Differences from OTL (Irish and British Alliance)

The Irish and British Alliance timeline has several differences from our timeline, and this article is a list of many differences.

Biggest and most obvious difference
Ireland is allied with Great Britain, and Great Britain does not own Northern Ireland.

History

 * Irish soldiers joined the War of 1812, leading Britain and Canada to their victory.
 * The Confederate States tried to call for help, including help from Britain, who denied because the British thought that the CSA was not a real nation, and were disappointed in the United States of America for letting the CSA try and secede. Then the CSA attempted to get help from Ireland and turn the Irish against the British. That didn't work. So they became far more aggressive in the war, leading them to a Confederate victory.

Linguistics

 * The United States in our timeline would be referred to as the United States of America in this timeline, so as to not confuse the country with, say, the United States of Canada.
 * The United States of America is also referred to as "the former United States", a reference to how the simple "United States" will get almost everyone to think one is referring to the United States of Canada, rather than America.
 * A lot of people use Commonwealth English as opposed to American English, because the USA was killed off in 1991 (but it was only truly killed off in 1992), so center is spelled centre, color is colour, etc.
 * New York City in OTL is referred to as New York in TTL, as New York State is now part of New England.

Wars

 * World War III happened, and involved Viacom building a nuclear bomb that would launch on Moscow, attempting and essentially failing to cause a nuclear war between the United States of America and the Soviet Union

Politics/Nations

 * Hawaii is a part of the British Commonwealth in this timeline.
 * They also own Bikini Atoll, and have since 1993.
 * And they are a sovereign nation.
 * Alaska is also a sovereign nation.
 * The "panhandle" was given to Canada during World War III.
 * They are also part of the Russian Commonwealth.
 * Speaking of the Russian Commonwealth, it is OTL's Commonwealth of Independent States, and also includes Poland, Czechoslovakia and Mongolia, but does not include Canada, as it was split up when the Soviet Union annexed West Canada and Alaska.
 * The European Union also includes the entirety of former Yugoslavia, Turkey, Russia and Ukraine.
 * NATO also includes Russia, Ireland, Sweden and the African Union.
 * Speaking of the African Union, it is a nation in this timeline, and comprises of all of Africa excluding Egypt, Uganda and Madagascar. (Before 2016, it also excluded Nigeria.)
 * Israel is a part of Canada here, and is very large.
 * Saudi Arabia refers to the Arabian Territory of Canada, which does not have a de facto name.
 * Canada is very large, and is a superpower.

Architecture

 * The World Trade Centre is still standing to this day, and has been called exactly that since New York City's annexation in 1993.
 * The Statue of Liberty is now in the New York Museum.

Television

 * Green City is a show in this timeline, nonexistent in our timeline.
 * SpongeBob SquarePants is a PBS show in this timeline, and certain episodes from later seasons would be made earlier. It also started Season 1 in 1998, unlike OTL's 1999.
 * Greeny Phatom is a television show in this timeline, and is a sort of ripoff of Green City. Plus, it actually started in 1995, but would also have a reboot in 2009, which is when Greeny Phatom started in OTL.
 * Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends doesn't end up as merchandise-driven trash like in our timeline, and instead exists as one of ITV's most well-known shows. The franchise still exists though, as well as the merchandise. And the show never ends up on PBS, instead staying on ITV.
 * Because Viacom is an evil corporation that tried to start a nuclear war here, a lot of the Viacom-syndicated/distributed/whatever shows of our timeline would instead be released by a certain other company infamous for having a logo that scared many...

Film

 * Greeny Phatom: The Movie is similar to OTL's crappy non-film, but in theaters, although there are more differences than that.
 * It rips off some different things than OTL.
 * There were a couple Green City films.
 * The Big Green City, in 1973. The first film. Involves Green City facing pollution and corruption, and how the main characters have to stop it.
 * The Bigger Greener City, in 1979. The second film. Released first in Canada.
 * The Big Green City for Free, in 1983. The film was actually distributed for free in some markets, such as Ireland.
 * The Biggest Greenest City, in 1994.
 * The New Green City, in 2000.
 * "Corporate Strike: how Viacom almost doomed to the world" is a Canadian documentary film about World War III, and how it shaped North America.
 * "Communism to Fascism: How North Korea tried to conquer Asia" is similar, but it is a South Korean documentary about how the war shaped Asia.
 * "The German Reich: A Tale of Reichs" is a British documentary about the four German Reichs: Holy Rome, German Empire, Nazi Germany, and the Fourth German Reich.
 * "World War III: How it changed the world" is another British documentary, this time focusing on World War III in general.
 * "Polybius: The Mind-Controlling Game" is yet another British documentary, directed by Stuart Brown, but this one is about Polybius, the arcade game.

