This is seems like a minor idea, but I’m curious about. In a POD where the Confederate States of America won independence around 1862, with international recognition from Britain and France, and war-wariness from Copperheads and Civilians of the North. So after independence of the CSA, what...

Jefferson’s Anti-Slavery Crisis Vignettes I was originally thinking of history as a wave, with the people being carried along it. However, that merits further investigation, as individuals often have large amounts of agency in history. Often times, historical movements are the results of a...

I was always fascinated by the American Dream, and how it does not always translate to the American Reality. So I asked the question, "What if Georgia and Carolinas did not participate in the American Revolution (walked out of the Declaration of Independence convention) due to Thomas Jefferson's...

This scenario will look at a possible timeline where the Confederate States are successful in suceeding from the Union. The war in the Mississippi theater would largely remain the same. The Union would succeed in capturing major cities like New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Memphis, Nashville, and...

After rewatching to kill a Mockingbird and other pre-1962 dramas set in the US south, that made me think. The large majority of whites and blacks in the south were both employed in farming, and most equally poor. But still most of the white population had a massive hatred towards...

So, I've been a longtime reader of the forums, and since there was no thread specifically dealing with this alternate reality (at least that i've found), I've decided to join in and make it. 1. What would it take for Italy to be divided in the cold war in a way similar to germany or korea? 2...

What is the earliest point that the Southern states could secede from the Union?

Your challenge, with a POD just after WWII, is to fulfill what the title says. Keep the Midwest and Northeast from rusting, and the electoral college should be similar to 1952, but there are restrictions: 1. A larger US economy. 2. Open to free and fair trade. But they support downscale people...

With a POD of 1600, make the following states romance speaking majority by the year 1900 within a state that is not Romance Speaking (so English or Dutch essentially): Arkansas Louisiane Texas Mississippi Florida Alabama Southern Georgia Bonus points with a large variety with Portuguese...

All right. Taking notes and elements from Timeline-191 and more, the South won the Civil War (With aid from the UK and French.) and stay independent. However, when WW1 rolls around (for the sake of argument, most everything else in the world happen OTL more or less) the USA allies with Germany...
