Indeed he is, him and Glen H. Taylor. Nothing like Cooperative Liberal representatives who believe in Social Gospel. He’s a fun person.Jerry Voorhis is one sexy Congresscritter and ought to be utilized more often.
Thanks, wanted to do something with Long and Lindbergh that doesn’t end in a horrible dystopia.All in all it's a nice, well-described list.
La Historia Nos AbsolveráI've noticed an awful lot of these lists (I am somewhat guilty of this as well) feature OTL stable countries having crisis points and revolutions (in an electoral or literal sense). What if someone tried the opposite, e.g. the Third or Fourth French Republics continuing to the present day, Italy still being Japan-like with the Christian Democrats dominant to now, etc.?

Somehow I just now stumbled upon this thread and have been trying to tear through it while I’m on a cross-country road trip, you folks have some beautiful minds@Tyche I'm glad you like my old lists.
This is a lovely detail--I wonder how King's Lynn fared?Montreal (later renamed Mont Républicain, then Mont Imperial)
Thanks. It was fun to make.A fun and interesting list.
Better than Parisderry, that's for sure.This is a lovely detail--I wonder how King's Lynn fared?

@Thande's post combined with @Tsar of New Zealand's wonderful reply has given me an idea for what I call List Challenges. These would operate similarly to the Vignette Challenges: someone would come up with a topic (for example "Britain after Sea Lion") and people create lists and descriptions about that topic. Like the Vignette Challenge at the end of the month there would be a vote on the best one, and then the cycle repeats every month..La Historia Nos Absolverá
There was an attempt at something like this a while back in the form of a prompt rather than a formal contest. It led to some really good lists, but kinda fizzled out.@Thande's post combined with @Tsar of New Zealand's wonderful reply has given me an idea for what I call List Challenges. These would operate similarly to the Vignette Challenges: someone would come up with a topic (for example "Britain after Sea Lion") and people create lists and descriptions about that topic.

What do you guys think?
