Alternate History: CSA Victory in the Civil War - Alternate American Civil War and World War One

What if Robert E. Lee won the battle of Gettysburg and gained European support for the Confederacy? How would History be changed?

Yes, the quality is screwed up. WMM wouldn't convert the video, so I had to use Camstudio. Camstudio's waveout tool would not work so I had to record Audio from the Mic, I tried to be as quiet as possible. I might audio swap if I find a good song.

Kind of reminds me of Turtledove, but a distinctly different take on it. interesting. by the way, I'm currently working on a new AH video, its about 3/4 the way done. I've been very busy lately and haven't been able to make many videos.

@Maetel22 Nice, ive been waiting for one.

I think Prussia (later Germany) would side with the CSA instead of Britian and France, which may have made them join the central powers and stop the USA from joining causing a different outcome.

[SonicobbsessedR2]

@Rebs96 Germany sides with the US because in real-life France and Britain actually politically supported the CSA in the civil war, but never took military action. Also, the North and Germany have closer cultural ties just as the CSA does with Britain and France.

But all in all a very good ALT History vid!

@TheShadowwolf88 (cont)

And with the added mexican manpower the US(if they joins the central powers) WILL lose!

In Europe however without any(US OR CS) aid the germans will not only defeat the entente but probably crush it completely it was afterall american manpower difference together with allied initiative and a lack of german will to adapt to newer weapons that won the war for the Entente powers!

So you´d have a loose - win scenario for both sides wich might become very interresting later!

[TheShadowwolf88]

And if UK and France sides and helps the CSA then Mexico would most likely NOT have been a republic! France invaded before the civil war and put a puppet emperor on the Throne of Mexico and with a friendly if not allied CSA rather than a non hostile but deeply meddling USA to the north the french would have had more or less free rains and by the great war Mexico would have been an ally rather than an enemy!

And as djmarkway wrote slavery would have ended in 20 years at the longest!
