Arela

███

Morocco, Tunisia, Northern Algeria & Libya, & Southern Italy

A Roman Empire that somehow survived to the modern day, became Greek-speaking, and repelled the Arab conquests of North Africa. This does not have any ripple effects whatsoever on world history.

Baratheone

███

Russia, the Caucuses, & Central Asia

The Soviet Union emerged from World War II as the world's lone superpower. Postwar highs and ambitions brought a golden age that people now yearn to return to.

Texas

Influenced/Other Claim:

• Cuba

• Northeastern Mexico

Texas followed a path of agrarianism throughout the 19th century.

Influenced/Other Claim:

• Cuba was liberated from Spanish hands in the 1890s by the SSA, and would undergo many of the same syndicalizing reforms during the 1920s, although under a different form of government, with Fidel Castro taking control of the country and transitioning to a more communist government in the 1950s, though it chose to remain a part of the CSS.

• The Rio Grande began its revolution against the Mexican Central Government in the 1950s, with assistance from Cuba, Texas, and the SSA, eventually becoming a fully independent, syndicalist nation in 1962, joining the CSS upon its independence.
