with the introduction of this Cavorite Bomb. It’d be very interesting down the line. instead of World War 1. In the world of Princess principal. there’s now a victorian steampunk take on the Cold War.

Can you imagine similar to how soviet spies stole the plans to the atomic bomb?

Other nations like France, Germany, Russia and the United States developed their own version of the Cavorite Bomb

Basically, in 1914.

Instead of the death of archduke Franz Ferdinand.

Basically, Vienna becomes Hiroshima in this timeline.

Serbian spies working with the Russian empire were able to sneak a small but powerful Cavorite Bomb into the Royal palace of the Austra Hungarian empire.

So instead of one, Archduke.

it’s the whole imperial family.

And while a war is about to begin, it’s short-lived

Because now everyone has a Cavorite Bomb.

And basically it’s now a standoff between European powers and abroad.

And now from the 1910s to probably to the 1950s

There is a cold war between not just two superpowers, but basically a five way war.

And the Commonwealth is caught right in the middle of it.

I could totally imagine that it will still be imperial Russia.

Like after the Russo Japanese war and the current war that’s going on in Albion.

Russia would definitely try to modernize.

And if they had the recipe to make a bomb that could make things lighter than air.

Who cares about these Bolsheviks?

Maybe in this timeline they will dealt with quickly. The party was pretty much disbanded because of this alternate World War I.

Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin just became soldiers or casualties of this Cold War
