Would either USA or CSA join the fight in Europe? Would only one nation join? Would a split America mean no allied victory? Interesting stuff to think about.

I'm frequently in Akron at Canal Park for work (I work for MLB.com,
read my blog for more info on that... sorry for the shameless plug). I've only lived in Ohio for a couple of years, but I like it. I'm originally from New Jersey and I enjoy the somewhat less frenetic pace in the Buckeye State. Now if I could get people to stop making fun of my accent...
As for alt history, I'm also a huge fan (big surprise there). Hopefully some of those questions, or at least variations on them, will get answered eventually in Fractured America.
Thanks for reading, I'm glad you're enjoying it.
