We're back in 1846!
Driven out of Navoo, Illinois after their unsuccessful attempt to seize the area, Mormons begins migrating west into desert land. They eventually found Salt Lake City, Utah.
In Europe's last great peasant uprising, serfs in Poland and Austria massacre over 1,000 nobles. Although they are quickly slaughtered, the serfs win, and serfdom is abolished a few years later.
Komei begins his 21 year reign as Emperor of Japan. He begins as a merely symbolic ruler, until the US forces Japan to open to the West. As the Shogun (the real ruler of Japan) yields steadily more power to foreign governments, Komei begins seizing powers that the Emperors had relinquished centuries ago. He fumed helplessly as the shogunate signed unfair trade treaties with the West, and when he died, Japan was nearly bankrupt. But he started the trend that would eventually turn Japan into a major power.
Mexico invades Texas, which was now part of the US. The US responds quickly, winning major battles and then invading Mexico. The Mexican War will eventually cost Mexico half its territorial claims. California declares itself independent of Mexico, and several weeks later voluntarily joins the US.
The planet Neptune is discovered. Kerosene and the sewing machine are invented.
