A Loose Bandage Pt. 0

Introduction

"A Loose Bandage" is the newest and, hopefully, final reincarnation of
a previous, failed alternate timeline beginning with the botched
assassination of the 25th President of the United States, William
McKinley.

The history of "A Loose Bandage" departs from out own history (known
as our timeline or OTL) when the bandage concealing the assassin's .38
caliber revolver slips off his hand, revealing the gun in time for a
bystander to knock the failed assassin to the ground, thus sparing
McKinley's life and (at least, slightly) delaying the years of
progressivism which began under the tutelage of McKinley's Vice
President, Theodore Roosevelt.

From the bungled assassination, to the Russian victory in the
Russo-Japanese War, "A Loose Bandage" tracks a timeline very different
from our own.
