Heh, just wondering. I mean, if I conquer my world with Japan, I want the history of the Star Empire of the Rising Suns to reflect this.

Setting aside that this is silly and will not happen -
I don't think it really follows that a reasonable result of HoI would be predictive of history 500+ years later in the age of stellar empires. I mean, who would have called China becoming one of the most influential world powers from 1945? Or the soviet union being gone without there having been another world war? Even the extent to which the European colonial empires fell apart / transformed might have been a surprise. And that's just 70 years ago. Now, actual one side legitimately conquers the world results like you quote... well, I don't think arguing whether it's reasonable for them to remain steady state is even a particularly meaningful question, as they're pretty absurd to begin with. Even Rome's period of dominance was only a few centuries, though, and that was just regional.

This. We need at least a Cold War era game and a Modern era (post 1990) for this too work. To convert a HoI game makes no sense...

I don't really think he was questioning the plausibility of this happening as a real alternate history.
Actually answering the OP, there won't be an option to "convert" the save, but I'm sure you can create your race/nation to reflect the outcome you imagine
The great game for the 2300 AD setting. That will take you from HOI IV to domination of the galaxy.

Just make a custom human species with Japanese features called The Empire of the Rising Star.
