Timeline[edit | edit source]

  • 1778 – Elector Maximilien Joseph of Bavaria recovers from smallpox, avoiding the War of Bavarian Succession for now. This allows Frederick II to support the Patriots without the fear of a British blockade during the OTL war. One of his sons, Henry, joins the Patriots as an officer.
  • 1782 – Maximilien Joseph suffers a cerebral hemorrhage and dies. War of Bavarian Succession begins.
  • 1784 – While riding his horse in Virginia, General George Washington falls off his horse and breaks his neck, killing him.
  • 1786 – The Continental Congress offers Prince Henry the title as "King of the United States." Henry accepts the offer.
  • 1789 – Prince Henry is crowned as "Henry I" in New York City. The first general election is held during the month of March to assemble the Congress.
  • 1791 – Louis XVI flees France. The National Constituent Assembly declares that the Bourbon monarchy has abdicated and is exiled from France. The Duke of Orleans, a supporter of the revolution, is declared the heir to the French throne and ascends as King Philip VII. King Louis Philippe is willing to serve as a constitutional monarch. The United States formally recognizes the Orleans monarchy as the legitimate government of France.
  • 1792 – With the influence of exiled King Louis XVI, Austria formally declares war on France, demanding the reinstatement of the described "legitimate" King of France.
  • 1800 – The French Consulate is established, with General Napoleon Bonaparte serving as Consul. The Consul is officially bound to ten-year terms, however this changes in 1811.
