1791:

February 3rd: The 6th United States Congress is officially sworn in. Ten seats in the Senate (Hisigi, Kentucky, Maine, Vermont, and Georgia) and all House seats were up for re-election. Voters' turnout across the nation hovered just above 60%. The election sees the rise of "The Front" (Frontier Party), which stands for greater government assistance in infrastructure to help integrate the western states to the east, expansion towards the west, granting land to citizens for settlement out west, and a lower excise tax to benefit the farmers in the western/rural areas. The new Frontier Party gained four seats in the Senate (two in Kentucky, one in Hisigi, and one in Georgia). The Democrats held one seat in Georgia (while losing the other one to the Frontier Party) and Hisigi (one seat was also lost to the Frontier Party). The Republicans lost two seats in Kentucky, but kept its hold on Vermont. Maine is still held staunchly by the Unionists. The Whig Party fails to gain any seats in the Senate once again, remaining a party for specific regions. The Democrat-Republican alliance holds a narrow 21-19 majority in the Senate.

Republican Party: 13

Democratic Party: 8

Frontier Party: 4

Union Party: 15

40 seats in total

In the House, the opposition gains a majority. After the addition of five additional states during the Kim Presidency, the size of the House is 159 seats (with Bermuda, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Florida having one seat each due to their territory status, or in Bermuda's case, federal district status). The Frontier Party, boosted by the western states, gain all three House seats in Kentucky, two in Hisigi (the third seat going to the Democratic Party), two seats in Georgia (the third seat going to the Democratic Party as well), two seats in Iroquois (the other seat going to the Democratic Party). a seat in Pennsylvania (the rest being split between the Democratic Party, Republican Party, and the Union Party) and odd seats in southern states. Vermont is split between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party (two seat to the former, three seats to the latter). Maine is firmly Unionist with four seats going to said party, while the fifth seat is held by the Republican Party. The elections are fierce across the nation, though the process itself is peaceful (despite outcries and protests from a number of interest groups such as slave owners). The Congressional elections show the public's reaction to the controversial cases under Jefferson's presidency, though the Republican-Democrat alliance still holds a solid number of seats in the House due to the growing economy and the (relatively) stable situation of the nation. The House is split 80-73, with the Frontier Party taking away seats from the Republicans and Democrats (6 seats are independent). The Unionists hold the biggest share of the House seats, with many northern states (including Maryland and Virginia) seeing the benefits of industrialization, government research, and a large, functioning government. The new speaker of the House is former presidential candidate John Jay of New York (Union Party).

The Political Parties of the United States:

Republican Party: The "moderate" party that balances the issue of a large federal government and the autonomy of states. The party supports the precedent laid down by President Kim, but believes that the autonomy of states is a crucial safeguard against tyranny. As a result, it supports governmental programs and agencies (such as education and research). However, it supports the notion that the states should also have a say in those programs when they are in the boundaries of the states. For example, it believes that the Virginian government should have a say in how the Federal University of Virginia operates, such as courses, requirements, land issues, etc. The Republican Party champions itself as the defender of the dual nature of the United States (federal and state governments). It supports industrialization and expansion of agriculture, with no heavy favoritism to either sides. It also advocates strongly for equal rights, though is cautious on how much land/funding it gives to freedmen. As a result, the party finds support in both cities and rural areas, though it doesn't dominate either areas. However, due to its alliance with the Democrats, the party has shifted more towards favoring agriculture and the tech to support it (which has seen some fruits, such as the threshing machine, the steel plows, the cotton gin, and various canals/roads). The Republicans are pro-immigration, like the Democrats, and seek to find support among immigrants that are naturalizing for additional support in the political field. Jefferson is actually an outlier in his party as he is considered a "Radical Republican," due to his views on equality (which he favors more strongly) and societal issues (as seen in the New York case).

Democratic Party: The party for rural Americans. It strongly believes in an emphasis on agriculture and leans conservative (though still progressive by this time's standards). The party believes that autonomy is also important for the continuity of the United States, due to the relative size and differences between each state. It supports the expansion of infrastructure (particularly canals) in the eastern regions of the United States, putting the party at odds with the opposition parties. It has allied itself with the Republicans due to somewhat similar beliefs and due to the threat of the Unionists (which is pro-industry). Like the Republican Party, it supports equal rights and has found support in freedmen due to the party's support for land for former slaves (which was done intentionally to gain supporters in the recently integrated black majority states). The Democrats are staunchly anti-slavery, which is why the Whig Party exists. Despite their relatively pro-state government policies, they support helping slaves fleeing from the Caribbean and even capturing slave ships in the Atlantic to free them on US soil. As a result, they support a strong Navy, but believe in a small, but professional, Army and Marines. The party supports a lower excise tax as well, though not as low as the Frontier Party is proposing.

