What if?

What if?
>Zimmerman Telegram wasn't sent
USA didn't join WW1
>Austrungary Gives Italy new Territories
Italy joined the central Powers

Would it end in a stalemate?

I mean, without Italy, there is no Vittorio-Veneto and the collapse of Austria Hungary. And without the collapse of A-H, Germany has no real urgency to seek a surrender in the autumn of 1918, especially when there aren't a few million fresh American soliders across the border preparing a spring offensive.

Um, AH would have collapsed even if they won

>implying the British wouldn't find some other nefarious way to pull America into war

Not even close.

>And without the collapse of A-H, Germany has no real urgency to seek a surrender in the autumn of 1918
the blockade

Polish and Ukrainian wheat go a long way to alleviate that.

Don't you understand that back then, America loathed the British?
Ntm the insane amount of German immigrants America had

>He doesn't know about the Greek front

That the collapse of the empire was inevitable even without war is a meme propagated by the Entente and by various nationalist groups. Nationalism wasn't as big of a problem in Austria-Hungary as many people believe, and if it became a critical problem the country would just undergo federalization (basically the Ausgleich on steroids). The idea the war isn't what caused the breakup is completely unfeasible.

you forgot to put 4 kangz Diocletian

The USA and British Empire were destined to be friends since the former's conception. Both nations are founded on Anglo-Saxon principles of common law, intense individuality, and a strong base of liberalism. The USA would eventually have allied with Britain, they are just too culturally intertwined. Even the large first wave Irish demographic in the USA couldn't make the USA side with the Boers and that is when Britain was clearly the bad guys. The large German demographic were even less potent in WWI due to the German rape of Belgium and the atrocities they committed meaning Germany was less popular and often despised especially if you view WWI as democratic nations against Germany traditionalist monarchies, the USA clearly favoring the former.

>Being this stupid
I wouldn't be surprised if you think the Ottoman empire would survive if they had won the war

>>Forgetting the war of 1812

What I meant by that is that the British tried to force American troops to fight against Napoleon before, the plan started the war of 1812.

>the USA would eventually have allied with Britain, they are just too culturally intertwined.

Then why didn't the USA want to fight against Napoleon?

>What about the Greek Front?

Several Lusitania's get arranged and the USA enters anyway.

Woodrow knew America needed to be involved in European warfare in a way that the "founding fathers" could never understand in their limited understanding of the world.

I don't think a more accurate picture has ever been posted in Veeky Forums

What? There is more than one Luisitania?

No. I'm saying that more planted excuses would be staged to justify getting involved, and rightfully so.

>muh excuses

Reminder that unlike Hitler, the Kaiser never wanted America to be involved.

You are misunderstanding him, he's saying the US would have found some reason, any reason, to enter the war anyways.

You are right that the Kaiser and the military really, really did not want the US to enter the war but that doesn't matter.

>What if they joos didn't do a false flag to get america involved in war

gee, we're literally talking about a world without joos

>answer is a non-argument

redditor or GROSSGERMANIAutist

What the fuck are you even talking about

Than why the fucj did they enter in the very last year?

I don't see how you could pretend A-H would survive unless you also erase the entire Serbian crisis that started the war in the first place.

Poincaré assured Russia of France's assistance in case of war. He thus bears responsibility since Russia acted more boldly knowing that France would have their backs.

THIS!

>implying Austria was

austria was the real master mind so ofc they didnt

So who wins?

The Jews

Yes, Austria didn't try to destroy the Austrungarian empire.

To let the Europeans totally exhaust and bankrupt themselves while simultaneously being able to have a strong hand in shaping the peace process.

Germany, but it wouldn't be a decisive victory because Britain was safe from invasion.

he is masturbating to ideas of marines defending europe from le ebil french.

The region did

Italy had just gotten wrecked by a bunch of literal African niggers. The reason they weren't promised territory is because they had nothing to offer militarily.

Because winners get seats at the negotiation table. America's elite funded a lot of the war and had a vested interest in dictating terms of how things ended up.

By that dumb logic, that would mean that America would join the central powers if Germany was winning.

Germany would have back France if it wasn't for the U.S.

And?

While that certainly wasn't where most of the investment in the watr from America was going, it was still there. The smart bet was on Germany losing though. But if somehow Germany scored decisive win after decisive win and it looked like it was a sure thing for Kraut victory, what do you think would happen?

The us would have remained neutral,
And Germany would have captured Paris.
