The Eagle Stumbles: A Spanish-American War TL

Yes that is the Logic, If the Greeks in the Empire doesn't try mad action.. they enjoy the benefits of the Empire, and i critice you than the Ottoman Empire is in Last Legs.. that was before the War, know they are damage but with the National Spirit in high, and that is vital for a State.

In the Future when the Oil in Founded in all of Mesopotamia Pluss the Arabs protectorate... the Empire will benefit of that(more The German Companies who gonna have the Explotation Rights)

Well, actually, the Turks weren't on their last legs before the war. They were more or less fine, it wasn't until the British started the Arab Rebellion that things started to fall apart. ITTL it seems the British didn't do that, so the Ottomans are going to be more stable. After they find oil, I can picture the Germans owning a lot of the companies (as you rightly said).

But Egypt...firmly in the British sphere, as Sa'id said. I can imagine Cyprus becoming a Turkish protectorate if anything, but I don't understand why anyone thinks they can directly annex anything at all. They weren't in a war of conquest.

As for the USCA, I don't hate it, but where the hell did it come from??
 
Well, let us imagine a Greek-populated Cyprus in an Ottoman Empire that is getting away with punishing their Armenian population. Now let us imagine that this Greek population is pissed and a revolt breaks out. Now let us imagine the Ottomans deal with the Cypriots just like they are/did do so with the Armenians...

This is a pretty good TL! Just read through it. The pacing is pretty fast but it is what it is. I don't think any particular part is ASB and the USCA is there by Rule of Cool.

So, after all is said and done, who has Gibraltar? I don't think that Spanish Gibraltar is crazy. The population was less than 20,000 around the time (total, not just the British majority). Bigger populations have been moved after a war.


EDIT: PS - It is safe to assume that whenever ellipses (...) are used like they are above, it is a safe assumption that genocide is implied.
For example, "I think that The Real Housewives shows are terrible..."

I can assume that it never happens but the Armenians don't make enough of a majority to become part of Armenia. :p

The Spanish lost that battle, didn't they? So it's still British. They're not going to give up their gate to the Mediterranean, otherwise they may as well abandon Egypt, Malta and the Suez as well.
 
Which gives the question... are coal or oil dead? They are fossilized plants...

Actually only coal comes from plants, oil comes from the remains of zooplankton and algae. But because they were once living organisms they are dead in the sense that a human corpse is dead.
