One major change might be that they take Macedonia before Serbia does, and therefore see no reason to join the Central Powers to get back at Serbia, allowing them to feel out the way the conflict goes, before finally choosing the Entente in order to snatch up Constantinople and Thrace before Greece can, and they keep Dobruja as they fought on the same side as Romania.

not really Canada simply wasn´t that important - ther might be an russia-US war over Alaska - i also see the posibility that the US government decides to buy all slaves and preventing the civil war that way - and perhabs a send back to africa policy
@@baronbrummbar8691 there might not be a us russia war over alaska the russians might just have to give up alaska anyway to the usa due to the sheer amount of american settlers coming in also, they were poor after the crimean war and alaska wasent really that worth much to them so the purchase might still happen
The crazy thing is that 1812 is probably the only real improvement to the USA's standing, since taking Canada would lead to taking more of Mexico. Everything past that is either relatively minor gains or delving into the realm of semi-historical fanfiction. As fun as it is to imagine the entirety of Latin America and Europe steadily offering themselves to become states following the Spanish American War and WWII, or Liberia actually being a foothold in the scramble for Africa, or a complete annexation of Japan and later Korea and Vietnam as an overcharged hegemony, disbelief needs to be suspended and that doesn't usually include Australia hopping on the bandwagon of former British colonies joining an alternate history USA.
I actually disagree. Northern Democrats and Republicans absolutely hated the idea of annexing half of Mexico because it’d give more power to the southern states. With Canada under the union, I feel the Mexican American war would have obviously still resulted in an American victory, but the US wouldn’t have taken as much land due to cultural reasons and the political climate in the US.
Even an Imperialist USA wouldn’t annex Japan, Korea, Or Vietnam. It was never in there interest to do so. These places have WAY more native populations than the Philippines, infact, Japan only had around 50 million less people than America proper at the time. Not to mention all 3 (well atleast Japan and Korea) were industrialized. Everything else is atleast plausible, even if unlikely.

1. I think it’s interesting that you have Canada joining the US after the war of 1812. I personally think it would’ve been more likely for those colonies to join the American revolution instead because they had the option to at the time. 2. I thought that the US made an offer to purchase Greenland in 1867 but they declined. I also didn’t know Iceland was also up for grabs at any point. 3. The US also talked about purchasing Jamaica, Belize, and the rest of the West Indies Federation in the early 1900s, so I agree it makes sense that they might’ve bundled them with Greenland instead. 4. When the US won the Spanish-American war, this is also when they got Guam irl! This is an awesome video and I’d love to see more! One thing I’ve wondered is what would statehood look like for those territories, and currently controversial territories like Puerto Rico and Washington DC. I’d also love to see what things would look like if “everything went right for the European Union” L
Best case for Paraguay is to attack Argentina only and unify La Plata. Considering how many years Paraguay managed to face off against the Alliance, it's not unreasonable to imagine a scenario where Solano Lopez marches on Buenos Aires and declares himself President of La Plata with the help of Argentinian Federales, assuming Brazil stands neutral.
that war was pretty much doomed from the start tho, napoleon had basically no proper army since they all died in russia and he was forced to spread his already poor army very thin, he had no chance. a better what-if would be what if he hadn't invaded russia at all Edit: nvm wrong napoleon and wrong war thought you were talking about 1813
What if when the US realized that Britain and France were increasingly unable to pay their loans after WW1, US decided to simply cancel the loans? In return for a lot of real estate, obviously. Maybe France having to give up Indochina, W Africa etc. while Britain giving up S Africa, Rhodesia, Gibraltar, etc.
I feel like that wouldn’t be perfect for the US. The reason the U.S. has been stable unlike other Superpowers of the past is because they haven’t ever had a world spanning geographic empire. They haven’t had to deal with revolts left and right and mass political instability.
I love this series! I think an interesting country to do this with would actually be Greece. I think having a Greece which completely wins the Greco-Turkish war establishing Megali Greece could have some really interesting impacts, especially during World War 2.
Greece becomes a great power with the annexation of Anatolia and established relationships with Armenians and Assyrians and possibly wage war against Arabs Muslims to support the Eastern Christians
@@oyungogdfrust4136 Yeah I can see them annexing the western Anatolian coast and later Cyprus, plus having all of their neighbors significantly weakened in some way, making them a regional power, but I just cannot see them becoming a Great Power, at least in the 20th and probably 21st century.
