Has there ever been a timeline in which the US is smaller than IOTL? I've seen plenty of timelines in which the USA becomes slightly larger or much larger than its OTL size, but I've yet to see a timeline where the country does not somehow dominate the continent. There are so many things that could have gone wrong in the history of the US, and yet every time it's featured in a timeline, it seems that the country is destined to be powerful. While I fully understand timelines whose purposes are to make the US better, it's when the US as part of some Euro-centric timeline somehow expands into Asia or South America that I roll my eyes. Why is the US always so powerful, and are there any good TLs which have the US not being a great power?
