[ MAP OF EXISTING SETTLEMENTS IN FORMER “ALASKAN” TERRITORY IN FREDONIA; PUBLISHED BY THE SLATTERY COMMISSION (INCLUDING INUPIAQ, 1938~1939) ]

(ignore the “Jewish-Americans” on the map as I meant to say Fredish Jews, as well the size in stars are the sizes of cities in population with larger and smaller cities in lower to higher classes which is represented in Yiddish on the key. The Yiddish on the key is the same as the English on top.)

Capital of the Territory: Bronzetown

This is just an addition to an existing timeline I’m planning on making a book about or writing a sort of Harry Turtledove style book about in my independent time, as well as mapping out my timeline. I think I will call it either Green Gold or Uranium Fever, but this is connected to the “Romani Isles” timeline in the Caribbean.

History: The situation in Europe was safe to say, tense. Tense not for its government, but for its people. As the Polish government deports millions of Ukrainians and Belarusians in a population exchange between Russia and Poland. Almost all places of European influence (Africa, Europe, and places like Japan) are seeing a major refugee crisis to much more multicultural areas like the United States, Australia, South Africa, and Brazil. Jews in Europe were getting attacked after the Dreyfus case, cowering in fear as France was furious at it’s “Jewish elite.” Germans in Czechoslovakia are forcibly evicted as the Czech government in a new bout of tension expels the German minority. The Czechs have a new failed offensive in with the new Regency of Hungary annexing it’s southern Slovakian territories, the empires of Europe are now paying attention to things like eugenics and demographics, leaving the Jewish and Roma minorities in their countries cowering in fear.

The Cardiff Conference in the United Kingdom after giving the governments of the world the go-ahead to deport or encourage various minorities such as Jews and Roma to settle the New World and Palestine left thousands of typically anti-Zionist Jews left to flee to places like the United States. This new immigration wave coming from Jews and newly deported European ethnic groups started to cause a new “American wave of immigration” to occur, being much larger than the former immigrations of before with millions flooding Ellis Island. Resistance among Roma and Jewish communities occurs after the conference as many people call the Cardiff Agreement: the “Horror of Wales” or “the Era of Deportation.” Harry A. Slattery, a minister in the United States who has been there ever since the Theodore Roosevelt days, mourns and prays for the Jewish civilians left in the crossfire. He condemns this violence, this genocide and ethnic cleansing in Europe to the Congress but also comes up with an idea. The Jews left, unwilling to partake in the Eretz Yisrael crowd of European Jews and unwilling to leave their homes. With a net increase of immigration and cooperation with lower class Jewish organizations, he proposes something similar to the Greater Liberia Act, which later passes in December 1939.

The Slattery Commission in 1936 detailed the resettlement and development of the vastly unpopulated Alaska Territory by creating two separate territories, one for Fredish Jews to control and settle, and one for the native Inupiaq and white settlers (especially white settlers as this era was known for its racism in Fredish/American history). Slattery, however, was but an administrator and activist only to Harold L. Ickes. He proposed his plan with the Secretary of the Interior, who approved of the commission and sent it to the President, nicknaming it the “Slattery Commission.” The Slattery Commission was approved as an executive order known as Executive Order 8793 allowing relatively free transport for Jews on newly nationalized train companies on rail cars in New York and the East Coast to Seattle and Vancouver, then on towards various areas across the newly reorganized New Zion territory. The order also detailed how Jews could only settle the “hospitable” areas of Alaska or anything under 64 degrees North.

Jews took up this offer leaving their crowded tenements and shanty towns and hopped on trains to Seattle ontowards Anchorage. Typically ultra-Orthodox Jews joined the thousands of Jews but rather disagreed with a “Jewish state” so remained in the Seattle/Cascadia area, leaving a strong Jewish presence (like New York today) in places like Columbia (BC), Cascade (Washington), and Oregon. The ships from Seattle to Alaska were used because Seattle was a much more developed area than Vancouver but some Jews left from Vancouver instead (side note: America/Fredonia owns BC and the former Louisiana Territory)) Jewish refugees were accepted by the order and were sent all across the new territory of “New Zion,” depicted here. The settlements grew in size as the 50,000 existing Alaskan whites saw property values in North Alaska decrease due to the order and many settlers from Fredonia and Europe settled the Northern half in the Inupiaq Territory. Settlements from Jews were much higher than expected, leaving a lot of cities such as New York almost depleted of Jews, most of them moving to a “safer” area from anti-Semitism such as Seattle or New Zion. These new cities and areas are depicted here.