@@KaiHung-wv3ulThere's actually three points of history you could use: 1) mega Alexander doesn't die 2) The Byzantine empire doesn't get involved in the Eichonomachy . 3) The modern one where Benizelos doesn't lose in the elections And the thing is that it's possible to imagine that since most of the time it was bad luck that lead to the downfall (Alexander dying and Benizelos losing) as opposed to actual bad descicions (Eichonomachy)
Do the Roman Empire one but only after the empire was split by Theodosius the Great. That scenario might much more interesting since the Romans would have to face much more challenges than say having the scenario start from Augustus
The Usa doesn’t win the independence war and Poseidon skins the entire American continent into the sea almost certainly causing America to never rise to power.
I mean there would just never be a USA. Without French support and propaganda, any attempts at independence would be quickly shut down by the UK. Even if we start in 1812, in the worst case the USA pisses of France enough that the English and French temporarily stop fighting to instead take care of the USA. Then quickly the USA is attacked from multiple sides by different colonial powers and divided between them in a scramble for North America.
Funny thing is, in 1812, the british that arrived to "help" arrived 2 years late in 1814. The war in Canada was already over and ended with the burning the Washington DC. So, the British not willing to return without doing anything went to invade Florida and suffered a humiliating defeat.... Your version of the Florida landing was actually pretty accurate with reality.
Really nice video, very entertaining to watch lol. Btw I was wondering, could you perhaps do Czechoslovakia (starting with the Czechoslovak legions during WW1) someday?
2:01 kind of weird to charactorize canada as being "filled with british loyalists" given by the time of 1812, lower canada(majority french canadian) still had a higher population then the rest of canada combined.
The remarkable thing is, this doesn't even change very much. You could say that things already went 90% perfectly for the US, aside from getting large swaths of mostly frozen wasteland.
The only major changes I can think of here are the US gaining Canada from the War of 1812 and China being under control of the Nationalists. And really only the latter has major consequences for today given Canada and the US are enough allies that whether Canada was under direct US control or not doesn't really matter. China being under the Communists is what allowed the occurrence of the Korean War (and the 38th parallel split still there today), Vietnam War (and the fall of Saigon), and the current looming second Cold War with China and Russia.
@@gameragodzillahe new cold war between China and US will happen even in this timeline simply because of china's sheer size and manpower. They still will want to be the ruler of Asia and will not like America's dominance in asia. What might be different is a democratic china would be less expansionist, improving it's relations with its neighbours (particularly india). Allowing it to be seen more friendly and welcomed in southeast Asia and india significantly reducing american influence here
I think the modern world would change since America wouldnt need to rely on Middle Eastern oil as Canada likely has a lot of oil fields too, some larger than Middle Eastern ones.
@@mrsillytacosAmerica produces a lot of its own oil (to the point of being the world’s largest oil producer). Europe and Asia are far more reliant on Middle Eastern oil than the US.
5:50 Bit of a correction, but there has been at least one proposal from the U.S to buy Greenland from Denmark. It was after WW2 where the U.S occupied Greenland, and the Americans offered about $100 million for it, Denmark refused.
There were discussions in 1867, 1910, and 2019. With an actual proposal in the amount of $100M ($1B inflated) in 1946 that was denied. So you are correct there.
A fun contrast to your Three North American Superpowers video. I think the only thing that would make the US more dominant would be not if the nationalists won in China, but it came to more of a draw with the nationalists in the south and the PRC in the north. They could both industrialize and become more capitalist while still having tense relations, but maybe the US could play the diplomat and keep peace between the two while reaping good trade relations from them both, but neither could become a superpower.
I mean the same happened to the British you forgot about Pax Britanica being a thing? Also about Russia it basically unlike British and Americans tried to convert people into becoming Russian which never succeeded like the Belarussians and Ukranians are seperate identities and might share similarities but are not Russian in the slightest.
@@GwainSagaFanChannel Not everything went perfect for britain. If we won the hundred years war, won the american revolution, won the first boer war, kept hannover, took more land from china, prevented germany from existing etc then things would have went perfect.
Nice video. I would like to see the same happening to Austria in a future video. It would be great as Austria was pretty much the great power with the worst luck ever.
I would love a video on a really small country like my country Iceland. Basically a video on a country which could never become a super power or evan influencial irl but in a perfect world could become a great power.
