Ah, this! This I like. Nice edits.

Scenes like this would be very common I feel, especially as the war starts to go into the Confederacy. You'd see soldiers being able to greet their families just before they head to the front only miles away.

A Private of Company I, 11th Mississippi ,“ The Van Dorn Reserve”. They wore red jean cloth uniforms and were armed with Colt revolving rifles.


(OTL, but again, its fun exploring uniforms, more so with the CSA.)

And apparently they wore bow-ties into battle. Remember kids, just because you're going to war doesn't mean you can't look fabulously snappy.

Blenheim Palace, photographed in 2014. Following the Second Great War, Winston Churchill spent the rest of his life here under house arrest, spending his days writing, painting and receiving visitors (who had to be vetted by British and German intelligence beforehand). Churchill died a broken man in 1963, from liver cirrhosis.

It is believed that one of Oliver Bulleid's "light pacifics" would have been named after Churchill had Britain won the SGW; the fleet ended up being named after holiday destinations served by the former Southern Railway.

Yesterday, I finished re-reading In at the Death. While there were some characters I found to be somewhat boring, I was surprised that I totally forgot about Boris Lavochkin.

The guy straight up murders unarmed civilians!

Besides that, I'm glad that I found the book to still be enjoyable to read.

I did something on him some time ago using a picture of William Calley.
 
American Freedom Party (1922-1941)
small_American Freedom Party Flag.jpg


After the end of the First Great War, people in the USA and CSA wanted to move on with their lives. No one wanted there to be a war again and the USA would eventually rescind the CSA's war debts during the beginning of the Sinclair Administration. From 1921 to 1933, both nations attempted to reconcile with each other through a sharing of U.S. and Confederate culture. In the states of Houston and Kentucky, a new political party was developed to help former Confederates integrate to American society. The American Freedom Party was founded some time after the creation of the Freedom Party (Dresser) in the Confederate States. Despite the name, the party was a pro-US and pro-CS organization. The name "American" referred to citizens of both countries, since they both considered themselves to be Americans. Before U.S. victory in the First Great War, terms such as "the Union" and "Unionite" were still used to refer to the United States and U.S. citizens, respectively.

During the rise of Featherston, the party became more influential in Houston (state) and Kentucky by gaining seats in Congress. The party was influential in helping Houston and Kentucky to vote returning to the CSA. Sequoyah also had strong support for the party among the Native Sequoyahns, but it was mostly underground due to American immigration into the U.S. territory. The party adopted nearly every exact platform that the Confederate Freedom Party had, such as Anti-Black sentiment, plebiscite demands, Pro-Capitalism, and Anti-Socialism. Where they differed was their commitment to peace. The party campaigned strongly against any war between the American nations. It's flag was that of a reverse-color 35 star U.S. flag.

However, once war between the USA and CSA started and when evidence emerged of the mass killings of Black Confederates, the party was disbanded due to overwhelming unpopularity. The party mostly remains a large footnote in USA history and its symbolic flag has never been made illegal to show in the United States, although the more educated person would probably frown and shake their head upon viewing such a sight.

Wouldn’t Houston rejoin Texas?
 
Wouldn’t Houston rejoin Texas?

I initially imagined it like that, but I decided to add some variety to this post-SGW world.

Some people on this thread imagine that the Second Texas Republic would definitely still be existing past the beginning of the 21st Century, but I tend to disagree. It's possible for the U.S. to reunite them, or they could differentiate them as a historical reminder of how Texas used to be a traitorous state.

Sort of like how West Virginia and Virginia are not unified in OTL.
 
Fidel Castro is farewelled during a funeral in the US state of Cuba. Castro was remembered for his participation in the anti-Freedom Party underground during the Second Great War as a teenager and for leading Cuba into US statehood as it's first Governor in 1960, making racial equality his main priority.

The circumstances of Castro's existence would more than likely have not occurred in TL-191. However, I am inclined to admit that there could still be enough plausibility for some genetic variant of him to be born in Cuba, if not necessarily accepting the idea that the same Castro with the same set of parents would still exist.

Nice one, Nathan Bernacki. I actually like this.

It's so anti-parallel, in terms of Castro being some kind of an American hero. :)

Governor of Cuba, Fidel Castro with his son, Fidel, Jr., 1960. Despite his young age, Castro was a staunch supporter of the United States government's Anti-Confederate policies and was able to be elected as the first American governor after Cuba was no longer under military occupation.

A rare family photograph of three generations of the Imperial German Emperors, 1927 (from left to right: Crown Prince Wilhelm, Kaiser Wilhelm II, Prince Wilhelm of Prussia)

Notes: Prince Wilhelm, the Kaiser's grandson, was killed during the Battle of France in OTL. For TL-191, I will assume that, regardless if he served in the army during SGW or not, he lives. That being said, his continued existence means that he may have had more children and a male heir. So, George Friedrich may not have been born or become head of the House of Hohenzollern.
 
I wonder what firearms laws in TL-191 would be like?

because I am wanting to do a post about Firearms Collecting in TL-191
