I've heard What Ifs of the 13 states going their seperate ways after the Revolution, but what if the arrangement established during the American Revolution persisted? Each state would be an independent political entity with their own local military, but there would still be an overall Continental Army and a Continental Navy that would coordinate the military efforts of the 13 states.
The Continental Congress would be a permanent body of representatives from each state appointed by each of their governments and would have a head delegate or president.
How could this happen in the first place? How would western settlement proceed? And would the United States try to expand to include other American colonies and countries?
