‘Anarcho-Capitalist Pacific States To OTL’. They’d be futuristic and cyber-preppy rather than purely cyberpunk-ish, not to mention laissez-faire enough to make Texas look like a bastion of left-wing central planning and arms control. Doubt they could fit in the United States of OTL. |

Doubt they could fit in the United States of OTL. We seem to agree there. I’d definitely be curious to see how Ancapistan actually fares when given the chance, but Capitol Hill would be much less receptive since the Pacific States that once answered to it have mysteriously vanished. |

some Museums like those about military stuff will be interesting to those in 1919. |

I wonder what 1919 would think about museum exhibits relating to the holocaust and other events related to WWII atrocities? Possibly also about events to 'come' in communist Russia and China, or simply the existence of the latter state?

Was thinking the same, especially those museums popping up in 1919 Germany, can we classify the former camps as museums ore as memorials to the Holocaust. |

My understanding is that they don’t pay as much mind this element of the war in general, but does Japan have a lot of museums focused on the atrocities their side committed during World War Two also? Because it’d be beneficial for 1919 Japan to know that they weren’t exactly the good guys in what would’ve been twenty-something years later. |

Unfortunately from most of what I've read and heard Japan is very much in denial about its atrocities in this period. I think a few years back they were even removing references to the Nanking/Nanjing massacre from their school text books, along with other issues.
I suspect that if the affected institutions would include say Aushwitz it would come as a hell of a shock to the world, including many Germans at the time.

Wich in the long run might be a good thing, seeing the horrors of the Holocaust in order to prevent it from happening in the future. |

My hope exactly, although I'm not sure what the reaction of the rest of the 1919 developed world will be to "the Germans did what!". Some might want to tighten the terms of the Versailles treaty further. Others might argue for something more moderate. Its also going to open up the old can of worms about what to do about the young Hitler, Himmler etc.

A one way trip to a remote Pacific island would be a good idea for them. |

With museums that no doubt depict Soviet and PRC history getting ISOTed into their midst, I wonder what Tsarist Russia and Qing China will do now that they're aware that they would've been replaced by radical leftist regimes IOTL. For one, I anticipate the Okhrana launching a crackdown of epic proportions in the case of the former.

As backlash against Okhrana suppression and reaction to Tsarist Russia becoming an industrialized superpower under communist rule, I’m guessing? |
