The Mohammedan on Horseback

An antiwar protest in France goes horribly wrong when soldiers fire on the protesters, leading to Marxist Socialist revolts and a susequent revolution in 1919, leading to a bloodier end in the Great War as the Germans intervene. (No British involvement in the war ITTL.)

Not another one!

The USAF Man-in-space-soonest program puts a manned X-15 on a one-orbit flight in December of 1960 up. As JFK is inaugurated, the US holds the lead in manned spaceflight.

God Does Not Play Dice


Salah Jadid has Hafez al-Assad assassinated in 1969. Syrian intervention during Black September is more strongly committed to, leading to the fall of the last Hashemite monarchy and the creation of the Arab Palestinian Republic of Jordan. This creates major butterflies for the Israeli-Arab Conflict.

Give 'Em Hell

Kennedy is assassinated by Cuban exiles in 1962. Succeeding him is Vice President George Smathers, a Southern Democrat. Smathers, a pretty boy of the same political generation as JFK but more conservative, presides over a 60's where the Vietnam war goes to extremes, China and Russia go to the brink, and the domestic and foreign scene and the 1960's is even more chaotic and extreme than the OTL.

A TL where Alois Schicklgruber migrated to France and his son Adolf joined the French Foreign Legion, fighting against Germany and AH in WWI.

EDIT: Goddamnit, Ninja'd, and with the same title!

To answer Emperor Norton, If We Go Home, The Communists Win!

Hey! *Points above his post*.

And Truman was allowed a third term. It's just that no one who was not already president at the time could run for a third term. Truman could run till he was blue in the face.

A Southern-Fried World



A police crackdown on the Rodney King riots goes extremely badly, with thousands killed and martial law eventually declared. This leads to the rise of the New Black Panthers and the Uhuru Movement, who quickly become linked with the less racist members of the militia movement.

The Last Stand of Sgt. Alphonse Schicklgruber

Ernesto Guevara is sent to the seminary as a child, where he becomes a priest, eventually becoming the Archbishop of Guatemala City and a leading proponent of liberation theology.

A Band of Two Brothers



After the Lord's Resistance Army overthrows Museveni's government in Uganda and establishes the theocratic Biblical Judgeship of Uganda, the United States prepares for an intervention. Meanwhile, Uganda's neighbours must absorb hundreds of thousands of refugees pouring out of the country and telling of the horrors of Joseph Kony's utopia.

OOC: Ya know, I think a good idea for a thread would have been to put up a place where people could submit timeline synopsis' for timelines they couldn't think of a name for. I know I'm suffering from that severely right now.

C: A TL where Sun Yat-sen is murdered in London in 1896 by Qing officials means no Revolution. This coupled with reforms made by the Zaitian emperor turn China into a regional power and a constitutional monarchy.

A New Mandate From Heaven




After a defeat in the War of 1812, the United States breaks apart as New England and New York state splinter off forming the Commonwealth of New England and New York. This will strengthen slavery in the South and increase competition for the West, strengthening the hand of the natives, who can now play the two American states off of one another.

Ameri-FAILED.

Instead, the Russian revolution was made by Russian far-rightists and stormed the Einter Palace. They later took over the country and regained most of the Tsarist territory minus Poland by 1940.

The Bear Turns Right



When Pierre Trudeau is assassinated by Quebecois separatists, Allan MacEachen becomes acting Prime Minister and declares that the "gloves are coming off". The War Measures act is fully implemented and Quebec falls under martial law. The United States is asked for assistance, which they provide fully, in the form of commandos who track and kill FLQ fighters, as well as any extreme Quebec seperatists.

Planet Earth is found to be in the Star Wars Galaxy and Imperial Troops decide to invade the world by the time of WWI.
