Did you find anything in particular that you like, lordroel? I like the timeline a lot. Good to hear (or rather, read). I wonder how OTL America would react to a world in which Germany won the First World War and became the dominant power until the '86 Eagle came along. Likewise, I'm also interested in discussing TTL denizens' thoughts on the world that this new United States comes from--one from fifty years into a different future where the Central Powers lost in the First Weltkrieg an again in a second one (!). And, of course, the Cold War that ensued shortly after that.

The Kaiserreich world will be no match for a country which is advance then them in all areas. 1986 America might be able to build up relations with Canada and Australasian Confederation and the rest of the Entente.

What about the Dominion of Canada? How would the British government-in-exile react to its modern, non-Syndicalist next-door neighbor? I think for the most part they'd be confused and scared until they realize that this US could possibly be the key to the liberation of the British Isles.

Well checking the Kaiserreich Official Wiki, the Dominion of Canada most likely will be able to go along fine with 1986 America.

America: 'Britain? France? Both Communists?' Canada: 'Yes... yes they are.' America: 'Well, LET'S GO AND KILL SOME COMMIES!'

Well, the US will want t get started methng out of liberation aside from one less socialist country in the world they've been sent to. I wonder how that might go for France.

And a tip for the German Imperial Navy, stay in port, you do not want to encounter the 1986s US navy in combat, i can guarantee all of your nice big battleships will be send to the bottom of the sea.

Even if that's the case, the Germans can at least take contentment in the fact that this new, fifty-years-more-advanced United States is anticommunist to the bone as well as the premier capitalist power from its--and now of this--world.

Well they can always make a deal, you stay out of mainland Europe and free the UK, we will deal with France if you give us some support when needed.

Although it’d doubtlessly have priorities that come before this, I wonder if the US might be willing to technologically uplift other nations like Imperial Germany and Mitteleuropa in general.
Doing the same for the likes of TTL’s Britain or France is totally out of the question, however. Of course, Gus Hall & Friends (whose opinions shouldn’t matter, mind you) will likely disagree.

I wonder if Mossad had branches in America? Maybe they will try to kill people who were high-ranking Nazis in their timeline.
