The British have just defeated the French in the Seven Years' War. Now imagine that, in the aftermath of the war, the British agree to a form of Benjamin Franklin's Albany Plan, creating the first Commonwealth nation. No Revolutionary War is ever fought, no United States are ever founded, no Manifest Destiny takes place. This thesis is a creative writing project and should be considered a portion of a novel that attempts to depict the North America where the aforementioned details were a reality.enThe author of this work is the copyright owner.
