  1. WI: British Louisiana

    Arguably they only need to clear the Atchafalaya outlet of the Mississippi. So would be the case with anyone on the west side of the Mississippi who didn't control New Orleans. There is though the expense of doing so and building a whole new town largely from scratch out of swamp and forest...
  2. WI: British Louisiana

    This: " This Loyalist resettlement was critical to the development of present-day Ontario, and some 10,000 refugees went to Quebec (including the Eastern Townships and modern-day Ontario). " "An unknown but substantial number of individuals did not stay; they eventually returned to the United...
  3. Personification of Surviving Kingdom of France

    All is forgiven.... I'm sure it was just a typo.
  4. Personification of Surviving Kingdom of France

    Jeanne please, not Jean.
  5. What if Carlist Spain won the the First Carlist War

    What he said! They are not just going to go away forever. They will be constant thorn in Carlos side? Hopefully his sons are more pragmatic regarding at least some compromise!
  6. American Oregon Country?

    This is a nonsensical arguement. The HBC was the principle supplier of goods for the RAC. Their increasinfg dependence of the RAC led them to believe that the company and its assets would in time by and large would be acquired by them. Hence the gentlemen's agreement between the two not to...
  7. American Oregon Country?

    Probably more like NYC and say Boston or Philly.
  8. American Oregon Country?

    Your assuming of course that Britain hasn't annexed Alaska during the Crimean war. Argueably they now have more reason to do so instead of waiting for low hanging fruit to fall into their lap.
  9. WI - A Dominion of Hawaii

    Zero. Hawai'i is too distant. And all of these possessions had their own unique tribal or clan structures.
  10. WI: Independent Jacobite Ireland?

    and whenAnne dies? Everything hits the fan.
  11. Hawaii never Annaxed

    Personally,. I don't see why an independent Kdm. Of Hawai'i with Pearl eventually having the same status as Guantanamo, Subic Bay or Limassol could not exist in the aftermath of a failed coup.
  12. Hawaii never Annaxed

    OTE="Indicus, post: 17305471, member: 81534"]By definition, British protectorates are not independent. Uhg...NO, they are, in all matters that govern their internal affairs, though their protector probably has an inordinate amount of influence. Externally they will even exercise a degree of...
  13. The development of an American Canada

    Animosity works both ways.
  14. The development of an American Canada

    That "might" explain a revolt. Theytare probably in some kind of passive resistance already.That hardly means that they are likely to throw their lot in with the colonies. Please remember that it was the American allies that were most opposed to the extent of the lands granted them. That...
  15. The development of an American Canada

    Can somebody please tell me why the Canadiens (not Quebecois), a highly conservative and traditional, largely rural tied to the land, society dominated by the RC Church and the Seigneurs are throwing their lot in with bunch of radical, from the time, republicans. They have had nearly an...
  16. WI: England won New France and Florida in Queen Anne’s War (War of the Spanish Succession) ?

    Prior to the RCMP, they were generally referred to as the Northwest Mounted Police.
  17. WI: England won New France and Florida in Queen Anne’s War (War of the Spanish Succession) ?

    We already know from our own history how the British treated the French colonials and how British settlers reacted in the aftermath of a French retreat from the continent. Having it occur earlier does not really change that fact nor does it change significantly the pace of French demographic...
  18. WI: England won New France and Florida in Queen Anne’s War (War of the Spanish Succession) ?

    Really, they only just received it from the Spanish, and its more a threat to the Caribbean than the continent. and its about as far from French settled NA as it can get. They also have plenty of other islands in the Caribbean that they have held far longer. There are plenty of British...
  19. WI: England won New France and Florida in Queen Anne’s War (War of the Spanish Succession) ?

    Without a French presence on the continent to support rebellion its unlikely they will be seen as so severe a threat. Especially if there are no strategic British military posts that need to be secured beyond the small scale frontier garrisons designed more for keeping the peace than countering...
