The Sun Shining on the World
World War II ended in the Allies victory.
The end of the largest conflict on the world brought the light of peace, and a shadow of a chilling war. Nazism was defeated and a new era was born.
But what if the opposite occurred?
In this mod, you can play in a timeline where GEACPS and the Axis defeated the Allied Nations, creating a world with new peace and chaos. The change begins in 1936 when Japan and the Republic of China signed a non-aggression pact. The game begins in 1950. Nuclear Weapons are still under development and countries are forced to use tactical weaponry instead. The defeated United States has fallen into a civil war due to the racial tensions as the torch of liberty dwindles away. While the United Kingdom was able to protect the British isles, it lost India, its largest jewel, and has lost its influence in the international stage. Meanwhile, Japan, the victor of the war has suffered immensely as their ambitious Greater Eastern Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere has become a burden on them as its economy stagnates. While the Germans have achieved its Lebensraum, the great giant’s weight is supported only by its dictator, Hitler as the smell of rot can be noticed.
The country that has risen amongst the suffering victors is Italy. It has ousted its former ally and is expanding its ambitions to become a world power.
Similar to Italy, China- reborn into a Federal Republic- has grown its power day by day as it receives support from the Germans.
It has been a few years since the second and last war, what future does this world hold?
