I've started out on a wikibox-y timeline (Learning to be Free Again), and I figured I'd repost them here.

The second answer is correct. And ITTL, many of them got resettled in the east. Very, very far east…
Zeleny Klyn, Siberia, Kazakhstan, or Kamchatka/Chukotka?

Also, if I'm to guess, the eastern border of Germany starts from Wismar and Schwerin, then the Elbe all the way to Dresden?

Infobox is very cool but IMHO more probable would be that Poles would either not rename Berlin at all or rename it to Kopanica (which is IIRC name of ancient slavic village in the same place).

Siberia and Kazakhstan, mostly.

It kinda deviates from the Elbe in the south, but that is because southern Saxony was given to Czechoslovakia as a “compensation” for Carpathian Ruthenia (in OTL Czechs and Slovaks complained that they weren’t given any parts of Germany even though Poland was, but their voices were ignored by Stalin; ITTL it went differently, because Allies wanted to “punish” Germany as much as they could).

Eh, Köpenick is only a small part of Berlin, and Barlin is a perfectly good Polish equivalent of the perfectly Slavic toponym Berlin.
 
Just saying, but Harrison had pledged to only run for one term, and the Whigs generally leaned towards support for Presidential term limits if I remember correctly, as a reaction to Andrew Johnson among other things
Do you have a source for that? Because IOTL no Whig President chose to forgo a Second Term, Harrison and Taylor died, Tyler was kicked out of the Party and Filmore failed to win renomination.

"I give my aid to it by renewing the pledge heretofore given that under no circumstances will I consent to serve a second term."

-taken from his first inaugural address

Though looking into it more, I'm having a hard time finding stuff saying the Whigs in general took that stance... Harrison himself did and the party got behind him on that policy for the 1840 election, but by 1852 (when Fillmore tried to run for a second term) it apparently wasn't an issue at all, so maybe it was just more of a Harrison thing specifically. At any rate Harrison himself did voice opposition to running for a second term

From Desire the Right:

Anthony de Tounens (born Antoine Tounens) was a French-Patagonian lawyer, adventurer, and politician. After arriving in Chile in the late 1850s, he convinced the Mapuche (then called "Mapoochees" by the British) to appoint him as "Great Tokee" (modern spelling: "Toki"), the Mapuche title for supreme chieftain, perhaps in hopes with a European as their leader they would have an easier time protecting against European imperialism. However, with the threat of Chilean and Argentine invasion, de Tounens turned to the British for assistance, asking for annexation into the British colony of Avondu. The British accepted, however would shortly thereafter cede the portion of de Tounens' claimed territory that lay west of the Andes to Chile. Afterwards, de Tounens settled in New Swansea and rose up through the ranks of Avondu provincial politics to become its second Premier, the first Liberal to hold the office, a position he would hold for over a decade. In 1886, after the establishment of a Patagonian federal government, the newly appointed federal Prime Minister, Joseph Chamberlain, appointed de Tounens as Minister of the Interior. He would serve in this capacity until the government's defeat in the 1895 election, in which de Tounens lost his own parliamentary seat of Inner Avondu. After this defeat, he would retire to New Swansea where he would pass away in 1899.

Okay, so what happened to the Mapuche after de Tounens' entry into Patagonian politics?
 
Space Travel is Fraught with Danger

The Emergency Election of the USS Selene, an intergalactic escape ship, occurred after the ship crash landed on the Planet Simioj after the destruction of all life on Planet Earth. The inhabitants of the ship wanted to know if they were still Americans or something new. The American Legitimists (Americanists), led by Space Force Captain Waltev Parkell, argued that they were the last bastion of American Society and Culture and that they should keep that. On the other side was the Free Planetary Coalition (Freedonian), led by Scientist Aarold Morgon, argued that they should adapt and be changed by their new environment as adopting the old American moniker would trap them in unnecessary stagnation. There was a third party of the Survivalist Alliance, led by Activist Nova Adams, who called for a commune to be established and the people should just try and survive. They only got 2.8% of the vote. The Americanist would win the vote and begin to build a copy of American Society using the life support system of the USS Selene, creating the Provisional Government of the United States of American on Simioj, usually just called the United States. Over time, the three factions would evolve into Political Parties. The Americanists would become the Galactic Alliance, an expansionist, xenophobic, and conservative party. The Freedonians and Survivalists would ally into the Scientific Labor Party, an isolationist, ecological, and socialist party. Eventually the small survivor colony would come into contact with the People's Republic of Chinese Yuán, another survivor colony that originated from the Chinese Spaceship Shi-huang-ti.

The stage is set for the Election of 2093 in the PGUSAS.​
