united states

Years ago I made this map, of the 44 states of the United States that covered all of North America, Central America and the Caribbean. The map is not exact, contains some errors and is not the desired result. But I would like to hear your views on some of the proposed entities. Especially the...

For the purposes of this scenario, let's suppose that the United States is in a troublesome position at this point in the American Revolutionary War (how it comes to be in this position is up to discussion). The Thirteen Colonies are under such stress that they are willing to accept any treaty...

Most people have at least some knowledge about the large problem of "hooliganism", the practice of much crime, looting, and fighting in association football worldwide, with well-publicized incidents dating back nearly a century. What surprises me most is that, with some notable exceptions...

Charles Evans Hughes was an US politician noteworthy for being Woodrow Wilson's opponent as Republican nominee during the 1916 elections. He ran on a belligerent campaign in favor of US involvement in WWI (which would prove itself redundant as Wilson joined the war on the Entente's side anyway)...

After 13 years under the British rule the quebecois rebelled shortly after the 13 american colonies did against the British Empire. But what if they hadn't? How would the United States, Quebec and Canada look like today? Could the American revolution have won without the quebecois rebellion?

in the Man in the High Castle (axis victory) universe there is a novel called the grasshopper lies heavy in which the fictional auther speculates on a allied victory over the axis forces and a cold war between the primary victors of the war, the United States and the United Kingdom. There has...

In 1866, a bill appeared in the United States House, which would effectively annex Canada for a fairly decent sum of money, and make the territory into states and territories. This was right after the Civil War many Americans were still slightly upset for the British's perceived support for the...

A relatively massive migration of Loyalist Americans fled to Canada after and during the American Revolutionary War. And, disregarding smaller but famous migrations like the Underground Railroad, migration from the US to Canada has been fairly minute since. Let's assume, for whatever reason...

In 1792, George Washington attempted to retire from politics after his first of President, but was convinced to run for reelection by the two parties in order to combat factionalism. What if, due to a decrease in his health (or an old war injury that didn't happen OTL) Washington ultimately...

So as we all know, after the Zimmerman telegram was discovered, the Germans(for whatever reason) acknowledged the authenticity of the letter. Now what might have happened if the Germans denied its authenticity, and(to add insult to injury) attempted to pass it off as a propaganda ploy on the...

I think we have seen discussion of both; Britain stays out, and the US declares war in 14, but I don't think I've seen them occur simultaneously. I'm not sure how the mechanics of this happening work out, though it's not very difficult to engineer either of the 2 aspects of this scenario. My...

During the late 20th and early 21st centuries various European countries have been nicknamed "The 51st State" due to their very Pro-American views and their eagerness to embrace American Culture. Examples could be Albania, Kosovo, and to a lesser extent, Poland. I remember reading that there...

What might the Wild West be like in a divided America? I don't necessarily mean a Confederate victory in the ACW, I just mean a "Divided States of America" scenario, which could theoretically happen a number of different ways.

UNITED STATES OF CANADA - ALTERNATE HISTORY Timeline FOREWORD Hello. My name is korea, and this is my first post. In fact, I created this account today. This thread will be a work in progress. I will add more maps and timelines in the future. For now, please vote in the poll based on the map...

Some claim that right wing populism both in the US and in Europe got a shot in the arm on 9.11.01. Because prior to 9.11.01 right wing populism both in Europe and US was a most fringe of society. But after 9.11 many of said populist parties in Europe like Front National, AFD, Danish Peoples...

(Note: the following is an exploration of how John Tyler could have won the election of 1844, and some of the results of what might have happened afterwards, it is not wholly realistic, and is in fact inspired by a game of President Infinity that I played as Tyler and managed to just barely win...

The Communist Party of America was receiving a surge in members in the years directly leading up to WWII, with its members being especially concentrated in the state of California, with many prominent people in Hollywood being members of the Communist Party and some even being Soviet spies. So...

In 1855 Abraham Lincoln ran for the U.S. Senate from Illinois. At a time when Senators were elected by the legislature Lincoln initially did well in early balloting. But when it became clear he didn't have enough votes to win Lincoln bowed out in favor of anti-slavery Democrat Lyman Trumbull...

While this is incredibly unlikely and verging on ASB I want to give a scenario that has been discarded hundreds of times another closer look. The Red Rebellion was a massive uprising of black people in the CSA that shook the nation while it was attempting to battle the USA. While the uprising...

The Kingdom of Liberty A History of the United States "Unlike the centuries-old absolute monarchies of Europe, which ruled for power and control, the American monarchy ruled for nearly the exact opposite: liberty and independence. Since Henry the First to George the Second, we have been dearly...
