What if we substituted Traveller technology for Space 1889 physics, but kept the 1889 political situation, this setting would be tech level 8, maybe this is because a Time Traveler from the future arrived in a starship from the OTU? According to some source material on Venus, the CSA exists, so one explanation would be that a Southern sympathizer from the Solomani Confederation arrived during the Civil War to help the Confederacy win, much like Harry Turtledove's Guns of the South, over the next 25 years the tech level was advanced to TL 8, what do you think?
Whoever did this wanted to take over the CSA, but he also had a certain fondness for the Germans, unfortunately for the Time Traveller, General Robert E. Lee was highly suspicious of this visitor from the future, he was a bit of a neo nazi and was exceptionally cruel to his slaves, beating them and starving them to death, after the CSA tried to arrest him for trying to overthrow the government, he fled to the German Empire and met with similar results, with Otto Von Bismark ordering his execution.
