Description
The "war to end all wars" reached it's end five years ago, ushering in an era of peace and prosperity fo the German people, and has propelled the german empire to become one of the most powerful nations in the world. Since winning the war, the Germans have drastically increased their territory, coming to dominate Central Europe. Germany, with it's new territories and client states (The Netherlands, Belgium, Croatia, and Romania respectively) has become the dominant force in Continental Europe.

Unfortunately for the germans however, they were unable to hold most of the land given to them in the treaty of Brest-Livosk, as communist revolutions were already well underway in The Baltics, Belarus, and Ukraine. As a result of this, these nations defected to the Soviet Union before the germans were able to properly administer these territories. Finland was also taken over by communism and later joined the soviets.

While this was a setback for the germans, it was certainly a far better situation than what befell their biggest co-belligerents; Austria-Hungary and Ottoman Turkey. Austria-Hungary was tearing at the seams with ethnic conflict, which was only exasperated by the war. When it ended, the nation simply could not stay together and collapsed into a plethora of smaller states (Austria, Croatia, and Hungary respectively, as well as parts of Poland). Austria, as not banned from unifying with Germany as it was in OTL, was absorbed into the German Empire along with the Czech Republic, who Austria had not yet released from it's grasp. Germany annexed Poland in hopes of creating a buffer state, but that plan has not yet come to fruition and as of right now Poland is German territory, which doesn't sit well with the international community. The Ottoman Empire also collapsed, and its former territory was carved up between England and France. Both Nations occupy the fledgeling Republic of Turkey, until Atatürk's new provisional government can establish a foothold.

Bulgaria, although joining the war later, was still able to reap the rewards of winning the war, and have absorbed new territory that it occupied during the war.
