Scenarios about 'referendums'
Referendums are direct votes by the general public on specific political questions or proposed laws, allowing citizens to approve or reject proposals outside of regular elections. These democratic exercises have shaped critical historical moments including independence movements, constitutional changes, and territorial disputes. In alternate history scenarios, referendums often serve as pivotal divergence points where different voting outcomes dramatically alter national boundaries, political systems, or international alignments.
