 * British Louisiana - Disease in 1762 prevents the British takeover of Cuba, preventing the Spanish loss of Florida. Britain takes Louisiana instead.
 * Cabotia and Brasil - The Castilian queen does not support Christopher Columbus who is not lucky in France either. The English and the Portuguese discover the Americas before 1500, though.
 * Federalist Failure - The Federalists lose in their attempts to ratify the new Constitution, and the United States falls apart, leading to the rise of a Virginian "empire".
 * Greater Colombia - San Martin manage to convince Bolívar he still has a role to perform in South America, letting Bolívar more room to prevent Venezuela seceeding from Colombia, and concentrate in freeing the Caribbean.
 * Oswaldia John F. Kennedy wasn't assassinated, the shot missed and killed Governor Connally instead. Because JFK was around to see the Space Race to completion, and it took a very different route...
 * President Gaitan - In 1950, Gaitán is elected president of Colombia. A populist leftish government, but supported by the CIA as a way to prevent true comunism to become a major power in Latin America, Gaitan is neither one of the best or worst presidents.  But butterflies from him surviving 1948, also prevented Castro to become leader in Cuba.
 * Pure Arabica - The Bubonic Plague decimates Europe, killing nearly 2/3 of the population and reducing the Renaissance to ashes. The world was ill prepared for the Arab aggression and resurgence.
 * Rebellion of 61 - This althist has two primary PODs. In the first, the nascent Confederate States of America is defeated at the (First) Battle of Bull Run, ending the brief Rebellion of '61.  In the second, the Komei Emperor of Japan lives several decades longer than in our time line.
 * Viva California - The Mexican-American War was a bust. The California Gold Rush causes a rush of  American population to the valleys of California.  The Mormons are all Spanish speaking and the US's sentiment of Manifest Destiny is turned Northward, at least at first.
 * Zera - Some hominids reached the Americas before the modern Homo sapiens. This lead to a different fauna evolution in the Americas allowing later come Homo sapiens to domesticate suitable burden animals.
