WHILE NO ONE could dare even to suggest what the results of a gen
eral European war might be it i* interesting to indulge in speculation.
The changes are that the general war will take
THE RESULTS OF place if any one of the national combinations be
THE WAR lieves that it can defeat the other surely. .The
only fact which will prevent war is the fear on
both sides that the result would be doubtful, for defeat in such a war would
most likely mean the reduction of some of the countries involved from their
position as leading nations.
Should the navy of Germany succeed in defeating the navy of Great
Britain, which is unlikelv of course, it would undoubtedly mean the loss to
Great Britain of many of her colonies, and it would probably mean her re
duction to a second class status in the rank of nations.
The defeat of Germany by France would certainly mean the loss of Al
sace-Lorraine. and it may be taken as certain that France would go much
further than regaining her lost provinces because the debacle of ’70 still
rankles in her bosom and the price which she had to pay then would surely
be recovered with interest.
The defeat of Russia would hardly mean much more than the loss of ter
ritory on her border but it would mean that Austria would secure the upper
hand in the Balkans and that she would henceforth be the supreme arbiter
in questions governing all the Balkan states. It would, no doubt, also mean
that Russia would be confined to the Black Sea and that the Dardanelles
would be still kept closed to her ships. It would probably be impossible for
any enemy or combination of enemies to reach the heart of the Czar’s do
minions. In this Napoleon himself failed. It seems to be possible that
Russia’s defeat would offer a very tine opportunity to Poland and Finland
and who knows that all the Scandinavian peninsula could not put an end
forever to the Russian bugaboo which constantly haunts it. #
The defeat of France would undoubtedly be used by Germany to render
forever any danger from that quarter. Austria’s defeat might mean the dis
memberment of the empire and the independence of Hungary and its separ
ation.
These, of course, are obvious possibilities but who can tell those which
are not obvious? Who can tell what could come out of the chaos of the
great powers of the world gone blood-mad ?
