>>14382299>Most Bulgarians hate Russia because they occupied us after WW2 (we were on Germany's side) and forced communism on us. The whole Balkan region is eternally fucked because of this and the OttomansHonestly? As is typical of Moscow governments, they were too nice. What they should have done is flatten every country that fought with Nazi Germany and, heres the kicker, never encouraged or supported any rebuilding effort. Just trash and loot the industry and let the nations rot.
Invade Turkey with the excuse of using Turkey as a launching pad to liberate Greece then occupy both. Annex the Dardanelle's and Bosporus. Rearm and rebuild Greece and Poland and Czechoslovakia and occupy the rest with a force that does nothing but smash every bit of industrialization down to nothing. If America still goes for a mass demobilization campaign, conquer the rest of Germany and link up with France. Deindustrialize Germany.
And just spend however long afterwards taking a enormous fucking shit on much of the continent.
Be nice to Finland.
