...FOR REASON IN REVOLT NOW THUNDERS...

1851, Karl Schapper, along with the Communist League, including Karl Marx, and the workers of Sheffield, England began a mass strike, followed by a revolt that sent a wave of revolution across the world. The revolt and short-lasted worker's city lasted for 33 days, but it's ring was heard across the world. The communist league was exiled and they fled across the world. Marx and Engels, along with the majority of the Communist League fled to South America, the rest of the League fled to the USA and the Middle East.

1871, ten years later, the workers of Paris revolt. The revolt, following the end of the Franco-Prussian war, lasted for 12 days.

1877, the Great Railroad strike takes place in West Virginia and Pennsylvania.

1897, a mass scale worker's strike takes place in Bremen, Germany lasting for 2 days, the worker's demands were not met, many workers end up executed by the police.

1914, the Great War begins.

1917, the October Revolution begins, led by Vladimir Lenin, setting off the Russian Civil war. Pu Yi is restored as the monarch of the Qing government, with most of the Chinese Republic generals and warlords falling back due to the Worker's revolt in southern China, led by Zhu De.

1918, the impact of the Russian revolution is felt far and wide, in Europe, Finnish workers revolt and occupy a large part of southern Finland with the help of the Bolsheviks, leading to a 5 month civil war, a 4 week truce, and finally the end of the Finnish civil war resulting in the victory of the "Finnish Reds". The Spartacus League and the KPD organize a massive worker's revolt in Augsburg and Moosburg, later spreading to Munich and Landshut, and occupying nearly half of Bavaria. The Spartacus League and KPD division with the USPD, leads to many infighting and the assasination of Kurt Eisner, proclaiming Rosa Luxemburg the leader of the new Bavarian Soviet Republic. With the aid from the Bolsheviks, the German Revolution leads to a halt and a ceasefire in late 1920. In Hungary, Bela Kun leads the Hungarian worker's revolution. Knowing he would be quickly retaliated against, he consolidates power in Slovakia with Bolshevik help and falls back due to the war against Romania and Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia quickly leaves the war, and a peace is signed shortly after with Romania, setting off the short lasting Hungarian Civil War, leading to the assassination of Mihaly Karoly, and the end result - Bela Kun being the leader of a new worker's state in Hungary. The war between the Sudeten Germans and the Czechs end up in the demise of the newly formed Czechoslovakia. The heavily nationalist Sudeten rebels. The governments of German-Austria and Czechoslovakia are yet to come to a democratic solution... In the midst of chaos in Germany, Nestor Makhno, the leader of the anarchist Free Territory is exiled to Germany by Trotsky, acting on the orders of Lenin. Makhno and his followers land in East Prussia and quickly revolt with the German anarchists forming a new Free Territory, in Germany.

1919, the Limerick Soviet is proclaimed in Ireland, along with many other local soviets, acting in the name of the newly formed IRA.

1921, what is the future of the world? Under what flag will China unite? What is the future of the newly formed states in Europe? What will happen after Lenin dies? How will the chaos in Germany result? Will we see the rise of the far-right in Europe? Only time will tell...

...AND AT LAST ENDS THE AGE OF CANT...

This is the mod and scenario I came up with a few months ago, many changes will be made to it, as this is not the end scenario and not yet fully done. It can not be downloaded yet, I have many plans with it, including adding hundreds and hundreds of events, creating a realistic enviroment and not just leaving it be after doing the map, creating new leaders, new countries, new ways to unfold the scenario.
