But what About LoN's actions in Somolia, the Sudan, and its nipping the plans for the genocide in Rwanda in the bud? You can't say that LoN's commitment to civilizing Africa has been anything but Altruistic?

I'm going to be heading to Palestine soon. Just finished college a few months ago, and I thought the LoN would be a good way to make a difference. Personally, I hope the Holy Land Neutrality amendment passes. I know most of the folks living in that area aren't too keen on it, but declaring...

The Spanish-American war triggers the Pope calling a crusade against the United States. The Austrian-Empire is drawn into the war, along with Italy and various other minor powers. Eventually they capture and fortify Florida. And hold on to it to this day. But the final straw was the Ottoman...

It is true, few could have predicted Maryland's rise to power over the course of the last two generations. For most of its history it suffered in the shadow of it's larger neighbor to the South, Virginia. After the triumph of the First Confederacy it even suffered a brief period of 'civil war'...

Ah, Handwavium. Okay, I can accept that I guess. Handwavium, and poof, twelve Anglo-Saxon conqueror the world. Well, we're bad ass, but...Still, seems like a cool story.

I haven't read the books, but I'm intrigued. I'll probably order them off amazon at some point in time. I was wondering, however, if anyone could share with me the reasoning behind their strength. How did they accomplish so much with (assumingly) such a small population base?

I know much of the continet was watching the solidification of Maryland's triumph this weekend. The Governor of Virgina signing the Treaty of Alexandria today brought tears to my eyes. Finally, the people of Northern Virgina are free of the tyranny of Richmand, and members of the Free State of...

Depends largely on how the Northern Population reacts to the continued warfare. Exhasperation or Indignation? If this PoD results in Lincoln not being assasinated, I could see how it /might/ lead to Southern independence in the end. If Lincoln is still assasinated on schedule, however, I think...

Anything involving Venezuela could concievably draw in the U.S. (Aformention disenigration of Mexico as well.)

Well, when your major exports are drugs and hot women....

(OOC: Maryland has forces occupying Northern Virgina, down to Richmond. There was mention of holding something in Southern Pennsylvania, but I'm not sure why as I'd imagined us as friendly. (Supedude, just touch on the Penn-MD conflit for me, please. :D )I could see the state having combined...

(OOC: Neo-CSAs Pop Up Quite Easily, Don't They? Reminds me of the Simpson's episode, where they're at the UN, and the Russian ambasador's plaque flips over to say Soviet Union. Everyone gaps and says the Soviet Union is no more, to which the russian ambasador responds, "That's what we wanted you...

I served on board the Edgar Allen Poe, a FSK-Class Submarine. (Francis Scott Key) We mostly acted against illicit shipping trying to reach the Virginia shore, run the blockade, but we where involved in the battle for the Chesapeake. Who'd have thought the Virginians would get so lucky? And...

Of course we'll annex Northern Virginia, and make it subject to Annapolis. Most Northern Virginians were on our side anways. The question is, what to do with Southern Virginia? It's a rather large piece of land to try and keep under occupation indefinately. And the Europeans keep yapping about...

A few PoDs could lead to a Palestenian Christian (Catholic) terrorist organization. Aren't they like 20% christian?

Maryland will retain its nuclear program. Don't think we don't hear all that 'Papist Conspiracy' talk blaming Catholics for everything that went wrong in the war from New York to New Mexico. We'd be fools not to have one.

Where can I get a copy of this book!?!?!:D

how did you get an advanced copy?

I was in the Maryland Navy. Served on board the Edgar Allen Poe, assigned to Battlegroup B. Tough times, trying to keep the Virginians from forcing the whole of the Chesapeake. Thank God for the Steven Decatur arrived when she did.

The problem with the United States being conquered, is that in a likelihood, the terrirory would be a nuclear wasteland before any concievable enemy would be able to even concieve of a plan to put troops anywhere on the Greate 48. (Or perhaps biological) Now, occupation after 2/3rds of the...
