Interesting. What's the Cosmopolitan-Populare split all about? City/townie vs rural?
I don't wanna talk about itI like this map, how'd you make it?
So yeah, much like the OTL Federalist-Republican split, the Populares are pretty rural and pro-increased Democracy while the Cosmopolitans are pro-business and pro-big government in vague terms. The Cosmopolitans were the force that pushed for the monarchy, while the Populares were pretty uniformly opposed. They took their name from Jefferson's idolatry of the Roman Empire and have been on the decline since Jefferson left the party in the early 1800s and staged a short-lived insurrection with his new Localist party in DC following the Inauguration of President BurrInteresting.

Yes. Lafayette is an Independent but was endorsed by the Cosmopolitans in 1816 and 1820, although, there were "straight" Cosmopolitan tickets in both years as minor parties, mostly those who were fully opposed to Madison's War and especially after Lafayette finished the war after being elected for his first termimmediately based

Huey Long said a lot of contradictory things, I suspect that he would say whatever he needed to for a national platform.Very interesting. As always I'm asking from a place of ignorance when it comes to those states over yonder; but I was under the impression that Long was fairly anti-socialist, up to outright saying that his whole Share The Wealth schtick was more about preventing socialism than implementing it. How does that mesh with Farmer-Labor? Is Farmer-Labor that centre-leaning that it accepts that?
