Gallatin

In 1776, Alexander Hamilton died at Trenton, and Albert Gallatin became the first Secretary of the Treasury. Without Hamilton New York failed to ratify the Constitution in 1787, and the new United States fractured.
Germany unified Western Europe in WWI (which only lasted two years), but, decades later, imperial Japan and Soviet Russia allied and threw both European great powers, Britain and Germany (which inherited the entirety of the old French Empire) out of Asia, ending when Japan invented the atomic bomb and used it on Calcutta.
Now, in 2004, Japan, Britain, Russia, Germany, and the Republic of Texas also have the bomb, and the world is more or less at peace.
