Ok Here is what I propose, we play modern day earth, but in an alternative historical timeline which shaped events with differing politics and different nations. For example:

•What if Prussia still existed?
•If the Confederates won the American Civil War
•Or if America lost their war of independence?
•If the Soviet Union never fell?
•If Napoleon remained in power until he died?

All these things which could’ve shaped the world differently. Imagine the nations that would form ou of those events. Who’s with me?

The Spanish Won the Battle of Gravelines resulting in an Invasion of England. This Places them in a position of increased power and they managed to retain the majority of their american colonies (Not U.S.A.). They eventually the Sun would Never set on the Spanish Empire.

I believe that a Southern victory in the Civil War and annexing of the North is definitely the best so far. Jamzor the Jaxxor nods.

The US is the clear victor of the War of 1812 and gains Canada
Also, Gran Colombia survives the death of Simón Bolívar and expands to fill all of Central America to Mexico and North Brazil, Peru and Ecuador.

The Dutch settlers win the Boer Wars, and as a result, Great Britain signs away the rest of South Africa to the Boer States, which are in turn incorporate themselves with the Dutch. After years of expansion, the Dutch government goes broke, and the colonists are left to fend for themselves. The South African colonists eventually break away from a weak Netherlands and form the Boer Kingdom of Zuid-Afrika.

Plausible? Probably not. Cool? I think so.

I would honestly like to see one of two things happen with Australia; either the Chinese Emperors continue exploration and discover it, setting up a puppet state there (chinese weren't big on direct colonies from memory), or the Dutch when they discover it actually colonise it instead of waiting and letting the Brits get the upper hand on them.

Confederate states will lead to some issues on racism if we're not careful. Let's be gentle on the matter.

By the way guys, on these maps... There are no Dutch... The Burgundians own the Low Countries. You'd have to pick another colonial power to spawn from. That also goes for South Africa , which I believe was planning on being Dutch as well.

I would like to personally recommend the Anglo-French Union :) but Portugal, Castille, Scotland, Ireland, Burgundy. Aragon, and aparrently Switzerland and the Papacy all had colonies... The only weird one is the Papacy... I plan to kill the papacy personally ;)

And lom, I don't really think it would be racist. People can be mature about it I think. This is purely theoretical and I think a victorious CSA would be highly nationalistic and would have a major superiority complex. They don't /have/ to be racist. If they industrialize , which they would basically have to to avoid having a crappy economy early on, they would most likely subvert or even ban slavery, though the segregation would likely continue for a long long while.

Well, South Africa could still be dutch... but just... Dutch Burgundians.

Another explanation, is that after the Dutch went bankrupt from expansion into the Pacific and elsewhere, the Burgundians invaded, and South Africa broke away.

Yes, because the Confederates were the only racist people in the world. *nod*
