A new update has been prepared. Enjoy.
[FONT="]Confederate Troubles[/FONT]
[FONT="]Following the shift of French and British capital from the Confederacy to the United States, the fledgling Confederate economy was pushed into recession. Fortunately, President Thomas Jackson was able to institute several policies that pulled the Confederacy out of its economic woes before his administration was over. Not many citizens noticed the difference between having they’re European partners and being alone. This was key in the preservation of its isolationist policy. [/FONT]
[FONT="]The Sino-French War[/FONT]
[FONT="]The Sino-French War began as a series of conflicts in Indochina. It was sparked over the question of which country would have control over the Gulf of Tonkin. While this conflict was technically not covered by the Anglo-Franco-American Treaty, it was decided that it would be best to improve Franco-American relations after the fiasco over the Panama Canal. In his final act as president, Custer committed several divisions, as well as a good deal of the Pacific Fleet, to fight in the Sino-French conflict. American intervention would prove to be, if not decisive, then at least very important in the ultimate French victory. Though France was not able to achieve its ultimate goal of the conquest of Formosa, it still managed to capture and hold Indochina and the Pescadores. American presence at the negotiating table was vital in cementing France’s rule over these areas. America’s actions in this war were to prove vital in the continuation of the Anglo-Franco-American Alliance.[/FONT]
Also, I haven't been getting many comments lately. Unless I know people are reading, I may have to terminate this TL. So please, comment, even if its just to say, "nice update".
