Just had a buddy over and we talked about how well many of Woodrow Wilson's original writings reflect the Manifest Destiny Party. It was pretty shocking. "It can happen here."
I love the idea of a Chinese superpower in this. Expect to see it in good detail!
Definite Shicagwa return, strong as ever.
Also Goodyear out the wahzoo, but there will be more individual companies that get backstories, logos, ads, and other fun stuff. Stuff like 1984 homage Sweet Victory, which I always intended to be the Nuka-Cola of this universe:
And Fire-Breathers, which is hilarious, but also extremely dark when you remember all the cocaine references in WMiT Classic that kinda made you think most people did drugs ala "We Happy Few" just to make it through the day without wanting to kill themselves:
Really there was an uncovered storyline I never got around to that showed the Union was putting traces of drugs into the food supply like crazyyyyyy to keep the population docile. Honestly, like many other aspects of this TL, it's a commentary on real life now, with millions of people ravaging their bodies with energy drinks and literal chemical flavored sodas just to power through the day.
Checking it out!

We're still going to get super Chicago? We Will have more private enterprises( market Freedom) or just Goodyear?
If Shicagwa doesn't return i'm gonna be angry. If my glorious home city is going to be in the hellhole that is the RU, it might as well be a powerhouse!
Definite Shicagwa return, strong as ever.

Nap, if you want to expand your TL and add characters, may I suggest Ranavalona I, the Mad Mother of Madagascar? With just a little exaggeration, she would fit nicely into this TL. This RL tyrant makes guys like Chuck Oswald and Joe Steele look like wannabes; if you want a ruler to be a serious pain in Napoleon's and France's backsides, she'd be perfect.
Checking it out!
