Hey, /his/. I have a question for you.
What would have happened if Mexico fighted the U.S with the Central Powers in WW1 according the Zimmerman's Telegram?.
I mean, it obviusly had been defeated but what would have happened AFTER?

They would've done the same that they did in Panama but in Tehuantepec
>>
The US would have occupied Mexico for a couple years, eventually instating a puppet regime. It is interesting to think about how American interventions in South American would have been impacted, especially during the Cold War.

Apparently Herbert Hoover and his wife were both fluent in Mandarin Chinese. They would speak it to each other in the White House when they wanted to keep their conversations private.

Probably one of my favorites:
Andrew Jackson had a grey parrot which was present at his funeral. The parrot loudly swore nonstop through the ceremony and it had to be removed.

Ulysses S. Grant's birth name was actually "Hiram". He adopted Ulysses as his first name (it used to be his middle name) when Congressman Hamer accidentally wrote it as his first name while nominating him for the military academy. He probably preferred it this way; his nickname became "Sam" among army colleagues at the academy, since his initials were U.S. Grant. Otherwise his initials would've been the less-intimidating H.U.G. During the war he got nicknamed "Unconditional Surrender" Grant following his victory at Fort Donelson.

Also, though the S didn't stand for anything according to Grant, Hamer wrote it down as "Simpson".

Was importing slaves from Africa to work on plantations in Americas really necessary? Why couldn't the Europeans do it themselves?

Paying people enough to work the plantation would make them far less profitable.
>>
Europeans were dispersing across an entire continent and so it was very hard to gather enough labor willing to do such work.

Plus their economies were already competing with slave holding civilizations. It would have been prohibitive to pay real working wages.

So, much like America in 2017 agricultural labor was relegated to an ethnic underclass without citizenship.

You don't want 9 dollar avocados.

Understand nothing much has changed since the antebellum South.

>only illegal Mexicans work in agriculture

Why has the US gone to war with every other country on the continent (including the European empires) except for El Salvador, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Jamaica, and a handful of tiny island meme nations? Even most of those get lumped in if you count privateers, filibusters, etc.

1. If [argument a] is made, then the [argument a] has the property [is argued by x].
2. However, it could have been the case that [argument a] could have the property [is argued by y] in a possible world.
3. So, it is not the case that [argument a] necessarily entails being [argued by x].
4. If it is the case that being [argued by x] is not necessary entailed by [argument a], then [argument a] and being [argued by x] are separate.
∴ So, [argument a] and [being argued by x] are separate.

Obviously the farther back you go, the more wildly a minor event could radically change our timeline.

For example, imagine that Philip II of Macedon survived the assassination attempt. Alexander's genius would have been hidden for quite some time, who knows if Persia would have been fully conquered, etc.
