Why am I imagining these to have been the 'original' scenarios and the USA just reloaded previous saves to get to its modern hegemonic status? Like in a paradox game

[JustAnotherGuy-vxpo]

Scenario idea: What if Burgundy won the Burgundian wars and eventually became independent of France and had colonies?

[Maltheus_]

A few suggestions:
- What If Everything Went PERFECT for the Aztecs?
- What If Everything Went PERFECT for Mexico?
- What If Sweden Won the Great Northern War?
- What If the Byzantine Empire Never Fell?
- What If Italy United During the Middle Ages?

It goes to show just how many points there were where the US could have completely failed during its early history. Kinda makes me thankful our founders were as competent (or lucky) as they were.

Another scenario that would fit in this video is if latin America wasn't as remarkably disfuncional as it was in our world.
If countries like Brazil and especially Mexico weren't as inept across their history the United States would have had a far harder time consolidating north America and especially achieving world dominance.
You don't even need to substantially nerf the US to avoid today's world in that situation.
One could even argue that countries like Mexico could become continental hegemons and be very powerful on the world stage.

The world and people's way of thinking could be substantially different, especially in Europe.

I would say, "What if everything went terrible for Brazil" but i think we are already living this scenario

The American revolution wasn’t just about taxes, the UK wouldn’t let the colonies participate in parliament which made the colonies feel left out. In an alternate timeline the UK lets the colonies participate in parliament therefore the revolution wouldn’t happen

[Wendeta-hqcp]

This was cool! I would love to see a 'What if everything went Terrible for France', mainly because France has had such a tumultuous history and was also surrounded by enemies on all sides (Habsburgs and England).

Scenario: What if Russia was formed by Novgorod not Moscow?

[pelinalwhitestrake]

"Bukharin leads the USSR and loses WW2"
Where have I seen that?

[Pigraider]

Would you be interested in making something like "What if everything went perfect for Native Americans?" :)

[Marylandbrony]

Minor error in the Articles of Confederation section: Vermont was already an independent country during that period and should be shown as it's own country and not a part of New York.

[keshvinkumar]

What if the Imperial Japanese Navy gain more political influence than the Army over Japan before WW2?

[seagie]

>us loses war of independence
>Britain retains American naval industrial and food power
>Industrial revolution happens early
>no liberalization

You know this is pretty close to the backstory to Code:Geass, right?

[mister_dadstersays_hi]

Bro thought that he could put half of the TNO plot in one of those scenarios and we wouldn't notice.

[rewriting-history]

Great implementation of a great idea! Keep it up!

[Danail]

Only legends remember when the title said "what if everything went wrong for Bulgaria"

[lljkgktudjlrsmygilug]

PH should have made a scenario where Yellowstone erupted at full force, probably sometime after the Mexican-American war. The closer to the present scenario would likely be more devastating for the Americans. It would be one hell of a way to lose the Cold War.

[kooldogkid]

You should do “What if everything went TERRIBLY for the British”

[RadioactiveE]

I absolutely love your channel and style of maps, please keep up the great work. Have you ever considered doing a pure historical series where you narrate historical events and timelines, would be cool to have as either a subseries or a separate channel.