Here are some exciting ideas for future alternate history scenarios: What if the Hohenzollern were the ones to rule the Holy Roman Empire instead of the Hapburgs? Since the Hohenzollerns were Margraves of Brandenburg, a principality of the HRE from 1157 to 1806 that played a pivotal role in the history that formed Germany and around central Europe. And there were monarchs and Kings in Prussia ( 1701-1772). In 1701, the title of King in Prussia was granted without having a duchy title. The Duchy of Prussia is usually placed higher as a kingdom within Poland but recognized as a kingdom by the Holy Roman Emperor due to the time when monarchs were believed to be given divine right to rule their kingdoms or empires, the highest sovereign in the West. Is there the slightest chance the Hohenzollerns will win the election for HRE ( Holy Roman Emperor) and become the new dynasty in the HRE ( Holy Roman Empire)? If so, how could the Hohenzollerns win the election for the emperorship for the HRE, and which members of the Hohenzollern dynasty are the best candidates for Holy Roman Emperor? What would the HRE under the Hohenzollerns instead of the Hapburg dynasty be like, and would the HRE be centralized and possibly united Germany in the middle ages? What if Ethiopia, under the Solomic dynasty, manages to unify Africa during the pre-scamble of the African era? Ethiopia was known for resisting European colonization and was one of the first African empires to defeat a European power, Italy, during the Second Italo- Ethiopian War, resulting from the Ethiopian War winning the Second Italo-Ethiopan War. Similar to how the Japanese defeated the Russians during the Russo-Japanese War. Ethiopia was not known for that. Before Ethiopia was an empire before the Solomic ever took the mantle as Emperor, Ethiopia used to control a sizeable territorial state and access to vast trade routes linking the Roman Empire to the Middle East and India. What would be the perfect opportunity for the Ethiopian Empire to unite Africa or some of it? Is it either West, South, North, or East Africa? How could the Ethiopians unite the African kingdoms and empires to sway them to join their cause against European colonization? Would there be a united Africa under the Solomonic dynasty or a federation of African kingdoms and empires become states, similar to the German Confederation? What if Joan of Arc had been rescued instead of being burned at the stake for heresy and had managed to unite all of France and the French people to drive the English out of France? Could this victory and her survival in one piece make Joan of Arc Queen of France? If you don't think so, please explain to me why. But if Joan of Arc was created to become the Queen of France, what would history be like, and what France be like under Jaon of Arc as Queen of France? Would there be a royal House of Joan of Arc in France? How would it be possible with the House of Valois being the current royal house of France, and how would the nobility and aristocrats see Joan of Arc as the Queen of a united France? What if Novgorod became the leading power it was and could unify Russia instead of Muscovy? How Russia be like under Novogord as the capital, and what type of government would Russia be like? Would there be a Tsar of Russia or a Grand Prince of Russia? Because Novgorod did have grand princes, they were elected. And how this change for the rest of World History with Russia united by Novgorod, and what were the consequences of it? What if the Marathas under the Bhonsle dynasty ruled the Kingdom of Mewar and united India during the 11th century instead of the 16th century? And is it possible for a united India to expand outside the Indian subcontinent to its next borders in South Asia or beyond its borders in South Asia? What makes this alternate time interesting is the Marathas forming an alliance with the Byzantine Empire by having one of the Chhaparti ( Emperor) marry a Byzantine princess from the Macedonian dynasty. The question is, what would be the purpose of the alliance, and how this alliance be beneficial for both the Marathas and the Byzantines? And how many people react to this marriage, and which ones will respond to it and be against it, and for what reasons? Would the union between the Maratha and the Byzantines form an Indo-Roman Empire, a Maratha-Byzantine Empire, or just the Byzantine Empire with a different dynasty? And would the Marthas be able to rule both Constantinople in Byzantium and India at the same time? Would there be co-rulers of this empire, or you don't think a realm like this wouldn't be possible. What if Joanna Elisabeth of Holstein, the mother of Catherine of The Great, had not died in exile but became a regent for grandson Paul I of Russia? There have been some speculations that Catherine the Great wasn't a good mother to her two children and only used them as a political investment and never had an emotional connection to them. If Joanna Elisbateh had returned from exile and made herself a regent for Paul or Alexi, possibly Paul? The question is, how would Joanna become the regent of her first-born grandson? Would she be the mother figure Paul wanted from Catherine, or she just be emotionally manipulative and exploit Paul's "behavior issues" to control him with her with real power or overthrow Paul and make herself the new monarch of Russia? Which scenarios do you like best, Mr. Possible, and which are your favorites, and which ones have you never heard of in the alternate history community. Also, have you ever heard of Rani Lakshimbal, aka Rani of Jhansi?
