Outward-looking USA (No Napoleonic Wars)
Basic POD
No Napoleonic Wars
Louisiana remains French
Central, South America and Florida remain Spanish
Caribbean
- Spanish, British, French, Dutch, Danish, Swedish
Haiti ? Not sure
POD maybe Marengo 1796
- Napoleon, Desaix etc are dead
European powers defeat France
French Restoration
Now, at this time the USA is bounded by the Mississippi in the West
This still leaves plenty to do
Lots of Indians in that area
Lots of areas awaiting settlement
By early-mid 19th century there are a couple of choices
- war with France or Britain or Spain
- look outward
What would it take to get this USA heavily involved in Africa ?
