A thread for innocent amusement, or an occasionally witty satirical allegory. How WWII would have played out if we replaced all the leaders involved with Disco 1iCs, devs or grey eminences? Or any major historical event during or before it, but best not after, because later events are still a bit too sensitive by my judgement. Freely enjoy weaving a fun scenario.
Here's a rough outline of mine:
In 1939 Germany and Italy attack Turkey because it has a POB on a major trade route. Greece joins because Turkey ganked them 20 years ago. Poland helps Germany because the Polish leader and the German leader are friends on Discord. France, Britain, the USA and the USSR receive incriminating reports about Turkish ganks and decide to join against Turkey. The Netherlands accuse France of imperialism, declare war, and launch an invasion from Dutch Indochina into French Indochina to expand the Dutch Empire. For some reason Italy sends weapons to Turkey, which angers Germany, but nothing really happens. Suddenly, the USA declares war on Britain because Britain exploited them in the 18th century. A man from Liechtenstein is arrested in Germany, and as a response, Liechtenstein bans all German flights above their airspace. This somehow bankrupts German plane companies and the domino effect causes the collapse of Germany. Meanwhile, the USSR reaches 1st place in the world by production, including natural gas production, but somehow never produces a capital ship.
Austria-Hungary gets ganked by Montenegro for enjoying PvP a tad too much, angered by witnessing another gank, the Czechoslovakia declares war upon themselves and implodes within moments. Confused by the situation, the United States, Russia and France declare an alliance to conquer Belgium. Being a witty powertrader, Belgium drops their cargo hold full of french fries and destroys it in front of the three. The United States are devastated and ascend to total madness, subsequently causing them to surrender to Serbia, whilst France and Russia decided to only spawn camp Belgium from now on. At the same time Serbia wanted to stage a coup in Italy but accidentally send the announcement to Germany, who then sent the details about the coup to Luxembourg, where the lead devs reside. Through the power given to them by devs, Japan .beams to the United Serbian territories of America and hands them over to Greece so Greece has the means to repay their debt to Germany.
At the sidelines of all, the Ottoman Empire was playing Battleship chess with Romania, neither using their own but the United Kingdom's ships because SRPs are simply better.

Wrong, Ottoman Empire puts a battleship on land and rams it to Romanian shipyards.

THIS wouldn't be so funny if it wasn't so true! We Americans love our French fries.

You're missing the part where Switzerland drops a 5 A4 page essay on why it is perfectly "reasonable" for them to join the war against the Turks, to which the admemes tell them that they can not. This creates immense drama in the League of Nations (forums) which subsequently leads to its disbandment. Switzerland proceeds to purchase mercenaries (alts) with which to gank Turkey anyways.
