WWII ends with Allied-Soviet fight

Taiwanese high nobility never existed, before the Japanese took over it was a Chinese province, thus the Japanese could have search forever without any successes.

Seems to me the Japanese-Korean-Taiwanese union looks like OTL Austro-Hungarian Empire, i do hoop the the Japanese-Korean-Taiwanese union is more stable than the OTL Austro-Hungarian Empire.

A massive mobilization of manpower and economic resources on both sides quickly followed expansion of the war to global dimensions. In the long term, the superior technical know-how and greater industrial base of North America and Western Europe were bound to give a decisive advantage to the Allied coalition. In the brief term, however, the Sino-Russians exploited their own mobilization, their vast manpower resources, and their initial military successes to reap one last impressive swath of victories. The Russians occupied most of Poland, Finland, Slovakia, Hungary, and Romania, and in cooperation with their Arab and Kurd allies most of Turkey and Persia as well. The Chinese overrun vast swths of Korea, Hokkaido, and Thailand. Both made important inroads in northwestern India in cooperation with Pakistan; however the Himalayas barrier largely protected India from a Chinese offensive coming from Tibet. Israel valiantly fought off and pushed back any offensive attempt of the Arab armies, which were thrown into disarray.

As time went on, however, the Western war effort entirely stopped the Russo-Chinese strategic offensive drive dead in its tracks. Then it started to gradually push them further and further back as the tide shifted and the entire course of the conflict was reversed. Much like it happened during WWII, the Allied air forces gained an increasing superiority in the air war up to a solid strategic and tactical supremacy. They exploited it to harass and damage enemy army concentrations, disrupt their supply network, and support their own offensives. The Russian, Chinese, Arab, and Pakistani logistic networks, industrial centres, resource-extracting areas, and troops concentrations became subject to extensive and relentless Allied strategic bombing. In Eastern Europe, the Allied counter-offensive led to the liberation of Poland, Finland, Hungary, Slovakia, and Romania. Because of the logistic support of Serbia, Bulgaria, and Greece for the Russians, the Allied powers delivered them an ultimatum to drop it and grant free passage to their own forces. When it was ignored, they invaded and occupied the Balkan states.

An Anglo-American-European expeditionary corps landed in Egypt and Levant-Mesopotamia, occupied the Canal Zone, defeated the Arab armies with Israeli support, and pressed on to occupy the Egyptian and UAR major cities. The Allied forces crushed the Arab troops without excessive difficulty, occupied the Egyptian and UAR territory, and overthrew the nationalist regimes. Conquest of Egypt was relatively swift and easy for the Allies since the Egyptians were cut off from Russian aid and the Arab armies were decisively inferior in quality and efficiency to the Western ones. Conquest of the Levant, Mesopotamia, and Arabia was somewhat more difficult and costly for the Allies since the Russians were able to field a considerable amount of their own forces in this theater. But in the end the Allied forces were able to push the Russians back in occupied Anatolia and Persia.

In the Far Eastern theater, a series of Allied land counter-offensives and amphibious landings led to the liberation of Korea, Hokkaido, and Thailand. The Allies gave strategic priority to the European, Middle Eastern, and East Asian theaters, so the South Asian one remained relatively static in comparison to the other ones. The Western powers provided generous support to the Indians, helping them stop the Russo-Chinese-Pakistani offensive drive and gradually re-conquer their lost territory. However they abstained from engaging in major offensive efforts towards Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Subsequently, the Allied strategic offensive gradually pushed the Russians out of the Baltic states, Belarus, Ukraine, Anatolia, western Persia, and southern Caucasus. The Russians tried a series of counteroffensives in Eastern Europe and the Near East, but after some initial successes, their efforts was contained and pushed back. In East Asia, the Allies landed into and overrun Taiwan, Hainan, Sakhalin, Indochina, and Manchuria despite a stubborn Chinese resistance and counter-offensive attempts. The Russians and the Chinese gradually came to face total defeat in the near future as the Allies relentlessly bombed them, pushed them back into their prewar borders, fought their way beyond that, and geared up to invade their core territories. The Western governments refused to talk about any peace terms that did not entail a complete neutralization of the Russian and Chinese war-making potential and removal of their bellicose regimes from power.

Out of growing desperation, the Russian and Chinese leaders tried to force the Allies to a compromise peace by threatening to use their WMD arsenals. They hoped to scare the Allied powers into leniency, although it was a very risky gamble since the Allies had built up a decisive air supremacy and a vast nuclear superiority. Moreover, the Russians and the Chinese only had long-term bombers as a delivery system, unlike the Allies. Once their threats were ignored, the Russians and the Chinese launched a desperate first strike that destroyed about a dozen targets in North America, Europe, India, and the Far East. Fortunately for the Allies, their decisive air superiority enabled them to intercept all the other Russo-Chinese bombers and limit damage. Nonetheless, the Allied nuclear reprisal was inevitable and devastating. The Allied counterstrike destroyed over an hundred targets in Russia, China, and Pakistan, in addition to all the known or suspected sites of their WMD arsenal. Once the conflict escalated to large-scale WMD use, the Allies threatened to continue their nuclear bombing of Russia and China to their utter destruction if the enemy powers did not surrender.

