Here are some examples, read the full article below:
Europe. "The whole of continental Europe would be a corporate State under the Reich. . . . The United Kingdom would remain the heart of the British Empire, but it may be considered necessary by Empire people gradually to transfer various phases of authority to Canada as a more secure and aloof base." In other words, the British Isles would become a colony lying athwart Hitler's Europe.
Africa. "The whole of North Africa from the Strait of Gibraltar to Somaliland would be at the disposition of the Axis. . . . Certain British and other African colonies on the east and west coasts would come under German and Italian control. The Union of South Africa might be required to secure complete independence."
The Near East. "At what line in the southeast Germany would suspend its influence is problematical. . . . Equal access to the oil wells of Iraq and Iran would be an inevitable demand."
