Timelines you want to see done?

[Ran Exilis]

Just a note Maverick, but the Ottoman Empire already existed when Timur Lenk came along,
so Timur Lenks preventing the Ottomans is not quite possible...

But aside from that, you have some interesting points!

[Communist Wizard]

A full, complete French HRE TL (with Germany united).

[rick007]

A Command and Conquer timeline starting with Red Alert.

[Bmao]

What about a timeline that sees Latin America merging into a single nation? That would really be a thorn in the US' side.

[Dan1988]

Not necessarily, depending on the outcome.

I think that ATL would be plausible to say the least, I don't know the reason why China would suddenly want to colonize the world just because they discovered another backwater in their POV, only this time it's far away and less sophisticated than the barbarians outside their borders.

A TL where Nazi Germany survives into the modern age, without annexing almost everything that isn't 'Super Italy' or the Japanese Co- Prosperity Sphere... In my Opinion, Hitler himself, let alone others, did not believe Germany's place to be complete master of the World... For instance, he talked of 'Germany ruling Europe, and Britain the World outside'.
What would be interesting to see would be a situation where the Uk and France did not declare war following the invasion of Poland, Hitler invades and conquers much of the Western USSR and then is asassinated or something (it does not really matter, as long as he is out of the way). Then, the extended Germany continues, at peace. what would such a massive European country become?
On a similar note (and yes I am ranting a little now), might I infer as to where another quite common WW2 idea, that of the USA allying with the Nazis, actually came from? It is totally inconceivable that Germany would willingly ally, and for decades at that, with a nation which Hitler saw as degenerate and traitorous...

After all that, I'm going to be a little hypocritical and suggest a support for what I suppose is a slightly twisted version of a very common TL...
Simply, Edward Grey never becomes British foreign minister (it was his indecisiveness which in large part led to WW1- suggesting that the Uk would remain neutral in a war etc.) and the Uk stays utterly neutral (and possibly even actively pro- German). The move pays off, and Britain takes much of the industrial growth that would have gone America's way in the War. As something of a Germanophile, I have visions of a pretty utopian Europe emerging under the German lead, with Britain returning to the business of Empire;- perhaps even sort of amalgamating with India, and becoming almost more of an Asian power...

I'm actually doing a timeline like that, only with some changes -

See if you can guess the pun in the name.

Venetian Italy and stronger Holland.

More Tony Jones timelines sound good.

Rock on Tony.

Now that is an interesting idea...

You could easily get four nations I would think :-

an uber-Mexico which is basically Iturbide's empire as this included the Central American provinces

Gran Colombia including Venezuela and Ecuador, as well as Colombia and its Panama province. Again this is a historical state

San Martin IIRC wanted to combine Peru and Bolivia into one state. You could see this later swallowing up Chile, which would have been a much smaller Chile at that time than we usually think of, not including its Northern provinces (which it stole after the War of the Pacific from Peru and Bolivia) and not including Araucania (which is probably spelt wrong).

Then you could see a more successful Paraguay nibble away at Argentina, which again does not include Patagonia as this with Araucania remained until the 1860s the homeland of the Mapuche. Alternatively, you could have the Argentine Confederation swallow up Paraguay

I seem to recall reading that San Martin wanted a monarchical form of government for his combined state. If he got this and if it was stable, which is of course a pre-requisite for any of this, then it may get ideas above its station - why should Gran Colombia and the Argentine Confederation remain independent from the monarchy ?

IIRC the Kings of the Ashanti had a cohort of Amazon warriors (its just possible it was the Dahomey, but one of those 19th century African nations)

Scythians, since I believe the original Greek legends placed them there. Somewhere around the top of the Black Sea area, I believe most of the expansionist Emperors sent contingents into this area, though it never formally became Roman territory.

There's a good YA fiction book out just very recently on the subject of women as the first horse riders in dim antiquity. It might be helpful as having the latest research on the subject. It might also be helpful if I could remember the author or title but it will be issued this summer and is YA on this subject. I will post the title if I can find or remember.

Given your standard legion we'd have standard cavalry vs infantry (the Amazons were cavalry in the original legends, I think)

Muammar Quadaffi uses an Amazon bodyguard.

It was Dahomey.

I've been thinking of a bit of a Dutchwank in honour of my visit there but...I have too many ideas none of which ever come to fruition and other things to do away from here.

I thank you!

There is a new one in the works, but still quite a way to go on it as yet. 100000 words and counting...

Look forward to it.

Reading your timelines was one of the reasons I became so interested in alhtists in the firstplace. So I thank you.

I esspecially liked Monarchy World (mmm, super-China, drool) and Clive-less World (nice to see France having a break for a change).
