Had to google the place, but it seems a fairly out if the way place in rough terrain, so defense should be possible, perhaps playing larger neighbours against each other, which could work rather well until Italian unification...then they would be out of luck. OOC did not have to google it...

Except the Luftwaffe bombed Britain's cities and town levelling some to the ground (I've been to Coventry - there was barely anything left) so Göring would have had ultimate responsibility for that at least. Unless he thought bombing civilian targets wasn't a war crime.

Yeah... Sigh... Unless he still gets involved with plotting and Monty et al speak up for him at trial. He honestly wouldn't deserve such a sentence, but I can see it happening.

I'd like to say West German Government and a strong figure who would help to rehabilitate Germans somewhat in the eyes of the rest of the world. But I'm not sure how possible or likely it would be, really depends how and why he survives, and how clear he can make the seperation of the Nazi...

What exactly could they convict him for? What evidence would they have? Am actually interested, as my first reaction was death most likely, but then I wondered what you could actually convict him for. He was a propagandist with repellent views but did he kill anyone? Was he directly...

As far as I was aware Low and High Dutch were used until the renaissance, for The Netherlands and 'Germans' respectively. Then after the Dutch gained independence, the term Dutch came to mean just them to differentiate them from the others. Therefore a new term had to be used and the latin name...

Water boarding - surfing Handball - a game played mainly with your feet. (A variant of an original game played with the hands. Confusingly also called Handball) Cookies - cupcakes (from Dutch for small cake) Dutch - German

I think it's usually best to go by what they described themselves as. That's just me though. Otherwise you would have to call Americans English/British because that was what the original colonists were. And just because they say they are something else doesn't make it so. (Which means...

Do border dispute adjustments count? Maine/New Brunswick maybe too along with British Columbia etc. So ignoring the premise of the question (how unique America is in this regard - how much territory has Canada lost?) and answering the OP; losses of territory may lead the ideas of divine...

The UN may not make decolonisation a priority if 3 of the p5 were against it. America may want colonies for destroyers in WW2. Other empires may survive. Maybe, if only to not destabilise US colonies/territories (whatever the euphemism might be)

In a similar vein to Superman. Astronaut - a sailor who uses only the stars to navigate. Argonaut - an Argentinian sailor

A lot of what you say I don't dispute, certainly not the denigration of the CSA. The issue I have is that restricting one side to the most unfavourable terms possible, while allowing the other to have the best terms possible, hardly makes your case. The CSA fighting on home soil would have...

Yeah. I assume the stress would originally have been there anyway. Always seemed odd to stress the COM. Physician - a physicist. Physicist - a physician.

Well why is the theoretical battle in America? Because the CSA couldn't possibly perform in another theatre, the British could. You are presumably pitching the entire CSA army (which is the largest it could probably get as they were in a war for their existence) against a Britain in no such...

Inflammable - fire proof.

Whoever did it, him not being dead can't hurt the situation. Murdering a close relative of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh hardly made the likelihood of a peaceful solution greater. Specific results I'm not too sure of.

Patriot - someone who campaigns for fathers rights over his children.

Depends how you define nation, but if you mean independent state... Then yes. You can. Ask Kurds, Basques, Chechens, Catalans etc etc If you mean indefinitely then that's possible (as predicting the future is impossible to any degree of certainty), but the amount of secessionist movements...

Communist - someone who believes strongly in community and works hard to foster such a feeling in those around them.

England sends all Puritans to America. They multiply a lot. They become the majority. May not be all that likely. Though allowing dissidents and religious minorities to go to America arguably led to the revolution so if you enforce deportation then perhaps you get a more fundamentalist...
