Okay, I know that you are not changing the name. But I do agree with people it seems like they would even if only to change it back to USA as a way of trying to disown the destitute legacy. Just saying my bit on that issue. Lord Chancellor eh? Sounds good, wonder who will be the first. And...

I would not call myself an expert by any measure, but you can have my thoughts for whatever they are worth. For France I expect it is already doing better than OTL. Not only was the 1830 Revolution avoided but a precedent for responding to conflict with reform was set. The monarchist right no...

Well I do like baseball even if I prefer gridiron football. That's how the cookie crumbles I guess.

One thing I am hoping for is more info on General Taylor. That family's ITTL saga looks well set up yo be one of the more intriguing political military dynasties in the USA ITTL.

Well Mac is in power. Now to see how well he works with Congress and what he does with the presidency.

What? No in-universe reactions to Patton's death?

And now a Vignette created with permission by the Author: THE BUSINESS OF EXPANSION: If you took care of your shop your shop would take care of you, that was a saying Gontran Desmarsis had from his father who had it from his and so on back to France herself. It had seen his family's store...

… Perfect.

That is a much bigger Florida than I expected.

So the Florida war has come. I am guessing the pact Hernandez made was for America to get the old border back at least? But I am guessing Jackson will alter the agreement into annexation. For this war New England and Britain are both preoccupied overseas with their wars. And for the moment...

For Britain it seems likely thy are due to trip on something. They have been rolling quite a few sixes. Even though I appreciate them having to trim back in their colonialism some as shown in New Zealand. Similar for the Habsburg Empire, while i am glad they are doing well, it seems like the...

Well things continue with Russia vs the West. i still don't feel much drama as Russia's defeat still seems foregone, even if the shape is up in the air. I trust though you have something in store, even if this war ends up as the set up to said thing. I wonder if the Tian Dynasty will try to...

On the other hand such a policy might cause the Russians come down harder on said minorities.

I was thinking more "This rabble will not have the honor of killing me," kind of deal. Or maybe Aerys the Mad getting his way. But you stoke my interest in Jackson's fate ever more. It will be intresting to see what role the Samurai will play in this war.

My current guess for Jackson's fate is that he will have a stroke or something during the Mexican War and his VP will have to step up. But Jackson's condition will trigger the Ameican People's Movement, with Jackson ultimately manages to shoot himself rather than let himself be taken by the...

Well for Sweden I feel like its run of good fortune may be ending. You have been dropping hits Russia will pull something off; and it may be Sweden will step up only to gets its teeth kicked in as part of that. As for Japan I think it will be a draw of sorts. The situation in Europe seems...

The population difference is a good reminder of why the union is regarded as the dreaded sill by many on the continent. Though a good portion of that 11 million would be slaves. Though by the same extension Louisiana has a portion of its 1.2 million as slaves too. Dang, I didn't realize how...

Barring a major upset I can't see this ending well for Russia. It seems set on how badly they will lose. Also Austria, can't say I like the name Danubia, seems to have had an oddly good number of outcomes lately. I am guessing bad luck will start to darken their door again soonish. How goes...

I am wondering how well the militarization of Louisiana will go over with the populace. Higher taxes are likely in play to fund it and introducing a new to the region idea like mandatory conscription will raise hackles. Combine that with the fact the new king is not as popular as his father...

I'd say the initial thrusts would be attacking French Sakhalin and the Ryukyu Kingdom. After that attempting to Blockade Taiwan might be in the cards. I think Japan would be inclined to honor their alliance. Their list of potential allies is thin, and stands to grow thinner if they re seen to...
