Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Bundesamt für Kohle und Stahl
Political direction: Liberal Capitalist Technocrats
Foreign Policy: Mostly neutral. Expanding of trade alliances and export.
Social Policy: Shift social responisibilities from State to the Communities and workforce
Economical policy: Laissez-faire. The governement is still allowed to invest and buy industry, if it can be justified
5. Soon
Party History: Originally evolved as a union of factory owners (mostly mining and coal) just after the war. (Coal and steel are very important goods for warfare, hence were overexpanded) The union allowed them to share technology, set industry standards and much more. It gradually expanded and became a political party.

Come on, join the  Vereinigte Deutsche Arbeiterpartei! We simply want to ensure that the interests of the german working class are represented by the implementation of trade unions, where even the humblest worker has a say. Do tell me, what is wrong with such a noble cause?

[Kaferian]

Ignore the Syndicalist scum! They only wish to enslave the common man under their Iron-Fisted rules. Any true German would see through their lies. Join the Alldeutsche Verband instead, as we are the only true protectors of the common man!

Okay 3 Parties so far:

The Gedankenjustierer Partei (GJP) -National Populist/Paternal Autocrat? Which hasn't given much of anything concerning its political program and direction

...

Sorry about that. I suppose I should be a bit more explicit with my questions, and while I'm at it request more details.
1. How much is this world like historical Germany, and what point in history is it most like?
2. What differences are there between historical!Germany of the period mentioned and Realpolitik!Germany?
3. How far has science and technology progressed?
4. What are the prevailing social scientific theories in this time and place?
5. Speaking of place, how far does Germany extend, and does it have any puppet states, colonies, etc?
6. What are the prevailing attitudes of the German and world public?
7. What is the current state of German-Foreign relations?


And as for the Loyalist parties, or rather the lack thereof, I suppose that in this history they (and other major parties) screwed up and haven't been of much importance since, allowing a number of formerly-minor parties to fill the void.

This is a generally good resource to get the basics of the Kaiserreich world, although I forgot how dated it is. Basically, it covers what would of happened if Germany won WW1. It's basically Syndicalists (A form of socialism focusing on trade unions, which is primarily active in the countries that lost WW1.) and the German-backed nations. There are also the Entente, which is mainly compromised of the exiled british government in Canada, the exiled French government in Africa, and the former british colonies that gained independence and stayed loyal.

And then there's Japan.

5. We have Elsass-Lothringen under our control. Other than that, it's historical mainland Germany. We have colonies in Sierra Leone, Madagascar, the other Indian Ocean islands, Ceylon, Laos and Vietnam, Hainan, ports in China, Singapore and the surrounding area, North-Western Borneo, and the various Pacific Islands.  Our puppet states are: The United Baltic Duchy, Lithuania, Flanders-Wallonia, Algostasien GmbH, Mittelafrika, and nothing else that I can remember.

Most of the Stuff is covered in the Update i just finished but to answer the rest:

1. I have given you a timeline in the Opening Post. TO get a World map go here: A pretty accurate map of the Weltkrieg World.

2. Historical Germany lost World War I. Realpolitik Germany won World War I, stayed a Kaiserreich and Constitutional Monarchy and basically now has taken the position of America,Europe and England at once. Adolf Hitler died in World War I in the trenches of Russia in the year 1920 (the war lasted until 1922). But apart from that its pretty much historical Germany. Just no Nazis.

3. Germany as the Most advanced one has 1930s/40s Technology. Some of the most backwards Countries have 1890/1900s Tech.

6. German Public is a staunch supporter of its Monarchy, indeed it is one of the few stable countries not plagued by constant revolutions and counter revolutions. However Free Elections are being held and even Syndicalist Parties are allowed although closely watched. Germany has pretty much turned into Modern Day USA's World Police, Main Leader of Mitteleuropa and at the same time is still Imperialistic and especially the Asian Colonies are ruled with an Iron Fist.

7. Germany has Good Relations with Ireland, The Union of LaPlata, Hungary and Finland, South Africa (although that may change) and even the USA due to the fact that they never joined the First World War.Relations with Russia are rather strained and especialy Relations with The Commune of France, The British Union, Imperialist Japan and the remains of the Entente are everything but good.
In fact and thats pretty nice abou the Kaiserreich-Scenario is that yous tart at a point where everything is potentially possible in terms of Foreign Policy

I'll join the Vereinigte Deutsche Arbeiterpartei for now. I like the views.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Hm, somehow I had missed the fact that this was a whole, fleshed-out previously-made world. Reading and should get to writing soon...

I'll join the Vereinigte Deutsche Arbeiterpartei for now. I like the views.

The Arbeiterpartei secures another vote from the common man!

The Verband will win in the end!

[GreatWyrmGold]

Nein, meine Partei durchsetzen! Wenn wir mehr als ein Politiker.

Oh, and my question 4 (about the current prevailing social-science theories) is an important one for me. Would it probably be like a real-world de-Nazi'd 1930's Germany?

[Ghazkull]

I'm not exactly sure what you mean with Social-Science-Theories.
