the world

Thanks a lot mate

That'd be fun to explore Thanks for the suggestion

@@justagreekhistorian np

Oh yeah right... I don't know how I missed

As I said, if this video reaches 3K likes then maybe I'd consider it

I've mentioned in this in previous comments but basically let me explain First, Russia wins WW1 due to the Germans constantly having to send troops over in the west Now, the one thing that was kinda odd and looking back at it seems kinda impossible is the fact that France just pushed through the fortifications with no problem Well that was a bit unrealistic but you can always say that France forces Belgium to join the Entente and does a reversed Schlieffen plan. we assume that does happen, the Rhineland would be left pretty under-defended and when the French eventually do take over the region, German war capabilities would take a massive hit which would eventually lead to their downfall As for Czar Nicholas, I don't know what you mean exactly by "completely different" Sure, he was a really paranoid leader and a hungry for power dictator but I do think he would federalize the country regardless Finland was already autonomous and the Poles and the Armenians really demanded autonomy, he would have to eventually agree to it Lastly, France staying an ally of Russia is just the logical thing to do Though they wouldn't be enthusiastic about it, they'd have to out of convenience. Think about it, France now holds the whole of the west bank of the Rhine The British would hate them as they were also growing really powerful. The Germans would hate them as they would want to recover their loses As such, the only country France could possibly see an alliance with is Russia I hope this answers your questions and remember, this scenario is meant to be less realistic and more of the fun of it

@@justagreekhistorian Thank you for responding but if France tries to exploit Belgium wouldn’t Britain try to intervene to secure Belgian neutrality and to weaken a Russian which in this world is significantly stronger and most importantly appears a lot stronger not having been humiliated. So it would be fairly likely you’d see some sort of British intervention to stop Russia and secure Belgium.

@@kylezdancewicz7346 Well, even if Britain doesn't join the Entente I do still see them being close to them at least before the war's end If France does force Belgium to break neutrality then Britain would be disappointed and would move closer to Germany but I doubt they'd actually do anything apart from diplomatically

Yeah that's also a possibility, however since this scenario was meant to be more Russian centric (just cuz I wanted to do that lmao) I decided to make the French push through the German fortification, providing a serious threat to the Rhineland and by extension German war capabilities

Ευχαριστώ πολύ μπρο

I see the point being made here, but like a central power's victory scenario seems kinda boring Like I feel like I can't really add more than what has already been added already So I opted for the non realistic path

Yep. 0-0 as of now

@@Paul2kdj69 bro did u just see that chance by Ronaldo He's been so shit this whole game

@@Paul2kdj69 😮‍💨😮‍💨 extra time again

@@lunalingo4461 fr he missed so many chances in the entire game. Portugal has been @ss recently with them losing 2-0 to Georgia and currently being tied 0-0 with Slovenia. I doubt they will take it home

@@Paul2kdj69 it's just like England man Drawing to Slovenia, boring ass game that was Barely skimmed a win against Slovakia. Doubt they are gonna win against Switzerland.

Yeah I don't know either 💀

I wanted to keep it Asia focused, but figured that I would have to figure out what's going in China which was just too much so I decided to shift it a bit to Europe, but still it was more Asiatic centered than most of my other scenarios lel Also, Russia wasn't stronger in the video, the great powers just thought they were Regardless, an Entente victory imo is still happening so it won't really change much Anyways, thanks for the constructive criticism, it is really refreshing seeing real points instead of just "video bad booo"

Yeah I understand the concern that the French wouldn't be able to push through the fortifications (I really didn't do the research for that part, it was kinda rushed) Now if I were to justify that, I would say that the French would likely force Belgium to join the Entente and push through there, which would disappoint the British but I doubt they'd still join the Central Powers With the Rhineland being threatened, and the Germans having to constantly redirect forces to the Western front, I do still see Russia still managing to hold out the frontline long term
