The 1949 map game

Scenario
' The year is 1949 and the Cold War has started. Central Europe has been cocked up by egotistical politicians and bloody minded generals. '

The changes are

 * 1) Spain and Portugal did not go neutral and had a small, but bitter battle at one point. Gen. Franco had OTL considered joining the war and invading Gibraltar during ATL 1940 and OTL did so in 1941 after 267th Infantry Division (Wehrmacht) Gen. Lt. Ernst Fessmann was sent to Gran Canaria and Tenerife as a garrison force just in as the UK tried to hit back. Citing the 600-year-old Anglo-Portuguese Alliance remained intact, but that since the British did not seek Portuguese assistance, Portugal was free to remain neutral in the war and would do so. In an aide-mémoire of 5 September 1939, the British Government confirmed the understanding. In this world Portugal helped the USA liberate it as part of Operation Torch.
 * 2) Finland got of a bit less of it's land annexed by the USSR after WW2.
 * 3) The Free City of Danzig (Gdansk) became a UN run city state in 1945, like it had once been under the LoN.  It is unofficaly day to day life is in the Polish, Sweedish and Finnish sphears of infulence, but the UN has the ultimate veito on things.
 * 4) France kept Guangzhouwan (officially: Kouang-Tchéou-Wan) and never gave it back to China in 1945.
 * 5) The USSR annexed the Second Turkestan Republic in 1945 and  has put servile and sycophantic puppets in to the rest of Xinjiang, which they plan to annex in time. The USSR also chose to turn the Baltic States in to servile and sycophantically loyal puppet states rather than outright annex them. Sh?rqiy Türkistan SSR, Vostochnaya Ukraina, Zakhidna, Ukrayina-Halycyna SSR, Tannu Tuva SSR and Itä-Karjala SSR have been created inside the USSR.
 * 6) Japan only surrendered in May 1946 afer Operation Downfall had cost the lives of 1,000,000 Americans, 5,000,000 Japanese, 50,000 British, 30,000 Soviets, 25,000 Canadians and 25,000 Australians. Japan's occupation by the USA is largely unchanged; but Kochi went to China (RoC\Taiwan), Oita and Miyazaki went to the British, Wakayama went to Australia, Hokkido went to the USSR, and Tottori went to Canada when America decide to share the burden of running it to thire allies (under Allied occupation) in 1946. Troops from the USSR, China (RoC), the UK, Canada, New Zealand and Australia all also did a stint helping the USA in occupying the Bonnin Islands, Osaka, Kobe, Yokohama and Nagano between early 1946 and late 1947.
 * 7) As a result of the bloody conquest of Japan. The USA turned into an aggressive, xenophobic, isolationist hermit state with an big attitude problem towards the USSR, Japan, Canada and Mexico. They are still OK the Philippines, Ireland, S. Korea and Taiwan, but that is about all. In responce The USSR started bullying the Austrians, Poles, Germans  and  Chinese a lot more.
 * 8) The USSR OTL fell out with USA, France and UK in 1946
 * 9) The USSR pulled out of Manchuria in 1946. Manchuria became only a Mouist Chinese puppet state, not a Chinese province.

The State of Hanover became a British client state, while Saxony-Anhalt (1945-1952) and Mecklenburg (1945-1952) also became separate Stalinist nations (under Soviet occupation) in 1946. Hanover gained Oldenburg in 1949 for geopolitical convenience. Upper Silesia and Pomerania became part of Soviet occupied Germany and did not become Polish territory.
 * 15) The French held a fraudulent Saarland election in 1948, which gave a 77.5% vote in favor annexation to France.
