No one, not even the propagandized German populace, believed the Gleiwitz stunt (and they would have supported invading Poland to retake Danzig and the Corridor regardless). Nothing changes.

A Depression in a CP victory would benefit the left, not the far-right (who wouldn't have revanchist/stab-in-the-back myth anger), and be directed against the Prussian aristocracy. Probably a SPD/Zentrum government that enacts universal suffrage and political reform to reduce Prussian power and...

A lot of Cubans would still immigrate to the US (possibly even more than IOTL given freedom of movement). Not as many in Miami, but there were still non-negligible communities in Miami and Tampa before 1959 IOTL. Probably even more in New York and possibly southern port cities like New Orleans...

This will be capped with an Anglo-French War over Fashoda, won't it?

Convention nominates Humphrey, who beats Goldwater anyway.

Good thing he wasn't Foreign Minister until 1916.

Far too strategically important for Britain to give it up.

Minor nitpick but I feel that Nixon would have carried Maine ITTL. It was a historically Republican state in the same vein as Vermont and New Hampshire and the presence of favorite Muskie on the Humphrey ticket was probably decisive (at a time where home states, especially in smaller states...

Was Rockefeller vs. Kennedy polled? The only states that Dukakis won by double digits were Iowa and Rhode Island (with Hawaii just below a 10% margin). I think Jackson would do disproportionately poorly in the Northeast, especially compared to Dukakis, so he would lose NY/MA/RI, but in Iowa...

Jesse Jackson as the Democratic nominee in 1988 against Bush is the honest answer, given how conservative/tough-on-crime the mood of the country was and how even a moderate technocrat like Dukakis was successfully smeared as a bleeding heart pinko.

To be fair, Kasich probably helped the Republican ticket in Ohio in both 00 and 04.

Read this all over the course of a couple hours, really interesting stuff. Can I infer that these were the electoral maps for 2000 and 2004?

Optimal seems like Clinton/Brown and Trump/Christie.

Doesn't matter if they don't have the fuel.

What happened to Rhodesia?

What would peace terms look like if Russia exited the war after the February Revolution without American aid? Would Germany impose terms as draconian as OTL Brest-Litovsk?

How could Japan's economic miracle have continued into the 1990s?

Keep the microstates. The alternative is insinuating that they don't exist at all.

Fairly certain it's just a mistake.

After the Civil War, the Democratic Party was never able to fully recover from its association with secessionism. Grover Cleveland (1884, 1892) and Woodrow Wilson (1912) were the only two Democrats to win presidential elections between 1860 and the party's final dissolution in 1955. Was this an...
