    U.S. has more successful nuclear power with waste stored on site, and therefore no transport and reduced NIMBY.

    If you wait to reprocess it you have less strontium and caesium but more americium - not sure that's a benefit, honestly. As pointed out it makes reprocessing more complicated.
  2. Pop-culture in TL-191

    So what would Family Guy look like iTTL. Keep in mind that Seth McFarlane is from Kent, CT, so that might shape him.
  3. Separated at Birth: America and Drakia

    Okay, I feel like I've visited there before. I asked for an invitation, when I get it I'll post the TL over there.
  4. African countries grow sugarcane to sell to Europe

    https://www.yieldgap.org/senegal It says important cash crops are sugarcane and cotton, for Senegal. In the 1480's a Portuguese mission to establish a fort at the mouth of the Senegal river was launched. The brother of the local king was also part of this, having been baptized. Some kind of...
  5. Dunkirk disaster and Spain declares war on Britain.

    Yet another bunch of unsupported assertions. Japan would feel safety in numbers with Spain and Italy as part of the Axis x'Dx'Dx'D Just how are they going to help Japan. Both need German support just to stay in the war. Apparently Malta has fallen as well as Gibraltar. Handwavium no doubt...

    In hindsight, was American independence from the British inevitable?

    Yeah. The question is in timing and whether it'd be a revolution/secession or some sort of dominion status.
  7. A more realistic (IMO) AHC: US Metro/Regional Transit as good as in Europe.

    It is, in fact, the number one oil producer right now. top ten oil producers 2020. Surprised the Hell out of me too.
  8. African countries grow sugarcane to sell to Europe

    What if Mansa Abubakri actually sailed to Europe instead of allegedly to the Americas
  9. The Footprint of Mussolini - TL

    I'd bet you'd have one that would make Italy a benevolent promised land...at least in comparison to Nazism. But TTL Mussolini, if he lived in a Nazi victory world (one where the Nazis conquered Russia), would effectively be the hero of Europe.

    US has more energy in nuclear and less in fossil fuels with prices remaining same. Only notable difference is china becomes #1 in carbon emissions a few years earlier and US trade balance is a bit better.
  11. African countries grow sugarcane to sell to Europe

    It was. During the 16th century, English merchants often bought sugar from Morocco.
  12. U.S. has more successful nuclear power with waste stored on site, and therefore no transport and reduced NIMBY.

    Thank you for your vote of confidence! :) To me, on site is the most straightforward approach. And then, at a later date if we have fewer rare materials and/or are more environmentally committed — and esp. if we have safer roads and rails — we can then reprocess at this later date.

    That was an Easy mission Especially as far more of the Company appears to have been in place to make the Assault ITTL

    Trying to Please Everyone: Or Converting multiple Pop Culture Utopias into a Timeline.

    Oh yeah. I'm not finished with an 1800's President List but I can mock one up. I'm not familiar with Consequences of an Erran Shell. I'm fairly certain far left state would exist but I can't really name specific ones. It's a lower body count. They did.
  15. A more realistic (IMO) AHC: US Metro/Regional Transit as good as in Europe.

    Except for at the time of WW2 the U.S. was the major oil producing nation. Even today the U.S. is one of the top oil producers in the world. The fields in the middle east only really started getting big after WW2 and those for the first couple of decades mostly exported to Europe. The Soviets...

    Another presidential election in this TL, this time with Langer winning re-election:
  17. What would it take to remove Hitler Nazi Government in Germany after the Fall of France

    Why would they do that when they were winning? After the fall of France, support for Hitler reached a fever pitch due to the swiftness of Germany's victory over France, in which Hitler expected over a million soldiers to die. Instead, only 27,000 German soldiers died in six weeks of combat...
  18. African countries grow sugarcane to sell to Europe

    This would likely demand I read deeper into it, but the general things I can see the darker region having in common are a hot climate and fertile soil. Many tropical areas have a very acidic soil.
  19. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    The planning that began from December 1981 specifically avoided planning for defence of the islands, it was for a Navy dominated invasion to take place before January 1983. The Junta would then see what happened after the invasion, they presumed there would be no response from Britain. The...

    Trying to Please Everyone: Or Converting multiple Pop Culture Utopias into a Timeline.

    1. Ah, so I see the divergences exist before 1900. Vey interesting. 2. No USSR or PRC is also interesting in of itself, which give me the Consequences of an Errant Shell vibes. Do any far-left states exist in this timeline, even they aren't major powers/influencers? 3. I feel like combined...
