    This is the greatest piece of alt-history worldbuilding ive ever seen. I dont say that lightly, but for 10 minutes I wasn't me - a Brit in the 2020s. I was an American in the 60s in the TNO timeline. I dont think many alt-history projects can claim to have reached that level of awe. This was simply outstanding

    It`s crazy, that the Head of Zentralafrika is Siegfied Müller. Just to remind you: Siegfired Müller or " Congo-Müller" was a german mercenary, who played a major role in the Congo Troubles in the 60ies.
    Well known and made famous by the media, he was also a Wehrmacht-Veteran, how served on the eastern front. He was a higher ranked artillery officer at the end of WW2.
