Triple Empires vs The Democratic Alliance: The Second World War

by Drakefire

The Entente and the Central Powers have beaten themselves into exhaustion, the war ending in an uneasy stalemate, as post-war Europe falls into utter chaos. The British and French Empires reawaken in full, allying themselves with their former enemy, Germany, to conquer Europe. Russia, China, Japan, and the United States stand against them. The Second World War is on the Horizon.
