Adi will probably not provoke the west by attacking Poland if Germany cannot get its "back free" long enough to sweep away the french. The question is what happens if the USSR attacks Poland at that point, or if it even might launch a preemptive strike against Germany without straining...

Forget a puppet Czar. Though that regime ended some two and a half decades earlier there is no way the Russians would've forgotten enough of the hardships they were put through to embrace its return. Also forget rallying the Russians against Stalin. For this to happen, Nazi ideology must be...

Those infidel imperialists claim their "capitalism" is superior to our "uncivilized" system. I've seen the coal mines, the potteries, the textile industry. Their workers not only start with hard physical labor before age ten, they're also kept on the edge of starving, probably to prevent...

TNT would not be useful before petrochemistry could supply adequate quantities of toluene. The Malthusian "collapse" theories would only work on a secular and educated population willing to give up parenthood, and that barely existed anywhere before WW2. Rockets are a favorite WI of mine...

Keep the 1953-coup either from happening or from succeeding. If the country had kept moving towards a stable democracy, perhaps secular forces could become prevalent as well. EDIT: Too late he sees where the thread is posted. Damnit!

Scanian peasants got angry during the 1600s and brought first Sweden, then Denmark-Norway to their knees, forming the Scandinavian Republic.

Would be interesting to see that gang***g Russia always seems to expect from her neighbors actually happen. Perhaps if the Poles/western powers manages to set up an independent Ukraine and mess up central Russia until the SU breaks apart, otherwise Russia is simply too damn big, unless we're...

Basically, in my view, you'd need a comparatively large black-African middle class to be able to make an African country a superpower, and creating that would take generations, such cultures tend to show quite a bit of inertia. Having a dominant white minority could work, on the premise that...

Concerning the dark ages.... The church, along with worldly leaders both caused the slow down of technological development, even erosion of knowledge, and were at the same time the only ones who maintained some of that knowledge. Feudal lords with their "birthright" prevented the growth of...

It is slightly OT, but what would happen in the middle east and/or in the Caucasus? Could axis Turkey provide Germany with oil?

Perhaps a religious cult where the initiates believe that by eating human flesh one gain "powers" in the afterlife?

IMO the only plausible way to achieve a "white" nation in south Africa would be to ethnically cleanse the blacks away from certain areas while simultaneously forcing the whites in. The first part would be relatively easy. The second...

1. Mensjeviks (social democrats) win the struggle for power and forms an unstable democracy. The conditions for workers and peasants are somewhat improved, but many of the injustices remain. Overall, it is a bourgeois revolution with little concern to the rural poor. 2. Many Jews quickly...

Well, as an agnostic in regards to those theories, two reasons makes it quite difficult to ascertain that observed differences in IQ between racial groups is due to genetics. 1. Culture strongly affects intelligence. A society tend to produce more of what it endorses. A bad psychosocial...

Pah, messing up our economy? What good is that? I got myself a wine yard six months after arriving from Sweden, and I ain't sharing it with a bunch of primitives who've never achieved anything by their own except that pile of stone, and even then it was engineered by others (jews). My guns...
