The World Wars were monumental events, and trying to predict the next one is a popular concept in historical and geopoltical spheres. Today though, we did something different, instead attempting to parallel WW2 into the modern day, as a work of fiction for the sake of fun, rather than as an attempt to actually predict something.

4:40 Cool detail that Mexico was the only nation to protest China, since Mexico was also the only nation to protest the German annexation of Austria back in 1938
I did not know that! That’s really cool
Yeah I noticed that too, it was a nice nod to the Anschluss.
Oh really I didn't even notice. I was wondering why?
Ahh, nice catch! I wondered where the narrator got the idea to choose Mexico to protest China in the UN regarding the outcome of the vote in Taiwan, out of all the nations on earth he could have chosen from. You know your history. 👍 🙂
And here I thought he just did it as a joke
Love the occasional "mask slipping" where you used "Italy" for Russia and "Japan" for Iran. Well done!
Don’t forget Britain and Japan.
Why do I even read comments? Now I know how it will end...

This is a very creative idea. The way the players connect between real history and this allegory is pretty clever.
The most obvious ones are, of course:
China - Third Reich
Russia - Fascist Italy
Iran - Imperial Japan
Japan - Great Britain
South Korea - France
USA - USA
India - USSR
The less obvious, but still easy to connect are:
Afghanistan - Korea
North Korea - Vichy France
Pakistan - Finland
Arabia - China
Israel - Philippines
Stanistan - Yugoslavia
Taiwan - Austria
Iraq - Manchuria
Bhutan - Czechoslovakia
Nepal - Poland
Ukraine - Ethiopia
Belarus - Albania
But these, the ones that require a bit of thought to connect, are very clever:
Europe - Africa
Finland and Scandinavia - Greece
Myanmar - Romania
Thailand - Hungary
Southeastern Asian states- Norway and Denmark
Uzbekistan - Croatia
Kazakhstan - Serbia
Uyghuria - Israel
Mongolia - Switzerland
Kaliningrad - Libya
Russian unsuccessful attack of Moldova and Georgia - Italian unsuccessful advance in North Africa
Caucasia - Bulgaria
Pretty much spot on, great job!

I am honestly impressed, good job!
Korea is France and Japan is uk
China had 1.5 billion people. Could they not just form 30 million troops to demoralzie the allies. Surely america can't afford 30 million troops

This is so good! Even India was USSR, Pakistan was Finland, and Indochina was Scandinavia and Thailand-Myanmar were Romania-Hungary. Brilliant!
Did you notice they called it the Monsoon War, as opposed to the Winter War... although they're never gave a name for The Invasion that would be analogous to Barbarossa, Operation Sun-Tsu perhaps???
No. Thailand was Hungary while Myanmar was Burma. Germany forced Romania to cede North Transylvania to Hungary and in returned promised territory to Romania from the Soviets
In this timeline, he replaced Germany with China, Hungary with Thailand, Romania with Myanmar, and the USSR with India
Indochina is Denmark and Norway. There's other countries in Scandinavia

The amount of nukes launched in this video is enough to blow up the moon.
thank god everyone built the SDI world wonder so 75% never struck their targets
I was original expecting him to have the US to launch 100 megaton Nukes at Iran. But no star wars instead.
Not true all of the worlds nuke combined isn’t enough to destroy a quarter of the moon
No lol you need 600Billion+ Tsar bombas to destroy moon
NOT IF GRU STEALS IT FIRST!
Can you do a similar one but with WWI instead of WWII, that would definitely be fun
Yeah, I want that video too!
Same here that'd be an interesting video.
It could definitly be fun but I think it would tank in "realism". Like that it would be more difficult to draw parallels between modern countries and the countries and empires back then, since before WWI noone (relevant) tried to prevent a war in Europe. The mindset back then was just to fundamentally different imo
@@aaltag4068 Wooo mass human wave attacks
We need a what if ww1 was reenacted in the modern day!
The meeting of China with Japan and South Korea where they discussed the fate of the Himalayas is just like the meeting of Hitler with the UK where they discussed the fate of Czechoslovakia.
This whole scenario is so creative!
In this Scenario this is what I think young Historics do in the 2100s
What if China Won WW3?- What if Germany Won WW2?
Hearts of iron 6 - Hearts of iron 4

What if Iran Never Attacked Israel - What if Japan Never Attack Pearl harbor
The reveal of orbital bombardment was honestly a surprise.