I would love to see a video about the Hohenzollerns too but it's because they're an inside joke with my friend from an EU4 game so I think it would be funny to see a video about them
I really like this scenario! I kinda want to see one for the british empire as it would be intresting to see if they would maintain their hegemony. hm perphaps one for china too, where it advances technoglocially speaking just as fast as the europeans
Wha if everything went perfect for Mexico (since their independence in 1821), I think is a very good scenario because Mexico had too many troubles on the 19th century, so it could be quite interesting
In this scenario, wouldn't it be better for the US to keep the Philippines just in-case they needed a forward base in Asia? Two of the largest nation, population-wise, are in Asia, so surely a huge territory there would be nice to contain the possible rise of competition.
In reality the US already has ports and bases in several countries in East Asia. Not saying owning the Philippines would be bad or good, just realistically the US wouldn't need to own them to build up a substantial force in that area, as our reality being the proof.
And that two countries are the only countries that would probably beat USA in every field. Russia is gone case. EU is already a puppet. Japan not powerful enough same for Indonesia and Brazil
Can you consider the following scenario: "Alternate United and Peaceful Balkan nations in the 19th and 20th century" For example: -No Bulgaro-Serbian war in 1885 -The Second Balkan war doesn't happen, because there are slight border changes of the treaty(Serbia gets Adriatic coast, Bulgaria gets undisputed part of Macedonia promised in the Treaty, Greece gets Southern Albania, Albania gets parts of southwestern Kosovo) and thus the Balkan union is preserved -In ww1 the five Balkan nations fight on the same side and vecause of that we get a different treaty, that means Trianon is not so harsh and Hungary keeps parts of Southern Slovakia and Northern Transylvania, Bulgaria gets the entire region of Macedonia and Eastern Thrace, Greece gets the part of Western Anatolia(which it didn't preserve in the OTL), Serbia makes Yugoslavia without Macedonia and parts of Kosovo(as discussed earlier) and Romania gets Banat, Southern Transylvania and Besserabia; -In ww2 the only possible candidate for the Hungarians Might be Hungary, hungry for old land, but I digress, because they don't want a repeat of ww1, four against one, so the borders will probably remain the same after electric boogaloo; -If Hungary didn't join the Axis, the only communist nations in the Cold war might be Hungary(75%) and Romania (99%, and they will be stripped out of Moldova), because the Soviets will bring Communism to the closest nationa to them, while Bulgaria, Greece and Yugoslavia join Nato(now that I think of it, Hungary might become the Yugoslavia of our timeline, the neutral state together with Austria, very funny😂) -After the cold war we get the same picture, no bloody conflicts on the Balkans hopefully in the 21th century and everybody lives happily ever after, for now!
3 part Alternate Post ww1 What if Imperial Federation formed. What if the US of Austria formed. What if the Ottman Empire was Partitioned, allowing for a Resurgent Byzantium.
Omg a timeline where reconstruction went well and they completely fixed all the souths institutional problems, land redistribution would be great for improving wealth and the standards of living
Very interesting - I totally agree with most of your assumptions. One thing that I would change in your rosy history is the time of acquisition of Cuba. During the lead-up to the Civil War, there were several groups who wanted to annex Cuba and make it another state. In the real timeline, one of the main reasons for rejecting that proposal was it would upset the balance between slave and free states... this was also why we didn't acquire more of Mexico during the 1840s. Since your timeline shows us expanding farther into Mexico and having all of Canada (presumably as free states), I think the chances that we would annex (or just buy) Cuba would be near certain.
Hard to make but what about "what if everything weng perfect for europe" ? It is so broad that im sure you can find an interesting angle to it with maybe visiting an earlier european union, avoiding à world war or finishing it faster
Nova Scotia joining the 13 colonies, not to mention Florida and the Bahamas may be within the realm of possibility too as there were sympathies there to the rebels
Surprised you didn't touch on the Filibusters in Central America, or William Walker's near conquest of the area. If the US Congress had given Walker troops, then the region would have been, if not US territories, then under the US sphere.
Very cool video, however I'm disappointed you haven't considered US influence after WW1 possibly turning WW2 on it's head. The US supported the idea of deciding borders based on ethnic lines. This would make a possibly stronger Germany probably still falling to a political extreme over Alsace-Lorraine but most likely putting Hungary on the Allied side for WW2 and other stuff I'm too braindead to think of. This american WW1 peace ideal would be more easily achieved if the US was a colossal power like in the video. I get it though that these are super hypothetical and unnecessarily complicated concepts which is why they are not explored, but would've appreciated if you mentioned the wacky possibilities.
As a bachelor degree on East Asian Studies, do you think you can do a "What if everything went perfect for china" i wonder how would it work and what year would you take to start changing things.
