The Second World War has started, pitting the Allies against the Axis Tripartite. The United States and the Soviet Union refuse to enter the war, and by early 1941, Britain stands alone.

In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean a great flash of light is seen by a crew of Germans on a patrolling U-boat. The appearance will not only shift the course of the war, but it will change the course of human history.

The question is: Will it be for the better or for the worse?

Color me interested

This is my first story. The Gore tag will take effect later in the story though it will be minor at most. Hope you enjoy.

The chapters will be short for a while. They will get longer soon though I promise.

This has potential. Not going to judge on writing here in terms of immersion because this is what I'm capable of.

Though short, your story is still pretty good.

Actually speaking English is a priority to most world leaders as English is the language of business and most used in politics.
Most Germans in that era of history studied at universities in America and learned English quit well. Some Germans learned English so all they would need to do is put on an American uniform and they would set up check points and road blocks to either rob American supplies or direct them to ambushes.

I like it.
Though Hitler prefered, well built, all white, blonde hair, and blue eyed men (Hitler was a closet homosexual), these were not the traits of the Aryan Race.
Aryans were any white Germans.
They wanted the blonde, blue, build stuff to be in all Germans, but they can planned on breeding that into the German race slowly.

I feel the Churchill meeting was short lived, but it was pretty good.
And historically accurate.

I'm not sure which side the ponies will side on (I can see imlications on the front page) but at least let them understand why Germany went to war partly due to the harshness of the treaty of versaille

You need to fix the year in the description, maybe not using 1st person for anyone other than the MC, unless Hitler is the MC.

Too quick, but other than that still enjoyable.

>>Heat Signature --- Don't worry Churchill will appear again. He is one of the main characters


>>gamer4COD --- Yeah, now that I look back at it it is a little rushed. As for POV I will keep that for the main characters only, mostly the prominent world leaders at that time. Thanks for the advise


>>batran --- Yes, either Hitler or Heinz will describe the Treaty of Versailles. It will be a tough choice for the ponies on what side to enter.

>>gamer4COD --- Oh one last thing; as for point of view, first person will be reserved for Hitler, Churchill, Celestia, and maybe Stalin or Roosevelt mostly. Some major characters like Heinz will get one or two POVs.

Germany invaded Poland in 1939, check short description.

(Hitler was a closet homosexual

I want sources for this.

In the short description I have "1941: Adolf Hitler has begun World War Two by attacking Poland...."

Notice "has begun"

I am implying that in the 1941. Hitler has attacked Poland and Britain now stands alone

He has already attacked Poland. 1941 he has attacked poland.

You get what I'm saying here?

I had 1939 but 1939 would not imply to after France was defeated and Britain stood alone. I can see the confusion though.

6853197 When stating that Hitler was a closet homosexual (closet meaning only he knew he was), I was making a joke at the perfection and traits he wanted in all men.

6853233
You should say after the fall of France.

6852126
I feel that the morals and beliefs of the Ponies would not allow them to be brought into this war.
They would probably try to end it through peace, but they probably wouldn't join in the slaughter of WW2.
Even this early on (timeline is early) there was a great a deal of blood spilled.

There are only one thing that was good about the Nazi party (that I can think of off the top of me head) and that would be their Smoking Ban.

6853293

By the way Hitler personally believes he was doing the right thing. So hitler's definition of Nazi would be something good and not what it really was.

6853271

You've basically hit the nail on the head. But since they are a bigger nation in the middle of the Atlantic which would make a great airbase for either side, expect both sides to fight for their support. The ponies themselves don't have a good army therefore Equestria's use as an air or naval base would likely be the main reason both sides or one side will want their support.

6853255

I will take your advise thanks.

Just a suggestion, can you make the chapters longer? They don't need to be 5,000 words, maybe around 1,500-2,000 word range. I love this story so much, but I would like to be able to read more content per chapter.

6856565

Sure. The first few chapters are short because they are introducing the characters and having the humans and ponies finding out about each other and explaining the backstory. Once we get further maybe next chapter or the one after I will try my best to have all chapters 1000 + words.

According to my studies in ww2, hitler was willing to knock britain out of the war. Just knock out, no annexation since Hitler was inspired by the British or at least respect them. Unless they have to if Britain still want to fight. A knockout would save Hitler men for invasion of Soviets. Oh yea the extermination of jews wasnt known until like 1944

I actually think that celestia will get along better with the fascist rather than the soviets and the allies. Due mostly to the fact that fascism has a strong focus on unity, and celestia seems partial to autocracies rather than democracies. Of course when she sees the actrocities the fascist tend to commit she might be less than pleased with them.

