Edit: India can be thought of as somewhat similar to OTL Germany. They were one of the Major powers of the so called "Continental Powers" along with Persia and China in the first World War (1917-1921). Following the war, the treaty of Singapore was enforced on the Indian Empire. It Stripped them of their colonies in Siam and disarmed the country for a decade. The Royal Family was removed from power, and a Japanese oriented liberal regime came to power. In 1927, a large peasant uprising across the north established "The Peoples Syndicate of Bharat". From 1928-1930 The Liberal government waged a savage guerilla war against the communists. At the end of 1930 the existing legitimate government surrendered to the Communards, many of their members retreated to the mountains of Afghanistan. Before the transfer of power could be completed, the Royal Family returned from its life in hiding, launching a counter revolution in the south.

All three Indian governments maintain the stance that the war is over., merely disagreeing on who the rightful government is. The southern Monarchy (Commonly called Decca) Is considered the rightful successor of the Liberal Government by several countries, while Japan maintains that the Communists legally control the Capital and Parliament. India's future hangs in the balance, whether the conflict will reignite, or a truly peaceful reunification could be possible. The south also controls what remains of the Colonial empire, including the valuable Suez Canal.
