So far, so good! The story so far is not too shabby. Maybe elaborate more on daily life or slice of life elements, but also add little more worldbuilding and background. Overall I genuinely like it. Keep going and continue the work, you’re doing great!👍👍😀😀😄

What red commendations do you have for slice of life additions. I’m always open to improvements

“The Rebellion Burns Bright” by Okmangeez. Very similar premise to your novel, In my opinion does very well in showcasing albeit a bit too idealistic. “Tyranny of Steel” by Zentmeister, Great in Worldbuilding, Lore, and Realistic knowledge of various things. Although it was great read, I have some criticism towards that novel. Any books by SorryImJustDiamond, Great at characterization and showing various aspects of Knowledge from Modern day. At times a bit unrealistic. There is some web fictions I want to mention like any books by rub37 and Sarthak in alternatehistory, though you may need an account to access. For now that is all the recommendations.

Thanks for the recommendations. I don't plan on the MC being some guy who can change the entire culture of the USA overnight without much effort or push back. The plan is for a methodical build up of economic strength to make social change through monetary incentives. I love tyranny of steel, but I feel like it progressed to rapidly sometimes so progression through the tech tree will be paced down a bit.

That is one of my criticisms, other the unnecessary genocides of other ethnic groups.

FORTUNE FAVOUR THE BOLD

The principal character in the book, "Fortune favors the bold", is a polygamous, heartless African man, although socially respected and perceived as cursed as a result of an unexpected bad turn on events. The protagonist, Asweda, faces severe physical injuries while looking for a mid-wife to assist his wife to deliver. He becomes an embarrassment to society when his wife gives birth to a male child who turns out to be a product of infidelity. He struggles to cover up the shame and, in the process, breaks the laid down society norms, an act which angered the ancestors, marking the onset and manifestation of a curse in his life. His family is very affected by drought, hunger and famine. He struggles to sire a male child. Asweda, being a romantic man, marries up to four wives, one of whom comes out to be a night runner and a magician. On a migration mission, Asweda losses all his wealth to thieves, his gardener is killed, and his child becomes critically sick. He heartlessly butchered one of the thieves on a defense mission. Asweda makes a hard decision to bury his gardener in a strange foreign bush land and later haunts him and demands to be buried in ancestral land. Asweda ignores the cleansing ceremony which comes along with serious consequences. The now poor African man plots rustling exercise in an attempt to gain wealth, killing an 'Oromo' man, in the process running away with a large, s number of cattle. The Oromo men attacked him on a revenge mission, chopping off his leg and throwing him in a cave where he spent quite some time eating rats for survival. The African polygamous man later reunites with the family only to find all his wives already inherited. He struggled to own back his wives. Asweda sires a son at his old age. Twelve years later, he blesses his son Obulala and then dies partially satisfied. His brother Ocholi also dies mysteriously. Betrayal, cunningness wealth and poverty manifest in Asweda's lineage.
