In this Alt the Pilgrims landed, but immediately established a new country. The Revolutionary War was fought 150 years earlier, and the Brits won. They didn’t get the last laugh, though. Pilgrims kept coming and coming to the new world and started a terrorism campaign that lasted 100 years. By 1740 the British pulled out to Canada and the Christian States of America (C.S.A.) was born. By now, the CSA is established as a world power (though not the only one). The CSA is not a pleasant place to visit. They live under strict Protestant Christian law. There is no alcohol, taking the Lord’s name in vain, or premarital sexuality involved. Also, no Catholics, Jews, or Atheists allowed. They did free the slaves a century before we did, though.
Thankfully, their technology is 100 years behind ours so we didn’t have to worry about them coming over on Bridges to save us. Here is a slide of the CSA Flag:
