Overview []

In this short T.L. the world is not subject to the circumstances that lead to many of it's territorial injustices and several nations rise or downfall.

The 28 changes are-[]

  1. Darjeeling stayed in Sikkim, not India. Britain dose not screw colonial Sikkim or Bhutan around.
  2. Nepal is defeated by the British in 1816, but dose not lose it's western most provinces to British India, but to the local rajahs who used to run them before Nepal took over. 
  3. The Aztecs, Totonacas and/or Toltecs regrouped and formed a rump-state in central Mexico.
  4. The Portuguese got some of the land they wanted in southern Africa, but not the full "Mapa cor-de-rosa" claims planned. Portuguese republicanism takes a blow since the King uses it to promote his cause (as well as Portugal's), so Portugal stays a monarchy. The disgraced UK government falls and the oppersion win the election.
  5. Iceland dose a lot better than in reality. 
  6. Deseret is independent and run by Mormons.
  7. The single Spanish soldier who arrived in Mexico in 1520, carrying smallpox and thus initiated the devastating plagues that swept through the native populations of the Americas did not reach Mexico and died out at sea and his corps was thrown overboard. The 1st smallpox plague dose not hit central America.
  8. Saudi Arabia dose not unify between 1922 and 1924. The wast coast is independent and Yemen is bigger. 
  9. The Tibet-Ladakh-Mughal war of 1679-1684 was a success. Laddakh becomes part of Tibet. Tibet is generally slightly more terrestrially successful any how.
  10. Spain conquered Moorish Granada much later.
  11. The Domain of Soissons is narrowly not defeated by the Franks, but is still defeated by the Vikings.
  12. Rurick's line did not die out, so the Rurakids, not the Romarnovs ruled in Russia until 1917.
  13. Russia did not betray China over the 1689 Treaty of Nerchinsk  and did not annex Outer Manchuria or interfere in Romania's Moldavia and Bessabarabia provinces. 
  14. There is a communist coup in the north of England and Glasgow during the Great Depression. The East End of London also sees some anti-Jewish pogroms.
  15. The Inca got there act together, stopped their civil war for a while and defeated the Spanish Conquistadors.
  16. The Itza Mayan kingdom got it's act together, stopped their civil war for a while and defeated the Spanish Conquistadors.
  17. Afghanistan is literally Afghanistan. The only major minority is the Hazara in it's interior. The Tajikistan and alike were not conquered or conquer the Pushtu. 
  18. Wazristan stays independent and is not annexed to British India.
  19. The Conference of Berlin in 1884–1885, lets Portugal take over the whole Kingdom of Kongo, not just the south and center. Portugal abolished the title of king of Kongo, but it remains a sperate colony outside Angola.
  20. Florida and California were more heavily colonized by Spaniards, They are now independent Hispanic nations. American settlement has added to these nations' culture and peoples to. 
  21. The Arab Kingdom of Egypt and later Ottoman Egypt made more effort to colonise northern Sudan and Al Kufra. The Mahdi Army dose battle with them, not the British, who stay in south Sudan.
  22. Kurdistan becomes reconised nation in 1923.
  23. Ukraine becomes a reconised nation in 1922.
  24. Quebec becomes independent in 2000.
  25. Uruguay and Paraguay are not treated like sh*t, all those silly Hispanic border wars don't occur and the Falklands issue is resolved.
  26. The Soviet communists fatally wound the Russian Orthadox church in Central Asia and Siberia's native population and both Islam (in Tartarstan, Azerbaijan, ect) and paganism in Siberia take over and replace it as the principal post Soviet Russian Religions. Catholics, Romanian Orthadox and Lutherans also gain a bit.
  27. Patagonia's history is compleatly screwed up!
  28. Nauru is 1% bigger and 1% more populous than in real life real life.

Sino-Anglo-Russian-Persian trade increases in Baluchistan, Afghanistan and Central Asia between 1850-1910. There is some local resistance, but trouble is low due to no overt or official colonialism taking place.The rather isolationist local emirs only worry about sleazy outside trade cartels in this world. Utah and California pool resources more often in the face of 'sinners' from the USA and Mexico. Portugal and Spain start to re-arm and prepares to rebuild it's empire.emir Dost Mahommed, Bukhara gives up it's vassals in the region.

The Utah War (also known as the Utah Expedition, Utah Campaign, Buchanan's Blunder, the Mormon War, or the Mormon Rebellion) lasts from May 1857 until July 1858. Neither side wanted to back now or compromise. It is a short and bloody affair leading to Utah's temporary de jure independence between 1857 and 1858. After that it became Utah Territory for the next 40 years. It lost the land that is now in the east of OTL Colorado to the the ATL/OTL Territory of Colorado, but not the rest of the Utah Territory. Utah would become a state of the USA, but biger than OTL, since it had retained the eastern highlands of Nevada after 1865. William Walker in alliance with local rebels overthrows the government of Nicaragua in 1856 and proclaims himself president. He reintroduces slavery.

The native tribal folk of the territory on which modern Vladivostok is located are the Udege minority, and a sub-minority called the Taz which emerged through members of the indigenous Udege mixing with the nearby Chinese and Nanai. The ancient and undiveloped port of In Chinese, the city was known since the Qing Dynasty as Hǎishēnwǎi (海參崴, meaning "sea cucumber cliffs") grew in 1860 due to the local gold, fir, fishing and logging, which picked up sugnifgatly between 1865 and 1875.

The colonies of the Queen Charlotte Islands and Stikine Territory are set up during the 1862-64 gold rush. When Merger occurred the remaining miners in Stikine, most of whom were Americans, were dismayed, rioted and declared U.D.I. Americans generally rioted across the region and the Russian held coastal region around Harlequin Lake was taken over by a few riotous ex-miners, ethnic Americans and a small unit of American troops. After the 6 month farce, Canada gave the territory to the USA, which also bought the Harlequin Lake region and all parts of the Alaskan Panhandle West of Stikine that Christmas for for $1.2 million. The French adventurer, Orelie-Antoine de Tounens, had declares himself King of Araucania,in 1862 to Chile's disgust. The British settlement has grown since the 1660's by about 25% in all directions, but is now unable to grow further. The British tactically back the Machupe nation and use it as a buffer around the hiterland of the colony of Charleston in Patagonia (which also included the Fauklands after 1870 and south Georgia after 1875). The town of Charleston had about 8,500 people. Port Desire also had a population of 7,500.

  • Haiti and Florida become fearful of the re-establishment of Spain as colonial power on its border, gave refuge and supplies to the revolutionaries from the Dominican Republic. The United States, then fighting its own Civil War, vigorously protested the Spanish nation's neo-colonial actions in 1863, fearing Spanish involvment in East Florida. The Battle of Gettysburg  was fought July 1–3, 1863, in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania between Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War. The Union forces win as in real life. C.S.A. politician Judah P.

It the confederate force twice as large as in reality. Formal deployment of the French Foreign Legion troop and units of the Second Mexican Empire occur, rather than the few rogue iderviduals as in reality. Austria and Belgium then formally off aid to there allie, Mexico. Southern Texas would hold out until May 1st, 1867. The Japanese Boshin War civil war (War of the Year of the Yang Earth Dragon) was fought from 1868 to 1869 between forces of the ruling Tokugawa Shogunate and those seeking to return former political powers to the imperial court.

  • The Confederation League pressed for British Colombia to join Canada, which had been created out of three British North American colonies in 1867 (the Province of Canada, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick). Several factors motivated this agitation, including the fear of annexation to the United States, Russia's economic re-interest in the region, heavy rioting by hacked-off Native American Indians, the overwhelming debt created by rapid population growth, the need for government-funded services to support this population, and the economic depression caused by the end of the gold rush The C.S.A. surrenders, but Florida, who is not racist and of escaped C.S.A. Negro slaves, is reconised by all sides as a indipendent hispanic nation (ethnicly it is sort of like our Dominican Reublic).

Under British pressure Argentina gives the southern 1/2 of Kingdom of Araucanía and Patagonia recognition and independence, under the rule of Orelie-Antoine de Tounens. Chile did not want or or agree to the treaty and conquers the part that is in OTL Chile. A hint is dropped that the sparsely populated southern 1/4 of the nation is open to Argentine or Chilean rule, provided the don't lay in to the British enclave or take anymore of  the Kingdom of Araucanía there after. The Paplelcy and the Paple Territoris are annexed to Italy and and San Marino joins Italy willingly.
