You Are Here

You Are Here: The United States controls much of the North American continent. The first major POD is when the US wins the Battle of Lundy's Lane and proceeds to occupy Quebec and Ontario. After the Battle, the United States eventually won the War.

So now, welcome to the Portal Page of You Are Here. This timeline explores what happens after the POD and the butterflies that follow and its effect on nations.

The USA took many, many steps to take over North America (although involuntarily, this is just what happened, since defeated countries slowly had bits and pieces of them added to the Union.)

Also, Empires still exist today, like the Russian Empire. Because of the non-existence of the USSR, several other nations did not become communist, while Poland became the communist world capital and eventually divided between the US and Russia.

This is a live timeline that unfolds now.



Background and Basis of World
There are several PODs in this timeline. The first of these is when the Battle of Lundy's Lane is prompted earlier, with still American defeat, but less casualties and more British losses.

The second is the Battle of Crysler's Farm (December of 1812), where America wins.

Then there is a battle of York (1813), which never happened in OTL. America wins here, occupying Upper Canada.

Later in 1814, the major POD occurs. Lord Liverpool refuses to back down. He does not allow any peace treaties to be signed, so the morale of British soldiers lowers.

Merchants in places like Liverpool and Bristol are angered at this. They are paying wartime taxation and cannot trade with Americans. Many of them move to the French Empire to trade with Americans.

Now the War is no longer a sideshow to the Napoleonic Wars. It is now a major drawback to the British War effort.

Since British forces are no longer willing to fight, the US manages to occupy Lower Canada.

Today, America is the undisputed world ultrapower and master, with Russia a close second.

The special relationship between the US and UK in OTL is shared by the US and France.

The OTL American-French relationship is enjoyed by the US and Iberia.

England is occupied, due to its being Fascist under Oswald Mosley after the British Civil War. The UK is Scotland, Wales, and Ireland.
