Carolinian Empire (An Alternate Revolution)

The Carolinian Empire is an Democratic empire consisting of all of North American and Central America, with an overall population of over half a billion people. The Empire was formed when King George the III began taxing the slave trade in 1771, and the colonists in the southern colonies began to resist this taxation.

During this time, more and more slave owners from around the world began to come to the southern colonies, which boomed the population of the colonies in America from 2,000,000 to 30,000,000, not including slaves. When the British began to send troops to quell the resistors, the people of the Carolinas declared war on the British, and then all of the colonies from Georiga to New Foundland joined then Carolinas, and on September 1, 1773, the United Colonies was formed. With a standing army of 5,000,000 men, the colonists defeated the British and the French, who declared war after several French colonies joined the Colonies, within 2 years. This came to be known as the Colonian Revolution.

Almost 2 decades later, the United Colonies then formed the Carolinian Empire, and started slaving colonies in Africa and South America.

19th Century
The Empire began to expand westward as its population boomed. Most of the Carolinians were of British and Irish decent, which is part of the basis for the national language becoming English. In 1812, the British, French and Spanish declared war on the Empire, hoping to make it crumble. Instead, they came to fight an enemy with the largest and most powerful army and navy in the world. The war only lasted 2 months, at the cost of 500,000 allied lives, and 1,672 Carolinian lives. With the allied surrender, more British, French and Spanish land was given to the Empire, including the Carribean, Canada and Louisiana
