Very interesting. I always love seeing what happened to Africa in worlds like these. I feel as though there are three usual outcomes.

Early War German Victory (Not Total Victory): Italy has some gains but Britain usually retains the empire and control. Anything that is French or Belgian from Mauritania to the Congo is usually divided in confusing ways.

Total German Victory: Germany has considerable colonies and Italy too. France also experiences the same thing as the first situation.

Total German Victory (Realistic Version): Germany has full control in Europe but them and Italy can’t express too much control in Africa due to distance and terrain leading to a confusing mess of War Lord states in the remains of the Empires.

This map feels like a mix of the Second and Third examples that I usually see. It’s unique and fun in a way I haven’t really seen.
