Publius Claudius Pulcher (d 249 BC/246 BC) (of the Claudii family) was a Roman general. His father was Gaius Claudius Centho. He was the brother of the famous Roman politician Appius Claudius Caudex (consul in 264 BC). He was the first of the Claudii to be given the cognomen "Pulcher" ("handsome").

He was curule aedile in 253 BC and consul in 249. As consul he was given command of the Roman fleet during the First Punic War. He lost the Battle of Drepana against the Carthaginians after ignoring a bad omen when the sacred chickens refused to eat. According to Valerius Maximus, Suetonius[1] and Cicero, Claudius threw them into the sea, ut biberent, quando esse nollent ("so that they might drink, since they refused to eat"). He was recalled to Rome and ordered to appoint a dictator; his nomination of his subordinate Marcus Claudius Glicia was overruled. He was tried for incompetence and impiety and was fined, and died soon afterwards, possibly by suicide.

The Roman general Barbatio's campaign with Julian was pretty kek-worthy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbatio

In 357, Julian's second year as Caesar, plans were laid for an offensive against the Alamanni, the most dangerous of the enemy tribes. It was intended that two armies, the first commanded by Julian and the second by Barbatio, would advance in a classic Roman tactic known as a forceps or forfex, forming diverging wings, embracing and destroying the enemy.[3] Julian then marched from his camp in Sens to Reims, while Barbatio moved north with 25,000 troops from Italy to Raetia. While these moves were underway another German tribe, the Laeti, passed between both armies and attacked Lyons.[4] Julian sent three elite cavalry squadrons to intercept them, attacking and killing a large number as they returned from the raid loaded with booty. The survivors fled past Barbatio's camp unchallenged. The commander excused himself to the Emperor by blaming others for his neglect of duty.[5]

Still later, Julian asked Barbatio for some boats to form a pontoon bridge over the Rhine to pursue another enemy tribe. Barbatio simply had the boats burned.[6] Supplies intended for Julian's army were also destroyed. Eventually the planned pincer movement was frustrated when Barbatio, in the words of Ammianus, "…as if he had ended the campaign successfully, distributed his soldiers in winter quarters and returned to the Emperor's court to frame some charges against Caesar, as was his custom."[7] His departure left Julian open to attack, but against all expectations he defeated the Alemanni at the Battle of Strasbourg. Constantius, in distant Milan, immediately claimed the victory as his own.

German colonization of Texas. Texas becomes an independent state during its revolution, German settlers eventually supplant US anglo settlers. Texas remains mostly independent with German empire backing from Adelsverein. After a second war against Santa Ana, more land is taken from Mexico, mostly stuff that would've went to the US and parts of current day northern Mexico. End result is a massive, German sympathetic state in the middle of the new world.

Assuming the Civil War continued on as it did (Probably with slightly worse results since one less state to back them), the Great War would eventually come along, the US would probably not intervene due to the threat of reprisal from the new country to the south of their borders. Great War turns into a stalemate without the US to completely seal the deal, no harsh terms placed on Germany/Austria. Alternatively, the US does enter the war, and another front opens up between the US and the Adelsverein. More bloodshed happens.

WW2 never fires because the deal Germany gets isn't harsh enough to incite radicalism. Enter in a three way cold war between the German empire, a Franco-Anglo alliance, and a Russian wildcard.

Japan conquers a good chunk of mainland China due to no one intervening.

Because Alexander actually won battles and conquered territory.

Rommel is the memest of meme generals. Even the campaign he's most famous for, the 1941-1942 desert war, was hardly a show of superior generalship. He successfully implemented tactics that other people came up with, and then squandered it on a complete lack of strategy in mounting offensives that he didn't have the logistical ability to sustain. He ignored orders to perpetuate his failure, and when it inevitably blew up in his face, he blamed everyone around him. He did well at Gazala, sure, but he had his share of easy wins against nothing forces (Sonnenblume), imbecilic blunders (1st Tobruk), and battles where he just got outmaneuvered (Crusader, 2nd Alamein).

He's not a good general. I'm not even sure he's an average general. But everyone treats him like some sort of transcendent military genius. In part, it's because of a second, completely undeserved reputation, that of being free of the Nazi taint, which involves deliberately ignoring all the times he volunteered for Hitler's bodyguard duty, or how he would constantly try to win arguments with his superiors in the Heer by appealing to Der Fuhrer.

I can certainly see how that could be possible. Say maybe the English decided to expand their holdings in Belize and take over Mexico. That would probably take care of Central America at least.

>His authority quickly and quietly accepted by all classes, the new ruler governed the city with a stern justice which was in marked contrast to the recent reign of license and disorder. In great state the tribune moved through the streets of Rome, being received at St Peter's with the hymn Veni Creator spiritus, while in a letter the poet Petrarch urged him to continue his great and noble work, and congratulated him on his past achievements, calling him the new Camillus, Brutus and Romulus. All the nobles submitted, though with great reluctance; the roads were cleared of robbers; tranquillity was restored at home; some severe examples of justice intimidated offenders; and the tribune was regarded by all the people as the destined restorer of Rome and Italy.