6858087

Remember Barbrossa (Invasion of USSR) hasn't happened yet. Hitler and Stalin are still in a non-aggression pact, so Britain is for all intents and purposes alone. I also agree with you hitler wanted to end the war quickly but on his terms.


6858392

I really don't feel the need to make Mussolini (a fascist dictator) a main character. I don't know much of his history and he fell rather easily and his people hated him. He was Hitlers original inspiration though. Celestia right now is sympathetic to the troubles of the Germans during the treaty of Versailles though is still wants to restore peace in the human race, something we all know as humans is impossible

6858704 I meant fascist as in both nazism and italian fascism are both fascist ideologies.

6858704

Ik. I said in my comment he was saving troops for an attack on the soviets

6858720
6858776

Sorry, it seemed I misinterpreted both of your comments. I do agree with both of you. Celestia will definitely find the idea of democracy as strange and thus will understand facism better. As for the Soviets remember Celestia is aiming for global peace. Hitler will likely, as you said, prepare for an invasion of Soviet Russia if peace is reached. And Britain would likely want the Republic of France and Poland, Norway, and Denmark restored, something hitter is against. Peace will be hard and still remains unlikely so far.

The ponies may have a weak army but they have shown that they can teleport items directly into another country's command center. That has some fairly useful military applications.

6860126

True indeed. We humans do have a tendency to underestimate. Both Stalin and Hitler can't bring themselves to believe that a small alien army could be a threat to them.

Ah. That means we get to see my 4 favorite people from the world war in one room this will be fun

6860134
6860126
Well that's because they relied on war.
Nazi Gemany's economy depended on war to keep it running.
And Russia believed in superior numbers and strength. Which they had both.
In the war that took near 60 million loves, 40 were Russian (estimate 20 million soldiers, 20 million civilians).
However, Russia was still the strongest force on the planet after the war.
Churchill even had a plan created incase Russia did try their plans of world domination. But Churchill's plan was to have the whole of the Allies attack Russia.
Even he doubted that it would work.


Isn't history the greatest.

I wonder if Equestria should modernize its military and itself (hopefully with German tech, but maybe in style similar with US and UK) in order to protect itself. That would be interesting considering equestria is aware of its puny military (whom is also police)

We should be aware the soviets and germans are still in a pact, and thus i wonder if Hitler thinks its appropriate enough to turn on them in the peace conference

I am still planning plot for next few chapters do not expect an update for a day or two.

No twilight or rainbow dash's reaction?

6869997

Twilight is heading to Equestria with most of her friends from Berlin (will be explained in a chapter soon), Rainbow Dash or Applejack are also preparing for the Equestrian Peace Conference and would not have known about radios nor would have been invited to the speech itself being as it was in the parliament building.

6870183

Well i kinda want to see what happenes to applejack and rainbow dash since the last few chapters but since it could be explained then alright i guess

6870215

Don't worry Applejack and Rainbow will explain their exploits in the UK to Twilight and their friend, before the peace conference. Remember Twilight believes they are missing or dead.

I personally like that speech with Requiem for a Dream in the background.

For Churchill skip to 4:40 for the buildup. If you're impatient, skip to 5:02.

Sorry it took me so long. I suffered from a long case of writer's block.

Even in fan fiction El Duce gets the short end of the stick.

Oh Celestia.......you naive idiot.

you could ask us in the comment section for any ideas, that's what I would do

Some things I would like to get out:
-The U-boat passed the Azores (which is off the coast of Portugal and Morocco), but the ponies flew through Britain to get to Germany, while flying through Spain and France would be the most direct route.
-This feels rushed.
-You'll probably want to find somebody to spell check this for you (no offense).
-The British form of government is referred to as a "constitutional monarchy".
Other than that, keep up the good work.

6992765

I pretty sure I wrote east of the Azores, the U Boats were patrolling around the Azores in a wide circle. Equestria, in this story, is an island considerably farther in the northeastern direction of the Azores thus making the most direct route if you went diagonally over the English Channel or directly over France. Just for the stories sake I made them take a somewhat longer route through the English Channel near the London area. I do understand what you are saying though and I will strive to slow the story a little bit and add more details.

On the spell check thing I will recheck the chapters I write for errors, and in my defense a lot of the chapters were written on my iPad leaving room for error since I tend to type quickly.

...and then, she sees concentration camps.

Do your research. That was not the full speech.