A reenactment of WWI would actually go really well in the modern day actually since most countries would fit very well too
For example:
US: British empire (Both were the most powerful country, have great naval supremacy)
China: German empire (New superpower, authoritarian, new leader is more aggressive than the previous leader to the point that the new leader fires the old leader)
EU: US (isolationist but somewhat align to US/Britain)
India: Russian Empire (most populous nation, somewhat of a rival with China/Germany that is seen as going to eclipse China/Germany)
Japan: France (expansionist during WWII/Napoleonic war and hated by US/Britain in the past, but now is an ally of US/Britain, and is an arch enemy of China/Germany)
Russia: Austria-Hungary (Known to be the "sick man of Europe", was a powerful nation in the past but now a junior partner of China/Germany)
Iran: The Ottomans (The thir wheel for the Central Powers)
ukraine: serbia (The first to be at war)
who woul be italy? bularia? apan?
@@stefanofeblesverastegui8869 Italy could be turkey, they seem to be getting closer to Russia and China, but could very well switch sides due to personal gains
Japan could be Saudi Arabia, they are a mornach dictatorship that is somewhat aligned to the west but not really
Bulgaria kind of does not have a good fit in the modern day, however it would most probably be north Korea since it's the left over central power nation
@@AwesomeNPro Mmmm, I wonder what greece could be
I wonder if the absurdity of this scenario would have been the same experience for people living in the 1930s learning about the events of WW2 before it happened 👀
Tbh not that hard at least for the European theater. I’m sure the more geopolitical savvy ones at that time saw Germany going berserk again
11:55 "The British still managed to hold out." Bit of a Freudian slip there, eh?
i think he just gave up lmao
He had an earlier one at 11:20, which was “joint Chinese-Italian invasion.”
wait a minute... does this lead to an infinite loop of sequential parallel world wars?
yes, every 80 years there is another recession leading to the country hit the hardest going crazy, and the usa goes isolationist for a while, that is a universal constant
Honestly badass idea for philosophy.
I want it to be a series of vieos on seuential parallel wws
I feel like it would eventually lead to what actually happened after many number of iterations...
As long as the US and friends always come out on top, it’s okay.
This is so much fun! The parallels are very clever and well done, and when you know your WW2 history it is a good laugh ^^ great video!!
This is by far the most captivating & exciting video I've ever watched.
The many times if watching all those WW2 history videos got me guessing which country represents which in this scenario.
You my guy deserve a like 👍☺️
Loving the video so far. You truly breathe life into the AH community and suggestion: What if everything went perfectly for Austria since Franz Joseph ascension in 1848
Nice another Austria-Hungary enjoyer.
Bro he didn't even mention NATO. He completely forgot about it that's pathetic.
Before you say "America..." CANADA is NATO. World's 2nd biggest nation may be somewhat relavant in WW3 even without NATO
@@shonenjumpmagneto Biggest, yes, but with a population lower than Argentina's.
@@shonenjumpmagneto It was mentioned at the start that NATO disbanded in this timeline. A bit of a stretch, yes, but this is not meant to be a realistic scenario whatsoever.
Reboots for a "modern audience" are never as good as the original
This comment is too fuckin good XD.
Idk man, this one worked well
except this one in this video
@@shzarmai Valve must've made this video
This was legendary and so much tied to reality and history. Could you please do a second part on the Indian American cold war??
this would be interesting seeing the possible Afghanistan War (Korea War) some equivalent to the Vietnam War (can't think of what could that be) some equivalent to the Cuban missile crisis (also can't imagine what that could be, Puerto Rico maybe????) and the space race with the goal to be the first man on mars instead of the moon and the inevitable collapse of India etc
I go with a more realistic one:
Ch.1 Let's go team China
Ch.2 America f**k yah
Ch.3 Japan got nuked, sinking to the bottom of ocean
Ch.4 Everyone nukes eachother
Ch.5 Now it is year 2077, and the Fallout timeline just started
哈哈
It always astonishes me how you always come up with new concepsts about Alternate History.
Did anybody notice how he accidentally said ''joint chinese-italian invasion'' at 11:18 ?
It wasn’t that accidental
that was funny, like I get where he was going with but didn't expect him to mistakenly call Russia, "Italy" due to its poor performance like Italy in ww2
Did you notice they called it the Monsoon War, as opposed to the Winter War... although they're never gave a name for The Invasion that would be analogous to Barbarossa, Operation Sun-Tsu perhaps???
This video was awesome. Trying to catch all of the ww2 references was very fun
What if Sweden won the great northern war by crushing the Saxon Army at crossing of the Duna river and after the invaded a weekend Russia.
At it once again i see
Sweden cant even win its refuges
What about weekday Russia?
Now next time, what if WW1 was reenacted in the modern day?
Britain annexes Belgium, making Dutch nationalists angry, so angry that when Prince William and his wife visit Brussels, a Dutch nationalist kills both. How's that for a start ?
@@thenamesianna Or maybe swap Belgium with Hong Kong, and Dutch nationalists with CCP sympathisers
I remember an alternate history channel under the name of Orion did this with WW3 and WW4 being world war parallels
I dont know but I really think that, if that happened, modern Russia will be literally WWI Russia, because modern Russia has almost everything that the Tzarist Russia of WWI had. An autocratic regime (Putin and olygarchists instead of the Tzar and the monarchists), an opressed and depressed population by the regime, having invading first in their front (Germany and Austria-Hungary in WWI, and Ukraine now) but then being defeated and forced to leave (Austro - German invasion of Russia in the eastern front in WWI, and Russian forces retreating from northern Ukraine now) and small loyal allies (Serbia and Romania in WWI, Belarus and Kazakstan now) and finally, something that it's still left, but that can be possible in a near future, a Revolution from the opressed population against the regime (February and October revolutions back in WWI, and possibly if russian population is brave enough, a rebelion against Putin regime in a near future.)
yes!
This is the most creative video I’ve ever watched, Great job
I liked the idea of the tactical nukes at the start of the timeline, but the silliest part so far is Iran just letting off a nuke for the hell of it lmao
love how mongolia is just switzerland for this scenario
where minecraft videoos
I understood what you meant when you said it would not be realistic, but I wasn't expecting it to be THIS unrealistic
History may rhyme but not to the point of bein a 1:1 analoy, so I think it's reasonable to think this is not realistic
Dude i can't forgive not even bothering to mention NATO. It was fucking fine! Realistic even until that became horribly obvioudly he overlooked Canada, NATO.
@@shonenjumpmagneto What? Even Pakistan shooting down every single indian nuke in the Winter I mean Monsoon War.
@@tompatterson1548Not to mention Indian and China agreeing to "share" Nepal. That would never ever happen lmao.
Love the part where you say "a Vietnamese CZcamsr" as reference to you being dutch and in this timeline the Netherlands are Vietnam. Edit: if you didn't find it, 21:35
One thing, Saudi Arabia’s capital would not become Medina Or Makkah, because in the Islamic religion, it is forbidden to make Medina or Makkah a capital of a nation, due to the fact that it would be bringing war to the holy cities, and the fact that only Muslims are allowed to enter the city, so diplomacy would be extremely difficult.
That’s a cool fact, thanks for teaching
Ah yes, Mongolia: The Switzerland of Asia.
I would imagine that we would demand tuva, buryatia, inner mongolia and many other mongol states that currently reside in Russia and China in the event of their loss and maybe even join the war at the end kind of like how the turkish declared war on germany weeks before the 2nd world war ended

