Fantastic timeline so far, really superb maps. A true thripolar world war like this is amazing to see, and I predict it will be an absolute catastrophe... no way it will end any time soon. You have your work cut out for you! ;)

Without Lenin, Bolsheviks and other socialists, moderates, will unify around the Constituent Assembly, which will be led by the Socialist-Revolutionary Party. The Whites may be brought into the new parliamentary government relatively rapidly except for a few holdouts.

Here is a possibility I see: the Intermarium is formed following amazing success by the Pilsudski adminsitration, it embraces democratic reform to stave off independence movements, Dmowski's followers are spurned and exiled, multiculturalism is embraced, as is the practice of investing massive...

It was an awesome series. I actually made a few maps of the Long Earth a while back.

I removed the plagiarism I could find. The second half of the timeline is entirely EBR's original work. If anyone finds more offending text, PM me and I'll edit the thread.

Good job catching that. I claim no credit for the timeline, but EBR did say I could post the thread for him.

This seems like it would result in a timeline with a similar divergence as another scenario I recall, in which public investment in renewable energy begins in the 1970s in a world with a liberal democratic chinese superpower. You could look there for possible PODs...

Epilogue Part I Going into the first elections of the Third Republic, American politics were heavily balkanized. The old two-party system that had prevailed prior to the Great Depression had been badly weakened prior to the war and then seemingly smashed. Under the new system it appeared...

The End of the Second World War Hitler’s co-belligerence with Stalin was never destined to last. First there was the fact that the primary Fascist alliance was the Anti-Communist Alliance and the Fascist countries were universally opposed to Communism. Then there was the fact that the Soviet...

Appomattox Court House America was exhausted. For five and a half years the country had been at war with itself. Its infrastructure lay in disrepair, its cities in ruins, its fields burned or fallow. The Mississippi River was so polluted with corpses that its water was undrinkable. No one...

Huey Long’s Last Act By March of 1942 White America was disintegrating under a three-part onslaught from the Popular Front, the Red Oak Pact, and the Browns. With Montgomery under siege from the Red Guard, the White government had relocated south to Tallahassee, Florida where it seemed that...

Dominoes- 1941 Hitler’s generals spent the winter of 1940-41 preparing. They had learned their lesson- or rather the Fuhrer had learned his lesson- about launching invasions that were unprepared. Knowing that Spain and the Pyreenes line that protected it would be a hard nut to crack, the...

Tube Alloys- 1938-1941 The Chrysanthemum and the Bear- 1940-1941 Japan entered the year 1940 with growing confidence and grim optimism. They had faced defeats in northern Manchuria and Inner Mongolia, but they had begun retaking territory in the most recent offensive. “Once the intervention in...

From August 24th to September 24th 1789, the House's version of the amendment did specifically read that there should not be "less than one Representative for every fifty thousand persons." Did they have a good reason to change the text? It seems like they did. That doesn't mean that they...

You just need the article to be ratified with slightly different wording: "... nor less than one Representative for every fifty thousand persons." That's how it was written originally, and yes, it's bad writing but it would have gotten the job done. Congress would still probably take over its...

No one has mentioned the first article of the Bill of Rights? It was almost ratified and would have assured a representative in the House for every fifty thousand inhabitants. The House could have swollen to more than six thousand elected officials, the largest legislative body in the world, if...

The True North Strong And Free- 1940 White America had been hit by a trifecta of body blows. First the Japanese invasion cost it legitimacy and popularity in the eyes of the American public. Militarily the invasion injured the Whites as well; although the White Warlords Colonel Francis Briggs...

The Japanese Invasion and the Hunting Season- 1940 The Japanese Invasion of America pushed the empire’s war-making capability to the limit. Happening as it did at a time when the better of part of the Japanese military was tied down fighting the Red Army in Manchukuo and eastern Siberia, the...

Operation East- 1939 By early 1939 the Whites, the Reds, and the Blues were all fielding armies of one million men or more, and the Continentals half-a-million. The Reds had more industry than anyone else, and with the assistance of Soviet military advisors had three Mechanized Corps, six Tank...

The War In The East- 1932-1939 On August 10st, 1939 a dark-haired man with a nose like a mountain sent a telegram from Tokyo to Stockholm, Sweden. The telegram was ostensibly inquiring into the details of a rumored economic deal between Sweden and Japan involving the sale of “19 heavy...