Frontier Party: The new and fresh face of the American political field. It differentiates itself from the Democrats and Whigs by claiming to be for citizens in the West that is "neglected" by the federal government. Like the Unionists, they believe that the government should grow bigger, though they should place a focus on the western states to ease the lives of settlers in the area. Improvement of infrastructure out west (especially canals such as the Erie Canal), land development, laws granting favorable amounts of lands to settlers, a very low excise tax, granting African Americans land out west (especially after thousands were exiled to "Jefferson"), and the support of more immigrants (to settle the western territories) are the core policies of the new party. Their policies are picking up interest in even non-western states and they have found near universal support out west. With more and more territories in the west being settled, the Frontier Party is looking like the next "big party" to challenge the established parties in the government. While they align closely with the Democratic Party, they have allied themselves with the Union Party due to its belief in a more unified United States and the integration of the western states to the eastern states. This is chiefly due to the fact that many of the party leaders believe that the federal government is crucial to the success of the western states in the future.

Union Party: The pro-federal government party, which strives for an expansion of the federal government and to provide greater aid and relief to the populace. Calling themselves the true successors to President Kim, the party has found popularity in many states (especially in northern ones). The expansion of industry to southern states has awakened the Union Party in several southern states as well. Standing for a more united United States, the party is more reluctant to accept immigrants and want immigration to be more controlled (to ensure the nation's stability and unity) (they especially prefer to encourage immigration of skilled artisans and educated minds to the United States). They are heavily pro-industry, owing to the recent industrial boom experienced under the Kim Presidency and believes that the nation must race ahead of the other European states to gain an early lead in industry. They are strong supporters of equal rights, an "American" identity, greater protections for the American industrial sectors, integration of western states (though not on the radical levels of the Frontier Party), and the development of new technologies to promote faster travel, communications, and industry. They also support an additional expansion of education institutions across the United States and a powerful military to prevent rebellions (much like the ones that have been occurring recently). Their position on abolition is non-wavering, but they believe that African Americans should be provided jobs in industry (to grow industry in the south) instead of being given land for compensation.

Whig Party: After the failure of Archibold Bullock in the 1788 Presidential Elections and the near extinction of the party due to its bumbles during the 1788 Congressional Elections, the party changed its tone and became a party similar to the values of the Union Party. However, they are willing to give more leeway to slave owners (in particular, greater compensation for them and an extension to the life of slavery until the owners are compensated) and favor rural policies over industrial ones. The party split off from the Democratic Party and joined with the Union Party coalition due to its conflict with the Democratic Party. The Union Party doesn't particularly like them too much (especially the whole deal on slavery), but sees the Whig Party as a useful way to siphon off some votes from the Republican-Democrat coalition.

The official 1790 census reveals that the population of the United States (including territories) sits at 4,543,399 (a large increase from the previous total of 2,836,800 in 1780). This is attributed to an increase in immigration, the gradual end of slavery (allowing African Americans to have a population boom), the peaceful growth of Native Americans within the United States (which has also seen a population boom), and a rapidly growing economy. The 1800 census will determine the appropriation of House districts and the number of seats in the House of Representatives.

February 10th: The United States enter formal diplomatic relations with Portugal, with the approval and support of Great Britain.

February 15th: The French town of Macon is captured by Republican forces, opening up the path to the city of Lyon. The Monarchists are supported by Austrians and Prussians, with British support in forms of non-military aid. While direct conflict has not yet occurred between the Republicans and Austria/Prussia, relations between the two factions are tense and war seems imminent.

March 20th: Thomas Paine publishes the Rights of Man, which is directly influenced by the American Revolution and the French Civil War. He argues that a popular revolution is not only permissible, but inevitable if the government fails to safeguard the rights, liberties, and livelihood of the people. Taking into account the success of the American Republic, he urges for reforms within the British government, earning mixed reactions within Britain itself.

April 1st: In order to create a uniform system of measurement, Congress approves of the "Measurement And Weights Act" of 1791. The Act establishes the metric system as the official system of measurement in the United States.

