After the Trenches [Post WW1 - WW2 Nation Roleplay]

[CykaShotgun]

The year is 1920, only 2 years after the Great War that shattered Europe ended. The victors of the war, the Allies, decided the fate of the Central Powers at the Treaty of Versailles. They ended up partitioned, broken up, and humiliated, their populaces devoid of hope, and their countries in ruin. The ways of war had forever changed, as the Great War dictated new strategies, weapons, and methods of destruction. A new organization, the League of Nations, was set up by the victors, with the hope that it would create world peace and prevent another Great War. But could it? The fate of the world is at stake.

The point of this roleplay is to explore how a world recovering from the First World War would look like, act like, and play out. Alternate historical paths could be explored, and could culminate in a radically different WW2, or no Second World War.

Expectations:
-Mostly historical roleplaying, with little ahistorical detours to change the timeline from ours.
-One-liners are allowed, though paragraphs are much more appreciated.
-I expect to start when we have players for the US, UK, France, Weimar Republic, both sides of the Russian Civil War, and Italy, Greece, Turkey, and Japan.
-Other nations are welcomed to hop on as the roleplay progresses.
-Fictional nations are allowed, as long as they were formed by the Treaty of Versailles.

This is my first attempt at making a roleplay on this site, so please give feedback and constructive criticism!

So will this be turn based or a post as you please roleplay?

 

[CykaShotgun]

It will be a post as you please roleplay.

 

[Pat]

It will be a post as you please roleplay.

I'll reserve and play as the United States if this ever takes off I guess.

 

[CykaShotgun]

Edited IC with more info.

 

[Master Hand]

Would this include/start with the Paris Peace Conference?

It starts on January 1st, 1920, so it begins during the aftermath of the Paris Peace Conference.

 

[Master Hand]

Actually, maybe not. And its not because its after the conference or anything, just busy. Wish you luck on this however.

 

[Winter_Wolf]

I'd be interested, possibly playing as the IRA (or Dáil Eirenn might be the political aspect? I can't remember right now). Or perhaps having an Intermarium style country wedged between Germany and France made up of the Low Countries + Alsace/Lorraine created by Versailles.

 

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

Greece please!

 

[Warlord Tom]

Bulgaria, if it's not too late

 

[CykaShotgun]

If enough countries hop in, I'll create a CS page!

 

[CabalAnomicPotato]

Bolsheviks

 

[Master Hand]

Actually, I think I might go for Japan. Could even go for an actually beneficial Pan-Asianism approach.

 

[MorgathosTheRussian]

I want to guide White Russia, and establish a Russian Republic. I have grudges to settle.
