| abstract | - In the 18th Century A.D., human and Earth history take a an alternate path with two fundamental changes. First, the British defeat the American rebels in the 13 colonies, which never form an independent United States of America. Secondly, in 1789 in France, the elected Estates-General declares KIng Louis the 16th deposed and grants the French throne to Birtish King George the 3rd. France is jointly ruled by the elected Estates-General and a Viceroy appointed by the British monarch. In 1799, George the 3rd appoints Napoleon Bonaparte as French Viceroy, and the British and the French join forces to battle the the Russians, the Prussians, the Austrians, the Spanish, the Portuguese, and the Ottomans. The Spanish and Portuguese monarchs and their governments are driven from Europe as they subsequently form the independent empires of Brazil and New Spain in Latin America while the British seize control of the Philippines and Portuguese colonies in Africa. In Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East the British-French coalition by the time of Napoleon's death in 1821 had conquered German, Russian, and Ottoman territories, which by 1825 were combined with Britain, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, and France into the United British Empire with the British monarch ruling the entire Empire, although local populations by 1830 won representation in both houses of Parliament (the Lords and the Commons). In 1834, the British possessions in North America, the Caribbean, India, and the Philippines were fully integrated into the United British Empire, including parliamentary representation for the local populations.
