The history of this world is exactly the same as ours, up until June 28, 1914. On this day in our world, Gavrilo Princip assassinated the Archduke of Austria-Hungary, Franz Ferdinand. But in this world, The Archduke's limousine took a different route, and never encountered Princip, who died in a conflict with police one month later. Thus the Victorian-era balance of Europe held all through the 1910s without any incident. An odd civil war fought in both Germany and Russia finally resulted in the recreation of Poland in 1932.

  • The history of this world is exactly the same as ours, up until June 28, 1914. On this day in our world, Gavrilo Princip assassinated the Archduke of Austria-Hungary, Franz Ferdinand. But in this world, The Archduke's limousine took a different route, and never encountered Princip, who died in a conflict with police one month later. Thus the Victorian-era balance of Europe held all through the 1910s without any incident. However, in October 1924, the Irish Republican Army (IRA) set off a series of bombs in Dublin, Belfast, London, and York, thus sparked a war for Irish independence. The war finally ended in 1927 with the whole of Ireland being granted independence. This inspired ethnic nationalists across Europe to fight for their own freedom. In Spain, the Basques, Galicians, Valencians and Catalonians all fought the Spanish government viciously. The war was bloody and violent, and lasted from 1928 until 1933, ending in the ultimate collapse of Spain as a country, with five new nations rising from the ashes: the Kingdom of Castille-y-Leon, the Republic of Galicia, the Republic of Valencia, the Republic of Catalonia, and Euskal Herria (the Basque Country). Austria-Hungary also suffered a crippling civil war starting in 1932; though after witnessing the horrors of the Spanish War, they chose to come sue for peace and help the Yugoslavs to create the Republic of Yugoslavia in 1934 and granting Hungary significantly higher autonomy. An odd civil war fought in both Germany and Russia finally resulted in the recreation of Poland in 1932.
