  • cAHNES: 1811 once more

    The old cAHNES: 1811 can be found here.

    This NES takes place mainly in Europe and the Americas, though a little bit of Africa and Asia are included.

    From 1804-1806, Aaron Burr plotted a revolution in the Western territories/states of the US. When Britain was not interested, his chief co-conspirator betrayed him to President Jefferson, but what if the revolt had succeeded?

    A world war resulted. On one side were Revolutionary France, led by Napoleon, Spain, Russia, and the US. On the other side were Britain, most of the German and Italian states, Austria, the new nation of Louisiana led by Burr, and after it rebelled from Spain in 1809, Mexico. Sweden and the Ottoman Empire were the only significant nations to remain neutral.

    Now, it is 1811. An uneasy peace has been reached. France, Russia, and Spain have divided up most of Europe, and Britain is reeling from the trade losses. However, England won a crushing naval victory against the Spanish at Trafalgar. The resulting invasion of Spain won the British the restoration of Gibraltar and the area surrounding it, and won independence for Portugal. Napoleon is getting restless, for he cannot successfully invade Britain and only his allies/neutrals remain in continental Europe.

    In the Americas, the British-Louisiana-Mexico alliance won a decisive victory. The British have expanded the borders of Canada (but were forced back by the RUssians in Alaska), and when Mexico rebelled the independence of Louisiana was secured. The rebellion of Mexico has caused a few underground movements to form in Central and SOuth AMerica, but no revolution has been launched there yet.

    In the US, the political system is now near collapse. Jefferson was highly unpopular for his failure to stop BUrr's rebellion, but so were the Federalists for urging the nation to be friendly to Britain, who betrayed them in favor of Louisiana. As a result, George Clinton has been elected president.

    A few notes: All of the following areas, excepting major cities, are dominated by Native americans and the country that "controls them" actually has very little control over them: South America, All lands West of the Southern Rockies except for those controlled by Mexico, all lands in Louisiana West of the Mississippi, Canada (BRitish land) West of the Great Lakes, and Alaska (Russian lands) except for the coast. The big green blob in Africa is out of bounds. Colonies in Africa are small and relatively undeveloped, and shall remain that way. Technology is Late Middle ages/early industrial, and will not advance very much. Portugal is the weakest nation, but its independence must be respected because of the treaty between Britain and Spain.

    Also note that standards for army and navy sizes are much smaller in theis time period

                        Mexico begins financing the rebels in Central America. The navy is to be upgraded and used to secure the sea around Central America.

                            To France:

                            I would like to help build up the relationship between our two nations, as I can clearly see the value of having a trustworthy and friendly allie such as yourself. Diplomats have been sent your way to negotiate any trading possibilities between our nations.
