The problem with writing a utopia is that everyone has a different idea of what utopia is. Meanwhile any sane person would say the Madnessverse is dystopian. It will actually be a somewhat comedic Southern Gothic "creepypasta"-esque short story about working at a drugstore called "Pill Mill" (rather close to home for an RX man like myself). Set in a southern town called New Antioch. But it's also set in present day OTL but, obviously, with weirdness.

Interesting... My mind is kinda hoping to an "ambiguous timeperiod" of Rhodes from Red Dead Redemption 2.

Here's a thought: I know somebody born shortly before the cutoff (1960s, 1970s?), at the right age to succeed Oswald assuming he dies in the 1970s/1980s, of German, English, & Scots-Irish descent.

Fool there is only one natural candidate to succeed the great Chuck! Hail to the King baby!
In 1.0, wasn't there a Chuck Oswald II (Jr.) who caused a big problem?
Also, could there eventually be a Bonaparte vs. RU standoff or war? The RU hates the French, after all.

Any Ru Bonaparte war is going to end with both sides glassed due to the amount of nukes that both sides would have.
What I want to know is what happened to The British Isles as the BU is a mess and ireland could be facing a very bloody genocide like the Irish famine madness ified or are they all just a part of the American machine now
The southern gothic has given me an idea...
Welcome to Annesville a quiet, decrepit little town out of the way that never recovered from the civil war and where it seems like the whole of the twentieth century passed it by. Vine and rust mar the welcome sign leading into town where most of the roads have either fallen into disrepair or are just plain dirt as beaten up old trucks & cars of god knows how many generations creep across them. Only place that seems to avoided the overwhelming decay that grips this town is the Duval family estate, an old plantation family that still clings to the ways of the old South, even if it's a shadow of their former slave holding glory. Though nobody knows where their money comes from nowadays, not that they dare ask the town needs their money and those who do try to figure it out tend to disappear. Out west just outside of town is swamp where nobody dares to trade, unnatural sounds are heard from their at night and occasionally an unholy large alligator comes out of their. A few times the swampfolk come into town to trade but everyone tends to stay close to their guns when they do. Especially those angry old militiamen out in the woods who still wear the old grey and sing the chant of Dixie...
IRELAND WILL NEVER SURRENDER TO THE ANGLOS! WE SHALL FIGHT FOR KING, COUNTRY AND THE COMMON MAN TO OUR LAST BREATHS! NO AMERICAN SHALL SET FOOT ON HER SOIL! MAY THE GREAT ATLANTIC SWALLOW US UP BEFORE AN AMERICAN BOOT EVER SET FOOT ON HER SOIL!
ERIN-GO-BRAGH!
ERIN-GO-BRAGH!

Ahem....What I meant to say is that I hope that even if Ireland gets its shit absolutely wrecked, they can still hang on enough to make life for the RU a nightmare. That or we go full North Korea and dedicate ourselves to destroying the Great Enemy at all costs
Lol but actually I want Ireland to survive against the Ru as besides the Slavic people they are the only ones left as everyone else has been immolated so I want Ireland to be like a giant North Korea on steroids surrounded by emmys on all sides out numbered by the Anglo American war machine by 20 to one holding on for survival and one day revenge that or most manage to escape to France before the end of the world by nuclear weaponsIRELAND WILL NEVER SURRENDER TO THE ANGLOS! WE SHALL FIGHT FOR KING, COUNTRY AND THE COMMON MAN TO OUR LAST BREATHS! NO AMERICAN SHALL SET FOOT ON HER SOIL! MAY THE GREAT ATLANTIC SWALLOW US UP BEFORE AN AMERICAN BOOT EVER SET FOOT ON HER SOIL!

As an Irish-American, they're the only ones I can root for. They've used an ungodly amount of chemical weapons, but that can be justified out of necessity. The Irish actually haven't been that terrible, although I'm not sure exactly how harsh their brand of socialism is. That said, they'll probably either degenerate into something irredeemable or get destroyed.
I don't think Ireland will survive. OpCrom will probably seal their defeat.
And I decided to ponder which is worse, WMIT Britain or HeX's Vespasianist Britain. The former will probably be able to obliterate Ireland. The latter will try and fail due to American involvement. So the former is worse since it would probably succeed at that task.
Anyhow, which powers have nuclear weapons? RU certainly, I'm guessing whoever wins out of Bonapartes, Supercatholics, and Illuminists?

I think this best describes this timeline
"Hope is a fleeting thing, madness shall engulf the Earth and the Irish are screwed."

Well, again, France. Britain can try to invade and destroy Ireland, but France will intervene, and that will cause a nuclear war.
