Mini Series Part 4 - After the War
<p>In Part 4 of our Miniseries, we pick up from where we left off in 1946 & continue the story through 1963</p><br><p>The War is over. Call it World War 2, call the Great Patriotic War, call it the Patriot's War, or even just call it THE WAR. However you name it, it's over. Now it's time for the nations of the world to start putting themselves back together, to set up the new order of the world, & to start doing impossible things. Will they follow out timeline & reach for the Moon in the 60s? Will the Communists succeed in China? North Korea? What about in Vietnam or Cuba? How many Weapons of Mass Destruction will they amass & who will they point them at?</p><br><p>Join me again as we explore this wildly different timeline where Moscow was wiped out by a meteor strike in 1908, the Soviet Revolution failed, & the Tsars are still ruling over Russia. If you haven't heard Parts 1 & 2, I recommend going back & checking them out.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Millions of different versions of this man are coming home & they are not always getting along or cooperating with the authorities.</p><br><p>So if you plan on traveling through the multiverse once our level 5 quarantine is lifted, then please listen to the advice that's given in this episode.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
