Rule of Axis: Revived (Map Game)

The year is 1962, however, it's not in the 1960's we know. The Axis managed to win World War II, and they have devastated the Allied forces. Germany, using its newly developed Messerschmitts, managed to protect its airfields, and thus avoided Allied bombings of its industrial centers allowing them to produce more supplies for the war.
With this advantage, they were able to push back the USSR into the Ural Mountains which forced them to sue for peace on the 2nd of May, 1945. The remaining Allied forces surrendered only two years later in 1947.
The Axis may have won the war, but their rule is once again met with opposition. There are several groups of people who are demanding independence for their respective countries. To make matters worse, the nations formerly known as the "Allies" have formed a new alliance called the "Washington Treaty of Mutual Defense" in order to oppose the Axis powers.
Will you free this world from Axis domination or will you risk your life for the Führer or the Emperor? It's all up to you.

== Rules ==
* Don't be OP. This can lead to nations or NPC's to create a coalition against you. Not only this, but you can also get rebels, if you expand rapidly into countries with different cultures.
* A sudden undemocratic change of government will result in public unrest or even a revolution, unless you change from authoritarian to democratic government.
* Invading a nation without a casus belli on them will make other nations more likely to form a coalition against you. To avoid this, try finding a casus belli, for example, if a country has lands that historically were yours then you have the Reconquest casus belli against them.
* If your country is defeated, you can rejoin as another nation.
* Don't do anything too unrealistic, e.g., Nazi Germany becomes democratic and forms and joins the WTMD.
* If you join as a vassal you have to obey your overlord, but you can join as a rebellion instead to try to gain Independence.
* Any player who doesn't complete a turn will be skipped. If you are skipped three times, you are kicked out of the game.
* No Nukes, It makes the game unfair. However, other WMDs are allowed.
* In your comment, you must add " Ducks are great " to prove you've read the rules.