April 5th: President Jefferson visits the site of the new capital, which is nearing completion after a decade of construction. Columbia is set to be finished by 1792, with Jefferson on course for being the first president to take office in the White House.

April 15th: After some deliberation, Congress approves the creation of a National Numismatic Collection, to be displayed in the future American National Museums of History and Culture. Several other objects of importance are also considered to be added to the Museums, such as Benedict Arnold's uniform and sword, various letters written during the Revolutionary War, and a rifled cannon from the first USS Enterprise.

April 29th: The Sejm of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth establishes a new constitution (often called the Constitution of 1791). It is considered one of the first modern codified constitution in Europe. It draws some influence from the French Republicans, though it is very different compared to the French Republic's Constitution that was declared in 1790.

May 30th: The Republicans manage to seize Lyons after a fierce battle, leaving the Monarchists in an alarmed and panicked state. The rapid advance of the Republicans have created a stir among European monarchies and the potential threat of a liberal, republican state in Europe leads to many major European powers to send more aid to the Monarchists. However, the Republicans enjoy a wide amount of support in both metro and rural France, due to the charismatic leadership of Lafayette. Lafayette, a skilled politician, manages to keep the French National Assembly united in its efforts against the Monarchists despite external threats. Privately, he also exiles/imprisons several controversial leaders that advocate for mass executions of nobles and radical policies that could subvert the republic.

June 11th: Colonel Nathaniel Napoleon Bonapart lands in South Africa with five hundred American soldiers, planting the US flag on what would eventually become the South African protectorate. The site he plants the flag in will become Fort Hope in the future.

July 14th-July 17th: The Priestley Riots rock Birmingham, leading to the destruction of property of many pro-civil rights Dissenters. The Dissenters, who took inspiration from the French Republicans, are attacked by rioters for their radical political views. This will lead to many liberals fleeing the area and moving elsewhere, which will make Birmingham a conservative city for the next several decades.

July 20th: With the rising threat of a potential Republican France, Austria signs the Treaty of Sistova, ending its war with the Ottoman Empire. The war ends in a stalemate with Austria suffering financially (both from the war with the Ottomans and its support of the Monarchists in France).

August 1st: The slave rebellion in Haiti comes to an end, leading to an uneasy peace between the freedmen in the south and the slave owners in the north. For the time being, the colony is split into two zones (south being a "free" district while the north being a "slave" district). This allows the colony to start rebuilding, but with lack of funding from European France, the colony suffers due to the destruction caused by the rebellion. Many freedmen (and escaped slaves) immigrate to the United States, which offers them a chance for a better life and citizenship. These immigrants will significantly bolster the number of blacks in the southern states (in particular, Florida and the future state of Jefferson).

August 2nd: The first steamboat enters service in Lake Erie, creating a stir in the United States about the potential of steam engines.

August 9th: The first Asian immigrants (outside of Kim's direct transport of Asian immigrants in 1790) arrive in the United States. Many of them will settle in the town of Xin (meaning "new" in Chinese) just north of New York City and await for land grants and jobs. Around 2,500 Chinese immigrants, 1,000 Vietnamese immigrants, and 500 Koreans (mainly slaves bought with the assistance of Kim) settle in the United States, creating an interesting and thriving Asian community. Many are welcomed simply due to Samuel's history in the United States.

August 25th: The Federal University of the South is completed in Charleston, South Carolina. The university would go on to help thousands of African Americans in the future to acquire an advanced education and become one of the best universities in the southeastern parts of the United States.

August 27th: Declaration of Pillnitz is made, with Prussian King Frederick William II and the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold II wishing to "put the King of France in a state to strengthen the bases of monarchic government."

September 1st: Former president Samuel Kim forms the first baseball league (Major League Baseball) and the first soccer league (Major League Soccer) in New York, which will expand to other New England states over the course of ten years. The leagues provide ordinary citizens with great baseball and soccer abilities to make a living (or in some cases, make additional earnings) playing either sport (or in some cases, both sports). The new sports leagues draw great attention from the populace, as it provides a form of entertainment and rivalry. The New York Yankees, the Brooklyn Dodgers, the New York Giants, and the Albany Rangers are the first baseball teams to be created. The New York City Soccer Club, the State Island Soccer Club, the Albany Hunters, and the Iroquois Warriors are the first soccer teams. The first season is slated to begin in 1792, with each organization receiving funding and assistance from various local businesses (and even from their respective state governments) to form their teams. The teams have no official "owners," though each team is basically self-run by the players. A "commissioner" is assigned to head both leagues (to oversee the leagues, to ensure that the teams are playing fairly, to make sure that the players are paid on time, and to arrange the schedule for the teams). William Duer becomes the first baseball commissioner, while Okwaho (English name Robert Williams) becomes the first soccer commissioner.

