Talk:History of the United States (New World)

Rough draft outline of 20th century:

1912-1918 - World War I, caused by Serbian assassination of Hungarian prince. France sided with Serbia, as did Russia. Germany sided with Hungary, along with the British Empire and Italy, drawing in more and more people.

1938-1946 - World War II; France is fascist, led by de Gaulle. Italy led by Mussolini. Russia stays out till the end and claims a major victory in the 'patriotic war' but is snubbed by UK/USA/DE alliance in the carving up of Europe, leading to the Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, and soviet wars.

1946-8 - Chinese War; Chinese communists attempt to take over China from the north, manage only to divide the country.

1950-52 - Korean War; Chinese/Russian communists attempt to take over Korea, but are defeated in toto with German troops in Seeland next door (OTL Primorski). Korea becomes a Pacific ally of the US in NorPAC (North Pacific Allied Command).

1952-58 - Communist purgings in America take place, angering a number on the American left. A number of spies are found to have helped Russia get the bomb who were appointed by FDR.

1961-64 - Soviet War - Soviets attempt expansion in Asia and into the Middle East, and attempt to invade Alaska. President Thompson (D) has a weak response, and his party loses control of the house, senate, and presidency in 64.

1976 - James Carter is elected as the first Democrat since Thompson; the Media helped get him elected, but his horrible performance led to the rise of Ronald Reagan and William Rand, his first VP, and later Supreme Court Justice.

1976 - Carter (D) 1980 - Reagan (R) 1984 - Reagan (R) 1988 - Fillmore (R) 1992 - Blythe (D) 1996 - Jefferson (R) 2000 - Jefferson/Williams (R) 2004 - McMillan (D) 2008 - Cain (R) 2012 - Cain (R)
