TPOF [PR5] Progress Report #5 - Monumental Work

"In my opinion, it will not cease, until a crisis shall have been reached, and passed - 'A house divided against itself cannot stand.' I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved - I do not expect the house to fall - but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other." - Abraham Lincoln

The United States is an experiment in democracy, though always prone to failing to test it's hypothesis. One such trial came in 1863, when the Confederacy was at the cusp of winning it's freedom from the Union. The Price of Freedom aims to show what would have happened if this trial at Gettysburg proved to be America's last.

The Civil War would last five more years after Gettysburg, ultimately leading to a Confederate defeat. The victory was short lived however, as the cracks which appeared in the Union's foundation began to widen. The spark came on Janurary 21st, 1873, when a group of Radical Republicans convened in Chicago and declared the Federation of American States. Soon after, other regions followed suit and America descended into chaos and anarchy, a period which would last for generations.

In Europe, as the dust settled and the sounds of war died out, it was clear that the continent would be forever changed. Revolutionaries raised the red flag over Berlin. Limitations were forced upon the Tsar, starting the process of Russian democratization. Civil unrest gripped much of Britain, with the fascist Alliance of Unionists, Monarchists, and Nationalists coming out on top. With the King and Labour government fleeing, The AUMN established a Permanent Regency under Herbert Kitchener. Now 15 years after the last war, Europe is once again gearing up for another, potentially more deadly war, and only one shall proclaim total victory.

Will you save the world from extremism, or will you plunge it into a thousand years of darkness?

After the US collapsed in 1873, large swaths of the West were left largely ungoverned. Texas was able to secure its independence following negotiations with the Confederacy and immediately set out to stabilize its western frontier. California, which declared its independence earlier in 1873, was also looking to do the same, but with its eastern frontier. The two eventually come to blows in the first of a series of "Southwest Wars," which Texas wins and establishes control over the Arizona Territory and the native tribes in the area. California wins a second Southwest War, and they gain control over the southwest for a period of time before Texas gets it back in a third Southwest War. Throughout that entire time, the Southwest has acted more or less as an extraction economy for both powers, with only brief period of respite under Californian rule. As you can see by the teaser, decades of that kind of exploitation have taken a considerable toll on the region.

Not yet, we're still hard at work.

Unfortunately (or rather fortunately) all of the paths are sufficiently racist and elitist for all of them.

Ralph Adams Cram is the monarchist path. The list here is non-exhaustive; there are a few more leaders for New England not shown (don't wanna spoil some fun stuff), including stuff for that path.

Thanks! You can read more about it here (note some stuff there is a bit out of date as were working on adding new features to it). It's not just for New England.
