Ok, apart from the fact that all TLs with a republican Britain need to be cleansed with fire, that was...interesting.
A mixed group of Free State and Transvaal Boers of the Senekal Commando and the Bloemhof Commando under the nominal command of C.R. de Wet beat the British 12th Lancers to the Paardeberg drift at the banks of the Modder River in February 1900. By winning the race to the drift and securing an unopposed crossing for the Free State and Transvaal commandos under Piet Cronje, the Boer vanguard at Paardeberg drift averts the encirclement and entrapment of the entire Boer force on the Western Frontier, which regroups to establish a defensive line at the Orange River well before the arrival of the British advance under Lord Roberts.

100 Soviet Rubles with Taras Shevchenko
IOTL in the last months of the USSR, there were projects of refusing to place Lenin on money and replace it with cultural figures of the republics. Here is what the head of the USSR State Bank Gerashchenko says:
"At that time, we had plans for issuing new bills with portraits of writers or military leaders representing different republics. In order to strengthen the Union. They would have placed Shevchenko and Khmelnitsky in addition to Pushkin and Suvorov. So that cash would support the unity of the country."
Minister of Finance, and then Prime Minister of the USSR Pavlov:
"At the first, preliminary stage of development and creation of money, we worked on the idea of drawings on banknotes. They used two directions: historical and literature. In other words, they decided to draw portraits of Pushkin, Tchaikovsky, Shevchenko, Nizami, Rustaveli and all of honored national historical events. This question has always caused difficulties, because it was necessary to observe national equality. "
Heres something from a story/project I'm working on. Might be in the Shared Worlds...
Its a picture of Alternate New Orleans... Appearing to be consumed by an explosion...
I assume you mean the black dome in the city, which isn't and explosion.
This is the picture I referenced when making this. That is what appears to be some sort of stadium (IDK what it actually is) and it isn't an explosion.
OOH ok, this was made in the space you see in the corners of worlda maps. This is supposed to replace those since they are usually black which is unappealing.
Who likes government flow charts? An alt-US Gov proposal I mocked up for the game Creation of a Nation. This is effectively what I would have proposed and takes some hints from many plans of OTL, including the Hamiltonian one, and the French/Roman Triumvirates. I also wanted to break the Presidential/Parliamentary dichotomy so ended up with this thing.
