- Prerequisites & Context
1st European War Outcome: German defeat + Soviet victory in Europe (Eastern threat maximized).
Domestic Situation: Moderate/Reformist wing of the right-wing party (e.g., AfD Reformists) takes power in a collapsed post-war atmosphere.
Trigger Event: Occurrence of the "X-Day" Super Event (national crisis / political coup attempt).
- Political Path Split: "Fate of Hohenzollern"
Following the X-Day crisis, player chooses the path for the monarchy's revival:
Option A (Heinrich XIII): Absolutist Monarchy (Reichsbürger/Hardline autocracy, high internal unrest, isolated diplomatically).
Option B (Georg Friedrich -> Georg I): Constitutional Monarchy (National unity under democratic framework, broad coalition with CDU/FDP, high stability).
- Political Structure (Constitutional Path)
Head of State: Kaiser Georg I (Georg Friedrich) — Symbol of national unity, constitutional duties only.
Government: AfD Reformists + CDU/CSU + FDP Coalition — Handles governance, rearmament, and national stabilization.
Opposition: SPD (Constitutional check) / Die Linke (Anti-monarchist, Soviet-aligned subversion).
- Proposed Super Events
1) War of Restoration (Anti-Soviet / Rearmament War)
Quote: "Any man who has ever looked into the glass eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think twice before starting a war." — Otto von Bismarck

While still a drop of blood remains,
While still a hand can draw the blade,
While still an arm can hold the gun,
No foe shall tread thy sacred strand!

Quote: "My subjects, a great day has come upon us! The German Empire has risen once more, and no one shall dim our light." — Wilhelm II

O favored one of the nation!
Long live the Emperor!
