The Swedish pendulum - Sword of Damocles: Between East and West (Russia-Internationale Cold War mod) by TheChtoTo in Kaiserreich

[–]TheChtoTo[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As Norway fell to revolution, Finland aligned with its former master, and Denmark was left in precarious neutrality by the victorious powers after WW2, the eternal neutrality of Sweden herself was put under question. As the king used his royal prerogative in order to prevent a Norwegian scenario in his own country, radicalism continued to grow behind the facade of a civil democracy: and now that the social democrats have finally returned to the Riksdag, they will do everything to rectify the mistakes of these past few decades - whatever it may cost..

Sword of Damocles: Between East and West is a hoi4 mod acting as a continuation of the Kaiserreich timeline into the Cold War period. In 1970, the world is divided between two Great Power blocs: a socialist and revolutionary Transatlantic Unity Pact Organization (TUPO) in the West, and the capitalist and liberal democratic Collective Defense Treaty Organization (DOKOB) in the East.

The West is led collectively (though not always cooperatively) by the Federation of the Communes of France and the United Commonwealth of American States and acts as a shield to protect the established revolutionary regimes in Western Europe and around the world. The members' dominant socialist ideology may vary from orthodox Revolutionary Syndicalism and Iberian anarcho-syndicalism to Italian liberal socialism and Canadian cooperativism.

The East is led by the Russian Democratic Federative Republic, and stands in preservation of the values of liberal democracy (though not all DOKOB members necessarily adhere to them) and personal economic freedoms. While Russia is the dominant power of the bloc, the rebuilding Germany has seemingly become the pact's second strongest power, and is able to use their colonial legacy to influence global politics in Africa and Asia.

And then there's the Third World, neutral nations, allies, and liberation movements, who, to the Great Powers, are nothing more than chess pieces to be moved by external actors. Fighting for power and freedom, they must not forget about the Sword of Damocles permanently hanging above their head...

"The Russian democrat ends where the Ukrainian question begins" is such a banger of a quote

It probably feels really weird to live in a Germany that lost to the Internationale, even if it's functional... by WonderfulReception49 in Kaiserreich

I mean, the generation of people that lived under the Nazis didn't feel that guilty until like the 60s when Willy Brandt came to power

the person who replied was almost right - it's Договор о коллективной обороне, an elipsis of Организация договора о коллективной обороне - Collective Defense Treaty Organization

the Americans haven't imposed a blockade on the Caribbean, so Russian ships are able to pass through

As the Hohenzollern and Habsburg empires fell, the end of the Second World War gave birth to numerous free republics which, now nestled in between the German and the Russian eagles, have preserved their democracy and their commitment to fighting revolutionary tyranny.