Music

 * "Blame Canada" is a Greeny Phatom song in this timeline, and is sincere unlike OTL. When asked about the song, Kim Campbell said she was offended by the song, and would be one of the causes of the Green War. In fact, many Canadian leaders were offended by the song, and not even just leaders. The entire country of Canada is offended by the song.

Internet

 * I Hate Everything looks at the Greeny Phatom movie in his "The Search for the Worst" series, and did not like the film.
 * YourMovieSucks also looked at the same film, and thought it was also horrible.

Business

 * Viacom, instead of being a mass media corporation like in our timeline, is an evil mega corporation that owned two nations under copyright in this timeline. Therefore, almost all of Viacom in OTL would be part of other things in TTL, such as SpongeBob (PBS), Nickelodeon (Time Warner, although in OTL it already was a part of them until 1984-1985), Paramount (Gulf+Western), MTV (also Time Warner), and CBS (IBA)
 * Speaking of the Independent Broadcasting Authority, they lasted much longer than in OTL, and lasted long enough for them to become a worldwide authority licensing brands for even countries outside of Great Britain, where networks such as TVO, CBS and a few others would be part of the IBA, and therefore a brand identity for ITV.
 * A lot of brand identities for ITV didn't die off.
 * HTV also broadcasts for New South Wales and Western Australia.
 * London Weekend Television also broadcasts for the other London (Ontario).
 * Anglia also broadcasts for Brittany.
 * The Corporation for Public Broadcasting also ends up becoming a worldwide thing rather than just an American thing, and networks such as CBC, TF1, the BBC and others would become a part of it.
 * A large majority of PBS stations have been shut down in 1991. Some of them would come back in 1993, now for Canada, but there's still a lot of them lost to Viacom. All stations in California, Nevada and Oregon would now broadcast for the WABS network, fully "West American Broadcasting System".
 * Speaking of those TV stations of PBS now broadcasting for Canada, they are now CBC stations. So WNET, WGBH and so on are now CBC stations.
 * Cinerama Corporation produced and distributed the Green City film in 1973 and would eventually end up lasting longer than in our timeline, to the point of becoming a minor film corporation.
 * Paramount is still owned by Gulf+Western, and Gulf+Western still exists.
 * CiNAR would adopt a logo in 1978, rather than in 1985.
 * They would also get into the childrens television industry in 1979 rather than 1984.
 * And they would not produce Caillou, meaning they never gain too much infamy.
 * The CiNAR scandal still happened, but it wouldn't tarnish the company's reputation because in this timeline it was caused by Viacom trying to make them go out of business, and destroy Green City.
 * The Cookie Jar Group still formed, but CiNAR would not get rebranded to Cookie Jar.
 * And on top of all that, they still exist to this day.
 * Filmfair would propel themselves to a famous animation and production company with Green City, and would not be closed down in 1998.
 * Although Columbia Pictures Television would still be made in 1974, Screen Gems would still be what it was before, but would only do their thing with their big hits, while CPT would serve the same purpose but for other, lesser known things. However, in 1975, Screen Gems would start syndicating television programs, and expressed further interest in distributing and producing shows. A lot of Viacom-distributed or syndicated programs would be instead distributed or syndicated by Screen Gems, excluding those that Viacom directly owns.

People

 * The Parker Family exists in this timeline, and was infamous for William Parker, dictator president of the Confederate States, Gregory Parker, dictator of the Viacomese Empire that lead a Viacomese Holocaust not unlike the Nazi holocaust in World War II, and a few others. Trey Parker is a part of this family, and unlike OTL, he became the dictator of the Republic of Viacom after John Parker's death in the Green War.
