## 1930s

***1939***

* After several years of Soviet aggression in eastern Europe led by Leon Trotsky, Germany invades Soviet controlled Poland with the aid of Britain, France, and Japan.

## 1940s

### ***1941***

* After years of struggling against the USSR, Germany stages a false flag attack on a US military base in Anchorage, Alaska. The attack appeared to US intelligence to be Russian-led, so the United States government declares war on the Soviet Union.

## 1950s

### ***1958***

* The German American Bund is discovered building a bunker in upstate New York. This causes a strain on relations between the German and American governments, which culminates in Hitler's paranoia of a potential nuclear strike by the Americans. Hitler activates the survival program, hundreds of thousands of Germans around the world are ordered to hide in their local bunkers. Hitler himself retreats to his own bunker with his wife to be cryogenically frozen for 200 years, and launches a pre-emptive nuclear strike on the United States. The US retaliates with their own nuclear arsenal and within the span of 24 hours, most of the world is engulfed in nuclear flame. Billions are killed. An artificial intelligence based on Hitler's personality is created to lead the Reich until he emerges from cryogenic isolation.
