52 Tales of 2019 - Reverse Map Game 2019 - 1954


1954
North America
Canada
With the facilities in Winnipeg repaired after the War, the Manitoban Provincial Government moves back there from Swan River.


United States
Idaho is readmitted to the Union.

The United States officially annexes Dakota as a Territory.

United Kingdom
With the war over, it was time for changes. Westminster passes the Empire-Commonwealth Renaming Act 1954. The act sets the stage for the decolonisation that would come in later history. The most immediate effect is Queensland and New Zealand gaining independence. Another effect is the Imperial Council being renamed to the Commonwealth Council. The name change of the Imperial Commonwealth of the Nations of Greater Britannia, the Northlands and their Dominions (or British Empire) to the Commonwealth of Nations (Commonwealth) would take place the next year, after India's independence.
(Of course, the Imperial Council was always subordinate to Westminster, with the Prime Minister capable of vetoing any decisions the Dominion Representatives could put forward.)


Iberia
In Madrid, an Espinoist march is stopped by police before it can start...

In Portugal, reforms take place to allow for elections to be more free and fair. (Until this point, there had been a lot of corruption and electoral fraud...)
