If I recall, the uniforms of the Belgian Army in France in 1943-44 is similar to that of the US Army, leading to them being initially mistaken for Americans whenever they liberated a new area.
I don't think people win with Carter often at all, quite the opposite.
There are three pitfalls, namely the two debates and Eagle Claw. In order to have a chance, you have to get it right in all three, and even then it's no guarantee that you will actually win the electoral vote.
EDIT: And...
Oh god, and Ted is his Robin... holy nattering nabobs.
That's the thing: even if McGovern succeeds in 1976, there's still 1980 after that, and who knows what sorts of events foreign and domestic will occur that will affect that race and the eventual Democratic nominee. Even if McGovern himself...
Their behavior in the First Sino-Japanese War was marred by the Port Arthur massacre, though afterwards during the Boxer Rebellion, Russo-Japanese War, WWI, and the Siberian Intervention (though they supported Roman "the Mad Baron" von Ungern-Sternberg, who was... quite the character) their...
Whenever I think of Gettysburg, this (alleged) quote of Gen. George Pickett comes to mind, in answer to Lee when the latter ordered him to organize his division for the defense after the curbstomp the Confederates had suffered in attacking the well-fortified Union positions on Cemetery Ridge...

I copied this map from @Yes 's excellent McGoverning TL, where he demonstrated a...
I also think that in a world where the war was averted that France wouldn't do as much colonizing. They have Algeria and a strong presence in Indochina, and those are their biggest holdings. In future they might extend their control over Tunisia and Morocco, as well as in Indochina to the area...
In any case, Japan won't do anything until their last aircraft carriers are finished. Without them marching into Indochina, the US embargo won't come at least for a while. Even so, the war in China is a constant sucking wound for them, and sooner or later they will have to decide whether to pull...
With France still in the fight, Japan stays out of Indochina, which OTL caused the US to freeze Japanese assets and establish their oil and gasoline embargo, spurring Japan to plan for the attack on Pearl Harbor and their southern invasions.
French turn out to have been developing Übers, but as they're French they're not called Übers but something else appropriate in French. Because they were still in development they couldn't intervene in battles like Sedan and others, but they show up at Paris on January 25th, 1871, whence they...
