What exactly did he die from so early? I forgot. BTW would AH break up after the war or after Karl I's death? I have as probable countries that would result being Austria, Hungary, and Bosnia. Croatia maybe, but Czechs would most likely remain under Austrians for a while. Of course I am no expert in Eastern European claims and politics.Karl I died in 1922. He might have lived longer, had it not been for the deposition...
Would Germany's colonies gain independence like other empires'? Does anyone want to suggest what actions they would have taken against the colony, or would they just let them declare independence (unlikely IMO)?
