I really like this AH.com Wikibox TL about a world with a surviving Franz Ferdinand:

This TL even has a map of the present-day World Democracy Index:


democracyindex-png.600781


Classification definition :

Full democracy (level 9, darker green) -
Political debates and citizens' representations are guaranteed by the insitutitions, as well as the separation of powers, freedom of speech, information. Gender and race equalities are enforced. For example, United States.
Full democracy (level 8, dark green) - Same as above, but limited issues arise, such as bureaucracy, reunion limited corruption and some restrictions on equality and media representation. For example, China.
Flawed democracy (level 7, green) - Overall good democracies but corruption is more stressed, as well as some media freedom infringement and minor suppression of political critics. Underdeveloped political culture, low levels of participation in politics, civic representation and other issues can be issues. For example, Germany.
Flawed democracy (level 6, light green) - Same as above, but more widespread : corruption is endemic, electoral fraud is widespread, political violence and suppression of the media and some political parties are suppressed. For example, United Kingdom.
Hybrid regime (level 5, yellow) - Electoral fraud, political violence, corruption are widespread ; even if the institutions guarantee check and balances, they also tend to discriminate and limit freedom of speech, media or enforce discrimination against certain populations. For example, Italy.
Hybrid regime (level 4, orange) - Democracy is nothing but in name. The institutions are officially democracies and guarantee some political debate, but rule of law and pressure against the opposition avoid any true democratic spirit. For example, Mexico.
Authoritarian regime (level 3, dark orange) - "Light" dictatorship, the basic rule of law and prior institutions are maintained, but political repression, suppression of opposition and media are enforced. For example, France.
Authoritarian regime (level 2, crimson red) - Dictatorship. All individual freedoms are repressed, as well as all opposition, but return to democracy is an option. For example, Angola.
Authoritarian regime (level 1, red) - Regime that tend to be considered "totalitarian". For example, Bharatavarsha.

PS : of course, the Canadian Arctic Islands aren't a dictatorship, it's a bug when converting the file :)
 
How could I forget this TL? :



It's about German Kaiser Wilhelm II dying young and a Great European War which Germany wins occurring several years before schedule, I think.
 
I really like this AH.com Wikibox TL about a world with a surviving Franz Ferdinand:


Does anyone know of any good alternate TLs with a distant PoD but which are just as much (or almost as much) of a monarchy-screw as our TL is? For instance, the Franz Ferdinand Survives TL above is certainly NOT a monarchy-screw by any means, especially in comparison to real life:

Somebody mentioned this here -

I read it,it would be good if author do not decided to made long WW2,which with powerpuff Tsar Russia was impossible - they would crush Hitler before he taken Czech,and Japan alone would not try anything.

But,author want long war,so Hitler ayyacked Poland in 1940 and take part of Russia,Japan sunk not only USA fleet in Pearl.but before that russian fleet in Port Arthur.And keep winning,till they lost like in OTL - battle of Philippines was basically the same.

I am from Poland,and what author to us is sily - we have Roman Dmowski as leader,and Poland was as fucked economically and military as in OTL under Piłsudzki,who fucked both economy and miitary.
When Dmowski Poland would deal with Hitler on its own in 1938 without Russia help.
 
Death by Telefon and Once Upon a Time in Imperial Russia are ATL stories set in world where WWI, and possibly Russo-Japanese war as well, were avoided, with author using the timeline as a backdrop for spy thriller (copied the Charles Bronson movie) and murder mystery. Monarchies around the world are much more prevalent due to no World Wars.

Do any countries, such as France, that are republics in the early 20th century ever see a return to monarchy in either of these two TLs?
 
I don't know, the author is rather sparing with details that don't directly impact the story, which can be both refreshing and infuriating at the same time.
 
Here's an interesting AH.com TL about a Soviet coalition government emerging in Russia in late 1917 and thus Russia avoiding decades of Bolshevik rule and tyranny:


Here's a January 1, 1921 map of Europe for this TL:
