Axis Powers controlled territory July '42 to July '92

I'm not sure if the Russians could just roll up and take what they please in 1992. The USSR fall in 1989 or 1990 so could they have recovered and moved fast enough to take over most of mainland Europe? My guess would be no. They take over land sure but I should think that the Russians would be more about removing those damn Nazis from their lands once again.

Based on the name I'm guessing Italy also comes with. So the world is going to have alot of far east people who view their leader like a god. That is going suck for people who have to deal with them.

The Nazis are going to be rolled over like hotcakes in a matter of day or weeks. The world is 60 years ahead of them and with no time to get an idea on when they now are the Russians will be rolling into their cities before Hitler can do much of note. By 1993 our biggest worry will be uplifting a people nearly a human lifetime out of date.

Oh I'm sure they will fire a metric fuck ton of their nukes at Germany but this is the Axis powers, not just the Nazis. Some of that would have to be sent south to Japan. So unless you're of the mind the Russians are going to nuke most of continental Europe people will need to be uplifted to at least 1990s living standards. So you should expect long lines of mass vaccine injections as the downtimers get their shots for various diseases that didn't exist in 1942.

I for one would love to see how the Imperial Japanese forces react to the news that Japan was nuked twice and now makes shows with cute high school girls that fight evil and shows about monkey people from space that yell alot and blow shit up that has some green things that have massive balls that great wishes. I would expect a lot of absolutely confused expressions from them when we show them anime and manga stories from postwar. I would think Godzilla would still be a big thing becuase who doesn't love seeing a massive dinosaur with massive blue color fire attack.

This, as said, is for all intents and purposes, the Soviet Union. The military and political establishment still includes war veterans. All will remember the utter devastation inflicted by the Nazis.

Now they have an opportunity of destroying them and saving millions of Soviet lives, including perhaps their own relatives and ancestors?

As such, Germany and Austria are gone. Several hundred warheads worth of gone. Death rate would be at least 80% from the initial strikes, with many, many more dying afterwards. Italy as well might cop a few buckets of sunshine for good measure.

Eastern Europe will be liberated with extreme prejudice. In light of the conditions, there won’t be a neo-Soviet Empire, but those nations will be more likely to get their support from the intact USA.

I must confess that I have no knowledge or experience of what you describe as modern Japanese popular culture. However, I don’t think you’re going to get an opportunity to try and shock them culturally, at least not before they get hit by the Red Chinese and the Russians - in the former case, their IRBMs are extremely capable of destroying the Home Islands. In 1992, the Chicomms had 60 DF-3A, 10 DF-4, 10+ DF-5, ~10 DF-21, plus gravity bombs for their H-6s.

Given what the Empire of Japan did to China and is doing to China as of 1942, are the PLA likely to hold fire for cultural conversion through anime?

No, they are going to nuke and nuke like crazy.

Even if they don’t, then the Americans will need to act with overwhelming force to smash them into the position where they are prepared to surrender. In 1942, that will take the destruction of the IJN and several cities being nuked.

1940s Japan had very vulnerable nodes and 150 Chinese warheads are going to mess them up well beyond the point the few wretched survivors give a darn about what descendants of theirs in an alternate universe will now never do.


Both Russia and China of 1992 aren’t going to be as nice and forgiving as the USA, Britain and France.

I find it interesting that the assumption is that the Soviet Union is toothless in 1992 compared to 1989. Remember, the parts of the Soviet Union that split off have a pretty high correlation with the parts of the Soviet Union that got switched with Nazi Germany and their conquests. Yes, a few of the southern ones are not, but the Russians still have the massed armies equipped with stuff like the T-80, T-72, etc that has an enormous advantage over anything the Nazis have or are even thinking about. The armor on the tanks mentioned is immune to anything the Germans can shoot at them and their guns can go through most of the German armor lengthwise. Hell, I think the T-55 and T-54 can roll over anything the Germans had. There's more vulnerability there, but there will be two things that slow the Russians down. Logistics and the fact that their infantry will be just as vulnerable in 1992 s they were in 1942.
