Even in the xenophobic, wartorn hellhole that is Australia, some races were more despised than the others. Rabbits were such a race. Considered a pest for good reason, nothing really changed for them once they were (accidentally) uplifted. Despised by most humans and native uplifts due to their role in the 2381 Australian political crisis and the European-Australian War, as well as suspected (and false) disease-spreading, uplifted rabbits were discriminated against. However, most of them chose to remain in Australia, mostly because they couldn't find a way to a hospitable lepine community. This proved to be fatal for them. The first pogroms began as far back as 2400, but the beginning of the Leporicide is generally considered to be September 2439, when a group of pro-govermental kangaroo militias besieged a small rabbit community, raped the inhabitants and forced them underground, starving and suffocating them to death. This spread like wildfire, and soon all Australians, humans and native uplifts alike, went on a crusade against the "plunderers and starvers" of the Australian nation.

In total, up to 170 million people were slaughtered, making the Australian Leporicide the third biggest genocide in human history.

Nothing dazzling, but just had an idea that wouldn't leave me alone.

Uzbeks are one of the many ethnic groups to make their way through the stars to settle on Ashoka. The first colonists from Uzbekistan arrived in 2110, shortly after the conclusion of the 2108 Colonial Rebellion. The largest populations of people of whole or partial Uzbek descent live in the Hard Landing Metropolitan Area, the Western Naresuan A.R., the Central Sankamphaeng A.R., and the western reaches of the Mariposa A.R., with smaller populations all over the colony, for a total population nearing three million.

Outside of the HLMA, Uzbek-Ashokans tend to live in rural environments or in smaller towns and cities. This has made them something of an insular community; the fact that Uzbeks as a whole also tend overwhelmingly to be pro-Alliance has contributed a sense of isolation from other communities on Ashoka. This, along with several other factors, led to the formation of the Uzbek Cultural Association of Ashoka, an advocacy group, among other things, for the Uzbek people.

The UCAA is notably pro-Alliance; as such, during the 2162 Rebellion, the Ashokan Liberation Front, and several rebel groups with pretension to government, outlawed it in territory they controlled. This only drove the Uzbek people further into the arms of the Alliance. The UCAA was linked more closely with the pro-Alliance militia known as “Pillars,” a predominantly Muslim organization with many Uzbek fighters. This has led to the persecution of Uzbeks in some rebel-held territories.

Here is an infobox for Christian Nation Party that ruled USA from early 1940s to the end of the 1980s. This is my religious right-wing attempt at an one-party America. I also plan on doing left-wing and centrist/militarist ones.

A Most Regrettable Choice

Chicago, 1968

The city was in uproar, the convention deadlock, and the party tattered. Countless votes had passed with the same names heard over and over again: Humphrey, Kennedy, McCarthy, McGovern, Wallace, Muskie. But yet nobody could reach the required number of votes. Delegates were getting restless, some just wanting to go home and others wanting to walk outside and join the protests. The bosses needed a plan and fast, their original plan of getting Humphrey nominated having failed. Many of the bosses felt he was too connected to the Johnson administration, having had fallen behind him on everything. Worried that there was no way Humphrey could unite the party and pose actual resistance against the Republicans, a rebellion led by Mayor Daley instead put up the young Senator Edward Kennedy instead. After Bobby's tragic death, didn't the party need another standard bearer of the flag of Camelot? But he was too young, only barely eligible at 36 years old. There was no way he would be ready for the national stage. He didn't much seem to want to be President. The bosses bickered but they couldn't come to an agreement, forcing themselves to go on to the first ballot divided and bitter. It was a deadlock. Soon, other candidates were nominated to try to take advantage of the vacuum. By the time the bosses agreed this could not continue, dozens of ballots had passed and the waters were too poisoned for them to go back to either Humphrey or Kennedy.

That's when they started getting the phone calls. Originally it was just whispers. Anything more direct would have sounded preposterous. But times were desperate, and the longer the day dragged on and the whispers became murmurs, the more it seemed to make sense. By the time they finally agreed to the deal, they got word that the President would already be landing at the convention center on Marine One within an hour. Clever bastard had timed it to a T.

And so, as the protesters outside battling Chicago's Finest and the delegates inside huddled around Clean Gene and George McGovern roared in anger, the Democratic National Convention of 1968 nominated once again President Lyndon Baines Johnson and Vice President Hubert Horatio Humphrey for President of the United States to bring together the party and the country in these turbulent times.

A most regrettable choice.

I think Nixon would have won Maine. I believe the reason Humphrey won Maine IOTL is because he had Edmund Muskie as his running mate.

I completely forgot Muskie was from Maine. However, Humphrey won Maine by a pretty hefty margin which is why I was hesitant. It was by like a 100,000 votes.

General idea is that this is from a world where the Nazis are either not as prominent or just don't come to power full stop.

The East Kirby by-election of 2002 would go down in history as one of the nastiest by-election campaigns in modern British history. Triggered upon the death of sitting MP John 'Jury' Reed, who had previously served as Mayor, the Tories took the first step of not standing a candidate and instead endorsing the National Liberals, who put forward local candidate Barry Christian. Christian attempted to get a head-start on campaigning, which was stunted by an operation to his liver which prevented him from canvassing for a week and a half. Labour put forward Reed's son in law Brian McKenna, well known for being acquitted on fraud charges in relation to his wife's business in 1998. The anger over alleged nepotism allowed Common Wealth candidate Greg Patel to surge, rallying voters against the Labour government's public service cuts and immigration caps. The split on the left allowed for BUF candidate Michael du Cann, previously a local radio DJ who wasn't really fond of the party but was personally convinced to stand by their leader Alec Parker, to pull ahead. Many were shocked and appalled at du Cann's victory in typically unfriendly territory, and some allege that 'race baiting' over Patel's Asian heritage contributed to the win. Allegations that agents of the nascent Italian Duce interfered with the count were thrown out after brief consideration.

Based on a Campaign Trail game I did as Hillary Clinton today. She promised not to serve two terms, so 2020 will be wide open.
