Monitor vs Warrior

Description

I like to think about history and alternative history also. This is a vision of different historical line. British empire is intervening in American civil war on the side of Confederation. The first ironclads in the world fight against each other. The biggest ships in the world at time British HMS Warrior and Black Prince against smaller heavy armored American Monitors. I've read many articles about this fictional battle, still its not clear which ship can win.

What I have always found interesting is the fact how other countries would just stand by and not take full advantage of Frances and England's foolish attempt at playing county makers. Considering the Russian Fleet was in American waters near DC at this point in time. Russia also had troops in Alaska that could have easily marched on western Canada. Bismarck's Prussia would have marched on France and all hell would have let loose in Europe and in other parts of the world. WWI would have started 50 years early and there would have been only losers! I deal in all facts and possibilities not just with only the entrance of only the England and France. So things are not as easy and simple as some may think!
