I was coming up with unrealistic AH ideas the other day, and came up with a fun scenario to radically change 20th Century history: a stable military alliance between the empire where the sun never sets and the land of the rising sun. In other words, Britain and Japan. The rules for this challenge:
PoD must be between 1854 (Perry's American expedition still occurs as in OTL) and 1940.
Japan must be an independent nation, not a colony, but how much influence, if any, the British exert over the Japanese is up to you.
NO WANKING.
This should go without saying, but try to be as plausible as you can manage.
