|-
|1924
|Vladimir Lenin dies. After a struggle between his closest allies, he is succeeded at the head of the Soviet Union by Leon Trotsky.
|-
|1925
|Sun Yat-sen dies. A rivalry erupts between Chiang Kai-shek and Wang Jingwei for control over the Kuomintang party, which the latter eventually wins.
|-
|1926
|Emperor Taishō of Japan dies. During his reign, the democratic parties of Japan and the Imperial Diet had gained power, which they manage to hold on to throughout the reign of his successor, Emperor Shōwa.
|-
|1930s
|Germany intensifies collaboration with the Kuomintang of China to regain control of the country, while the Soviet Union supports Mao Zedong's revolutionaries with more and more involvement. Throughout the decades, China becomes the theatre of a proxy war between Hitler's Germany and Trotsky's USSR, while the rival local governments become increasingly reliant on their European supporters.

In Europe, Germany encroaches on more and more neighbouring territories in breach of the Treaty of Versailles, annexing Austria, the Sudetenland, and finally invading Czechoslovakia in 1938. The old western allies only issue a protest.
|-
|February 1938
|Adolf Hitler accuses Soviet forces of being directly responsible in an attack in Chengdu in which German officials were killed. He sends an ultimatum to the USSR, demanding they end their support for the Chinese revolutionaries.
|-
|March 1938
|Trotsky refuses the ultimatum. Hitler denounces an act of aggression and declares war on the Soviet Union on the 2nd of March, 1938. Apart from battles and raids in the Baltic Sea, Europe remains quiet for lack of a direct border between Germany and the USSR.
|-
|May 1938
|Germany sends an ultimatum to Lithuania for the annexation of the Klaipėda Region. Lithuania bends. The USSR perceives a threat in Germany's eastwards expansion and announces it would come to the defence of the Baltic nations. On the 26th of May, the Red Army crosses the borders of Estonia and Latvia. The West denounces this act.
|-
|June 1938
|Estonia and Latvia are occupied in a matter of weeks. The Red Army turns south to cross into Lithuania, where it meets German troops.
|-
|July 1938
|Germany sends an ultimatum to Poland, demanding the surrender of the territories ceded twenty years prior, and unilaterally reintegrates the Free City of Danzig on the morrow. When Poland fails to respond four days later, German troops cross into Polish Pomerania and, two days later, pierces through the whole of the border, marking the beginning of the second World War. France and the United Kingdom declare war on Germany. In the East, the Soviet Union invades Poland to meet German troops in its center.

The eastern half of France is overrun, leaving it open for conquest; Holland has been captured, along with the eastern half of Belgium, and a large part of the French army was caught in a pincer and encircled in Lorraine. The front once again devolves into a war of attrition with trenches, attacks and rebuttals, with France in a terrible position.
