Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill is the former Lord of the Admirality who was responsible for the the attempted plan to turn the Ottoman Sultanate into a Client State and permanent ally of the British to use them as the land bridge to connect Britain's Colonies in Africa and Asia by land to strengthen Britain's hold on all trade routes throughout the world. However the Japanese discovered that Persia was in their way and created a Pro-Japanese Persian Monarchy ruled by Reza Shah to foil his plan.

## History

### Early Life

Born on 30 November 1874 in Blenheim Palace, Woodstock, Oxfordshire, Winston's father was a prominent politician hailing from an aristocratic family. He grew up to be a rebellious boy who hated formal education and did poorly in school. As a young man he embarked on a military career and visited several countries including British India, Cuba and Egypt where he witnessed bloody battles and was even imprisoned. He served as both a soldier and a journalist, and was greatly appreciated for his work as a war correspondent. Eventually he left the army and ventured into politics.

### Lord of Admaritly

In October 1911, Asquith appointed Churchill First Lord of the Admiralty, and he took up official residence at Admiralty House. Over the next two and a half years he focused on naval preparation, visiting naval stations and dockyards, seeking to improve morale, and scrutinising German naval developments. After the German government passed its Navy Law to increase warship production, Churchill vowed that Britain would do the same and that for every new battleship built by the Germans, Britain would build two. He invited Germany to engage in a mutual de-escalation of naval building projects, but this was refused.

Churchill pushed for higher pay and greater recreational facilities for naval staff, an increase in the building of submarines, and a renewed focus on the Royal Naval Air Service, encouraging them to experiment with how aircraft could be used for military purposes. He coined the term "seaplane" and ordered 100 to be constructed. Some Liberals objected to his levels of naval expenditure; in December 1913 he threatened to resign if his proposal for four new battleships in 1914–15 was rejected. In June 1914, he convinced the House of Commons to authorise the government purchase of a 51 percent share in the profits of oil produced by the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, to secure continued oil access for the Royal Navy.

The central issue in Britain at the time was Irish Home Rule and, in 1912, Asquith's government introduced the Home Rule Bill. Churchill supported it and urged Ulster Unionists to accept it as he opposed the partition of Ireland. Later, following a Cabinet decision, he boosted the naval presence in Ireland to deal with any Unionist uprising. Seeking a compromise, Churchill suggested that Ireland remain part of a federal United Kingdom but this angered Liberals and Irish nationalists.

### World War I

After Belgium declared Neutrality to avoid suffering German Aggression, David Floyd George decided to appease both the Pro-War and Anti-War crowds of Britain by invading Germany through the Netherlands in which the war will end quickly that way. Churchill despised the plan as he did not want Britain to ever get involved in the war fearing that Britain getting involved might cause disorder within all colonies of the Empire.

Despite his protests, the British War Public won as the invasion had commenced. The Invasion was at first successful as Wilhelmina and the Dutch allowed the British to pass through them to wipe out Germany as they are paranoid of the growing power of Germany. Sadly Germany with the Pro-German Netherlands officials overthrew Wilhelmina, conquered the Netherlands and expelled the British after they found out about the invasion by Pro-German Dutch Spies. The failure of the invasion was a huge disaster for the British to the point that the Anti-War Crowd brawled with the Pro-War Crowd. Churchill tried to appease the Colonial Administrators who were part of the Anti-War Crowd due to their fears of angering the native peoples of the British Colonies, Protectorates and Puppet States who don't have the desire to fight in a European War. Sadly the war reached Africa when news of Britain joining the war was official as German, Italian and Spanish forces were snagging the Colonies, Protectorates and Puppet States of France, Britain and Belgium in the African continent.

Churchill decided to end the war with a victory by getting aid from the Ottomans due to the fact Britain was the main defender of the Ottoman Empire, especially against Russian threats and the Ottomans as a British Ally and Client state will end up creating a bridge that connects all the colonies of Britain in Africa, Asia and the Middle east together and having them all full force give aid to Russia to destroy the German line of defense. This will also help the Ottomans and their client state of Jabal Shammar put down the Italian backed Hashimite, Senussi and Saudi Arab Rebels causing trouble in the North Africa and Middle East Region.

