Description
By request, a quick worlda map of the Americas in the world of my previous map, The United States of Europe . The basic idea behind the Americas ITTL is that there was no War of 1812, with Britain not occupied on the Continent (which is a big part of why the Confederation is having trouble getting off the ground--less of a national identity), though Napoleon still sells Louisiana to the US. With more British involvement in the Americas, the Monroe Doctrine is pretty much dead in the water, and so the hemisphere mostly devolves into a US-UK Great Game of sorts. Most of the big changes happen after the war in Europe ends, as the Spanish colonies fight wars of independence with the homeland (Unlike OTL, Napoleon didn't place a relative on the throne of Spain, just Portugal, instead opting to simply make the King powerless). During these, the UK and US sponsor different rebellions, and end up with influence in different regions. (California and Texas are Anglo-dominated republics much like OTL, except that they were sponsored both by the US and the UK and so feel more generally "Anglo" rather than British Anglo or Anglo-American, which is why they haven't joined the US. Texas probably will eventually, though.)
