Okay, how about Germany from 1918 to 1939?
- Time period - Like I've said, Germany from 1918, or perhaps a bit before to 1939. City locations could include Berlin, Munich, the Ruhr and parts of the Rhineland. Areas of France, such as Versailles or Alsasce & Lorraine may also be included, as these were important political areas at this time.
- Historical Events - Just as Connor is present at the signing of the declaration of independance, our new Assassin could be present at the signing of the Treaty of Versailles . He could also witness: the Spartacist rebellion ; the Kapp Putsch ; the Munich Putsch ; the remilitarisation of the Rhineland ; both the failed and the succeeded Anschluss with Austria ; the seizing of the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia ; and the signing of the Nazi-Soviet pact ; among other events.
- Historical Actors - Obviously Adolf Hitler first springs to mind when thinking of this time period. Other characters could include: Stalin ; Benito Mussolini ; Georges Clemenceau ; Woodrow Wilson ; David Lloyd-George ; Kaiser Wilhelm II ; General von Ludendorf ; Ernst Rohm ; and Neville Chamberlain ; among others.
- Reasoning - I believe this setting would work as it was a time of tumultuous political upheaval and change both in Germany and in Europe as a whole. It would also be very interesting to follow Hitler's rise to power, as well as to learn how most people felt towards the rise of Communism in Russia. Also, as this is not a wartime period, despite it being a modern setting, it would not be too similar to other games, and very few games have actually done this period rather than World War 2. (It would also sort of help with the History work I'm doing for my GCSEs...)
