Wow! An ITTL equivalent of Crimson Skies? Awesome.
Good to see MacArthur win another term. He's got quite a world ahead of him.

The Union Forever: A TL
- Thread starter Mac Gregor
- Start date
Yep, the Constitutionalists victory was a God send for the Republicans. Good observation on the space race. Yes, multiple nations are currently debating starting a lunar program.
Good points on Japan. We will have to wait and see.Very cool alternate history flick! I'm glad to see it's being considered a serious genre here
Also Japan seems to have a tough time in Asia, but they also have a few significant advantages. The first of course is that they seem to be a very competent military power. The second is that all their potential enemies in the region (excluding the US) have one reason or another to not want to upset the status quo, Russia and China have no immense liking for one another, Britain has no desire to see Russia expand her influence in Asia, and the US has to keep a really tight leash on her Chinese ally so they don't do anything silly.
All in all, Japan could expand for quite a while before she really runs into any significant opposition from any one state. Provided she doesn't decide to just invade mainland China of course, then she really has screwed the pooch as that would probably cause an American intervention, which Russia might support in order to carve up more Chinese territory.
So far though the international community can probably exert significant pressure on them from doing anything that silly.
I freaking loved the Alternate History western as well.
I'm also glad that President MacArthur was reelected.

I love alternate history within alternate history!
Glad y'all liked it!
Your welcome.
What about the rest of the world in Sacred Honor?
Well the Bonapartists still rule a mighty empire, Germany is a balkanzied mess, and a resurgent Ottoman Empire is locked in a brutal struggle with a communist Russia! (Feel free to submit your own maps)
Did the Second French Empire win the Great War, almost sounds like it.
BTW, I'm already working on a map.

Yes, France wins the Great War analogue (the UK does not become invovled).
Great can't wait to see it.
Yeah I thought they lost everything except Algeria and some of the Sahel.
The US gained their Caribbean and some of their pacific territories, as well as St. Pierre and Miquelon.
Oh, I'm sorry I miss-read what you aksed a bit too quickly. Brain fart.
Honestly, I think Mac showing the French Carribbean as former US territory was just a silly mistake.
No big dealOh, I'm sorry I miss-read what you aksed a bit too quickly. Brain fart.
Wait, when?
I should have been more specific. On the Sacred Honor map the French Carribean are shown as part of the United Caribbean States, meaning it had to have been part of the US. Whoever, with the US Balkanized by the 20th century, France would never lose the land.

Yeah......, haven't really thought out the rest of the world of Sacred Honor. Feel free to post whatever you think.
I think the AH writers of your TL are as apathetic about small islands in the Caribbean as we are OTL.
A West Indies Federation would be interesting for the Caribbean, TBH....got nothing else, right now, though.
