I’m not so sure. If anything, a fair part of the north wanted the south to suffer after the war (which is why we got the reconstruction the way it is in our timeline). That and assassination of his wife would certainly harden a lot of hearts against the South.

Simple; he loses the American Civil War. Both for losing it, but his…willingness to go to war to preserve the Union probably isn’t as likely to be excused. Plus, he probably isn’t assassinated, so he doesn’t have that ‘martyrdom’.

Oh I know. Doesn’t stop me from pointing out his bullshit for anyone else reading through the thread.

Which would have left Poland, a crumbling Austria-Hungary and equally ill Ottoman Empire left. Funny how that works out.

Which would have been a mistake to side with the British Empire. As it was far more a threat to the USA then the Germans ever were. Even in our timeline, we came relatively close to going to war with them in the 1920’s and 30’s.

Sounds about right. And to think, if Germany hadn’t been run by Hitler and his Nazi fucktards, it could have been the center of a alliance against the USSR. Well, assuming Britain and France didn’t throw a hissy fit over the very idea.

I see it’s still WW1 propaganda hour and you being salty over in Poland. The only real difference between you guys and Prussia is that you were sandwiched between it and Russia. Where as they’re were sandwiched between Poland, Russia and France. Had Poland been the stronger nation and had been...

You’d have to change a lot and fairly early on too, I think. A major population boom to start with.

De-industrialization is a bit of a stretch for them; mostly because even the most fanatical of them know that modern technology is just too damn useful to throw away. At least as long as there are other cultures around who might fight them.

Can you really blame the Prussians though? They needed the resources in WW1. Plus, who wouldn’t want a buffer between themselves and Russia? :P

Looking for anyone willing to help out with an alternative timeline. It starts around WW1 and continues up until the 1950's. While some science fiction elements appear later on (for reasons that will be made clear shortly) I do intend to keep it grounded. Or at least more grounded then the...

that is impressively wrong.

(Looks at my Alternate Resistance Fall of Man Timeline where the Central Powers win WW1, thus creating a more militarized Europe) You know, I was wondering what I would do with FDR…

Don’t know enough about him to comment.

Good shark!

Yes, very much so.

:devilish:

No comments on this? Anyone?

true enough.

Because clearly, Germany hasn't suffered enough in real life....
