Just Outer Mongolia, the parts of the region that we consider Mongolia today. Sinkiang (today called Xinjiang) is also now a Soviet Republic. As an aside, that means the Islamic population of the Soviet Union is expanded by a few million at least, if I remember correctly.

Then yes, we should be past TTL's WW2-analogue by the end of this year. Next update will be up soon, I'm just experiencing a bit of writer's block.

Apparently we alternatehistory guys are suckers for environmentalism :p

I'll be honest, I kinda wanted Dole to make it too, but I thought I'd be pushing it if after 16 years of Democratic rule and 8 years of a moderate Republican (and because of the lack of Reagan and the Democratic administrations McCain is more moderate ITTL than IOTL) the conservatives didn't try...

The year in the timeline (1934) or the year IRL? If the latter, absolutely. My goal is to be around 1950 or so by the time school starts back up for me (early September). At the very least I'd like to be at 1940.

Well, that's it folks! Thank you for reading this TLIAD that turned into a TLIAW! Who wins in 2016? I echo the sentiment of my narrator. Who knows?

"A zebra does not change its spots" - Al Gore With the war in Libya and the steadily stagnating economy, liberals were up in arms. They had lost control of the Presidency, and now look at what had happened! Of course, the liberal vote was hardly the most powerful voting block in America, and...

In OTL we've had 3 :p

"Remember the words of Chairman Mao: 'It's always darkest before it's totally black'" - John McCain By the time the 2004 elections had rolled around, the Democratic Party had ruled the White House for 16 years. While the Democratic Presidents had been popular, there was still a feeling of...

It begins.

That does tend to put a damper on things, doesn't it?

If you're gonna have a Democratic President after Dukakis, Brown in my opinion is the most sensible. Clinton could also work, of course, but that would just be boring.

I thought Medina got nuked too?

"Inaction may be the biggest form of action" - Jerry Brown With the successful liberal Presidency of Michael Dukakis coming to an end, the Democrats needed a candidate who could raise the liberal banner and win yet another term. The Democratic Primary of 1996 would result in a battle between...

No, it's just that I made this way more detailed and researched than I had originally planned, mostly cause it's fun. The next one will be up soon.

"Like a good general, I treated everyone who wasn't with me as against me." - Michael Dukakis The 1988 primary season saw the split between the conservative and moderate Republicans continue to grow, with Vice President Howard Baker facing off against the avowedly conservative Senator Bob...

"I do not like broccoli. And I haven't liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I'm President of the United States and I'm not going to eat any more broccoli." - George H.W. Bush In the hours after the shooting, nobody had the full information on what exactly was...

It's possible that it's pneumonic plague, but antibiotics would treat that unless it's engineered to be resistant. So, assuming it's not (and it very well may be) engineered for antibiotics-resistance, that rules out bacteria. So that means either a virus or parasite. I'm gonna go ahead and...

I can't help myself but put the election date instead of inauguration date. You're right, it should, but I'm just crazy :p

"Whatever starts in California unfortunately has an inclination to spread" - Jimmy Carter When President Jimmy Carter said the United States was experiencing a crisis of confidence, he wasn't kidding. His own Presidency had been a disaster. The economy was in so much of a slump that a new word...