The surviving Russian, Chinese, and Pakistani leaders complied with the Allied ultimatum and WWIII came to an end after three years of fierce fighting. The Allied nuclear strike, on top of their conventional bombing offensive, threw Russia and China into chaos. Nonetheless, Russia had rebuilt itself out of a similar situation after WWII to threaten Eurasia again, and had been the aggressor twice in the last two decades. So the Western leaders decided to spare no efforts to eliminate the threat of Russian revanchism once and for all, despite the huge costs a military occupation and reconstruction of the Russian territories entailed. The Western alliance occupied Russia and made it subject to the same kind of extensive reconstruction, rehabilitation, and re-education program that Europe and Japan-Korea had experienced after WWII. The costs of occupation and reconstruction were burdensome for such a huge area, but the joint effort of America and Europe was able to bear them, and they got the help of Britain, the Dominions, Japan-Korea, and India.

The second defeat at the hands of the Allied powers in a generation demoralized the Russian people and discredited anti-Western nationalism. The outcome of the war promised a slide into failed-state chaos, but the Allied occupation forces were able to contain and reverse it with some effort. Their presence ensured the fairly efficient delivery of a considerable amount of relief aid and later support to reconstruction. This greatly helped counterbalance the destructive effects of the Allied conventional and nuclear bombing and the inevitable resentment it fostered. The Allies prosecuted and punished the Russian war criminals, surviving leaders of the nationalist regime, and key members of the repression apparatus, but treated the Russian civilians and professional military decently. For these reasons, the vast majority of the Russians accepted the outcome of the war in relative good grace as a verdict of history on their cause and collaborated with the Allied occupation authorities. Nevertheless, Russia could not entirely avoid a punitive peace deal.

Finland, Norway, the Baltic states, the South Caucasus Federation, Poland-Ukraine, and Iran recovered their pre-war territories, sometimes with a few important border changes in their favor, such as the Polish-Ukrainian annexation of eastern Belarus and the Don region. Northern Caucasus got partitioned between Ukraine (the northwestern and central portion), Turkey (an exclave encompassing the southwestern area), and Iran (the eastern portion). The Allies expelled pretty much all the Russophile Russian-speakers from these lands to end the threat of Russian irredentism once and for all. The Americans considered an annexation of eastern Siberia on top of Kolyma and Kamchatka they had got after WWII, but ultimately they dropped the idea since they did not want such an extensive land border with Russia. Moreover, the Western powers could obtain pretty much all the economic rights they wanted for the Russian resources thanks to the occupation regime. Afghanistan annexed Tajikistan, but otherwise the Allies allowed Russia to keep the rest of its Central Asian territories. The region had got an extensive deal of Russification after WWII, the native populations historically showed lukewarm support for independence from Russia, and the geographical position of the area between Russia and China made the Western powers skeptical its forced separation from Russia was worth the effort. Serbia, Bulgaria, and Greece were perceived by the West and treated as turncoats and defeated enemy states: they got a similar treatment as Russia, although to a less extensive degree.

For China the situation got different: much like Russia, the outcome of the war had triggered a slide into failed-state chaos. In this case, however, a return to the division and disorder of the warlord era proceeded essentially unopposed since the victorious powers were reluctant to engage in large-scale military occupation of the country. They were concerned with the vast size and huge population of China, the fierce nationalist character of its people, and previous failures of would-be conquerors in the modern era. Moreover, they already had their hands full with the occupation and rehabilitation of Russia, reconstruction of the areas damaged by the conflict in Europe and the Far East, demobilization, and a return of their own societies to peacetime conditions. Nevertheless, previous experiences of the 20th century made the Western powers aware of the risk defeated great powers or emergent revisionist polities left too much to their own devices might rebuild themselves, turn rogue, and threaten global security again, no matter how much their present situation looked hopeless. Germany had done it, Russia had done it, the concern was the cycle might happen again in the future with China, the Arab world, or other disgruntled actors.

Few were willing to contemplate the risk of the Western world falling into complacency again and having to fight yet another world war a generation or so down the line, with nuclear proliferation potentially threatening the very survival of civilization. In the end, the Western powers decided to spare themselves the over-extension headache of large-scale occupation and extensive reconstruction of all the defeated enemy powers. However they would commit themselves to establish and protect a new world order that would enforce global security and suppress emergent threats to peace, such as a resurgence of hostile nationalism. In this framework, the Western powers would keep, entrench, and intensify their cooperation and integration to form the cornerstone of the new international order. China proper was spared foreign military occupation – in hindsight, it later got questionable it was the best decision – but its lost almost all its border territories. Tibet got independence under the protection of India and its Western allies. Japan-Korea annexed Hainan, Mongolia, and Manchuria. Almost all the Sinophile Han inhabitants of these areas were expelled to remove a potential source of Chinese irredentism. Hainan was integrated with Taiwan and Manchuria and Mongolia merged to form a few new major territorial units of the East Asian Federation. The Mongols, the Manchu, and the non-Han peoples of Hainan became component nationalities of the EAF, although the new territories also got a considerable amount of Japanese, Korean, and Taiwanese settlement over time.

