Every hoi 4 game in a nutshell.

“Damnit Mussolini what are you doing?”

[vistagreat]

Nazi Germany: *collapses and is divided*
German Empire: *Gains land after being defeated*

[taureon_]

führer: "u succ"
kaiser: "nice job there buddy"

[trollface]

Mr. Wilhelm II made a huge mistake: Trust Austria

[slikespitfire]

“Sleepy Willy” and “Little corporal” Nice

[RoyalRoseTrue]

Hitler's Germany: Wins, Collapses by 1945 and is disgracefully divided.
Kaiser's Germany: Slowly wins, Slowly collapses, by 1949 and is given Czech and Austrian territories as well as Danzig and Alscass-Lorraine.
*I think despite the terrible loss of life, the Kaiser won a Greater Germany*

[Nonaggress]

The only explanation that makes sense for how the German Empire ended up is Wilhelm calling Otto von Bismarck out of retirement at the last second, with Bismarck running the greatest diplomatic hustle of his life.

Christopher honestly makes the best timelapses, he has a certain originality to them.

German empire: defeated
Allies: yeh let’s feed them land!

[LegendaryMercDC]

Allies defeating hitler: "we must break up germany to ensure world peace!"

Allies defeating the kaiser: "if we let you retain your lands and give you these territories will u promise to stay the hell away from us?"

2 men doing a contest, millions die.
Sounds quite likely

7:58 Lmao German Empire still kept its clay.

[MaskofPoesy]

That is one sexy Germany at the end. Heh, maybe you're alright Wilhelm.

[coloneltaynov]

love the banter between them. Finally something refreshing in a HOI4 timelapse

[immaculatedripboy]

Can we take a moment to appreciate Yugoslavia in kaiser realm getting so big

[ftjqvil]

I like how the allies in Will's timeline are just like "OK you dudes fought like devils over there. We're gonna let you keep your land but:
1. PLEASE LEAVE US ALONE.
2. Help us kick the commie in the nose."

Yugoslavia in the German Empire game : Now it's my turn 🔫😎

[DaSniper]

Here’s a tip if you’re playing as the German empire. Try to get Austria into the faction that you lead so you can get the decision on annexing Austria. You get cores their generals and soldiers (assuming Hungary doesn’t protect Austria or succeed in the referendum)

[jackp.richardson]

So in other words, the Kaiserreich expands and joins the allies in a crusade against communism, while Hitler & the Nazis have to fight off a two front war of a united communist-western allies alliance.

The keiser who lost twice
Edit: German defeat in keiser’s game was much more honorable, it even gave them land!
