An analog to the real-life World War II, this second global war is the backdrop to Harry Turtledove's Settling Accounts tetralogy of the Timeline-191 series. This shows what could have happened had the Confederacy won the American Civil War - this is not what actually happened. The focus of this page is on the North American war, albeit supplemented with info from the European conflict.

  • An analog to the real-life World War II, this second global war is the backdrop to Harry Turtledove's Settling Accounts tetralogy of the Timeline-191 series. This shows what could have happened had the Confederacy won the American Civil War - this is not what actually happened. The focus of this page is on the North American war, albeit supplemented with info from the European conflict. The Central Powers include the United States, the German Empire, Austria-Hungary, Ottoman Empire, Ireland, China and the Republic of Quebec. The Entente consists of the Confederate States, Great Britain, France, Russia, and Japan. The war is never called "World War II" in Turtledove's novels. In these articles, this war is referred to as the "Second Great War" to avoid confusion with our timeline's war. The characters themselves say there's no official name for this war but instead call it alternatively call it "The Greater War" and "The War". In one of the books, one remarked that the war was yet unnamed, but usually called "The War", with an expletive in front of it. In this world, the CSA is similar to Nazi Germany, complete with a totalitarian leader, President Jake Featherston (ruled 1934-1944), and his Freedom Party. The USA, in this timeline a combination of our timeline's Western Allies and the Soviet Union, is led here by Socialist President Al Smith and then his vice president, Charles La Follette (1942-44).
