As you know, in the 2006 Mexican elections, Andrés Manuel López Obrador (PRD) won the election and became President for the period 2006-2012 with only a 2% difference in votes. What would have happened if Felipe Calderón (PAN) had won? How different would the relations between Mexico and the...

What if King Ferdinand VII accepted the Constitution, what will the affects be in Spain's latin american colonies and the philippines? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_VII_of_Spain

The challenge is this: With a POD between 1774/76 until 1920, you must unify North America (including Greenland, St. Pierre & Miquelon and Bermuda, Hawaii), Central America (including Panama and the St. Andrew Archipelago), the Caribbean (including Curaçao, Aruba and Trinidad & Tobago) into one...

With a POD no earlier than 1858/63. How can Maximiliano and Benito Juarez be made to have an agreement where they accept the creation of a Second Mexican Empire and that Benito Juarez be the first or second Prime Minister of the same?

As you know, on September 19, 1985, Ronald Reagan the 40th President of the United States met very early with Mexican President Miguel de la Madrid at the National Palace. Where they discussed the situation in the country at the time. The reason the meeting will begin at 7:00 a.m. (Mexico City...

In the 2006 elections in Mexico, Andrés Manuel Lopéz Obrador (AMLO) was on the verge of becoming president in a very close election. And if he had won the election, how would the United States have reacted? And the other countries? And inside the country? Bonus: I will thank you if you give me...

I was reading through "The Lost Cause: The Confederate Exodus to Mexico" and I saw these quotes regarding Secretary Seward's cautious approach to the situation in Mexico. What if cooler heads do not prevail, and the United States declares war upon the Empire of Mexico in July of 1865? Perhaps...

This is also sort of an AHC for those want to try to figure out how it happens. Basically, the premise I'm working with here at least is that at minimum, Mexico is able to do enough fighting back that the war drags into a stalemate, or who knows, maybe the Mexicans do something surprising...

Hi, folks. Recently, I'd finished re-reading both Patrick Martin's classic 50 State America trilogy(TL-76 to the AH fan community), as well as the original fan spinoff, For Want of a Mission. (which went up until Jan. of 2001-25 years past the original, save a few excerpts at the end) As much...

Umm ,the story has began!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:hushedface::):hushedface::cool::cool::angel::angel:

How could he turn Mexico, a military, political and economic power similar to Europe at least since 1910?

What if Hitler did some really dumb thing like trying to turn Mexico against the US and the US found out? Would it be a repeat of WWI or would the situation be practically the same as OTL WWII?

Try and find a way for Mexico, from the date of independence in 1821 to date of the Mexican-American war in 1846, to win against the USA and become a stronger power than it is today. Try not to do actions that would only make sense in hindsight(like insider trading but for history), but choices...

I am not sure which forum to put this in, so I will put it here. Do you think that drainage divides, the lines that separate two different river basins from one another, serve as good national and state borders? The US states of Montana and Idaho have some of their borders defined as drainage...

After the Treaty of Richmond in 1815 declared British victory over the USA, tensions have been rising. Now forty two years after the treaty Anglo American relations have reached a boiling point. With modern technology, larger armies, and new resources gained by both nations from the Mexicans in...

After Vicente Fox's presidential victory in Mexico in 2000, how do you get the PRI, which ran Mexico for ~70 years straight, to be destroyed and sent to the annals of history, or at least have it be weakened to the point it can't get more than 15% in the presidential and legislative elections?

So the Mexican Revolution started because this man had been rigging elections for 35 years, and at the age of 80 decided to run for the Presidency yet again. Would his death before the 1910 election (which he rigged causing the initial revolution) plunge the country into chaos faster, or avert...

Mexican independence was officially achieved on September 27, 1821, under the Treaty of Córdoba. Spain did not recognize the treaties, arguing that the viceroy Juan O'Donojú had no authority to recognize the independence of any overseas province.This situation was dangerous to the newly acquired...

I am wondering ,is it possible 1)To have the porifirato earlier . 2)To have a revolution earlier .Not a peaceful one mind you ,but a full scale one like the RL . 3)By earlier i mean post 1892 . If i don't get answers ,then still watch out this thread because i will make my own timeline .

What does it mean for a Mexico post WW2 that starts with strong support for Republican Spain followed by large formations of men and material committed to the war effort. Let's say about as much men and material as Free France had to offer during the war. Do they have any post-war demands...