Honestly a nationalist China would have prolly been worse for the US as they would have gotten a 40 year head start on industrialization. Might have helped in the Cold War but today we’d prolly be dealing with a richer more industrial and more populated China
I think that realistically in this scenario, the US would either try to take parts of Siberia once they found rich resources in Alaska or make puppet nations out of the land at the first chance they got.
Russia was an American ally at the time, it’d also be a very expensive war with supply lines stretching thin. I doubt that they would try and backstab their ally for Siberian land that won’t make a profit until long after their terms end.
We would be without Rambo movies and books since there was no Vietnam war. However Harry turtledoves Southern victory books would be much more interesting with increased territorial gains to factor into his series.
We might get an alternative Rambo movie where the Vietnam War is replaced with a war in the middle East and or Africa accept the USA could win that alternative war.
I feel like it's hard to make a "what if everything went perfect for America" story without just repeating the current timeline.

2. I thought that the US made an offer to purchase Greenland in 1867 but they declined. I also didn’t know Iceland was also up for grabs at any point.
3. The US also talked about purchasing Jamaica, Belize, and the rest of the West Indies Federation in the early 1900s, so I agree it makes sense that they might’ve bundled them with Greenland instead.
4. When the US won the Spanish-American war, this is also when they got Guam irl!
This is an awesome video and I’d love to see more! One thing I’ve wondered is what would statehood look like for those territories, and currently controversial territories like Puerto Rico and Washington DC.
I’d also love to see what things would look like if “everything went right for the European Union”

Outside the parameters of the thought experiment, which STARTS in 1812.
Interesting. Good point about "soft power" having a significant impact geopolitically.
Do best case scenario for Paraguay next! I really want to see how far Paraguay could've gone if they won the war of the tripple alliance!
Best case for Paraguay is to attack Argentina only and unify La Plata. Considering how many years Paraguay managed to face off against the Alliance, it's not unreasonable to imagine a scenario where Solano Lopez marches on Buenos Aires and declares himself President of La Plata with the help of Argentinian Federales, assuming Brazil stands neutral.
he already made a video about Paraguay: What if paraguay became the Prussia of South America?
What if Napoleon III won the Franco-Prussian war and the Second French Empire survived into the 21st Century?
Now that's an interesting story.
No German empire and Napoleon's legacy carries on.
He'd be seen as a higher being or god and people would mostly listen to him with no question.
that war was pretty much doomed from the start tho, napoleon had basically no proper army since they all died in russia and he was forced to spread his already poor army very thin, he had no chance. a better what-if would be what if he hadn't invaded russia at all
Edit: nvm wrong napoleon and wrong war thought you were talking about 1813
@@BinInABinwrong Napoleon
It's kinda like "what if everything went perfectly for the roman city state" it's basically what happened, but maybe slightly better
What if when the US realized that Britain and France were increasingly unable to pay their loans after WW1, US decided to simply cancel the loans? In return for a lot of real estate, obviously. Maybe France having to give up Indochina, W Africa etc. while Britain giving up S Africa, Rhodesia, Gibraltar, etc.
Definetely not Gibraltar or South Africa but I'd see them give up the Colonies in the Carribean and far east Pacific
I feel like that wouldn’t be perfect for the US. The reason the U.S. has been stable unlike other Superpowers of the past is because they haven’t ever had a world spanning geographic empire. They haven’t had to deal with revolts left and right and mass political instability.
Yes! I love this new series of yours. For the next one do what if everything went perfectly for Austria following Franz Joseph's ascension in 1848😊😊😊
I love this series! I think an interesting country to do this with would actually be Greece. I think having a Greece which completely wins the Greco-Turkish war establishing Megali Greece could have some really interesting impacts, especially during World War 2.
Greece becomes a great power with the annexation of Anatolia and established relationships with Armenians and Assyrians and possibly wage war against Arabs Muslims to support the Eastern Christians
If greece would achieve megali, germany would probably invade what's left of turkey as a way to strike at the middle east and caucasus.
@@alejandromaldonado6159 even for a “everything goes perfect” video thats MEGA delusion
@@oyungogdfrust4136 Yeah I can see them annexing the western Anatolian coast and later Cyprus, plus having all of their neighbors significantly weakened in some way, making them a regional power, but I just cannot see them becoming a Great Power, at least in the 20th and probably 21st century.
@@KaiHung-wv3ulThere's actually three points of history you could use:
1) mega Alexander doesn't die
2) The Byzantine empire doesn't get involved in the Eichonomachy .
3) The modern one where Benizelos doesn't lose in the elections
And the thing is that it's possible to imagine that since most of the time it was bad luck that lead to the downfall (Alexander dying and Benizelos losing) as opposed to actual bad descicions (Eichonomachy)
Do it with Italy (or the Roman Empire).
