- Japan does not gain a foothold in China and the Pacific Islands.
- The multitude of European border disputes and ethnic tensions created by Versallies doesn't happen.

- Deutsches Reich continues their evolution into a constitutional monarchy. Historically achieved during October 1918, too late to matter.
- Hungary peacefully splits off from Austria when KuK Franz Joseph dies during 1916.

- A huge amount of European capital is available for economic development rather then wasted fighting WWI.
