1792

Due to public and government pressure, Jefferson resigns to be replaced by Rudolph. Jefferson’s political career never fully recovers. Madison instead becomes the de facto leader of the American Republican faction, though is unable to win as much of a Congressional control as Jefferson had. Therefore, many of Hamilton’s later proposals are able to be passed, including increased development of machinery and allowing women to work. However, many of his other plans fail, such as child labor introduction.
  King Henry I finalizes his inspections of many militia units and is not impressed. He begins to consolidate the Armed Forces into a federal service, further diminishing local militias, and fundamentally changing the 2nd Amendment. Rudolph uses the position of the State Secretary to position the Governors into sending State and Territorial militia funding into a Federal Defense Budget. Many local state and local militiamen are simply formed into federal forces, receiving greater training and discipline. However, militia leaders are often replaced by federally selected commanders.
  The Northwest Indian War begins to turn in the American’s favor, and atrocities and war crimes bring far more severe punishments. Britain becomes increasingly neutral in the conflict, but offers asylum to Native tribes resisting America. By the end of the year, most of the Indian Confederation has either surrendered or fled westward.
  Publicly, the government remains neutral in the conflict in France, while privately Hamilton calls the Revolutionary Republic “illegitimate”. The Republican Government of France is less enthusiastic towards American relations, as relations with Britain become stronger and America refuses support for colonial slave revolts in the West Indies.
  The American Mint is established, with King Henry and Chancellor George Washington adorning much of the currency. 
  Congress passes the Acts of Conscription. This requires that all free men, upon the age of 16, be required to serve a term of at least three years in the Federal military. Those 19 to 21 at the time of signing must serve at least two. Those older must sign for a Federal draft. This Act see much bipartisan approval, as Federalists see an increase in power to the Federal Government, and the Republicans see it as an anti-British advancement in the Northwest Territories.
  The revolution in Haiti terrifies the delegates from southern states. Efforts are made in Congress to overturn legislation concerning treatment of slavery, arguing leniency would eventually lead to slave revolts on American soil. King Henry is forced to make a statement, lending his support to retain the laws. In his remarks, King Henry states belief that fairer treatment of slaves would lead to less bloodshed between races. Anti and pro slavery factions emerge in Congress.
