I'm new to steampunk, other than having a casual onlooker's definition in my head; but I am deep into geopolitics, history and the background you have laid out. Especially the America wrinkle. Looking forever to the character intros.

I'm well into history myself and its the idea of "what if" that really makes Steampunk for me. I'm penning a piece about writing Steampunk and what makes Steampunk work that might interest you. I love to work on What if projects , a few years ago a friend from Bulgaria put the idea to me: what if the Soviet Union had been Britain or America at the time of Barbarossa in 1941. That was fun and interesting to research, although there ended up as three basic scenarios rather than one, very surprising answers as well. Something for another post one day, if I can find the piece.
