Talk:A Shattered Nation

New POD
Okay, now that you have removed a rather improbably synopsis (destruction of DC and capture of Lincoln), I have removed the "ASB - Biased" tag. Now there has to be some fleshing out of the time line to show how winning at Gettysburg can be produce success for the Confederacy.

Be warned, this is a much overdone idea (one of a handful tried by most alternate historians!). Fresh ideas need to be well thought out to work. The Union had the edge on manpower, but the political will to fight the war came from Lincoln himself. The truth about what went on in those years is not pretty, but I will not go on about that. Do a bit of research (preferably from "notherners" who have written criiques of the war) to get a feel for what could have happened differently off the battle field.
