Interesting naval clash, the carriers seemed to play a pretty insignificant role. I'm curious to see if Nimitz takes the opportunity to pursue with the Lexington, though with the outcome of the first battle noone could blame him for playing cautious.
Awesome.
Let's go with Thomas Cooper, a moderately successful Lowcountry planter who won fame in the Revolutionary Wars as a colonel of SC militia, or something of the sort. Politically conservative and interested in preserving and extending the political and social power of the planter...
Fantastic updates, I'm curious to see if the South American war spreads north as well as to see how the American acquisition of North African lands pans out. If you ever get a chance and need a South Carolinian character, I'd be more than happy to volunteer.
Hehe, now I'm really intersted to see what happens.
I've just read through the whole timeline, very good work, quite interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing the Brits and Georgians try to muzzle ole Andy.
This is a very detailed, well researched and interesting timeline. I look forward to seeing where it goes, especially in regards to the Crimean War. Keep up the good work.
It was a possibility at certain points, most notably during the War of 1812 and the Hartford Convention, but it's doubtful all the states of the 'North' would have gone along. It's likely the New England states are the only ones which would have left the Union under such circumstances.
Very interesting start, I've always been interested in Ethiopian history myself so I'm quite intrigued to see where you take this. A solid Western style democracy in Africa or something else entirely?
