Did anyone ask for even MORE monarchist America wikiboxes???
The wave of them we've gotten has inspired me to redo and extend an old one of mine, now with additional civil wars, airship crashes, and Rooseveltian Bonapartism. Yes, it gets sillier as it goes on.
The White Palace refuses to comment on the scurrilous rumors regarding any supposed similarity between the appearances of Baron Kennedy and the Emperor.

Love it!
Though, just want to point out you've got Emperor James II the son of himself.
House of Lee and House of Roosevelt? That went from cursed to blessed real fast
It's a different Elizabeth who just so happens to look like our Elizabeth, and have the same family names as our Elizabeth. It's basically the House of Windsor embedded into the House of Wessex.
2001, 2004, and 2009 Commonwealth of America federal elections
2001- The 2001 Election saw Mike Madigan of Indiana(the new leader of the labor party after the resignation of Prime Minister Biden of Delaware over not being able to properly lead the MP's of his own party which he likened to "herding cats") winning an election in his own right to continue serving as Prime Minister. The election also saw the election of 46 more MP's over the previous election, the first increase in the House of Commons since 1973 and one of Madigan's first (and most controversial) moves as Prime Minister. The Liberal Party saw it's resurgence after competing heavily with Preston Manning's Democratic People's Party in 1996. After Manning's retirement, Stockwell Day of Alberta was able to pull much of the DPP back under the Liberals due to Day's perceived conservatism however it was still not enough to overcome Labor in this election. The DPP was expected to fizzle out with over 40 of their MP's jumping to the Liberals, but under the leadership of Duncan Hunter of California they were able to hang onto 11 seats. Despite his best efforts with the increase of seats Progressive Party leader David Bonior of Michigan was unable to meaningfully gain more seats in the Commons coming out of the election with almost the exact same percentage of seats as before leading to his resignation as Party leader. This was largely seen as due to the surprising strength of the Green Party under Ralph Nader of Connecticut in 2001 winning their first 3 seats in this election.
2004- The 2004 election saw Mike Castle of Delware carry the Liberal Party to their first majority government since the 1986 election. Castle had successfully challenged sitting Liberal leader Stockwell Day in 2002 by arguing for a more moderate approach with the party. The Liberals weren't the only party to have a successful leadership challenge however, Chris Dodd of Connecticut managed to force out Prime Minister Madigan in 2003 by uniting MP's disgruntled with Madigan's overbearing style in governance (starkly different to his predecessor). This ploy didn't work out for Dodd as well as it did for Castle though. The Labor Party saw it's seats nearly cut in third due to Dodd managing to be even less popular than Madigan and much less effective as Prime Minister (there were even rumors that Madigan was able to convince his friends still in the government to shift campaign support from the seats of his detractors to those of his supporters however these have never been substantiated). As support for the Labor Party collapsed and as it did support for the Progressives rose. The Progressives saw their seats more than triple from the last election and even overtake the Labor Party and their leader Dennis Kucinich of Ohio to become the first Progressive Opposition Leader in over 60 years. As for the smaller parties, the DPP under Duncan Hunter had small gains while the Greens under Ralph Nader more than doubled their seats over the previous year as disgruntled Labor voters moved to them.
2009- The 2009 election saw Prime Minister Castle and the Liberals despite a large loss in support due to the 2006 recession manage to regain much of their previous popularity and hold on to their majority. Castle was able to pull a win largely what most experts assume was due to his personal popularity as Prime Minister as his personal approval ratings were much higher than that of his party (the opposite of what it was for Madigan 8 years earlier). The Labor Party under their popular new leader John Murtha of Pennsylvania was able to reovertake the Progressives for Murtha to become the oldest Opposition Leader in COA history. Dennis Kucinich and the Progressives despite a large surge in support after the recession saw this support completely evaporate as the public began to place their trust back into Castle's hands while Murtha and Labor swallowed up much of the Progressive's left-wing support due to Kucinich's perceived ineffectiveness. The other two parties saw changes in leadership as well. Tom Tancredo of Colorado was able to successfully force out Duncan Hunter to become leader and gained some more support for his right-wing populist agenda. The Greens saw a change in leadership after the resignation of Ralph Nader with his replacement Elizabeth May of Columbia however she was not able to command as much support as her predecessor in this election.
Later- John Murtha would serve as Opposition Leader until his death in 2010 where he would be replaced by former Prime Minister Mike Madigan who would go on to win the 2014 election for Labor to regain his old position. Kucinich would resign shortly after the 2009 election and would be replaced by his deputy Jack Layton of Ontario until his death in 2011 where he would be replaced by little known Progressive MP Bernie Sanders of Vermont. Castle would continue to serve as Prime Minister with high approval ratings until his retirement announcement in 2013 and resignation in 2014. He would be replaced by Charlie Dent of Pennsylvania. Tancredo and May would continue to hold their leadership positions up to the 2014 election.

