The Unbroken Reich - What If...

Marcus Draysun

As World War I raged across Europe, 1917 emerged as the critical year that could have determined the war’s ultimate outcome. In our reality, the entry of the United States and the crumbling of the Eastern Front led to Germany’s eventual defeat. But what if events had unfolded differently? A few pivotal moments could have swung the war in Germany’s favor, altering the course of history entirely.
One of the most significant factors was the failure of the German spring offensives in 1918. If these attacks had broken through Allied lines, Germany might have forced Britain and France to negotiate peace before American troops arrived in full strength. The Germans, under General Ludendorff, came close to achieving this, but logistical challenges and the resilience of the Allies ultimately led to exhaustion on the German side. Had Germany secured victory on the Western Front in early 1918, a new Europe could have emerged under German dominance.
Another key element was the Russian Revolution. With the fall of the Tsar and the rise of the Bolsheviks, Russia exited the war, allowing Germany to shift troops westward. However, if Germany had been able to negotiate a more favorable peace with Russia earlier—perhaps by supporting a less radical government—it could have stabilized the Eastern Front sooner, securing vital resources and preventing the chaotic collapse that followed. A stable Russian ally or puppet state could have relieved Germany’s strategic burden and ensured long-term control over Eastern Europe.