Do the Roman Empire one but only after the empire was split by Theodosius the Great.
That scenario might much more interesting since the Romans would have to face much more challenges than say having the scenario start from Augustus
No, do it for mussolinis italy, and then africa will become a big brazilian style melting pot :v , I wanna see jolof rizotto rice darn it!

I wonder what a “What if everything went TERRIBLE” video on the US would look like
The Usa doesn’t win the independence war and Poseidon skins the entire American continent into the sea almost certainly causing America to never rise to power.
US lost to the British, the end
If they kept the Articles of Confederation and broke up soon after.
I mean there would just never be a USA. Without French support and propaganda, any attempts at independence would be quickly shut down by the UK.
Even if we start in 1812, in the worst case the USA pisses of France enough that the English and French temporarily stop fighting to instead take care of the USA. Then quickly the USA is attacked from multiple sides by different colonial powers and divided between them in a scramble for North America.
😅
Britain would now be the largest nation on Earth🇬🇧 🇬🇧

Cool series. You could do one for the Byzantine Empire
Funny thing is, in 1812, the british that arrived to "help" arrived 2 years late in 1814. The war in Canada was already over and ended with the burning the Washington DC. So, the British not willing to return without doing anything went to invade Florida and suffered a humiliating defeat.... Your version of the Florida landing was actually pretty accurate with reality.
Really nice video, very entertaining to watch lol. Btw I was wondering, could you perhaps do Czechoslovakia (starting with the Czechoslovak legions during WW1) someday?
2:01 kind of weird to charactorize canada as being "filled with british loyalists" given by the time of 1812, lower canada(majority french canadian) still had a higher population then the rest of canada combined.
The remarkable thing is, this doesn't even change very much. You could say that things already went 90% perfectly for the US, aside from getting large swaths of mostly frozen wasteland.
Yes. Besides what was stated in this video I would have also added America having a nuclear monopoly for an extra several years.
The only major changes I can think of here are the US gaining Canada from the War of 1812 and China being under control of the Nationalists. And really only the latter has major consequences for today given Canada and the US are enough allies that whether Canada was under direct US control or not doesn't really matter. China being under the Communists is what allowed the occurrence of the Korean War (and the 38th parallel split still there today), Vietnam War (and the fall of Saigon), and the current looming second Cold War with China and Russia.
@@gameragodzillahe new cold war between China and US will happen even in this timeline simply because of china's sheer size and manpower. They still will want to be the ruler of Asia and will not like America's dominance in asia.
What might be different is a democratic china would be less expansionist, improving it's relations with its neighbours (particularly india). Allowing it to be seen more friendly and welcomed in southeast Asia and india significantly reducing american influence here
I think the modern world would change since America wouldnt need to rely on Middle Eastern oil as Canada likely has a lot of oil fields too, some larger than Middle Eastern ones.
@@mrsillytacosAmerica produces a lot of its own oil (to the point of being the world’s largest oil producer). Europe and Asia are far more reliant on Middle Eastern oil than the US.
i really like this genre of yours!
5:50 Bit of a correction, but there has been at least one proposal from the U.S to buy Greenland from Denmark. It was after WW2 where the U.S occupied Greenland, and the Americans offered about $100 million for it, Denmark refused.
There were discussions in 1867, 1910, and 2019. With an actual proposal in the amount of $100M ($1B inflated) in 1946 that was denied. So you are correct there.
A fun contrast to your Three North American Superpowers video.
I think the only thing that would make the US more dominant would be not if the nationalists won in China, but it came to more of a draw with the nationalists in the south and the PRC in the north. They could both industrialize and become more capitalist while still having tense relations, but maybe the US could play the diplomat and keep peace between the two while reaping good trade relations from them both, but neither could become a superpower.
