Re: Blood and Iron
Karl Wagner is a disgruntled middle-aged instructor at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College. He finds himself concerned about the direction which the German nation is headed in—just as he is killed by a terrorist attack. Only to awaken and find himself reborn as an infant, Bruno von Zehntner, the youngest son of a noble family renowned for its part in the German war industry a few years after the founding of the German Empire. Bruno, as he is now known, desires to rewrite history and ensure the German Empire emerges victorious in the coming century. And in doing so, finds himself entrenched in a world filled with Blood and Iron!
France Bleeds
Following the events of the Russian Civil War, which began over a decade prior in this timeline when compared to that of Bruno's past life. Marxism, Socialism, Communism, Anarchism, et cetera were all universally condemned by all the major powers in Europe.
Whether it was the German Reich, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, or even the French Republic a major crackdown and suppression began to affect far-left groups. Who were presented as radical extremists whose sole objective was destruction, violence, death and chaos for its own sake.
Because of this, many of the people who adhered to such foolish beliefs were quickly driven underground, those who were not apprehended and tried as seditious individuals went deep into hiding.
