If Lincoln hadn't invaded the Southern states, there never would have been a WW I and therefor there never would have been a WW II, no fascism and no communism.
Where do you even get that?
If anything, a lack of a strong United States would have encouraged the main cause of WWI, which was colonialism and the competition to expand. Without us telling the Europeans the Americas were off limits, they'd have just fought over those as well.
In fact, quite the contrary, I could see the CSA siding with the UK while the rump US (Probably just the Northeast after the Midwest and West formed their own countries) sided with Germany.
Plausible but certainly not a fact that supports any kind of contention.
Well, I think his position is supposition,and so is mine.
But I don't imagine any scenario where anyone would be better off in an alternative timeline where the CSA won the Civil War.
Most of us probably wouldn't exist. I only exist because my father from Germany met my mother from Missouri.
