World in Revolution: 1861

So Boerd said
British army isn't having any of it, and neither is Parliament. Most senior officers are nobles, and the fact that Edward didn't consolidate but simply declared the Kingdom at an end. So instead, Parliament shall treat Edward's shocking pronouncement as an abdication and young Alfred shall be king. As he is too young, a regent will be appointed, probably a staunch conservative to restore order.

This doesn't mean there won't be dissent by possibly Republican forces (read: either Marxist, Liberal, etc.) that will interpret Edward's statement as an opportunity to validate their ends.

I am seriously wondering: if a communist revolution were to happen in Britain and given the Paris commune, wouldn't communism gain a lot more traction in the earlier years (at least in Europe) even before the Bolsheviks started in Russia?

Well, European intervention in America is now hard to legitimize. So yeah, the Union may rip through the South now.

I might have to rescind my declaration of war with the USA as well.

So, no Greek colony in Rhode(s) Island?

It makes things more interesting but where France leaves the war now the Russian bear is primed to take their place.

Russia was first in the Union's side. A treaty of mutual defense doesn't involve them acting in any offensive wars the UK might start, however, they have bought Russia's neutrality.

In my opinion, at least.

For the first time, by escaping from combat, France has saved the world.

I don't know if we're forcing the brakes on the First World War or if this is just a slow descent into a spiral of violence, disguised as a pleasant ride in a parachute.

I know Narco but Im sure parliment will have to calm down their unstable ruler, I'd like to get a conference of all Latin American and South American nations but there is only 3 of us:/

But there is not discontent among us at the time. :/
What would a conference bring to the table?

We've accelerated the dependence on Chinese exports and the first World War. Great.

Also, did Abraham Lincoln just steal the South's whole Second American Revolution thing...? Did that really just happen...?

Well, they ARE fighting against the Brits now.
