If we're doing parallelisms I'd assume it would be the Austro-German Confederate war. Or whatever country is analogous to Britain.

That works too, since Germany would've solidified their EU/NATO analogueEuropean-Confederate War?
Sorry if this has been asked before, but in TTL 2019, what's the current state of Anglo-American and Franco-American relations?
As of 2019, the US diplomatic relationships with the UK and France are best described as “polite”. The US is not enemies with either country, but neither is the US an ally. In any case, both the UK and France are part of the Austro-Hungarian/German led European Community, and therefore not of high interest to US policymakers: it’s not considered...sensible in either Washington or Berlin to disrupt the other Great Power’s alliance systems.
There is a level of popular revulsion in both the UK and France (especially in the UK) that their nations ever allied with the Confederacy.
Some policymakers in London and Paris wonder, even as they plan a united Anglo-French economic and political rise under the EC, if perhaps one day the US could one day be played off against the Austro-Hungarian/German bloc. But that’s for another generation to worry about.
Two basic questions (I've started to read this TL again...I read it a long time ago but forgot a lot):
1-How much larger is 2019 Germany proper ITTL than Germany OTL?
2-Did you ever get to do that "Whatever happened to...?" segment on TL-191 characters you said you were considering on the first page of this thread?
Are you planning to add Threadmarks? Because if so. that would make things much easier for those who want to look through the "story" only (I know there is the wiki, but navigating that is difficult these days?
I am new to the site and the thread. I really like the follow up story line.
Great job
I love this thread.
I have a question... what is the status of nuclear energy? Given the energy demands of the German and American empires, I can see energy independence as a political factor.
Regarding space races, Germany and America will want satellites in orbit for surveillance and electronic surveillance.
So I'm supposing no major Chernobyl style events happened to make people wary of what could happen? (Sorry, its been a while since I read through this thread in its fullest).In 2019, nuclear energy is a significant factor in Austro-Hungarian, German, and US energy policy. In TTL, nuclear energy was also a key component of Austro-Hungarian, German, and EC energy independence plans. On a side note, nuclear power did not encounter the same mass opposition from environmentalists groups as in our world.
Speaking of which, would the CSA survive a race invasion or are they going to collapse and add more to their empire. Honestly would be an improvement.So I'm supposing no major Chernobyl style events happened to make people wary of what could happen? (Sorry, its been a while since I read through this thread in its fullest).
Anyhow, what historical events recieve the most media (film and video game) attention in this world? specifically in US and European cinema? Speaking of media, was Dr Lexington ever adapted to the screen? and what is Turtledove (or his counterpart) writing about in this world, aside from scenarios where the North wins and Germany somehow goes Freedomite?

The Entente finds Egyptian super tech.At some point. I'm going to make a Wolfenstein Analogue set in TL-191, so is there any suggestions out there?
