 ====== Confederate Cuba ======
-When for little reason whatsoever, a surviving [[Confederate States]] of America just expands and takes over Cuba and enough Northern Mexican provinces to get to the Pacific, despite the lack of resources that make the Confederate States a bad candidate for Imperialist Adventures, and the lack of a political will for expansion. Not to mention that the pre-civil war drive for Expansionism was motivated by a desire to keep the balance between slave states and free states in Congress.

+Oh, and that's not mentioning the whole issue that not much after the American Civil War (1868 to be exact) the Cubans started fighting a long and bloody war for independence, which IOTL ended in the Spanish American War of 1898, where emancipation was one of the stated goals, and equality was the ideal. A bunch of Slaveholders aren't exactly going to be able to win them over if the curent batch aren't too popular.
