Thank you Malachi.
I agree with MrMalachiCrunch 100% as usual.
How about an unseparated Russian Empire Stretching from Germany, encompassing Poland, the Baltic states, central Asia, all the way to the Bering Straight! Throwing their weight around all over Africa, Latin America and even south Asia! Now that would have made world history interesting…
Oh the what ifs…
I would enlist to kill Russians… lol

Not long after the end of the war in Europe, an American official (I think it was the U.S. ambassador to the Soviet Union) spoke to Stalin and said something along the lines of, “It must be very gratifying for you to have captured Berlin, after all the suffering that your people went through during the war.” Stalin looked back at him and said, “Tsar Alexander got all the way to Paris.”
One of the pictures that sticks in my memory from my Western Civilization class was of a huge bearded Tzarist soldier in Paris after France defeat in 1815.

Yes. As I recall, Russia then sold Alaska to the U.S. – an interesting case of Russian capitalism (though admittedly in the pre-Soviet period).
Nothing like a heavily indebted nation having to sell territory to pay the bills. Say….how much for Florida?
$13
Less now that they are forcing all the out of country tourists to get an international license. So much for US independence!

Canada really needs to get an 11th province in the tropics where our snow birds can keep their money patriated!