Would love if there is a sequel to this one🔥 (what if the cold war was reenacted in the modern day?)
that would be fire
Cuban Missile Crisis - Nicaraguan Missile Crisis ?
That would be straight radiation 🔥🔥☢️☢️☢️
Just watch the news for that one
@@banebriggs7486 the way I imagine is that a space race in said scenario would much more likely be centered around reaching Mars as the end goal than the moon, remember that this scenario in the video is not back in the 20th century but in the 21st century considering previous world war 2 and cold war.
this could definitely give an amazing follow up video ngl.
This was endlessly entertaining! I have always loved pondering about alternate history and drawing parallels throughout history and the present day.
This was a real treat for me! Great work!
USA: So it's Glacial War but are you democratic or Communist?
Soviet India: Well, That's Complicated.
This made no sense but also totally fit in the most epic way. The ending made everything feel like a meaningful story. Everyone had to suffer, but the Japanese and the Koreans could finally find out what free time is while assembling weapons. I will probably have a fever by the night
Yea it was a little unrealistic at some degree but it's meant to be unrealistic it's just meant to portray how ww3 would play out if it went like similarly to the events of ww2.
Well I guess I may as well look for some historical parallels
Indochina- Norway and Denmark
Uzbekistan - independent Croatia
Thailand - Hungary
Myanmar/Burma - Romania
Philippines and Malaysia - Greece?
Japan and s Korea - Britain and France
Iran - Japan
Iraq - Manchuria
Arabian countries - Chinese united front

Pakistan - Finland
India - ussr
Bhutan - Czechoslovakia
Nepal - Poland
Taiwan - Austria
N korea - Vichy France
Mongolia - Switzerland
Israel - Pearl harbor or the Philippines
Usa - usa
Uyghurs - jews
Afghanistan - korea
indochina is wrong, it's actually: Myanmar = Romania; Thailand = Hungary
Singapore= switzerland?
Egypt-australia?
Paraguay - Imperial Federation?
In this world I would imagine Afghanistan getting split East-West, with West Afghanistan being a U.S. ally and East Afghanistan being an Indian ally. A war breaks out between each country, in which the fighting is very drawn out, until the U.S. forces get to the Indian border, which is when Saudi Arabia gets involved. The war ends in truce, and afterward West Afghanistan becomes a highly developed country with a strong economy, while East Afghanistan remains a highly oppressive, isolated state well into the 22nd century.
West Afghanistan becomes north Pakistan.
This is actually really cool!Could you make a reversed ww2 (Ussr fights against the allies and the axis)?