The Western powers allowed China to keep Xinjiang more or less for the same reasons they let Russia keep its own portion of Central Asia. They made an effort to provide generous humanitarian relief to the Chinese, but given the chaotic situation in unoccupied China and the lack of Western forces on the ground, such aid proved to be of overall poor effectiveness and got largely wasted, except to a limited degree for the coastal and border areas. Therefore, after a while, the West largely left China to its own devices, only taking care that its domestic disorder would not become a serious threat for the stability of its neighbors. Indochina mostly reverted to the pre-war political settlement, although all of the region was now firmly under Western influence. Pakistan was partitioned: Afghanistan got the northwestern areas, Iran the Baluchistan province, and India annexed Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Sind, and Bengal.

The outcome of the war and the sorry state of postwar China caused a large influx of Chinese refugees which threatened to flood the rest of East Asia. Japan-Korea largely kept its borders closed to them and as a matter of fact they made an effort to remove the Han from their recently-acquired territories, so most refugees went to Southeast Asia or Siberia. This further heightened the ethnic tensions created by the war in Southeast Asia, eventually leading most states in the region to enact a crackdown of Chinese refugees. Eventually, most of them found their way to the Western states. Much the same way, the war also caused a sizable flow of Eastern European and Russian refugees to Western Europe and North America. This vast immigrant influx caused some serious social and political tensions, out of the usual nativist backlash to immigration spikes but also because of the former enemy status of the Russians and the Chinese. With time, however, resentment toned down and integration of the immigrants proceeded fairly well, mostly thanks to ongoing postwar prosperity and confidence in the Western nations and because the newcomers largely proved loyal, hard-working, and willing to integrate.

In the Middle East, Israel annexed the Sinai peninsula and got a few other favorable border corrections. It came to own Mandatory Palestine, the Sinai Peninsula, the Golan Heights, northwestern Jordan, the east bank of the Jordan Valley, and southern Lebanon up to the Litani River with the blessing of its Western allies. The Suez Canal zone was detached from Egypt and put under international (i.e. Western) administration. Most Arab inhabitants of these areas fled or were expelled. Monarchies were restored in Egypt and the UAK and a mix of Western-leaning officers and conservative Muslims took power as their new ruling elites. The Arab oilfields were returned to control of the Western companies. The humiliating defeat of Baathism in WWIII discredited secular nationalism in the Arab world, but it stoked resentment for Western imperialism in the Middle East. In combination with the authoritarian and corrupt character of the Arab regimes, these conditions created a political vacuum that the rise of Islamism was eventually to fill. Unlike Russia, the Western powers did not really bother trying to enact an extensive reconstruction and reform of Arab societies in their own image.

The decisive defeat the militant Arab regimes and their allies suffered in WWIII, as well as the huge discredit this dealt to ethnic nationalism worldwide, crippled the nationalist insurgency in the Maghreb. This helped the European military crush the rebellion with the help of their American allies in a bitter and brutal armed conflict, and made a compromise possible with the moderate elements of the anti-colonial movement. Despite their military victory, the European governments reluctantly came to realize continuation of the colonial status quo was not sustainable in the long term and would eventually lead to new rebellions. So they negotiated a compromise that allowed Europe to keep a few areas of the Maghreb with an important European settler population and/or special economic or strategic value, which got most of their Arab and Berber inhabitants with questionable political loyalties removed. The rest of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya was merged into a North African Confederation with the Alaouite family at its head that got self-rule but kept a political and economic bond with Europe.

With the progress of European integration, this bond soon got a Pan-European dimension. One of its main manifestations was the establishment of the European Neighborhood Area, a free trade and economic cooperation system between the EU and the NAC that brought a significant amount of industrialization, development, and stability to the Maghreb. European-North African cooperation however maintained strict limits for Arab immigration to Europe even when the EU established free movement of people, since anti-Western Arab nationalism and the influx of Chinese, Russian, and Eastern European refugees made the European leaders wary of uncontrolled Muslim immigration. This policy later got entrenched once the Islamist problem started surfacing.

Nice timeline

No apologies needed, any update is a good update.

So the world is not stable even with the end of World War III.

A China with a Kim dynasty nutjob in charge, that is not a place i would want to live in, North Korea already has thousands in labor camps, imaged what it would look like in a China version.

Well so this China under a Kim dynasty regime, is it a imperial dynasty with them being emperors like those of old China ore a big version of North Korea of OTL.