September 15th: Michael Faraday, whose parents immigrated to the United States looking for work in the growing industrial sector, is born in Boston, Massachusetts.

October 5th: A prototype of the M1790 Lee Rifle arrives in France. Antoine Lavoisier, who was selected as the Minister of Logistics, takes great interest in the potential of the rifle and orders for a similar prototype to be made for the Republican Army. The French replica is designed and finished in 1793, called the "Lavoisier Rifle" named after the minister.

October 28th: The Declaration of the Rights of Woman and the Female Citizen is published across France, as French feminist Olympe de Gouges advocates for women to have more political rights in the nation. Taking inspiration from the success of women's rights in the United States, the Declaration proclaims that the presence of women in politic would help legitimatize the French Republic and create a stronger sense of national unity. It also advocates for more women's right in general. The Declaration is controversial in France, but it will open up the conversation about women's rights in the republic.

November 7th: The first Chinese settlers arrive in the future state of Alabama. With the assistance of the American federal government, a settlement is created (named "Qian" after the Chinese Emperor) (AN: OTL Mobile, Alabama) and the settlers prepare to create farms in early spring. Northern Alabama is settled by Native Americans from various tribes (originating from Hisgi) while the southern parts are mainly settled by African Americans, Caribbean Africans, and Chinese. The territory becomes an odd place in the south over the next several decades: a mix of Native Americans, Chinese, African Americans, Caribbean Africans, and Whites.

December 2nd: Florida formally petitions to become a state. Congress is now tasked with voting on the issue within the next sixty days.

December 20th: The Treaty of Jassy ends Russia's war with the Ottoman Empire. Russia manages to increase its presence in the Black Sea, while the Ottomans suffer financially and loss of territory.

1792:

January 5th-January 22nd: The city of Liege erupts into revolution, influenced by the French Republicans nearby. Within several weeks, the prince bishop is removed and a republican government is declared. The newly proclaimed Republic of Liege requests formal protection from the French Republic, which Lafayette hesitantly accepts in secret.

February 4th: On America's Independence Day, Columbia is officially declared complete and ready for settlement. The president and his cabinet, along with Congress and the Supreme Court, takes up residence in the newly built capital. President Jefferson becomes the first president to take a seat in the "Oval Office," the official office of the executive. Many agencies remain in Philadelphia or New York City to ensure that the government can continue to function in the case that Columbia is occupied by a foreign power. However, Columbia officially becomes the seat of the American government and is one of the most carefully designed and constructed cities in the world. Boasting museums, monuments, parks, and a large library (along with a university under construction), Columbia becomes a relatively good place to move to due to its proximity to two large cities (Baltimore and Philadelphia) and its relatively aesthetic design.

Senators and Representatives receive their own homes and "apartment buildings" in the new capital for them to live in for free. Over time, these buildings will be redesigned to fit the taste of elected official from each respective state. Each will come with its own gardens, the best available amenities/furniture, and a crew of cleaners/cooks. These housing complexes (along with the crew of cleaners/cooks) will be paid for by the federal government and be a "reward" to each elected official.

At this time, the Capitol Building is not yet complete, though Congress does assemble in the building every once in a while to get a feel for the building.

February 9th: Congress unanimously votes for Florida's statehood (in the partially constructed Capitol Building). Florida becomes the 21st state in the Union and is allocated two Senators and four House seats (for its population of 72,219 people). The election of the Senators and Representatives are slated to happen on schedule with the 1792 elections (and adding six more electoral votes to the needed total in the presidential elections).

February 26th: The capital of Florida is designated in a complete "neutral" site in the middle of the state, named "Hammock" (a Seminole word for jungle) (AN: OTL Tampa Bay area). However, Sovtaj and St. Augustine remain as the two biggest cities in Florida.

March 1st: Francis II becomes the new leader of the Holy Roman Empire.

March 20th: North Carolina designates Raleigh its new state capital, in the newly formed Wake County.

