1939: Stalin impreganates a random woman who gives birth to an orc. However there is much controversy... Trotsky accused stalin of stealing Lenin's sperm when he was in his death bed... implying that Lenin is the real father (also part orc). Stalin retaliated to this accusation by having Trotsky murdered in 1941 - Pick to the head.

1934 - Assassination of Dollfuss, the Austrian Chancellor, by Austrian Nazis. Italy and Germany have a bit of a fight over Austria's independence. Italy takes Austria's side. Hitler realises he has to be on good terms with Italy before he can establish an Anschluss (unification of Germany and Austria).

1941
Japan moves troops into southern Indochina.
USA place total ban on oil exports to Japan and Japan gets all angry because they've only got about a year and half's worth of oil left.
Japan bombs Pearl Harbour on Sunday 7th December in an attempt to keep the US out of the war for two years.
Roosevelt declares war the next day.
By this stage Japan is quickly taking over South East Asia (they entered Thailand the day after Pearl Harbour I think).
The Fall of the Philippines.

1942
The Fall of Singapore.
The Fall of Burma.
The Fall of the Dutch East Indies.
The Doolittle Raid.
The Battle of Coral Sea.
The Battle of Midway.
Guadalcanal (August 1942 - February 1943 I think).

It's not obvious Conflict in the Pacific was my favourite topic.

1922
