    On the other hand, the AAR is absolutely glorious in both idea, style and execution. I'll be following. Bonne chance!
    Thanks! I'm afraid the only way to plausibly have an independent Louisiana is to crush the Haitian rebellion (and brutally, too). It remains to be seen, however, how long Saint Domingue will remain subdued...

    Yep! Some forces are too great to be stopped by alternative history, and British cultural imperialism is one of them!

    Thanks! I'm hoping to keep the flavour of the newspaper format as much as possible.

    Thank you, sir, for hosting such a promising competition. Anything that encourages new AARs has to be a good thing!

    ***


    To all: There's a few issues of the prologue to get through, so I'll be posting those fairly frequently until we reach 1836. A prize of kudos to the first person who correctly guesses who Louisiana's ruler will be in 1836! Hopefully the updates will be coherent enough to follow the story, but please let me know if the format needs updating or tweaking at all. As far as I know, I'm the first person to do this!
