  1. ¡Por la Patria, Viva México Fuerte! A Mexican TL Mk. II

    Wanted to update y'all on my situation and why I haven't updated the timeline. I haven't spoken much about my life on here but for the last 6 years or so I cared for my mother (who had diabetes and then kidney failure). About 6 weeks ago she had a stroke and despite some initial improvements in...

  2. ¡Por la Patria, Viva México Fuerte! A Mexican TL Mk. II

    Hey y'all, kinda went on another impromptu hiatus there. Started a new job about 3 months ago so that's eaten up a good chunk of my time, and various other personal matters also kept me from making any meaningful progress on the TL. Currently about half way done with the next update, with a...

  3. ¡Por la Patria, Viva México Fuerte! A Mexican TL Mk. II

    The lack of freedom of religion with the Empire was definitely a stumbling block to Mexico's ability to attract immigrants. I figure some sort of influence from whenever the UK finally recognizes Mexico and the other independent Latin American states to induce some sort of organic liberalization...

    Oh wow you are correct! I figured TTL Mexico would have a population size similar to that of Brazil. Actually doing the math with OTL numbers, I got a population of about 256 million within TTL Mexico's borders. Economics was never my strong suit, but if I had to guess TTL Mexico's ranking...

    In terms of population Mexico will be up there as one of the most populous nations, roughly around 250 million people. The growth spurt will probably occur in the late 19th century and continue on into the 20th, with it being slightly more gradual than the explosion that occurred in OTL. In...

    After another horrendous wait I'm finally in the home stretch finishing up this update. The last few weeks have been a wild fuckin' ride, and to summarize it in few words, I think it might have been the worst Christmas I've ever had. Well I suppose it wasn't all terrible, I was with family and...

  8. ¡Por la Patria, Viva México Fuerte! A Mexican TL Mk. II

    Thank you so much for those kind words :happyblush The main difference I think I already let slip was that I'll be starting TTL's Mexico off as an empire as opposed to the republic in mk. 1. Vaguely speaking I'm thinking TTL Mexico here will have an imperial period similar to OTL Brazil, but one...

  9. ¡Por la Patria, Viva México Fuerte! A Mexican TL Mk. II

    The TL is not dead, though I know it seemed that way. On top of my normal work and school schedule I've been busy the last month or so with moving to another part of town and then not long after that the flu or whatever aerial cocktail floating around hit us really bad. This doesn't even get...

    The next update is about 50-60% done, I haven't been able to work much on the TL in the last month or so mainly due to school and work. I don't know exactly yet when I'll have it up, so for the time being here's another map of the world as this currently stand, roughly early 1817. I'm...

    Who's to say Cuba won't eventually gain it's place among all the other independence nations of the world? ;) In the short term I feel the Cuban rebels might acquiesce to Mexican control as the lesser of three evils, but realistically I don't think it matters if it's Spain, Mexico or the United...

    Yeah as much fun as it would be to explore the idea of a Mexican Oregon, by the point of the POD it's too late I feel for Mexico to pursue Spain's territorial claims in the far north of the continent. So you're right Oregon's pretty much firmly in the Anglo-American sphere of influence. Florida...

    The Monroe Doctrine will be a major contention point between Mexico and the United States, and with the former potting the latter in it's place it will undoubtedly become a darling amongst the other independent Latin American nations. The threat of Mexico becoming an imperialist bully are there...

    Thanks so much jycee!! :) I feel Iturbide would totally be one to remain neutral until nearly the end to wait and see which side will prevail to throw their lot with them. Regardless of how many Insurgents feel about the dude (no love lost I'm sure), securing someone like Iturbide would be a...

  15. ¡Por la Patria, Viva México Fuerte! A Mexican TL Mk. II

    Kinda yeah. The climatic elements (such as the snow and the rain) also allude to a sort of deluge as well, but it's indeed an allusion to the Insurgents pressing the Royalists from multiple fronts, much like the Russians and Swedes did with the PLC.

    El Gran Diluvio 1815-1817 Father José Matías Delgado (depicted with his arm extended) and the Grito of San Salvador, November 5th, 1811 As the Great French War finally began to wane in Europe, the Coalition forces began the gargantuan task of returning the continent to its...

    I'm doing alright, sorry for the alarm. The update is about 90-95% complete, the only reason I haven't finished it is due to finals and all that fun stuff. It took me a bit longer than I thought as well because I ended up needing to do more research. The next update spends a good amount of time...

  18. ¡Por la Patria, Viva México Fuerte! A Mexican TL Mk. II

    Apologies for the delay y'all, I got about half of the next update done before I became consumed with midterms. I've finally been able to make progress on it now that school's calmed for the moment, so hopefully have it up very soon! :'(

    Hehe you might be on to something ;) Damn I totally missed that. What is the Kingdom of Sardinia without Sardinia? XD I'll fix it asap! A Hapsburg restoration in Mexico does open the door for Austria to be one of the first European nations to deal with the new Mexican Empire, so it is...

    While I work on the next update, I figured a little mappity map would help pass the time lol. So here's a map of the world at the start of 1815.