March 25th: Congress passes the Asian Immigration Settlement Act of 1792, officially designating a part of the budget to assist Asian immigrants in their integration into the United States. This Act will help build a public school (for teaching English, government, and a wide variety of other subjects) in Xin, grant loans to help Asian immigrants acquire land, and help the expansion of Xin for future immigrants.

April 1st: After some spring training for the soccer and baseball players, the MLB and MLS kick off their season. Each MLB team will play 48 games while the MLS will play 30 games. The top two teams will move onto the championship. The season is expected to end around September. The four "stadiums" are built to house the two leagues (two for each league). Three of them are in New York, while a soccer pitch is made in Iroquois (in Onondaga). The MLB plays by the 2019 National League rules (with no DH), with a few modifications (such as the mound being 60 feet away and lowered two inches from the 2019 standard, pitchers pitching more innings, etc.). The MLS plays by the 2019 MLS rules.

April 5th: The Minas Gerais Conspiracy in Brazil fails, leading to an end of the Brazilian Separatist movement in Brazil for the time being.

May 1st: Austrian troops move into Liege to re-install the prince bishop to rule over Liege. A small French detachment in the city comes under attack by Austrian forces, finally bursting the tense relations between Republican France and Austria.

May 5th: The New York Stock Exchange is created with Samuel Kim being one of the original founders of the Exchange. The agreement is signed between various stockbrokers within the New York Times building, leading it to be called the "Times Agreement."

May 18th: Russia invades Poland-Lithuania, kicking off the Polish-Russian War.

May 21st: A fleet of American merchant ships arrives off the coast of Japan on May 10th, warning the Shogun that American scientists have predicted Mount Unzen will collapse and cause disaster to nearby areas. The fleet offers to help Japanese citizens to evacuate, but is firmly rebuffed by the Shogun. On May 21st, true to the American predictions, Mount Unzen collapses and causes massive earthquakes. The earthquake is followed up with a mega tsunami (by this time, the American fleet safely evacuated away from the area). While rejected by the Shogun, the American fleet manages to skillfully evacuate some locals that heeded their warnings. Though most of them return, a few dozen return to the United States along with the fleet, creating the first Japanese community in the young republic.

June: Britain gradually expands its settlements in British Colombia, claiming the region for itself and to maintain its presence in North America. Oregon Territory is also claimed for the British Crown.

June 17th: The first celebrations in memory of the Battle of Bunker Hill occur in Boston. The battle, which is deemed as the "turning point" of the United States, is widely known and remembered by many in Boston. "Bunker Day" will become a popular holiday in the New England region.

June 29th: A "Coalition" is declared against the French Republic, with the Holy Roman Empire, Prussia, Spain, Naples, Portugal, Sardinia, and several other Italian states joining in the fray. The intention of the Coalition is to restore the French monarchy over all of France and to put an end to the French Republic. Great Britain opts to stay out of the war, as they believe the French Civil War is allowing Great Britain's dominance overseas and the government is unwilling to commit to another war against a republic.

July 1st: A steam engine is first used in an iron mine in western Pennsylvania with great success.

July 14th: The United States enters into formal diplomatic relations with the Ottoman Empire. Privately, the United States enters into an agreement with the Ottoman Empire in that they will assist the Ottoman Empire with modernizing its military in exchange for protection against Barbary Pirates and trade. The Ottoman Empire also acquires a prototype of the M1790 Lee Rifle, though they will use muskets as their primary infantry weapons for some time. At the same time, the United States urges the Ottoman Empire to reform and modernize in order to survive against the growing European powers, which is duly noted by the Ottoman government.

August 1st: George Washington and his followers (of Vicinusum) establish the Vici Foundation, a foundation for poor Americans, former slaves and immigrants. The Vici Foundation opens up several homeless shelters, help the poor/homeless Americans to find jobs, and educate them in order for them to find success in the future. The Foundation also works to help newly arrived immigrants learn English and become "outstanding" Americans. The Foundation also promotes Anglicism with a few modifications (with an emphasis on brotherhood and neighborly love). The movement gradually grows from Virginia to neighboring states.

