The 62 States, 4 Territories, and 1 Commonwealth of the United States of America.Highlights:The Bahamas and most of OTL Canada were annexed in the much more successful War of 1812.Trinidad was annexed by the US from Britain during the Oregon Crisis of 1846 by a particularly zealous admiral who thought the US and Britain were at war when reports came in of ships firing on eachother.Hawaii voluntarily became a protectorate of the United States in 1898 and was invaded by the Japanese during the Great War (1938-1946), who killed the members of the royal family and brutalized the population. After the war the US formalized its rule over the island, but left it a Commonwealth like OTL Puerto Rico.Cuba, the Philippines, and Puerto Rico were never US territories because the Spanish American War never happened. The US sent its navy to intimidate Spain to recognize Cuban independence, however.Panama became a state in 1979. The region had seen far more development under US dominion than in OTL as part of the American "Caribbean Triangle," A policy to essentially provide naval containment of the islands in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico from, at first European colonial ambitions, and later Russian fascist infiltrators.Taiwan (Formosa) was made an independent nation in the First China war, with the US guaranteeing its independence with a naval base and several thousand troops. The hope was to serve as a buffer between the Anglo-French colonies in China and the German and Japanese colonies. After the War the US formally annexed it and it achieved statehood in 1972.EDIT: Presidents of the United States
