For those who may not know, I'm an alternate history fan
It's been a good cope of mine for many years now, it's a great form of escapism.
One which is very underrated imo, is TL-191: It is set in a world where during the US civil war, one fucking random messenger doesn't lose Special Order 191:

This enables for the CSA to win a few key battles, which then prompts for the UK and France(dependent on Confederate trade) to recognize the CSA and negotiate peace between the two. This leads to many ripples, the first of which being the French intervention in Mexico succeeds, leading to it becoming a French puppet. When it sells its northern territories to the CSA, it ignites another war, which he South wins again(with British and French support).
You can probably get the idea where this is going. North America is a much more violent and openly hostile place, with a huge layer of underlying tension between the "Yankees" and "Rebels"
The current book I'm reading in this, is called American Front and set right before WWI. The US, bitter over two loses and resentful towards British aid to the CSA, sides with the Central Powers. So basically, it's Battlefield I but in North America.
I also like how the author includes many real figures: For example, George Custer is leading the US 1st Army invasion of Kentucky since the US fought the Canadians instead of Natives in this world.