Can you do this for Russia England and France as well in the future😅😊
I mean the same happened to the British you forgot about Pax Britanica being a thing? Also about Russia it basically unlike British and Americans tried to convert people into becoming Russian which never succeeded like the Belarussians and Ukranians are seperate identities and might share similarities but are not Russian in the slightest.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
2:13 you captured the american spirit perfectly man! 😂😂😂😂
I like how this timeline is mostly just "what if the war of 1812 wasn't a draw"
Here are some exciting ideas for future alternate history scenarios:
What if the Hohenzollern were the ones to rule the Holy Roman Empire instead of the Hapburgs? Since the Hohenzollerns were Margraves of Brandenburg, a principality of the HRE from 1157 to 1806 that played a pivotal role in the history that formed Germany and around central Europe. And there were monarchs and Kings in Prussia ( 1701-1772). In 1701, the title of King in Prussia was granted without having a duchy title. The Duchy of Prussia is usually placed higher as a kingdom within Poland but recognized as a kingdom by the Holy Roman Emperor due to the time when monarchs were believed to be given divine right to rule their kingdoms or empires, the highest sovereign in the West. Is there the slightest chance the Hohenzollerns will win the election for HRE
( Holy Roman Emperor) and become the new dynasty in the HRE ( Holy Roman Empire)? If so, how could the Hohenzollerns win the election for the emperorship for the HRE, and which members of the Hohenzollern dynasty are the best candidates for Holy Roman Emperor? What would the HRE under the Hohenzollerns instead of the Hapburg dynasty be like, and would the HRE be centralized and possibly united Germany in the middle ages?
What if Ethiopia, under the Solomic dynasty, manages to unify Africa during the pre-scamble of the African era? Ethiopia was known for resisting European colonization and was one of the first African empires to defeat a European power, Italy, during the Second Italo- Ethiopian War, resulting from the Ethiopian War winning the Second Italo-Ethiopan War. Similar to how the Japanese defeated the Russians during the Russo-Japanese War. Ethiopia was not known for that. Before Ethiopia was an empire before the Solomic ever took the mantle as Emperor, Ethiopia used to control a sizeable territorial state and access to vast trade routes linking the Roman Empire to the Middle East and India. What would be the perfect opportunity for the Ethiopian Empire to unite Africa or some of it? Is it either West, South, North, or East Africa? How could the Ethiopians unite the African kingdoms and empires to sway them to join their cause against European colonization? Would there be a united Africa under the Solomonic dynasty or a federation of African kingdoms and empires become states, similar to the German Confederation?
What if Joan of Arc had been rescued instead of being burned at the stake for heresy and had managed to unite all of France and the French people to drive the English out of France? Could this victory and her survival in one piece make Joan of Arc Queen of France? If you don't think so, please explain to me why. But if Joan of Arc was created to become the Queen of France, what would history be like, and what France be like under Jaon of Arc as Queen of France? Would there be a royal House of Joan of Arc in France? How would it be possible with the House of Valois being the current royal house of France, and how would the nobility and aristocrats see Joan of Arc as the Queen of a united France?
What if Novgorod became the leading power it was and could unify Russia instead of Muscovy? How Russia be like under Novogord as the capital, and what type of government would Russia be like? Would there be a Tsar of Russia or a Grand Prince of Russia? Because Novgorod did have grand princes, they were elected. And how this change for the rest of World History with Russia united by Novgorod, and what were the consequences of it?
What if the Marathas under the Bhonsle dynasty ruled the Kingdom of Mewar and united India during the 11th century instead of the 16th century? And is it possible for a united India to expand outside the Indian subcontinent to its next borders in South Asia or beyond its borders in South Asia? What makes this alternate time interesting is the Marathas forming an alliance with the Byzantine Empire by having one of the Chhaparti ( Emperor) marry a Byzantine princess from the Macedonian dynasty. The question is, what would be the purpose of the alliance, and how this alliance be beneficial for both the Marathas and the Byzantines? And how many people react to this marriage, and which ones will respond to it and be against it, and for what reasons?
Would the union between the Maratha and the Byzantines form an Indo-Roman Empire, a Maratha-Byzantine Empire, or just the Byzantine Empire with a different dynasty? And would the Marthas be able to rule both Constantinople in Byzantium and India at the same time? Would there be co-rulers of this empire, or you don't think a realm like this wouldn't be possible.
What if Joanna Elisabeth of Holstein, the mother of Catherine of The Great, had not died in exile but became a regent for grandson Paul I of Russia? There have been some speculations that Catherine the Great wasn't a good mother to her two children and only used them as a political investment and never had an emotional connection to them. If Joanna Elisbateh had returned from exile and made herself a regent for Paul or Alexi, possibly Paul? The question is, how would Joanna become the regent of her first-born grandson? Would she be the mother figure Paul wanted from Catherine, or she just be emotionally manipulative and exploit Paul's "behavior issues" to control him with her with real power or overthrow Paul and make herself the new monarch of Russia?

Also, have you ever heard of Rani Lakshimbal, aka Rani of Jhansi?
I would love to see a video about the Hohenzollerns too but it's because they're an inside joke with my friend from an EU4 game so I think it would be funny to see a video about them

Wha if everything went perfect for Mexico (since their independence in 1821), I think is a very good scenario because Mexico had too many troubles on the 19th century, so it could be quite interesting
Well their be no Hollywood I feel that be great. But would Mexico go for a gold rush in California? And use its oil resources when discovered?