This is pretty much is George Lincoln Rockwell and the American Nazi Party was successful. Maybe sometime I'll make an infobox of a President Rockwell sometime to go with this.

Part 2:
Margaret Thatcher was the first woman Lord of Britain, stylised as the first Lady of Britain on her personal request on her election to the post following the death of her predecessor, Leonard Callaghan. She had several controversial policies, including the enacting of Section 28. She would die at the age of 87 and was replaced by her colleague, John Major in 2013; he would swiftly get rid of Section 28.
Is this just Kennedy being Kennedy, or is that some sort of conspiracy theory. We know JFK was a lothario, I'm wondering if anyone has had a conspiracy theory tied to them that they were a Kennedy lovechild(any of the Kennedy boys or their dad). I'm wondering if there's been any serious accusation besides Jack Worthington. I would not be surprised, and we did get confirmation Harding had one a few years back
I shudder to think what a country would look like if Madigan was given the reigns of power...

The NBL was founded by ten clubs in 1896, nine of which still survive in some form to this day. The league's early years were fluid, with teams often suspending play and rejoining and relocating to different stadiums or cities. The period between 1900 and 1920 is known as the deadball era as players rarely hit home runs during this time due to the composition of the balls used for league matches. The 1920s also saw the formation of the Continental Baseball League, which saw teams from Canada competing. The CBL threatened the NBL's monopoly throughout the decade, before the leagues merged in 1932 thanks to the Great Depression. Baseball continued throughout both major world wars, surviving potential downturns, before breaking the colour barrier in 1946 when Jackie Robinson appeared in play for the St. Louis Soul. African Americans and Latin Americans featured more and more often in baseball teams after this.
The league expanded considerably in the post-war era, with more teams moving into baseball-specific arenas, rather than sharing stadiums with football teams. The Louisville Athletics became the first NBL team on the western coast in 1949 when they moved to San Francisco to become the San Francisco Quakes and were followed by more and more teams beginning to shift westward to match population growth in these areas. The league survived a drug scandal in the 1980s when it became clear that many players were using steroids to enhance their performance, resulting in the largest ban in professional sports when ninety-four players were permanently banned from the NBL in 1991.
Today, teams play 170 games in the regular season, with eight teams from each conference progressing to the play-offs. The winners of the American Conference and the Continental Conference meet in the NBL Finals, a best-of-seven championship series. The most successful NBL team are the Chicago Reds, who have won 17 titles, whilst the most recent champions are the Atlanta Rebels, who won their sixth title in the 2018 NBL Finals by defeating the Minnesota Titans.
A wikibox I made to accompany a map I recently posted. The original idea was more or less "what if Swedish Pomerania, but more?", and that morphed into the PRM eventually arising after the collapse of a USSR-esque union centered on Sweden, after the Swedish Empire had one too many incompetent monarchs.
American History X
You’re a household name and one of the most prominent endorsers of civil liberties in the United States. You’ve defended killers and blasphemers, so perhaps one with a myopic view of yourself might assume you’ll idly sit by while the Johnson government commits its trail of carnage across your beloved Midwest. But those assumers were deaf, you after all believe in the law of love. And you hate the irrational sect of eugenics that’s swallowed your nation up. Absolutely loathe it. So, as a firebrand, you stick with your principles and loudly let everybody know the plain nature, the obvious wrongness, of what's become of your country. You plan on defending some Jews accused of homicide when it was plainly self-dense (even a mole, in all its blindness, could tell you that). But then the federal AG gets pissed at your areligious crusade, and strips you of your license. You’re brave enough to not shut up however, even when it puts up on death row for trumped-up charges of "treason".
What ever happened to the law in this country?
As you’re strapped into the electric chair, you finally understand the metamorphosis that has occurred. Henceforth, you’ll be more than just another famous lawyer. You’ll be a martyr for the generation that survives this madness.
And you don’t believe in the Bible, but you hope that one line in it is truthful. That the evil shall inherit the wind.
