Republic Of Polish Michigan

The Michigan territory is largely uninvolved in the American civil war. After the civil war, the U.S becomes more interested in English traditions due to a more large amount of English Americans than in our timeline, as a result of this, the U.S government sees the Michigan Territory as not true American territory so the U.S government tries to enforce English traditions,customs and language on the Michigan territory however this fails. With the people of the Michigan territory felling untrustworthy of the U.S government, the Michigan territorial government declares independence from the United States as the Republic of Michigan-Poland.

With the U.S military still having the affects of the American civil war, the U.S government decides to agree to the independence of Michigan to avoid more conflict. The Republic of Polish Michigan remains neutral in world politics and large amount of Poles from Poland move to Michigan-Poland during the World Wars. Today the official language of the Republic of Polish Michigan is Polish and the regional languages are English,Ojibwe,Potawatomi,and Odawa. Today the amount of Polish diaspora around the world is little or none because most Poles either stayed in Poland or came to the Republic of Polish Michigan

Today the culture of the Republic of Polish Michigan is mostly Polish along with several Native American cultures however stuff like how roads and modern buildings look are more similar to that of roads and modern buildings in the United States. Most people in the Republic of Polish Michian do not have Polish accents, instead they have accents more similar to the Mid-Western American/central Canadian accent despite speaking Polish.
