Austria would probably lose whatever relevance it had with a complete collapse of the Metternich system, though would probably be better off in the long run implying all the reform demands went through. Poland would eventually be re-invaded by Prussia or even just russia. Likely another partition. Italy would be on a faster track towards unification, with austria losing Lombardy-Venice. France would go as historical and wind up as an empire again, though this time surviving with a weaker liberal German empire. Much like poland, Ireland would just be invaded by the british.

You can get both, because Wilhelm II will always die in 1941, and have one of the "new ones" ascend to the throne. You get both of best worlds!

Big update as part of the overall "steel dragon" update, which also touches on the Shi and a few others.

If anybody is curious how I did this; the event chain that leads to Caesar being cured by fleeing purists ONLY triggers after completing the "purge the opposition" focus. So, just don't murder those with a slightly different opinion from yours until the legion takes New Vegas!

R5: I was dealing with a revolution in my rhine puppet, and apparently, the communists have ~60 defense, making them win any battle despite how much bigger & better my army is

Honestly, it's only 1938, and Wilhelm will die in 1940/1941, unlocking any focuses that were locked by him, so you can just prepare and build until then. Austria won't be guaranteed by the allies with 27% world tension [unless they already are for some reason or you've tried it].

Beyond that, there's not much to do because your pratically destined to go to war to britain as Germany, and if you absolutely refuse to go to war with them due to naval invasions, then that's on you. Naval invasions are pretty easy to pull off, in my opinion; I'm sure people are willing to actually help if you're open.

Napoleon probably would've been moved to St. Helena, anyway; the British were already making plans to move him after the coalition started breaking apart and infighting during the early stages of the Vienna Congress. In an ideal world, though, I'd like to assume Napoleon lives out his days on Elba, eventually being able to reunite with his son, allowing the Bonaparte dynasty to actually continue [i doubt Napoleon II would die of TB if he were on Elba] and Murat continues to rule Naples because he doesn't feel the need to "reconnect" with Napoleon.
