The Kaiser hits the griddy and then fucking dies [HOI4 Kaiserreich]

EVENT SUMMARY: 

This will be heavily themed based on the events of the fictional alternate timeline of Kaiserreich, in which Germany and the Central Powers won the First World War and thus dictated the geopolitical sphere of the following decade. This event may be a one-off or a repeated affair, depending on interest. However, to prevent some of the typical chaos of HOI4 games, there will be some guidelines for behavior in the event to assist with the flow of events. These are not intended to force a particular outcome or victor in the game's conclusion, and if anyone has a suggestion for additional rulings, please feel free to make suggestions in the comments.
