Howard Scott becomes president instead of FDR, and all branches of government become dominated by technocrats. Allowing them to reform the United States into the North American Technate. How do their reforms to the United States impact history? The Technocrates replace America's free-market economy with a centrally planned economy guided by academics and intellectuals. Political parties are banned, and elections are cancelled. In favor of creating a government made up of a central committee of scientists and engineers, who have absolute power. This new America enforces state-atheism, and becomes allies with the Soviet Union.
