B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L and awesome world building
What prompted Nashville to be named Nashboro ITTL?
1918. The year where it all started.
The time the Kaiser and his allies won against the British and her allies after launching a successful invasion of her isles and taking London.
The public was outraged.
They entered a war they had no right to be in, and their capital was torn to shreds.
Eventually, a scandal would break out, criticizing Edward VIII of not only marrying a American, but being in a pedophile ring across the world. This scandal makes the economy enter a downward spiral, combined with the great depression.
However, the "Angel Society" a group of extreme protestants would be formed, promising "glory" and a complete "removal from world conflicts" as well as a "return for a better society" which promptly would gain attention and interest by the many, they blame Catholics, Scots, welsh, and Irish for their defeats, as numerous purges and ethnic barriers are set when the March on London began.
Eventually all industrial work of the British Empire came to an ever-lasting halt as a return for an agrarian society began, with all remaining industrial work going to defensive purposes.
Approaching the 1960s, the public became dissent with the Angel's effective blockade of the outside world, claiming Britannia as the only thing in existence. Effectively numerous uprisings were staged and as a result the Angels began committing mass genocides in the nearby regions, establishing Ghettos and anthrax outbreaks and a revival of smallpox & cholera, a effective better beginning for measles and polio and other diseases.
This leads to millions dying, and the public would either be fearful, or would grow into the cult of personality.
As of 1984, the Celts are used for slave labor, and the angel's wings have descended to the depths of hell.
It is commonly referred to as the "Lucifer Republic".

WorldRajs are essentially just the Reichskreise level of a WorldHRE, checkmate
Very interesting. Why are Man, Wales, and the Highlands different colors from the rest?
Horrifying, but interesting. What happened to Ireland? It looks like they regained Ulster, but I imagine that they are quite paranoid about their neighbor
So this is my take on a Personalunion between Prussia and Sweden where there’s a thread in the before 1900 currently.
The Point of Divergence ist that the Great Elector marries Christine of Sweden in the middle of the 17th century. While there are people who say that Scandinavia and Eastern Europe would be of greater interest for Sweden I saw the focus for this state in northern Germany. The northern part of the Holy Roman Empire falls under brandenburg-swedisch influence. This leads after a number of wars against Austria to the election and coronation of the swedisch King Friedrich Karl II. as Emperor of Northern Germany.
The Welf inheritance of Great Britain is butterflied away just like the conversion of the Electors of Saxony to Catholicism. While the ecclesiastical principalities and territories are secularized there’s no large scale Mediatisation of smaller territories. At least not in the scale under which it happened in the OTL Napoleonic time. The North German Empire is stronger centralized as the HRE but less so compared to the German Empire of OTL. The Reichstag of this empire is in Berlin. The light blue is to represent smaller states in the NGE all other states should be recognisable I used a basemap from 1648.
This is my first actual map so feel free to criticize me. Although I know that my scenario might be not that plausible.

A Quick History of New France
Louisiana was returned to France after the Peace of Amiens in 1802.
Napoleon vacillated between keeping and disposing of it, considering using it and Sainte Domingue as the basis for a French Empire in the Americas.
The slave revolt in Sainte Domingue and decimation of his regiments by disease decided him to dispose of Louisiana.
To everyone’s surprise, the Peace of Amiens held. Napoleon supressed a report on the state of Egypt's defences and Britain had no reason not to evacuate Malta.
As the C.U. could not afford his asking price, France retained Louisiana but it remained very much an unwanted backwater. It was Napoleon's disinterest in it that attracted settlers wishing, even after the proclamation of Empire, to escape the regimes notice.
Louisiana only came back to Napoleon's attention after war returned to Europe in 1806.
It could now serve two purposes.
The Northern lands of Louisiana were offered to the C.U. In return for an alliance which would distract British forces and money from Europe.
The Southern lands were to become the Kingdom of New France, to be ruled by Jérôme Bonaparte and his wife, Elizabeth Patterson-Bonaparte.
Married in December 1803, Jérôme's brother Napoleon had ordered his brother back to France and demanded that the marriage be annulled. He ignored Napoleon's initial demand that he return to France without his wife. In autumn of 1804, Jérôme and a pregnant Elizabeth attempted to travel to France in time for Napoleon's coronation, but a number of false starts delayed them. When they finally arrived, Elizabeth was denied permission to set foot in continental Europe by order of Napoleon. Jérôme travelled to Italy in an attempt to reason with his brother but could not change his mind until the opportunity of an alliance with the C.U. arose.
Jérôme was installed as King in 1806 with a 15,000 strong French “security force” under Marshal Bon Adrien Jeannot de Moncey, a competent if unexceptional soldier, who had been the commander-in-chief of the French army that defeated Spain and forced it out of the First Coalition.
These troops were not needed as the Kingdom saw no allied activity before the 2nd Treaty of Amiens in 1810.
New France moved in to “restore order” when Spanish control in the Americas disintegrated after the fall of the House of Bourbon. Jérôme's march on Mexico city failing to gain more than the northernmost provinces of New Spain but also ensuring that the new Republic could not bring all of New Spain under its rule.
His commitment of soldiers to the west meant that Florida, which Jérôme had thought would fall easily to him, had time to organise itself into statelets in the south and for the native nations to re-assert themselves.
When Jérôme turned his attention that way, his available effective force was only about 2,000 strong and able to progress little further than Mobile.
After the death of Napoleon the Kingdom gained more independence, King Jérôme II reigns to this day but the border with the C.U. remains disputed and, in some areas, unsurveyed.
The Two Morocco's
--- Description ---
After the failure of the Alhucemas Landing, a massive revolt was ignited across the French domain in Africa. The Rif Tribes were able to capitalize on the event to garner sympathy across the Western world, condemning both France and Spain in the process. With the sentiment reinforced by the use of chemical weapons, both Britain and the United States condemned them and threatening them with sanctions.
This forced Spain to withdraw from its African colonies and France to release all of their coastal dominions. The sultan - Yusef, abdicated from his throne after facing a massive republican revolt. Despite this, the Rif Tribes refused to join them as they prefer to maintain their own unique identity.

This piece is made a tutorial I made for +5 weeks. I hope this video tutorial helps for those genuinely interested. And here's an alt-link to DeviantArt and Reddit for those who are interested.

A hasty one, but imagine that, an England that is fully integrated into an Alt-European Union thing.
Light Grey=Outer EU
Dark Grey =Inner EU or "Euro" or among the more ignorant, or politically radical, "Germany", even though that nation hasn't legally existed in years..
Note: The capital is Paris, though the majority language hasn't been French in years. And ignore Russia.

Well, France and Spain are in for so not great times. This is a massive blow to both which just destroys stability and credibility home and overseas. Spain probably falls into a ealry civil war while Third Republic is just dead in the water.
