[WHAT IF GERMANY WON WW1? | KAISERREICH LORE: OTTOMAN EMPIRE, BULGARIA, GREECE, ARABIA, IRAN, CAUCASUS]

In the North, the unreliable Bulgarians and the revanchist Greeks prepare to redraw the map of the Balkans. In the South, Ottoman rule has all but retreated from the lawless deserts of Arabia, now home to growing bands of Arab freedom fighters.

The Central Powers alliance of old has dissolved into irrelevance, and Constantinople now stands alone. To make matters worse, the fall of the British Empire has thrown the MiddleEast into turmoil. Egypt and Persia, now free of British influence, rise to challenge the Sultan in Constantinople. Their growing alliance vows to rid the Arabian peninsula of Turkish rule for once and for all.

Eight years ago, the Ottoman Empire barely survived the Great War. It is yet to be seen whether she will survive the Desert War to come...
