Fallout: New Vegas - Points of Divergence

I. Intro

What if Ceasar's Legion were sane? What if they weren't complete monsters, or evil to the point of stupidity? What if they weren't built to fall apart once Caesar died? What if they, while still brutal and cruel, brought actual order and organization to their lands? Would things still turn out to be the same?

Other questions are: What if the Kings were more fleshed out? What if the Fiends and Vipers showed the depths glimpsed in the original world? What if Elijah maintained control of the Brotherhood? What if the NCR's sinister reputation wasn't based on exaggerations, rumors, and outright lies? What if the fate of the Mojave relied not on one person, but multiple pariticpants?

Why that last question? Because the Courier is dead...

-------

Basically, the points of divergence, aka the things that make Caesar's Legion different, are first, Ceasar finding different books about Ancient Rome during his time as Edward Sallow, and second, Caesar not having a brain tumor. This results in a Legion that, while led and controlled with an iron fist, with harsh punishments for disobedience, is more sensible, more willing to negotiate, and more willing to build, in general. A Legion of order and organization, based not on slavery, but on the practicalities of landed power focused by a strong man at the centre of it all. The New Roman Empire, the Nova Roma Imperii, risen again and looking towards what was good in the past to apply it to the future.

Your jobs, in this open world game, are to fight, explore, and interact; you can take bounties, sell food and purified water, take up arms in favor of a faction, and affect the larger story and world in your own way. What you would not be permitted to do, however, is cut yourself off from the world; no man or woman is an island, especially in the Mojave Wasteland.

II. New and Changed (Main) Factions







III. Rules

Im kind of interested. Do the characters have to be part of one of the major factions? Also how much of the brotherhood is part of the NCR? Is it the whole Brotherhood of Steel or is just a faction of them?

@BladeSS4Nowhere in the OP does it state that the Brotherhood is part of the NCR. The opening post mentions that Elder Elijah still controls the Mojave chapter of the Brotherhood, but not anything about them being part of the NCR.
