I got the idea for a novel from a Chambers post, and now I need your help to make it into an actual story.

First off, I don't know if I'm breaking any rules by posting this. It's just that it is clear that the community here is brimming with ideas that I could use to finish off the novel. For the most part, I have a solid outline of what will happen in the story, but there are a few things that I would really love to get feedback on.<br><br><br>I am working on a novel based off of the "The USA Garrison" concept. The tl;dr here is that in an alternate universe, the US took over the governance of Germany and Japan in 1945 and they stayed that way. The story is set in the 1980s and involves a plot to overthrow the US government.<br><br>I have done a lot of research, but there are still some questions that I have that I would love to get your help on. Please see my first comment for my questions.<br><br><br>Thank you for your time, and I appreciate any feedback you have to offer!<br><br><br><br>Edit: Wow, this was a surprise. I hope I didn't just create a bunch of echo chambers. Please continue the conversation you are having in the comments. I will probably respond to everyone once I get home from work.
