Assumptions behind the alliance-survival routes

Which of the three alliance-survival routes is most likely?

The comparison considers Harding's campaign promises, Canada's influence within imperial government, and changes to British shells and communications at Jutland.

The comparison draws on Canada's experience within the Committee for Imperial Defence and its greater economic weight relative to Australia and New Zealand. Harding's campaign promises provide the premise for the scenario of deeper American disengagement. The Jutland alternative depends on different British shell performance, Beatty's communications, or Admiralty signaling. These are distinct points of divergence, with different assumptions about political decisions and naval operations.
