  2. River Borders

    This is a tricky little bit I've been seeing. Natural borders are great, and rivers (which are so conveniently shown on so many of our basemaps) are the greatest of them all. But, of course, some have cities plonked down on them in a manner which makes it entirely unfeasible for a border to ever...

  3. WI/PC: James Madison stays a Federalist?

    James Madison was an author of the Federalist Papers, the Father of the Constitution, and Writer of the Bill of Rights. He was for a strong central government at first - what could be done to make him not turn coat? What would happen?

  4. Railroads and the Gadsden Purchase

    As it was, a primary cause of the Gadsden Purchase was to acquire some less mountainous terrain upon which to lay a railroad through the newly-American lands. However, let's say that one of those Cession-Swap scenarios happens. The US manages to take Baja, and the US loses everything south of...

  6. When and Where Should You Handwave Surveying Errors?

    *Put in Pre-1900 because most of the errors I'll be talking about are before 1900. Surveying errors: When and where should you handwave them? IOTL, lots of surveying mistakes were made - the upward-curving southern border of Virginia, the piece of Virginia on the Delmarva peninsula...

  7. Largest Possible Mexican Cession

    I've been doing some research on this, but I want the almighty AH.com to weigh in. So most everybody knows about the Mexican-American war and the Mexican Cession (and later Gadsden Purchase) which gave the US California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and acknowledged US control of all of...

  8. Conflict over Slavery in a USA without the Louisiana Purchase

    So in 1803, Napoleon gets a little testy or something and doesn't sell Louisiana to the USA. It gives it back to spain; Haiti shows that the New World isn't anything but trouble. A lot of conflict in the US was over the expansion of slavery - Missouri Compromise, Kansas-Nebraska, etc. - if...

  9. Border between Maine and Nova Scotia

    Going along the lines of my earlier Quebec Borders thread, let's assume that somehow Nova Scotia, Quebec, etc. are included as part of the American Rebellion and win. Okay. We know that IOTL the border between Maine and Nova Scotia was disputed for years until Daniel Webster finally took over...

  10. Borders of Quebec as a State?

    (I've tried to search for this, but it keeps giving me errors or irrelevant results, even when I narrow down the search. Bear with me.) For some reason, whether in an Ameriwank scenario, a Dominion of Southern America scenario, or otherwise, Quebec, Nova Scotia, etc. all become original...

  11. WI: Columbus's voyage is held up 3 days

    On October 10th, 1492, Christopher Columbus struck a deal with his worried crew: They'd sail on for three more days, and if they hadn't seen land by then, they'd turn around and return to Spain. On October 12th, 1492, a sailor named Rodrigo spotted land - an island in the Bahamas. What if...

  12. WI: Hardrada goes for Scotland

    I'm sure most of you are familiar with the year 1066 - the year that both the Vikings and the Normans both invaded England, culminating in the death of the Viking and English kings and the crowning of William the Conqueror, the first Norman king of England. And, of course, with Britain becoming...
