    Howard Baker instead of William Rehnquist

    (6) Who replaces Baker in the Senate? The recently-elected Governor at the time was Winfield Dunn, a Republican. Some possible candidates who jump out to me are Lamar Alexander (a former staffer for Baker, Dunn's campaign manager, and OTL the unsuccessful Republican gubernatorial candidate in...

    Alternate names for California?

    Utopia, after the Thomas More story? California's a big state - there's no guarantee that it'll all be one region like OTL. You could easily use multiple of these names in the same TL for different regions.

    DBWI: Johnson gets the US involved in Vietnam

    I do think that it might have prevented the pro-war backlash (which, contra the OP, was really more a creation of the '70s than the '60s - certainly there were groups like Students for a Democratic Planet on the interventionist left and the Minutemen on the right in the 1960s, but they didn't...

    AHC: Create a large left-wing (constitutional) monarchist movement in a country

    Greece after the junta? It’d probably be a liberal movement as opposed to a leftist one per se, but if Constantine were more involved in the Metapolitefsi and Karamanlis less so, you might see the left back Constantine as a check on New Democracy.

    AHC: Have a US state adopt a different parliamentary system

    Sort of? Mostly we just centralize power in the Lieutenant Governor.

    AHC: Have a US state adopt a different parliamentary system

    I seem to recall that towards the end of Reconstruction a number of Southern states (e.g. Texas) drastically reduced the powers of the Governor in favor of the Legislature (and, in Texas’s case, the Lieutenant Governor). If they had gone farther, you could probably see parliamentary systems down...

    WI: Reagan the Moderate Republican

    The cheap answer is that if Reagan isn’t a conservative he probably doesn’t run, either because he doesn’t raise his stature by running against Ford in 1976 or because he gets lost in the shuffle between Bush and Baker and someone on the conservative wing (e.g. John Connally, John Danforth, Bob...

    AHC: American-born head of state/head of government in a European country

    Probably ASB, but maybe if some shenanigans happen and Thomas Paine somehow comes to power during the French Revolution? There's also the easy solution of having an American general lead an occupation in Europe, for whatever reason. A European Douglas MacArthur scenario.

    Not quite. But there’s much more robust immigration, which means that the already-large Texasdeutsch population gets significantly larger. And when the Texian Revolution kicks off in the 1890s, Germans and their descendants are at the forefront, eventually ending up forming the Imperial Family.

    Majority African-descended country/enclave in Eurasia (pre-1900 of course)

    Maybe some kind of Trinidad/Dubai situation, where workers get brought over to some affluent polity to do work for cheaper than Europeans would, and over time make up the majority?