The plan at first was a success with victories until the Germans foiled it by distracting British forces in Asia and the Russians with the Japanese joining the Central Powers and their invasion of Indochina and the East Indies (which was given to them by Germany and the Pro-German Dutch Puppet State). Churchill was active in the planning with the Ottoman and Russian Politicians on the splitting and annexation of Persia to complete the "Bridge to Victory" and win the war. He planned for the Russians to have Northwest Persia to merge it into the Caucasus Viceroyalty as the Ottomans have west, central, North, Southwest and Northeast Persia turned into a Puppet State ruled by Mohammad Ali Shah as an Ottoman Puppet. The British then will get Southeast Persia and merge it with the British Raj. They commenced the plan after Ahmad Shah Qajar's death due to having a stroke and falling down, sadly the plan was foiled as the Japanese Backed Persian Army led by the popular Reza Khan took power with Reza Khan becoming Shahanshah Reza Shah Pahlavi, Shahanshah of Persia and founding of the Pahlavi Dynasty. The British and Ottomans were unable to stop this as they were dealing with Arab Rebels, Bulgarians and Italians and Russia was unable to intervene as it was in anarchy and more focused on trying to get their territories in East Europe back from the Germans.

The reason behind Japan's plan of installing Reza Shah was revealed to be Japan's plan to help the Central Powers end Britain's endless supply of Indian troopers. Churchill because of this reason tried to direct control of British Forces to overthrow the regime of Reza Shah before they annex India, due to the importance of India being the crown jewel of India. Sadly the High Command was unable to stop the attitude of the Anti-War Crowd which was growing in numbers due to casualties in Africa, Arabia and Asia. Churchill decided to get Pahlavi Dynasty Persia and Japan out of the war by sending envoys to them, sadly to Churchill's dismay they neglected and continued to fight on the side of the Central Powers due to Pan-Asian Pressure.

Churchill and High Command decided to make their main focus an invasion of France to liberate it. The British ships crossed the English Channel to reach France, but they were bombarded by the German Navy who was guarding the coast. The Bombarding prevented any ships from reaching the coast of France and no troops ever made it. The bombardments continued until the direction of the wind within the English Channel moved towards Britain which caused a horde of ships to be wrecked. Some British soldiers were able to cross the Strait of Dover, but they were captured by German authorities. Churchill finding out about the failure and the failure of the Battle of Tanga tried to cover the battles up, but the Press leaked the news and the Anti-War crowd went wild with rage and attacked the Pro-War Crowd causing more anarchy. The Pro-War Crowd then found out that Reza's Persia annexed the Gulf States and Zanzibar which made it easier for Britain to loose the Arab Revolts and Persia annexing Khiva, Bukhara and Afghanistan as Puppet States which now made them closer to invade India.

Churchill told the Government that he and the High Command failed to commence his plan and that they should declare the Government of India act as Indians are swearing allegiance to Reza Shah and Persia after many defeats that resulted in Indian lives being lost. The Government did not listen and abolished the Government of India Act. This caused anger from the British Administration in India who said that the Government of India act is the only way to stop the Riots and Support from Reza. Churchill supported the Viceory of India's decision to arrest all British Politicians who were against the Government of India Act which made him loose popularity with Government and he despised the decision to have the Viceroy replaced with someone who plans to racially kill off Indians to make India a colony of only White British people. Churchill and the High Command placed Lord Curzon as Viceroy of India to help implement the Government of India Act and stop the madness in India.

Curzon agreed to restore his position as Viceroy of India and commence the Government of India Act operation as Viceroy. Churchill found out that Curzon declared the Government of India Act valid as Viceroy of India as he transferred the Crown of India and the title of Emperor of India to Reza Shah. Churchill was pleased with Curzon's success in ending the war in India and bringing British Citizens in India back. He however criticized how Curzon just left equipment and war vehicles in the hands of the Persians.

The British had lost the Arab Revolts, they tried to commence the Battle Gapoli but they lost to Bulgarian Forces and they lost their holdings in Africa as Churchill then told his comrades and the British forces to retreat from the areas back to Britain with all British Citizens as the British prepare to surrender. Sadly the Government arrested all members of High Command and Churchill with his comrades with the forces of Britain who arrived to the homelands later on for disobeying the Government.

Churchill was then killed during the Invasion of Britain.
