  2. Liberty Forever: A Trans-Atlantic Timeline (v2)

    Hey, I posted some of this timeline a while ago, and I felt like I rushed it and didn't fill in the gaps I should have, so I've tried to flesh it out and add some plausibility. I'd appreciate any critiques you guys have. Chapter I: The Vermont Crisis Initial situation of the United States in...

    In the aftermath of Robespierre's Rebellion all but a few Montagnard members of the National Assembly were arrested, with the remaining quickly organizing under Danton, as being related with Robespierre was now seen as political suicide. In the end, all arrested were expelled from the assembly...

    Any thoughts on showing presidential runoff elections like this: French Presidential Election 1798 First Round: Robespierre (Montagnard Radical) - 10.8% Hebert (Hebertist Radical) - 8.0% Danton (Dantonist Radical) - 16.5% Brissot (Moderate Republican) - 34.4% Sieyes (Conservative) - 11.1%...

    The President and the Radical - June 2 1801 (End) Jacques Pierre Brissot and Georges Danton stood in a room in the upper floor of the National Assembly, looking down at the fighting below. Danton hadn't been glad to betray his fellow Radical, but he knew it was necessary. Robespierre was the...

    June 2, 1801 (Part 3) Napoleon made sure to step out of the doors behind the cannons. With the fighting already begun he stood little risk of being noticed and shot at. He had been marching with his triumphant army back to Paris when he had received a message, that he was to take part of his...

    June 2, 1801 (cont.) Robespierre walked behind the mob. He didn't intend on getting shot today. They trudged through the Paris streets, towards the National Assembly. Robespierre looked up to see a commoner with shiny boots riding on horseback down the road in front of him. He wondered if the...

    June 2, 1801 Maximillien Robespierre was more than just a legislator. He was a man of the people. He had been among the people for about a week now. He was taking some time off, along with some of his colleagues, from his duties in the National Assembly. "Oh, how has the revolution gone so...

    What are you worried about? Us Parisians seek only to restore the revolution to its initial purpose! ;)

    I mean MA took control of one other New England state (they've controlled Maine since the beginning). And what's wrong with the Netherlands taking part of the Rhineland? And it's hardly a wank. They lost some territory and replaced it with some useless southern Italian territory.

    A detail I forgot: The new French government has a President who directs the actions of the executive branch. He must act according to laws passed by the National Assembly, and can be impeached by a 2/3rds vote of said body. He is elected nationally by universal male suffrage with a runoff vote...

    The beginning of the war is characterized by a major focus on the east by Prussia, Russia and Austria. Russian troops under Generallisimo Suvorov quickly move in, and although the Polish army is slightly stronger than in previous years (due to centralization and the Poles' knowledge that another...

    The French aren't becoming continental hegemons. They've simply reached out to the liberal regimes of Europe in an attempt to preserve the revolution. If anything, they might be viewed as underdogs who will inevitably crushed by Prussia, Austria, Spain and Russia. So far the French have only...

    I was thinking that the Vendee rebellion would be less intense for a few reasons. They didn't kill the king, or have mass guillotinings, so those inciting factors are gone. The radicals have less power, which means less policies that will anger the people of the Vendee, notably less assaults on...

    The POD for the French is more success in early battles. In OTL, the fear from lost battles caused suspicion that the king was collaborating with foreigners, leading to mobs storming the palace and eventually the king's execution. With a more successful war, I see public opinion not turning so...

    You're George Washington and two states are fighting over what both consider to be their territory. New York technically started it, but they were simply putting down a rebellion (Vermont not being a state), whereas New Hampshire were the first to move troops against another state. Should you...
