If the Egyptians still intervene against the Greeks, that could be just what Napoleon needs to justify another invasion of Egypt to the other great powers.
I really doubt Napoleon will leave Haiti alone or treat them any better than OTL France did. Both personal and national pride will drive him to avenge past defeats and maintain a colonial empire, and Napoleon is nothing if not prideful.
Toussaint is long dead, he died in a French prison well before the POD. Napoleon probably would have been well served by accepting Louverture's constitution for Saint-Domingue and allying with him, but alas that ship has long since sailed. Haiti is currently divided between Henri Christophe's...
I certainly don't envy Haiti now that France is at peace in Europe... Hopefully whoever leads the inevitable invasion to reconquer Saint-Domingue doesn't reach the same genocidal conclusions as Leclerc and Rochambeau. Unfortunately, I can't see France being anything but cruel towards the...
I sincerely doubt any of the royal houses of Europe would be interested in marrying a divorcée in her mid 30s. The real prize among the Bonaparte women is likely to be Joseph's daughter Zénaïde as she will be the heiress to the Kingdom of Naples. Although I'm sure that Napoleon and Joseph will...
The problem with her is that she's Lucien's child and as far as we know, Napoleon and Lucien still haven't reconciled. Depending on the butterflies, Lucien and his family are either still holed up in Italy, in self-imposed exile in the US (as Lucien intended), or in comfortable captivity in...
Like others have mentioned, rushed independence is very possible but I think it's also possible that Congo and Ruanda-Urundi could also end up as UN Trust Territories for a limited time. Perhaps with France as the trustee for the Congo and the UK as the Trustee for Ruanda-Urundi. Considering...
It's probably not enough on its own, but I think you would have to avoid the civil war between Cortes and Alvarado that took place immediately after the initial conquest of Mexico . The war disrupted Spanish momentum in the Americas for decades as the conflict devastated conquistador manpower...
Canada is a Dominion of the British Empire with its own independent monarchy, which just happens to be in personal union with the British monarchy. While Haiti has a similar arrangement with France in the form of the protectorate (which is only economic in nature), it is otherwise independent...
I think if you want the majority of the Americas to be republics, the most important POD would have to be the Peruvian revolution of 1780-1783. If the Spanish captured or killed Tupac Amaru II early in his rebellion (before he made contact with the British) then the Peruvian Empire wouldn't be...
To me this looks like a TL with no Aurelian. The Franks must have conquered or otherwise subverted the Gallic Empire and then used it as a power base for expansion into Italy. These Franks are clearly Christian somehow because there is no other possible way that the Pope controls Rome - the...
King Bardylis was as old as 90 by the time of the battle of the Erigon Valley and he died only a few months after his victory. If he had died only a year earlier, Philip II may have been able to come out on top of the Dardanians if they were led by the less experienced Cleitus instead of...
Shakespeare writing a play about vampires wouldn't affect how we see vampires today, it would define how we see vampires today, at least in the Anglosphere. Although revenants were a theme across European folklore in OTL, the term vampire was mostly confined to the Balkans until the 1700s, so...
I read this timeline during its hiatus and am happy to see it back. Such a well-researched and well-written pre-Columbian TL is truly a pleasure to read.
As for the rebellions, I suspect that Ah Ek Lemba will continue on to Cholōllān regardless. Standing down now would give the greatest threat...
Rather than increasing migration from non-Christian areas, you could also decrease migration from Christian areas - namely Catholic ones. If the USA retains an anti-Catholic stance for longer, we could see waves of Catholic migrants instead heading for Latin America and Canada, strengthening...