>In July in a sonorous decree he proclaimed the sovereignty of the Roman people over the empire, but before this he had set to work upon his task of restoring the authority of Rome over the cities and provinces of Italy, of making the city again caput mundi. He wrote letters to the cities of Italy, asking them to send representatives to an assembly which would meet on 1 August, when the formation of a great federation under the headship of Rome would be considered. On the appointed day a number of representatives appeared, and after some elaborate and fantastic ceremonials Cola, as dictator, issued an edict citing Louis IV, Holy Roman Emperor and his rival Charles, afterwards Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor, and also the imperial electors and all others concerned in the dispute, to appear before him in order that he might pronounce judgment in the case.

The Confucian system formed the basis of their entire social system and systems of Governance. It's an incredibly conservative ideology that is based on unity and maintenance of order, promotes a class of scholar-officials, and promotes agriculture as the primary source of a nation's wealth. One majorly influential component of it is that it frowns upon merchants and mercantile enterprises as motivated by greed and thus makes them very low socially. This had a profound effect on their foreign policy and on the development of industry that had massive repercussions.

Rommel wasn't a bad general, but he became famous for whooping the Brits because their commanding officer was shite.

If you want a good general look up Erich Von Manstein. He like other generals was a bit full of himself (in his memoir he blamed Hitler for everything, but it was written after the war so he probably had to if he wanted people to read it)

But he was actually a really good general that has unfortunately gone unnoticed. Hell, he along side Guderian were the ones who planned to use the Ardenne forest to be the focus of the mechanized units

That's because the divide that brought the first civil war is no longer concentrated in a north-south geographic region but in a rural-urban divide. I believe things would run so much better if large urban centers had their own isolated administrations separate from that of the countryside. The desires of the two populations are wildly different from each other, yet neither stands without the other.

Instead of shackling the two together and creating a schism, it would be far better to simply allow the two to make their own choices.

The American revolutionaries fail to get international support and the American colonies are retained by the British.

No French revolution. France remains and economic and political mess, which is just barely able to limp along due to the fact that it didn't waste a lot of money supporting the revolutionaries. No Napoleon, so the rest of Europe isn't dragged kicking and screaming into the 19th century. The Holy Roman Empire isn't disbanded, and without the revolutions to spread the concept of nationalism Germany never unites.

With France still weak and the rest of Europe still relatively backwards, Britain enjoys an even greater advantage and the British Empire establishes total global hegemony.

A common misconception, Agustin and Salvador were never heirs to the Mexican crown, the title Prince of Iturbide could not even be inherited and had to be designed by the emperor. Maximilian actually adopted the guys to put some pressure on Karl Ludwig, so in a sense, Franz Ferdinand was kinda heir to the Mexican Empire (this of course before his uncle and cousin's death)

- Independent Republic of Texas
- Independent Republic of California
- French speaking Louisiana, Eastern Arkansas, and Southern Missouri
- Independent Quebec

I hate blob states and I think being part of a blob means sacrificing too many domestic/regional concerns for international ones.

Many interesting cultures in North America are suppressed because they're forced into blobs.
- I didn't even know who the Quebecois were until I was an adult because the French Canadian identity is never talked about internationally as such. I don't think the Quebecois will ever be given their due internationally unless they're an independent of Canada. Not that Canada has done terrible wrong by them, but if the Quebecois want the same "I know who you are" thing as French, German, English, Mexican people etc etc they will have to be their own country.
- Francophone Culture in Louisiana was suppressed by the Federal government in the Post-Civil War years in the name of fostering loyalty to the Union. Previous to the Civil war, the Francophone and the Creoles had setup French speaking Schools. These were all shut down post war. New Orleans currently is in no way receiving the support it needs from the American state; how many damn years did it take to recover from Hurricane Katrina? The economy ain't up to much either. New Orleans & Louisiana are not a priority for the American state, so why even be in it?
- Texas only gets back 1 dollar for every 2 dollars it sends the Federal government. Also being part of the US means it has to be part of US politics ie the two party system, which forces it to be Republican all the time, despite the fact that like 40% of the state votes Democratic. If Texas had a parliamentary system their politics would be so much more reflective of the desire of their citizens.

North America could be so interesting and diverse and fostering so many unique cultures, but instead it's all sacrificed in the name of blob.

Britbongs were so badly BTFO by Rommel, they had to build a legend around the man they were facing, portraying him as the best German general in order to mitigate the damage.

Losing to a military mastermind is easier than explaining why your million strong Cairo Front is being pushed back by 30k Germans.

US has developed a similar myth around Yamamoto in order to mitigate their own failures. Meanwhile the Soviets don't bother discussing the dozen German generals that were kicking their faces in.

I think the American view of Yamamoto was that he was the only Japanese commander that really understood that a war with the US was unwinnable but when he couldn't stop it planned and executed it anyway because of loyalty to Japan

maybe Rommel is well-regarded because the history books are written by professional historians who actually have studied the North Africa campaign in detail, and not random idiots on the internet who have clearly never read more than a brief overview of the campaign.

This is a key factor my my fantasy world's history.
The Europeans crusade against them and push them out, and then invade the Aztec's world, butchering the people and creating a number of independent states (see the Crusader Kingdoms), that eventually form a greater confederacy that is later broken up into a series of Balkanized states to never be a global power again.
