Britain's on it's second constitutional monarchy dating from 1689. France has had absolute monarchy, constituitonal monarchies, 2 empires, 6 republics, etc. Russia has had...
Britian became a Republic on the account of it having a revolution against an "Imperial King" that allied itself with Russia, due to it ruling Germany/intermarried with Prussia. Russia was an Imperial Republic (as well) but also collapsed. The SCF sent in troops to support the whole continent going to pot.
How did Canada get Oregon?@Thande
What happen was that Mexico did get First World Economic Status so all the western states wanted the piece of the action on the account that a good portion of their population were going to Mexico anyway. Think of a reverse situation of OTL with the walls on the U.S. side to keep people inside rather than outside. The defection of those states started this huge war by the U.S. on the account that they were pissed off with Mexico for being a first world country and that the U.S. wasn't exactly held in 'honour' as it used to. Thus, them loosing the states through military action and Florida as something of a bonus from the war. Mexico could have taken more but it's more orientated to economy rather than war.

Actually I have a similar situation in one of my FH timelines when the US gets nuked: California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas form the 'Hispanic States of America' and attempt to secede and align with Mexico. (The presence of Texas indicates there is quite a lot of Mexican agent provocateuring to get this to happen).
Imajin, what is the fourth empire on your map, the one in North Africa?

Well, don't get your hopes up on it being a North African superpower- It's actually Austrian North Africa, though Austria is having one heck of a time holding it down. After the Great War breaks out, it basically gives up control of the region. However, later in the TL that massive territory in Asia becomes a world power..Thande said:
The Four "Empires" are Prussia (A Kingdom, but it has one of the strongest militaries in the world so they don't care), Austria (Which has done a good job keeping it's minorities down in this TL, and actually has most trouble with Pan-Germanism), Russia (Most powerful nation in the world at this time), and America (Also powerful, but democratic rather than the more common Autocracy)
@Thande
Yeah...well...if you think about it, Texas was (and I'm guessing probably is) really irie about their Hispanics. I didn't really include them in the Mexican War due to their pride on "BEING TEXAN". Much of the border there is actually on the offensive rather than on the defensive.
Just curious- would you be interested in me posting the stuff from this TL on the AH Forum? It's good material but doesn't really have the sense of being "Real" that most TL's here have.
