July 1863: The seige of Vicksburg fails, and President Lincoln loses against his challenger Democrat George B. McClellan. Peace is made with the Confederacy, who's people and leadership wearily welcomes peace. An era of rebuilding occurs, and some industrialisation begins in some less devastated states, initiated by the goverment to provide for the returning soldiers. A period of large unemployment rates follow, and with lowering of cotton prices, is bound to increase.
1870-1880: The idea of Manifest Destiny occurs in the CSA, aimed especially at Central America. Thousands of privateers and immigrants head southward with the aim of colonising and then adding Central America as territories to the CSA. Despite US, British and French sentiments being against it, the CSA continues to provide funding and turns a blind eye to it's citizens actions in Central America. Much of the region becomes quasi-Confederate territory or controlled by Confederate-allied warlords. It would take until 1925 to completly pacificy and dominate the region, and remains a location for Confederate dissidents. The Prussian victory over the French brings the imagery of the CSA versus the USA, and the two countries grow warmer. In contrast, France aligns itself with the Americans, though is less successful due to the support previously given to the Confederates.
1898: The Spanish-Confederate war occurs when filibustering forces in Cuba are captured by the local Spanish garrison. Despite local Confederate numerical superiority, they are unable to effectively defeat reinforced and re-equipped Spanish forces and are forced off the island, as well as Puerto Rico. the Carribean holdings remain a part of Spain and their hold there is reinforced with additional troops. Unfortunately, Spain is left cash-strapped and struggling from war-debt.
1899: Japan buys the Philipines and Guam from the desperate Spaniards, to the detriment of the British and the Americans who have begun to expand their interest in the Pacific. Japanese colonisation will increase during their control, and is a integral part of the Imperial domains. The increase in Pacific holdings leads to a larger naval influence as the goverment looks towards Indo-China as a possible expansion. covert aid given to anti-French forces in the region and humanitarian support manages to drive the populace closer to Japan than their new French overlords. Japan is unwilling to risk battle with the French or the British abandoning their alliance over the matter.
Only four time periods so far, but what do you think?
