Description
A Munroist style map of An 18th Century Cold war.

Not so much Cold war as in a War which involves MAD, but a War between Ideologies which is fought through proxy wars rather than on their own soil.

Basically the Point of Departure is when The US Revolution is defeated piecemeal by the British who overwhelm the Americans. Many of the more Radical Revolutionaries (Thomas Paine, John Adams, Benedict Arnold) Escape into Spanish held Louisiana, settling down in Veracruz influencing many a young men.
An Alternate french revolution occurs due to French intervention in the *Fourth Anglo-Dutch War, causing the radicals to survive for a long time.

As the *French revolution occurs, Much of New Spain erupts in revolt as universities are shut down and the creoles are denied rights. Many American Expats hitch a ride back to Philadelphia and ignite the revolt a new.

Catherine the Great lives long enough to begin attacks into Persia, leaving Europe in the Hands of the Radical French. Paul I is not able to pull his troops out of Persia quick enough to impact the war, and receives nothing. His personal comments at an alternate Congress of Vienna don't help his cause. He finds time to go to the ruins of France, and is influenced by the Radical Ideas, which he begins imprinting of his son, Alexander.

Meanwhile most of North America has won Independence, as the British and Spanish reluctantly pulled out of less crucial areas. Mexico and the Federal Republics of America grow to be close friends and allies.

The FRA grows in strength, moving into other parts of the Americas to vanquish Tyrannical powers. More than a few Pirate Attacks lead to An America Landing of the Shores of Tripoli, and the Americans, abusing the turmoil of the Ottoman civil war, install FRA-friendly regimes in Tripoli, Fezzan, and Tunisia. Morrocco also becomes an ally after witnessing the power of the FRAN.

Slowly it Dawns on the UK and Austria that the Ideas from France are spreading and can cause more chaos and turmoil. So in 1821, the Vienna Accord is signed, proclaiming 'adherents will strive for a world of Peace'.

Russia and America, though only united through liberal attitudes, begin to become closer, the Russians seeing America as their Window West, and America seeing Russia as their Eastern Friend.

And so begins the Anglo-Austrian/Russo-American Cold War.

Feel free to ask questions.
