Been busy! Well we do have an angry Nazi to deal with. 3 major conferences in the space of 2 years! Not much is it? But enough.
The Tehran Conference: They code named it "Eureka"! What are they, six? I sent our new chap, Mr Winston Churchill. A competent lad, might even win us the war. He was with Joseph Stalin, Germany upset him in 1941 with the whole invasion thing, and Franklin D. Roosevelt. This meant the 2 greatest superpowers in the world! And us... Ah. We worked on setting up a second front in France and began to concoct strategies to put Germany back in it's place. Not gonna be easy.
The Yalta Conference: Codenamed "Argonaut Conference". Much cooler, well as far as a political conference can be. Same three lads, Stalin, Roosevelt and the good old very very British Winston Churchill. Not much excitement overall but they all had a nice chat and discussed "Europe's post-war reorganisation". Sounds fun doesn't it... We established UN and split the American/ Soviet Spheres of influence to East and West. This should boost relations but I couldn't help but notice some tension between Staling and Roosevelt but as far as I'm concerned, if I'm getting what I want... They can argue all they like.
Potsdam Conference: Didn't get a code name this time but maybe it would be best to forget it.This time 2 new faces. Truman, the new US President, and Atlee, the new British Prime minister. We finally defeated Germany! And we gathered to decide on a fate but sadly it seems that Truman and Stalin can't get along... I think I worked out what was wrong though, here I go: The Soviet Union had gained lots of land and, despite claiming it was "defensive", seemed very aggressive. Britain and America had new leaders, a new slate should be present... But instead all the good relations had gone but communist and capitalist views clashed. Those damn Americans with their freedom freedom freedom, so annoying. Despite these problems many things were established at this conference including:
- Prosecution of Nazi War Criminals.
- War Reparations... AGAIN.
- German military and industrial strength crippled.
- Poland given it's independence back.
Anyhow back to being England and all. Maybe it's all over now, but the judging from the hatred between Truman and Stalin... I fear not.
