It's interesting how the story morphed into a mix of WWI and WWII : on one hand the factions are all WWII (the Empire slowly morphing into the IIIrd Reich, the Free Republic boing Free France, the Union being the USSR) with their respective leaders (de Lugo = de Gaulle, Romeel = Rommel, Uncle Joe = Staline...), many battles and military decisions are still from WWI : the Union's great spring offensive is basically the Brusilov Offensive (although this time the Empire attacked before it could happen) while the Empire's advance and capture of Union territory is similar to the German and Autro-Hungarian empires huge advances toward the collapsing Russian Empire-then-Russian Republic-the-Soviet Union. (such as Operation Faustschlag)

Althought it's interesting to note the several points of divergences with the history of WWI and WWII : here it's the Republic that got a "reverse Treaty of Versailles" (which doesn't work because most of the French forces relocated in Northen Africa to continue the fight), the Free Republic is actually the French government's original plan in 1940 in answer to the German army having invaded most of the country (relocate the government and most of the army, aerial and naval forces to North Africa and continue the fight from here, maybe stabilize the frontline at the center of France if possible) had Petain not manoeuvered to be granted supreme authority and used it to basically make a coup and transform the country in a pseudo-fascist and collaborating state. Meanwhile the Nordic countries are the ones occupied and with the extended Resistance networks making the occupers' life hell instead of France, while in the actual WWII the Nordic countries were neutrals-but-kinda-allies to the IIIrd Reich.
