    Europe in a Failed American Revolution TL

    I'm reworking a timeline that involves a failed American revolution followed by a 2nd Revolution. The PoD is an American loss at Saratoga, which leads to the French not getting involved. There is a general consensus that the French revolution is delayed. What I'm wondering is what will happen...
  3. WI the American Revolution failed?

    What if the American Revolution failed? For a specific cause, what if Louis XVI refused to provide the aid that ended up being instrumental in the American victory? Would the British Empire last even longer, controlling most of the world? Would France still be an absolute monarchy? What else...
  4. It's eerie just how similar Shays' Rebellion and the American Revolution were

    A large body of people, many of whom were denied the right to vote, were being taxed by a distant government that mostly acted in the interests of a wealthy merchant elite who dominated that government. In response, angry New England farmers armed themselves, shut down the courts that were...
  5. Challenge: Make the American Revolution be about... slavery

    I'm in an absurdist mood. Make the issue of slavery prominent in the American Revolution.
  6. Longer, bloodier American Revolution

    Awhile back, I read Jeremy Black's book on the US revolutionary war, where he noted that a drawn-out, bloody, but ultimately successful (think Latin America OTL)conflict was the most likely trigger for a Social Revolution. Offhand, the RN defeating De Grasse in 1781 and then reinforcing...
  7. WI : France had North American and Indian Colonies during the Revolution

    Consider French won the 7 years war (likely shorter war) and still got colonies in North America (even grabbing the lands it lost in the treaty of Utrecht) and India, due to war being shorter and Britain pulling out of war and giving up land to save Hanover. Consider the thirteen colonies still...

    Hello. I am writing a fanfiction that centers around Alternate History, and my next story concerns a Communist Revolution taking place in the United States, preferably during the Great Depression. So, what specific POD would be required to make this happen?

    The Commonwealth of North America: The Tale of the Second American Revolution

    ...reworking of an earlier timeline Liberty or Tyranny. The idea behind that timeline was that the French don't get involved in the American Revolution. The Americans still win but it is much longer and much more costly victory. Before the war is over, Benedict Arnold would overthrow the...
  10. AHC: American Socialist/Communist revolution

    With a POD no earlier than 1900, cause a (successful) American Socialist/Communist revolution.
  11. How could Canada or other colonies have joined the American Revolution?

    My question is how could any other British colony have joined the Revolution and become part of the US? Namely: Canada (Nova Scotia, St. John's Island, Rupert's Land, New Brunswick, Quebec), Bermuda, the Bahamas, the Leeward Islands, Grenada, St. Vincent, Tobago, Dominica, Bay Islands, Cayman...
  12. WI: Swift Defeat of American Revolution

    So I'm pretty sure this has likely been done to death, but what would the postwar colonies look like if the American Revolution got crushed before it could get off the ground? Specifically, who among the prominent figures would be hanged as traitors, who might be spared, and what would the...
  13. Easiest Way to butterfly the American Revolution?

    Would a lessened Seven Years War do the trick? Or alternatively, a greater French involvement in North America do it?
  14. Failed American Revolution = Failed French Revolution...?

    I was wondering, is that true without a successful American Revolution to "inspire" it, the French Revolution would be doomed to failure, to the point that France itself will be dissolved into several smaller states...? I will use some part of Monarchy World Timeline as an example, in this TL...
  15. Britain's might-The UK win the american revolution

    This will be based as a timeline rather than as a story or a journal.Just like a map game.
  16. American Revolution Roulette

    ...a dozen names on this list. Kill six of them (assume infant motality) and predict how things would've broken differently in the American revolutionary period. 1. Ben Franklin 2. Geo. Washington 3. John Adams 4. Sam Adams 5. Thomas Jefferson 6. Henry Knox 7. James Madison 8. Alexander...

    Lives of the Founding Fathers in a No American Revolution timeline

    So yeah. What would lives and careers of the signers of the decleration, articles of confederaiton, and the constitution, along with the major military leaders of the Revolution be if the Revolution hadn't occured?
  18. Could the American Revolution have ended in a draw?

    What I mean by that is, is there any way that that war could have ended with some of the 13 colonies becoming independent from Britain, but also with at least one of the original 13 staying with Britain afterwards?
  19. Famous People From An Alternate World-The American Revolution fails.

    ...you write about them fits with the "canon." Same as theReturner’s thread, but with a different POD. This is a world where the American Revolution failed. My first post will simply set up the POD. George Washington: Leader of the American Rebellion of 1770s (also known as Washington’s...
  20. What if the British put down the American Revolution of 1776?
