We have no means of determining whether Lincoln would had done a good job at Reconstruction. Considering his backing for the Corwin Ammendment, preserving slavery in Union occupied territory, freeing slaves only in areas controlled by the Confederacy, last minute overtures to Davis ... Lincoln did not give a fuck about slavery/blacks, he cared about the UNION. That's what he went to war for.Elaborate, please?
Here's another what if question for discussion: Without the 22nd Amendment, Eisenhower wins a 3rd term in a landslide in 1960 over JFK.It was successful; the problem was it was short-lived.
Go on.....‘AHC: More Anglicized Quebec’.
Swamp Keybeckers with Anglos, Scots, Irish, Germans, whoever. Impose Common Law, with no Gallic exceptions. Enforce education in English. Roman Catholic priests imported from Ireland, Germany and Italy, Frenchmen need not apply.‘AHC: More Anglicized Quebec’.
Here's one big What If Scenario: The 1955 coup against Argentine President Juan Peron fails horribly.Swamp Keybeckers with Anglos, Scots, Irish, Germans, whoever. Impose Common Law, with no Gallic exceptions. Enforce education nin English. Roman Catholic priests imported from Ireland, Germany and Italy, Frenchmen need not apply.
If that started in 1763, then Quebec would be Anglicised (as in English speaking majority, Canadien "culture" marginalised) by 1800, with quaint pockets of French speakers surviving up to 1850 at best.
‘AHC: More Anglicized Quebec’.
Pretty much this. The British essentially ethnically cleansed the Maritimes of Acadiens during & immediately after the Seven Years' War (many of whom eventually ended up in Louisiana) and that's the single biggest reason as to why you will never hear of the Maritime provinces wanting to join Quebec in secession from Canada in the 20th-21st centuries. Crippling Quebec City as much as possible in favor of Montreal (the greatest Anglophone bastion in Quebec), perhaps making the latter the provincial capital in the former's stead, will also help.Swamp Keybeckers with Anglos, Scots, Irish, Germans, whoever. Impose Common Law, with no Gallic exceptions. Enforce education nin English. Roman Catholic priests imported from Ireland, Germany and Italy, Frenchmen need not apply.

How about several Sports What Ifs:
No two term tradition?‘Thomas Jefferson Wins The 1796 Election’.
And thus, succeeds Washington as the 2nd President instead of the 3rd (after John Adams IOTL).
Even with the greeny fucktards scuppering the Żarnowiec power plant, there is another route to Polish nukes ... when the USSR collapses, have somebody with a suitcase with a million dollars or Deutschmarks show up at the gates of one of the half dozen bases with Soviet nukes.I don't know why it has not been brought up by our Polish posters like @ATP @Batrix2070 and @Buba but a nuclear-able or capable Poland would be interesting to read about both during Cold War and after.

During the Cold War Poland is a Soviet sock puppet, so I am not sure if a nuke capable Poland changes things much.
Afterwrad ... IMO Polish elites have too much of "if we do X or Z, what will the West think?" mindset, charateristic of a small country, and not enough of Hungarian style "fuck the West, but is X or Z good for Magyarország?".
So I expect them to "sell off" the nukes in return for - hopefully - hefty economic aid the country desperately needed. E.g. writing off all foreign debt, quicker EEC entry etc.
No two term tradition?