Yeah honestly it is surprising how much went wrong in Mexicos history and it shows to this day
@@thekommunistkrusader3921 It went from being seen as an equal power to its northern neighbor by European observers to… well, now.
AKA. "What if countries had autosaves" series
Would love one about the UK, just feels like there’s a lot of possibilities where world history could change completely. :)
In this scenario, wouldn't it be better for the US to keep the Philippines just in-case they needed a forward base in Asia? Two of the largest nation, population-wise, are in Asia, so surely a huge territory there would be nice to contain the possible rise of competition.
In reality the US already has ports and bases in several countries in East Asia.
Not saying owning the Philippines would be bad or good, just realistically the US wouldn't need to own them to build up a substantial force in that area, as our reality being the proof.
my brother in crist... the us does keep the Philippines, the us navy, airforce, army, marines all have their own bases in Philippines.
And that two countries are the only countries that would probably beat USA in every field. Russia is gone case. EU is already a puppet. Japan not powerful enough same for Indonesia and Brazil
Are you reading my mind, this was exactly what I was thinking about yesterday
Can you consider the following scenario: "Alternate United and Peaceful Balkan nations in the 19th and 20th century"
For example:
-No Bulgaro-Serbian war in 1885
-The Second Balkan war doesn't happen, because there are slight border changes of the treaty(Serbia gets Adriatic coast, Bulgaria gets undisputed part of Macedonia promised in the Treaty, Greece gets Southern Albania, Albania gets parts of southwestern Kosovo) and thus the Balkan union is preserved
-In ww1 the five Balkan nations fight on the same side and vecause of that we get a different treaty, that means Trianon is not so harsh and Hungary keeps parts of Southern Slovakia and Northern Transylvania, Bulgaria gets the entire region of Macedonia and Eastern Thrace, Greece gets the part of Western Anatolia(which it didn't preserve in the OTL), Serbia makes Yugoslavia without Macedonia and parts of Kosovo(as discussed earlier) and Romania gets Banat, Southern Transylvania and Besserabia;
-In ww2 the only possible candidate for the Hungarians Might be Hungary, hungry for old land, but I digress, because they don't want a repeat of ww1, four against one, so the borders will probably remain the same after electric boogaloo;
-If Hungary didn't join the Axis, the only communist nations in the Cold war might be Hungary(75%) and Romania (99%, and they will be stripped out of Moldova), because the Soviets will bring Communism to the closest nationa to them, while Bulgaria, Greece and Yugoslavia join Nato(now that I think of it, Hungary might become the Yugoslavia of our timeline, the neutral state together with Austria, very funny😂)
-After the cold war we get the same picture, no bloody conflicts on the Balkans hopefully in the 21th century and everybody lives happily ever after, for now!

Very interesting - I totally agree with most of your assumptions. One thing that I would change in your rosy history is the time of acquisition of Cuba. During the lead-up to the Civil War, there were several groups who wanted to annex Cuba and make it another state. In the real timeline, one of the main reasons for rejecting that proposal was it would upset the balance between slave and free states... this was also why we didn't acquire more of Mexico during the 1840s. Since your timeline shows us expanding farther into Mexico and having all of Canada (presumably as free states), I think the chances that we would annex (or just buy) Cuba would be near certain.
Please do what if everything went good for the Netherlands! Dat zou erg leuk zijn!

this is just real history with a couple very minor changes
True, bascially how it is today but with small changes in the past like the war with Mexico, the outcome is the same today

Very cool video, however I'm disappointed you haven't considered US influence after WW1 possibly turning WW2 on it's head. The US supported the idea of deciding borders based on ethnic lines. This would make a possibly stronger Germany probably still falling to a political extreme over Alsace-Lorraine but most likely putting Hungary on the Allied side for WW2 and other stuff I'm too braindead to think of. This american WW1 peace ideal would be more easily achieved if the US was a colossal power like in the video. I get it though that these are super hypothetical and unnecessarily complicated concepts which is why they are not explored, but would've appreciated if you mentioned the wacky possibilities.

great video PH!
I think that realistically in this scenario, the US would either try to take parts of Siberia once they found rich resources in Alaska or make puppet nations out of the land at the first chance they got.
That means putin today one of his promises is to get Siberia back from the USA even if Russia never settled the Siberia area.
Russia was an American ally at the time, it’d also be a very expensive war with supply lines stretching thin. I doubt that they would try and backstab their ally for Siberian land that won’t make a profit until long after their terms end.
