Bump! Love the TL hope to see more! :D

Longer Spanish-American War leads to America acquiring the Canary Islands, later become a state.

I'm looking for a BAM of the 1500s if there's any floating about.

It's pretty ASB. I'm surprised the most by the 10 million soldiers in the AEF, but then to go on and claim a European Union makes this pretty unbelievable

I've seen a TL with an independent Michigan following a bloody Toledo War, and the Brits were planning on making a Native American buffer state in the GL region. There's two

Florida probably could have been taken as well. If Britain takes territory from Spain in the Seven Years War, we may see more Spanish involvement in the ARW...

Yes, some of us still do :D

I agree with your feelings about the comments While the protectorate in my TL may be too big, I feel one IOTL Wisconsin and the UP could work. You have natural boundaries which could serve as borders, and Lake Michigan and Superior serve as a natural block to settlers moving west.

I think Jackson's takeover of Florida will be the best lead-off to it. Maybe actually have the Spanish declare war and fight for Florida, Jackson may get his frigate for Cuba

Better farming equipment following the turn of the century would make slavery obsolete, you probably would see the beginning of Confederate emancipation around the same time.

But that would take away naval forces bottling up German naval forces, a weaken force could be broken by the German navy depending on how many ships leave. With Italy in the game, the pursuit of the Goben and Breslau might be different.

I agree with this POD the most. While Bulgaria is not really on the Allies side for most of the war, it seems quite plausible.

I think you're throwing this out without thinking about it. They were the third most common rifle in the war, with the Union purchasing 226,924 and the Confederacy buying 100,000. The first few shipments were regarded as better than enfields, but later shipments went down in quality. With more...

Maybe if Britain and Spain don't pull out of the French Expedition in Mexico in the early 1860s, they'll be preoccupied with the war there, and possibly the public anger over the expedition. Too preoccupied to worry about issues in South Africa?

The purple area is the area claimed by both America and the British, but i'll fix up the borders to better follow natural boundaries. The Louisiana issue is more of where I put the line and i'll fix that. Northern Maine did not see much fighting in the War of 1812, and Ohio was already a state...
