Don't forget:
* Mass genocidal South Africa which makes OTL Rwanda look like a day in the park
* The totalitarian regime in israel that is best friends with south africa.
* The constant terrorism in India, and the brutal repression of the Islamic activists who suffer under a Hindu nationalist government
* The blight of colonialism still strong and alive elsewhere in Africa
* The culture of Cuba stamped out of existence and replaced by America, Inc.
* Panama, Suez Canal owned by foreign powers
* Communism is alive and well in the Soviet Union, as nationalists are brutally suppressed
* European integration and cooperation is decades behind
* Fascism and Nazism is a legitimate political ideology
* Poverty still reigns in many portions of Latin America, Africa, and Asia
* On average, it is more expensive to live in the West TTL than OTL. Very little cheap outsourcing means manufacturing remains in the west, but at a much higher labour cost, meaning goods are more expensive. Luxuries are more rare, TVs are not as big, computers not as cheap, ect.
* Indonesia is a mess
* Don't get me started on race relations in Australia
My goal was never to make a utopia, Our Fair Country has it's own share of doom and gloom, just like the real world. When I get in a grumpy mood I should write more about the negative parts of the world.
