In our world the war of 1812 ended in a ceasefire. Neither side gaining much. But it did prove that the United States was not a nation Europe should underestimate. With the Monroe Doctrine a few years later, American isolationism became commonplace. But what if things had gone differently? The US wins the war somehow, what changes?
I think should this happen, the US becomes more imperialistic than in our Timeline. Ultimately America adopts a very prussian attitude, conquest is always a viable option when diplomacy breaks down. With a more militant America, does the US become a central power in ww1? Does France and Britain become radicalized states and start ww2?
