For the record, "Kaiserreich" is one word in German.
But yes, that's probably the best suggestions. When will we start moving the examples?

Agree with naming it Kaiserreich, or possibly Der Kaiserreich (did I use the right article there?).
No, it's Das Kaiserreich. "Der" is masculine; "reich" is neutrum.

Much appreciated.

Name sounds ok, though to make it official, we should probably swap crowners
Hi
Calling this one for the proposed fixes.
Hmm...does anybody have plans to start a YKTTW for The Theme Park Version of the Kaiserreich?

Kaiserreich
has been launched.
I think this trope already exists as Prussia.

Hm... I think we need another TRS for that thread. Prussia would be better off as a Useful Notes page, while Kaiserreich is the Theme Park Version.

While Prussian stereotypes are a big part of the Kaiserreich thing, Prussia is just a substate of the Kaiserreich.

So... anyone willing to contribute to the YKTTW?

I would, but since my knowledge of the subject is basically zero....

Okay, the solution for this trope generally seems to be agreed upon, so would it be possible for someone to change the clocking symbol to the star?

Nay, we still need a name.

Everyone seems to agree on Kaiserreich, but if you really want, here's another crowner.

Is anyone still interested in this?

Hi
The alt titles crowner is hooked.
Gentleman Troper!
I thought "keep as is" was not allowed on an alt.titles crowner? We already had a crowner that decided the name was to be changed.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
Yeah, that doesn't sound like a valid option.

Whoops. Well... there really wasn't any alternative proposed, and I thought there should be another option. Sorry about that. Can a mod remove it?
Also, here's the new description I made:
- Pickelhauben.
- Arrogant aristocrats, duelling scars and monocles optional.
- An all-pervasive military.
- Gratuitous German. Or something that sounds like it. Or something that some people think sounds like it.
- Confusion as to whether this is the Kaiserreich or the Nazis.
- Vaguely WWI-ish technology, especially ugly box-shaped tanks, U-Boats, and, of course, zeppelins.
- Great big black eagles and Iron Crosses everywhere.
Also, since Prussia should be more of a Useful Notes page, would anyone object to me moving the examples from there to here? I think I'll start up a TRS thread for that when we're done here.
And how about this for a page image?

Crown Description:
Fatherland is currently defined as the Fantasy Counterpart Culture of Prussia / Imperial Germany. One issue is that other fantasy counterpart cultures are simply listed on Fantasy Counterpart Culture; sister tropes like Eagleland are simply about "exaggerated stereotypes of a country". Another issue is that Fatherland is the name of
several works, and numerous countries besides Germany use it to refer to their country instead.
Yep, I like that.