August 20th: The first battle between Republican France and the Coalition occurs in Strasbourg. The Coalition military, being mostly unaware of the complete change in military tactics, is completely routed by the Republican Army in the Battle of Strasbourg. The 20,000 French soldiers easily manage to blunt the Coalition offensive (numbering at 40,000). The Republican Army is given strict orders not to advance outside of French territory in order to deal with the domestic civil war, so they are forced to play defensive against the invading armies. However, the Battle of Strasbourg (which results in 25,000 Coalition casualties in exchange for 7,000 French casualties) boost Lafayette and his Republican government. It also rallies the people of France behind Lafayette, who is seen as the "savior against foreign invaders."

September 19th: With popular support and another victory against the Monarchists and Coalition forces (this time in Valence), Lafayette introduces sweeping political and land reforms. Women are granted the right to vote, slavery is officially abolished within the Republic (though Haiti will take this news badly), taxes are restructured, and peasants are granted land ownership. Seized noble lands are redistributed among the lower classes as well. This greatly increases support for the Republican government. The conscription laws are also passed by the National Assembly, but is also met with some support due to the various invasions France faces.

September 25th: Thomas Paine flees to the United States (avoiding war stricken France). He is welcomed warmly by the American government and settles in Richmond.

October 1st: In a thrilling "American Series" baseball championship tournament, the New York Yankees wins the title (beating the Albany Rangers in six games, best out of seven). In the "All-American Soccer Championship," the Iroquois Warriors defeat the New York City Football Club two games to one (best out of three) for its first title. The tournaments bring in thousands of spectators and develop a "fan" culture in New York, as people support the numerous clubs within the state. It also creates some sort of brotherhood between New York and Iroquois (and a sense of pride for the Iroquois, due to their victory in the soccer championship). After the tournaments, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Pennsylvania all join in the fray to form their own teams and join the league.

The victors of the tournaments receive special trophies. The New York Yankees receive a large gold trophy with a various flags and a player swinging a baseball bat standing on a podium (with a plaque that states "American Series Champions, New York Yankees 1792). The Iroquois Warriors receive a similar trophy, though the trophy is a soccer ball being crowned on top of a podium. These trophies will be proudly displayed at the state houses of their respective states. It will be a tradition for the trophies to be displayed in the state houses in the future, though the two first trophies will be donated to the American National Museums of History and Culture.

October 12th: The first rudimentary electrical telegraph is created in New York City, in the Federal University of New York. The inventor, James Forten, an African American inventor working with ARPA and a student in the university, manages to apply the theories made by Volta into a messaging device that uses electrical currents. The first telegraph is expensive to make and is very limited in terms of distance (it could only send messages to another telegraph twenty feet away due to the limitations in wires and metallurgy). However, his invention is hailed as the beginning of modern communications.

October 15th: The Nootka Conventions occur between Spain and Great Britain. Spain agrees to allow Britain to claim and settle into Oregon and British Columbia after a tense meeting. With Spain preoccupied in Europe and Great Britain jockeying for influence in North America, Spain is forced to cede to Britain's demands. Thus, Britain is able to maintain its presence in North America through the West Coast and Rupert's Land.

November 1st: The first dynamite is invented by ARPA, with the aid of several researchers. The invention is considered an important invention for commercial use (mining) and military use (explosive).

November 6th: The 1792 elections sweep the nation. Voter turnout rates are high, averaging in the high sixties, as the political parties seek to make gains in Congress and possibly nab the presidency. However, Jefferson wins the presidential election just barely (closer than his first time being elected) with 103 votes (202 electoral votes in total due to the addition of Florida, 101 votes to win). Florida swings primarily towards Jefferson, allowing him to hold onto the presidency. The runner up, John Adams of the Unionist Party (as John Jay opted to run after Jefferson is out of office), wins 90 votes while the Frontier Party (with Daniel Boone as the candidate) receives the remainders. The Democratic Party chooses not to run a candidate and allies itself with the Republican Party candidate (Jefferson), which allows Jefferson to prevent the House from voting on the new president (his incumbency and the high rate of economic growth also helps him in this matter).

The political makeup of the 7th United States Congress will be revealed in the next update...

November 25th: The Paris Declaration of 1792. Republican France condemns the invasion of foreign powers and declares that it will help the "will of the people" spread throughout Europe. This sparks a lot of anger and fear from the European monarchs. However, Britain strangely remains silent despite this remark.

Since we've finished up the Asia Arc, I will be moving the timeline in two year intervals to speed things up. I will still provide POVs and important events in a separate update, but these updates will give the readers a overview of the events happening in the United States and abroad.
