The Homefront

While the enemies of the German Reich burned in the aftermath of war, having pushed their industry and agriculture to the edge all for the sake of a futile resistance. The fatherland prospered like never before.

Their economy largely guided by the state, and its ties to the military industrial complex had ballooned from the increased volume of output and sales, not only to their own armed force but also to their allies who had begun a process of standardization of equipment in line with the German Army for the sake of the ease of logistics.

And while Austro-Hungary was still feeling the heat of the balkans ready to ignite at a moment's notice into a great fire, the German Reich and Russian Empire were largely unaffected by the war.

Losses had been well below the replacement rate, and soldiers were routinely given leave to rest from the horrors of war, meanwhile the people flourished in their work, generating a large amount of wealth for the nation.
