With a POD no earlier then the Treaty of Paris 1783, what would be required for the majority of the USA to voluntarily rejoin the British Empire?
I understand there was a substantial loyalist faction in New England which presented itself as a credible force in the War of 1812, but obviously this would not constitute a majority.
Also when I say the majority of the USA, I don't mean that the British colonise the remainder of the continent (eg, California, Louisiana etc) and that technically qualifies as the majority. I mean for the majority of the nation to rejoin voluntarily - although perhaps under great pressure to do so. They cannot be annexed or secede the majority of their territory in a peace treaty to Britain (although they may lose some territory in a peace treaty which could lead to pressure later on).
Thank you.
