Berlin, 1930: Germany Under the Red Flag

What if history had taken a different turn? What if Germany had not embraced Nazism, but raised the red flag instead? How would that have changed the fate of Europe and the world?

A Chinese soul from the future unexpectedly transmigrates to Berlin during the Great Depression of 1930, taking over the body of Karl, a young member of the German Communist Party.

With the Nazi demon on the rise, the KPD trapped by the theory of "social fascism" and treating the Social Democrats as its primary enemy, and the shadow of concentration camps looming over Europe just six years away, Karl uses his knowledge of history to embark on a thorny path against fate: building a red Germany.

The newborn "Red Germany" struggles to survive amid the old establishment, military ambitions, and Western suspicions, trying to walk a tightrope on the brink of war through neutrality and development.

But can the tide of history really be changed so easily? Stalin's expansionist ambitions in the East, Mussolini's restless designs in Southern Europe, and the wavering appeasement of Britain, France, and the West ultimately plunge Europe once more into the furnace of war.

When Soviet tanks cross the border under the banner of "liberation," and America's "Devil's Gift" demands an exorbitant price, Karl and his comrades realize that they have averted the Nazi catastrophe, but must now wage an even more desperate and lonely war to defend their republic.

This is a story about ideals, survival, and the price to be paid.

It is the struggle of an ordinary person trying to shift the wheels of history, only to discover that their momentum can crush everything.

Beneath the red flag, should they stay true to their original ideals, or make a deal with the devil? Should they win the war, or lose their souls?
