Politics of W3 can easily be interpreted as a World War 2 reenactment
Radovid and Redania=Nazi Germany.Radovid is 1)Insane 2)Racist to the bone who commits genocides on non-humans(especially after he is successfull) 3)Tactical Genius. This could be an accurate description of Hitler.
Dijkstra=Soviet Union/Stalin.Heavy Indrustrial evolution, political assasinations, rulling through fear.
Nilfgaard= Western Allies/USA. Mostly USA. Sapkowsky used the Roman Empire and it's Pax Romana as his model for Nilfgaard. In modern politics this can be paralleled with USA, and it's Pax Americana as Kennedy put it(negatively).
Temeria=Poland. Heaviest casualties overall, completely destroyed by the war, and the major point of interest of East vs West on the aftermath of WW2.
Of course historically USA was never the initial agressor, but still, Radovid attacked and took over his neighbouring nations. I guess if we want the historically correct ending, that is the Dijkstra ending, since the Soviets are the ones who did the most by a long shot when it came to defeating the nazis, and formed a heavy industrialised (second rate) superpower until the 90's.
Judging by the fact that the ending of W3 have a clear bad/abit better/clearly better scaling, i have to assume that CDPR are very happy to be living in the americanised capitalist world that gives alot of money
(don't take this too seriously).
