  12. Soult and Murat at Waterloo

    A different Napoleon wins Waterloo WI. OTL Soult was Napoleon's best Marshal, after (perhaps) Massena, often doing more to win battles than Napoleon did.

  17. US-Danish War of 1855

    The sound controlling access to the Baltic sea is held as a right by the King of Denmark, right to the Swedish shore.
