Better Dead Than Red

​​​​​ This will be a private alternate history mainly about the US being slightly more imperial in its effort to contain communism and the USSR not collapsing in 1991.

Points of Divergence
War of 1812: 1812 CE.

The US had much more success in the War of 1812 doing much better than how they did in our timeline. The US managed to take control of the St. Lawrence River and the Great Lakes actually winning the war.

Mexican-American War: 1846 CE.

The US still went on to annex Texas but had to take more of Mexico to keep a free-state slave-state balance.
