Harry Turtledove wrote an alternate history series entitiled "The Great War" along with a prequal and an ensuing series of sequals. The premise of these novels is that the South won the American Civil war due to British and French intervention and a victory at Gettysburg. He manages to illustrate his point quite well. The U.S. later engages in a second war (during the 1880s) , due to the Confederacy carving a chunk off of mexico and constructing their own intercontinental railroad. The U.S. loses again due to a british invasion from canada. Thus reeling from two consecutive defeats the United States felt she was denied her place in the sun. When world war 1 came around the US was part of the German/AH Alliance opposing the quadruple entente. (Britain France CS and Russia)
I know this may be quite a bit premature as TGW is reportedly six months away from the begining of Beta. But there shouldn't be terribly many changes from the origonal TGW. I would recommend someone who has read the books and actually can program HoI as i am two weeks away from starting the tenth grade. To take it from here but here would be my suggestions.
1. The main opposition party in the US is the socialists (controlling about 1/3 of congress) lagging far behind the Democrats, TR should be the overwhelming choice for US presidency while the socialist candidate should be Senator Debs.
2. The main opposition party in the confederate states is the "radical-liberals" while neither too radical or too liberal they are popular in the more hispanic confederate states (Cuba, Sonora, Chihuahua) Woodrow Wilson shouldbe the southern political candidate followed by one Mr. Ango.
3. The confederates should possess all of the origonal southern states plus Kentuc.ky (louiville i believe is the name of the provence) Oklahoma, Chihuahua both cuban provinces and the mexican provence corrosponding with sonora.
4. Hawii is british, Alaska is Russian
5. De facto US Capital is Phillidalphia thouth though the de jure one remains Washington DC.
Thank you for reading i really hope someone pics up this idea.
