How exactly would you realistically make this map of a Romanov Cold War happen?
Any ideas? Having Russia win World War I would be a good way to start, with the US Senate ratifying the Security Treaty with Britain and France and thus creating a peacetime defensive alliance of the three powers. If Italy stays democratic, then perhaps it can also eventually join this alliance, as could the Benelux countries. Maybe also have Britain and Japan eventually pursue a rapprochement while Russia eventually decides to act aggressively in Europe and/or the Far East? For instance, having Russia impose a puppet regime in China in a Russo-Japanese War 2.0 which Russia wins? And having Russia occupy eastern Germany after Germany attempts to remilitarize the Rhineland?
Anyway, what do you think about this?