Extended Timeline (Feel free to bounce off of this in the replies y'all):
Bhutan would eventually split into two countries: Bhu, and Tan.
Russian Caucasus and Siberia would gain independence. Ukraine would get some of Russias Caucasian land, but it would eventually rebel and gain independence.
Iran would cede Qeshm Island to India, which secures Indias access to the Persian Gulf.
Japan, when fascist China tries to invade them: "Well well, how the turn tables"

We will fight them in the mountains we will fight them on the baseball fields. We will fight them in the massage parlors. We will NEVER surrender.
I don't know much about the current Japanese prime minister although he seems more like a Neville Chamberlain type, but it's a Pity that the Japanese Akita, Shinzo Abe, got taken out in real life.. I would see him being more like Winston Churchill...
Not sure if Kim dae-jung is still in power in South Korea but out of all of them sounds the most like DeGaulle.
@@eddieschwab864 lol that's a better parody line
I loved Mongolia playing as switzerland
I wished that it join the war and took inner Mongolia.
I like how he included 11:18 and 11:54 as easter eggs 😂
croatia reference lool
This is the literal definition of “history repeats itself”
I think this video was really neat, and very creative. I would have liked to see some more parallels for the Iranians/Japanese. The "Germans" and "Italians" got alot of semi-niche coverage, such as "Putin's" rescue from prison. But America's island hopping campaign barely got a mention except for the Kurdistan/Okinawa comparison, and there was no equivalence for the Ichi-Go offensive. Maybe as an alternative, have Iran conduct a surprise attack on Diego-Garcia to destroy American and British naval installations on the island, and conduct a massive naval invasion along the African coast, Madagascar, and the other island chains of the western Indian ocean. Then as America leads naval invasions of the Comoros islands, Madagascar, and Seychelles, Iran realizes it cannot either extract resources from its African holdings, or reinforce them by sea. So Iran launches a last ditch effort against the Arabian League to break across the Suez and down the Nile to link up mainland Iran with it's East African holdings. Just an idea
The History Channel at 3 AM:
I swear, this is like the 5th time I've watched this video man
way too good lmao
Today's situation in my opinion is more comparable to WW1 than WW2 except Russia which has a WW2 mentality
This is one of the best alternate history(future) videos I have ever watched
This… this idea is amazing
Wow, famous SamAb History commenting on a small youtube channel like Possible History!

Imagine a space race during the glacial conflict where unlike in the Cold War the USSA and the United States compete to go to the moon but both the United States and India compete to do a space race to Alpha Centauri😂
Gotta get ‘em Chinese rocket scientists
This could be an amazing idea for a Cold War after the World War

I still cant get what Europe was supposed to be. My best guess is Greece.
Edit: Europe was North Africa, it all makes sense now!
Also, as a Croat i think its funny that Croatia got paralled to Uzbekistan.
Probably it was North Africa, which the arrival of America parallels Op. Torch, while the invasion of Russia parallels the invasion of Italy which was also mostly split into two during the fall of Italy.
Finland was Greece, Europe was North Africa.

He literally made india the soviet union
Yes
11:54 freudian slip
I just love how even if China was supposed to represent Germany, they made their East Asian Co Prosperity Sphere
Also as a Malaysian, if this were to happen IRL then China needs good luck to tighten it's grip over SE Asia as Southeast Asia is sooooo patriotic to the point so I'm willing to bet there would be so many resistance movements
pretty much like what happened to Japan during WW2. There was the VietMinh, Thai resistance, Hukbalahap, Eighth Route Army, Korean Independence Army, Burmese Independence Army which betrayed Japan in the end and etc
The thing witih mexico is, because mexico was the only nation who protested against the anschluss of austria, because of this the austrian government named a bursts in vienna “mexicon platzt”
IRAN: Empire of Japan
arabs: China
China: NoNO Germany
India: USSR
KOREA: FRANCE

I get it lol
11:19 He calls Russia "Italy" by mistake
The premise was confusing at first but then Bhutan Got Czechoslovakiaed and it all started to fall into place.
Man can you do a video about ww-1 in modern day. Where China is German empire, Russia is Austria Hungary, Iran is Ottoman empire and North Korea is Bulgaria.
This is one of your best videos
I lobe how Mongolia=Switzerland wasn‘t Even mentioned.
the end was so incredibly meta i love it
Honestly, this was a really good video
11:54 The blooper may be a blooper but just adds to the hilarity of this video's comparisons
On a more serious note, I enjoyed the comparison and think this should be down more. Sometimes people look at the past but don't know much about that normal people might have thought. This is a good way to get into their heads.
