Here is my alternate timeline. Do you think this is plausible?
Before war of 1812
US history as in our timeline
War of 1812
Drawn out and results in a North South split. The South is basically everything below the Mason Dixon Line. Above that is the North. The British integrate Seattle bay into Canada.
After War of 1812
Something like the Mexican-American war happens but in this alternate timeline, it is more like the Mexican-Texan war as Texas stays independent from the US. After the war, more southern settlers go westward to Texas. Due to the Manifest Destiny ideology, Texas expands westward and reaches the California coast first whereas the North is stuck with the Oregon territory. Here is what the map looks like:
Then everything stays stable until 1860 when yet another war is declared, this time the Civil war.
The South and Texas are on the same side of the war and they win. Slavery spreads throughout the North. But no conquering has been done really, just preparation for it.
Then everything stays calm in the US and Texas, slavery is abolished peacefully, and it isn't until WWII that Texas goes to war again. Texas stayed neutral during WWI, preparing its military for the eventual WWII. Lots of both women and men join the Texan military. The South gets integrated into Texas. The USA starts to feel nervous.
WWII
Texas sides on the Axis. It destroys what is left of the USA due to military size and a better military strategy. Supersonic bomber planes are developed in Texas so not only do bombs explode but the sonic boom also does significant damage. Texas wins the Texan-American war which is part of this alternate WWII. It then integrates what is left of the US and instead of the United States of America, you have the United States of Texas. Texas has been breaking up into states this whole time but the central government is in Houston, Old Texas(Old Texas as in the area of the original Republic of Texas).
