There are a lot of Presidents in fiction. So who's in the White House in a world where all of fiction is true? A short description of all the presidents of the United States, from it's birth to it's death.

26. Charles Swann

1897-1901 Charles Swann (Republican)

Swann was mainly notable for presiding over a time of turmoil and war. Early on in his presidency,Swann would help to end the short War of 1897, between Britain, France and Russia. Influenced by the yellow journalism of Charles Foster Kane, Swann started the Spanish-American War, in which America was fully established as a great power, gaining direct control over Puerto Rico, the Philippines and the Marianas Islands and turning Cuba into a puppet. During the war, a black nationalist uprising occurred in Texas, which was brutally suppressed. Following the Mollusc invasion of Britain in 1898, Swann sponsored an international counterattack on Mars, led by Thomas Edison. However, the expedition failed when they were grokked by another group of aliens living on Mars. Swann would face another invasion in 1899, as China launched a global uprising against western imperialism. With the aid of Chinese expatriates, the Chinese were briefly able to seize control of California and Oregon, only to be quickly repelled thanks to their long supply lines. A further black uprising in this year was also defeated. A staunchly pro-business president, Swann's re-election resulted in riots by socialists and anarchists. He was assassinated by a deranged Polish immigrant a year later.
