    What would a Communist America look like?

    In a scenario where the US went Communist in a "Second American Revolution" during the 1930s due to a worse Great Depression compounded by ineffective administrations, what would said Communist America look like? What flavor of Communism do you see being the main ideology of such a Communist...

    WI: America pays it's war debt

    As the title says, what if America pays it's war debt to France? How does that affect the French Monarchy? I know the crown being bankrupt was only a part of the reason for the French Revolution, but if the US had paid the debt owed to France, would this have prevented the revolution, delayed...

    Earlier British Conquest of Canada lead to Canadian colonies joining Alt American Revolution?

    ...as the tin says, if Britain were able to take Canada sooner, would that increase the chances of the colonies joining an alternate American Revolution? I’d imagine earlier Conquest would lead to more Anglo settlements in the Canadian colonies and more interaction with the American colonies. So...
  4. What if King George III visits America?

    I have recently heard that King George had planned to visit his American colonies some time before the revolution, but that he had to cancel due to health issues. I don't know if this is historically accurate, but for this thread I'll assume it is. So what would've happened if his health had...

  6. A clarification on the American revolution and American Revolutionary War

    I believe that in between the British evacuation of Boston in March 1776 and the British invasion of Staten Island on 2 July 1776, all 13 colonies were completely free of occupying British troops, all Royal Governors had fled and the only authority that existed in the 13 colonies were the...
  7. WI: The United States never adopts the Gregorian Calendar?

    The colonies view it as an unrepresentative decision, and by 2017 the country is the only one that isn't using the Gregorian Calendar. Instead using the Julian. How is American history/the modern day impacted?
  8. WI - Bourbon in exile, but triumphant.

    During the height of the Revolution, some French nobles knew their gooses were cooked so they ran to the Americas - Quebec and New Orleans. What if a major Bourbon went into exile? I was thinking of the Dauphin Louis Charles manages to escape the blade, his house arrest, his death in obscurity...

    WI Proclamation Line After the Revolution

    ...the Revolution. >>> Laughs diabolically and nefariously in maniacal Rhode Islandese, or regularly in Delawarish <<< After the American Revolution, some (extra fancy and probably quite handsome) delegate in the Continental Congress convinces the frontier states to cede all their claims west...

  12. AHC: The United States includes all of North America

    Hello everyone, this is my first attempt with AHC. So if I make a mistake, they tell me. As in other post I've said that I am doing an alternative history of USA with all North America from the North Pole to Panama with some ideas and I want to know what you would do. The POD is since the ARW...
  13. AHC/WI: Pro-King George III American Revolution

    ...Americans widely seize on as evidence that the King is on their side. Thoughts? The effects of the WI: how does this affect the American Revolution? I think it makes a straightforward OTL Declaration of Independence difficult. The problem for the colonists is that they need to declare...

  15. British without American Revolution

    ...was a liar or clueless. Anyways, in TTL, it's tolerated with little more than annoyances, except maybe in Boston. Therefore, the American Revolution doesn't happen. The next one is that the American Revolution does happen, but doesn't really work. POD is 1777, with the French joining in...
  16. Why didn't Quebec join the American Revolution?

    So we are studying The American War of Independence in class, and I can't figure out why Quebec didn't use the chaotic situation to assert it's own independence for GB. One of the reasons the Brits had put troops in North America was to control the French population to the north, and I can't...

    Britain keeps more land after the ARW: the basis for a Super-Canada?

    It's an interesting fact that most Canada-wanks tend to have a POD involving the War of 1812. Very rarely does the ARW get brought into it, and this surprises me. Suppose for a moment that Britain does better in the ARW (I'm thinking of a vague scenario where no foreign power comes to the aid of...

    If the Americans lose the Revolution where do they go?

    If the Americans lost their revolution where and went into exile afterwards where would they go? My two theories are either Louisiana or Canada.