== Backstory (WIP) ==
It all started back in 1929 with the stock market crash on Wall Street. This caused a global economic crisis and it has led to many losing their jobs. People were affected all around the world, however, the newly formed Weimar Republic was one of the most affected countries. The Weimar Republic was formed back in 1918 when the entente forced the German Empire to sign the Treaty of Versailles thus ending Germany's status as a world power.
At first although the population disagreed with the treaty but the newly formed nation managed to keep everything under control up until the stock market crash of 1929. Millions of people lost their jobs, poverty was high and inflation was out of control. During these dark times, however, there was a man who promised a way out. He promised not only to finally end Germany's problems but also to restore Germany's former greatness. This man was Adolf Hitler.
Hitler finally seized power in 1933 and he managed to end unemployment and poverty. He started the construction of many military factories and started to improve Germany's infrastructure with building the so-called "Autobahn" all over Germany. In just a few years he led Germany out of poverty, ended unemployment and inflation and made Germany a great power once again.
However, Hitler was also extremely imperialistic and he completely disregarded the Treaty of Versailles. He re-militarized the Rhine and annexed Austria and half of Czechoslovakia while he made the other half a puppet of Germany.
Britain and France were worried by the aggressiveness of the new German government so they warned Germany not to invade Poland. Hitler thought, however, that neither of the two countries would do anything if he invaded Poland so Germany launched an invasion of Poland on the 1st of September in 1939. What Hitler didn't expect, however, is that Britain and France would actually come to the aid of Poland and so they declared war on Germany.
The German military quickly devastated Poland alongside the Soviet Union as they agreed to share Poland in the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact. Then the Germans moved on to invade Denmark and Norway in order to stop Sweden from exporting steel to the allies. After successfully taking over these countries Germany launched an invasion of France and the low countries devastating them in just 46 days with the help of its Italian and Spanish allies.
As the war moves on the three countries form an alliance called the Axis powers among themselves and Japan. This alliance would later on get extended with the joining of Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria as the Axis powers invade the Balkans.
As the German war machine seems unstoppable the Axis powers decide to invade the USSR on the 22nd of June 1941. Once again the Axis seemed unstoppable on the eastern front and to regain the lands it had lost in the Winter War. Finland also joined the invasion on the side of the Axis powers.
In the meantime Japan is building its empire on the Pacific at the disdain of the United States. On the 16th October 1941 a fascist coup occurs in Turkey led by Fevzi Çakmak. As the new leader of Turkey he joins the Axis and declares war on Britain and the Soviet Union only two days after seizing power.
Turkey's location proves useful to the Axis as they're now able to easily seize the oil rich British territories in the Middle East and start marching into Egypt. As the British are facing enemy forces both on its western and eastern side in Egypt Axis forces are able to capture Egypt after months of fighting.
On the Caucasian front, however, Turkey doesn't prove to be as useful as in the Middle East and North Africa as they're stuck in the mountains of the Caucasus.
Meanwhile, the USA declares war on Japan on the December of 1941 due to its attack on Pearl Harbor. However, the American declaration of war on Japan leads to the rest of the Axis siding with Japan. In 1942 the Axis attempts to take over the Caucasus and they manage to even reach Stalingrad but after eight months of bloody fighting the Germans are finally kicked out of the city.
This greatly boosts Soviet morale and they launch an offensive to kick out the Axis forces from the Caucasus. The offensive is successful and thus it gives the confidence to the allies to launch Operation Torch on the 6th of March 1943.
At first they manage capture Morocco and much of Algeria. However, Germany sent its newly developed Messerschmitts into battle for the first time on the 11th of March 1943. These new planes were capable of not only protecting German airspace but in the meantime, it was also capable of providing Germany with its much needed air superiority.
With the Germans gaining air superiority not only their industrial cities weren't in danger of bombing but now they could finally start decimating allied war production in Britain and the Soviet Union.
Using the situation to its advantage Germany managed to push back the allied forces in North Africa and they have fully kicked them out on the 18th of April 1943. The German success in Africa discouraged the allies from the planned landing in Normandy leaving the Soviets completely on their own with the exception of allied soldiers in Africa.
The Germans after this minor setback sent more of their forces to the eastern front where they successfully recaptured the city of Kursk in the largest tank battle of history. This victory has decimated the Soviets especially since they've lost in the siege of Leningrad too as the city surrendered on the 27th of August 1943.
In the meantime Japan was fairly successful on the Pacific front as although the Americans did outproduce the Japanese in ship manufacturing but most of the American fleet was used to protect the British from German naval attacks and submarine raids. As most of the American fleet was focused on Germany they were forced into playing a defensive role on the Pacific.
As years went by the Germans finally captured Moscow and the Caucasus region and they even managed to push back the Soviets till the Ural mountains in April 1944. However, after this point, the front line stuck and they were fighting in a stalemate on the eastern front for more than a year. Many members of the communist party wanted peace with Germany as they're no longer capable of continuing the fight with the Germans. However, Stalin insisted on fighting until the last man.
This stubbornness on Stalin's behalf have led to many resenting him in both the communist party and the military so on the 30th of April 1945 Stalin was overthrown and they've made Nikita Khrushchev the new chairman of the party and the Soviet Union sued for peace on the 2nd of May, 1945.
With the Soviets out of the picture it seemed like nothing could stop the Axis anymore so the allies surrendered on the 12th of June 1947.
The two sides signed the Treaty of Nuremberg and thus officially ending the Second World War. The treaty enabled Germany and Japan to become the leading superpowers in the world. However, it wasn't too harsh on the British and the Americans as they got away with minor land losses and with no military limitations nor being forced to pay war reparations.
Although the Axis countries could've used some money after the war, however, even despite their strength, they were in no position to impose a harsh treaty on the allies.
As time moved on both sides started working on recovering from the war and due to fear from the newly gained power of the Axis powers the former allies established the Washington Treaty of Mutual Defense or just WTMD for short in 1954.
The victory of the Axis powers have also slowed down decolonization as Germans are brutally suppressing any opposition they face on their newly gained colonies. Meanwhile in Britain although there are separatist movements but due to fears of the Nazis invading them if the British pull out most of the population decided it's not worth it even though Sudan did risk taking its independence in 1959 and there's a growing level of separatism on the British colonies.
Although everything seems to be going well for the axis but this isn't exactly the case. There are several separatist movements all over the conquered territories of the axis waiting for the opportunity to rise up but for now the Axis powers are able to keep order.
Meanwhile, Italians are still mourning because of the death of Mussolini which happened on the 28th April 1958 when he was at the age of 74 due to lung cancer. In the meantime things aren't much better for the Reich either as although Hitler is still alive but his health is not what it used to be. The 73 year old Führer is in terrible condition as he has Parkinson's disease.
He's currently being treated in one of the best hospitals of the Reich. Meanwhile, party members in the Reichstag are already making plans for his replacement but Himmler is already preparing a secret SS coup to establish his military rule once the Führer is dead.
