To be fair both sides want to reverse Brest-Litovsk, the difference is that the Whites are using the treaty to try to discredit the Bolsheviks but neither the Whites nor the Reds are going to immediately reverse the treaty and neither of the two will accept the treaty forever. The Germans won't be happy with either of the two so I think they would support the Whites a little bit but not too much. If it's OTL treaty.
If it's a lighter peace deal then the Whites would accept the border changes and Germany would prefer not having communists (who made it clear that they are only waiting for the proletarian revolution in Germany) on their border.
True, but once the revolution doesn't come I doubt the Reds would stir up undue trouble.
OTOH there are less investments in the nuclear sector and there are much less incentives to develop such technology.
Again, nuclear physics was advancing rapidly before WWII, and there would still be plenty of investments into potentially unlimited energy.
From I've read and learnt, this is a bit of an exagerration. I'd agree with you that overall France and Germany were similiarly militaristic, but the UK was far from matching them in this field. The Brits didn't even declare mobilization in 1914 and waited two years of war to do so and the Boer War had showed that if the Royal Navy was a top priority, the land army was often neglected. They were surely as imperialistic as the Germans or the French though, but not quite as militaristic as them.
Fair enough on that. To be fair though, the reason the continental states were more militarized than Britain was because they didn't have any natural boundaries like the Channel to protect them.
I rather think that future German-Soviet relationship would depend on who leads the USSR once Lenin is dead. If this is Stalin, your scenario is the most probable: economic dependence on both sides and thus limited ideological rivalry. But if Trortsky takes over, then real conflicts could happen. Surely not direct war for the time being, but the Soviets could carry out proxy wars in China or in European colonies. Unstable and weak countries ITTL such as Spain, France or Italy could also be targets, as well as Austria-Hungary which still has pretty popular independent movements. These actions would most likely be failures but still could be enough to create a more heated German-Soviet relationship, even until the point of war if things turn really badly (a war the USSR would have nearly no chance to win, but that's another matter, as some Soviet leaders weren't always rational).
This is true. The point of the OP was mostly to point out that Germany wouldn't go on any adventures to depose the Reds after WWI.
Those two points are the most flawed IMO (even if they're pretty minors finally). First of, I can't see why people in a world with no WWII would be more liberal. Most of the sources show that Nazism played a big role in discretiding nationalism, militarism and overall conservatism (even if we could argue that Nazism was far from being conservative, but it was largely thought to be so, and this is still the case today). ITTL, only militaristic nationalism would be badly viewed by most of the world, but regular or moderate nationalism would still be a very popular ideology (even more in a CP victory scenario) and if Conservatism would be weakened (with the SPD becoming prominent in Germany) it wouldn't have received the death blow that was WWII OTL.
As for technology, WWII was essential in sppeding up research on Nuclear power, early informatics (with the first computers), and rocket technologies (ITTL, no V1 nor V2 and thus way less experimental tools to start with to make space exploration a reality).
WWII didn't discredit racism or conservatism though; just look at OTL's 1950s and 1960s in the United States. None of the main talking points of the Civil Rights movement were comparing Jim Crow to Hitler. I would argue that war generally doesn't weaken conservatism, but strengthen it. Instability and devastation create a yearning for a return to normalcy; look at Europe after the Napoleonic Wars, or the first few years of the Weimar Republic, with tons of far-right paramilitary groups running around. Look at the US after WWII or Vietnam.
As to your point about technology, WWII delayed the introduction of the television and set back European living standards by a lot; it took Europeans a lot longer to get dishwashers and radios in their houses than it did Americans. WWI set back radar development and civilian airliners.
This peace deal seems too mild for someone who lost a war, Germany gets Luxembourg and a few small colonies from the WEntente in exchange for giving up a few of its own colonies, it doesn't seem like a German victory, rather a compromised peace.
1 and 2 seem somewhat unlikely, I doubt the Germans wouldn't want a better position from which launch an offensive into France if need be.
7 Why does Germany care about Morocco? Aren't there much more important colonies that they could gain?
10 Why does Austria limit to small border changes, couldn't they get much more after a defeat like Caporetto? Wouldn't Venetia and perhaps Lombardia be a goal of the Habsburgs?
15 I get why the Germans want this but in the event of war again this is not likely to be respected so why wouldn't they get something concrete?
There might well be more annexations, you're right. But I don't expect them to, for example, annex half of Belgium and all of Lorraine.
Morocco offers Mediterranean access for them, as well as more Atlantic bases.
Austria doesn't want more restless minorities, and annexing swaths of Italy is a recepie for instability and disaster.
Germany isn't planning on another war, they want to recover and make money again. Global markets help greatly with the latter.
Also, out of curiosity, do you think the Russians would get OTL's B-L or a milder version if the US doesn't enter the war?
You mean the most ultra-nationalist government ever seen didn't fail to cause a world war? Wonder why.
It's unlikely there is something equivalent to Nazism in France, Russia or Britain, it was unlikely even IOTL Weimar Germany.
This. WWII was rather unlikely. Hell, even most Germans in 1939 were less than thrilled at the prospect of war after years of Nazi propaganda. And the Nazis were so utterly insane I doubt anything like them would be replicated in the vast majority of alternate universes.
Without even talking about who wins the civil war, Russia without Ukraine and Bielorussia is way less powerful than OTL USSR during the interwar period, at least there is significantly less potential and ressources to industrialize rapidly, let alone surpass Germany (ITTL a superpower) before many decades.
How do you think the USSR's industrialization could go without Ukraine and Belarus?
