  1. Question - Lack of US presence is western Pacific

    I am doing some research and would appreciate some help. What would be necessary to happen prior to or during the Spanish-US war that ended with a similar result for US not to gain any permanent presence in the western Pacific? Cheers and thank you in advance :)

  2. Frankish British March

    Reading a paper on Frankish influence in southern Britain got me thinking what would be the influence of the development of the Isle had the Franks established a march in the south of it and held to it for a century or two and what possible influence that could have on later events such as the...

  3. The Axade

    The Introduction Come forth and listen to the tales of woe when in the depths of G.rwasiah the gates of Jahannam were flung open. It was a time of death and doom when men became beasts and shayatin walked the earth clad in flesh of mortals. Al-Dhahabi, Wars for the Mound...

  4. Northern Ireland WI

    I have been watching a documentary on the troubles last night and could not help but wander if ex-Yugoslavia style madness was possible in the late '60 and '70 with a PoD following the founding of UVF in 1966. Could the things escalate into a full scale insurgency/civil war with religious...

  5. AHC: Turkic Late Medieval Resurgent Mesopotamia

    As I am sick at home I had some time to catch up with a few things that I wanted to read for several years but failed to find time. So I read about Mesopotamia between the sack of the Bagdad by the Mongols and the Ottoman conquest of the region and a posibility came to me. How would be...

  6. Results of an early death of Peter I of Russia

    The search engine just gives me a blank page so I am starting a new topic. After reading some articles about modernisation of Russia during the reign of Peter I (the Great) I could not but wonder what would be the effects of Russia and Europe as a whole if Peter never becomes the Tzar and the...

  7. WI: Failed invasion of Norway

    Today at work I was reading some WWII related material and it got me wondering how the WW II would have developed had the BHF ships stationed on Shetland Islands reacted more promptly and intercepted German Assault Groups I and II going for Trondheim and Narvik. So as a result Germans manage to...

  8. AHC: More populous Spain and France

    Your challenge if you choose to accept it is to find a way to have France and Spain with the same population density in 2012 as Italy with a PoD in the decade following the Congress of Vienna in 1815.

  9. AHC: Rotary Cannons as main armament for MBT-s

    I was watching a documentary on A10 Thunderbolt and that amazing cannon of it's so I started wondering what if such weapons were used on Tanks. Just to help you visualise http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m340116a_99120105045_IGPunisher_873x627.jpg (I know, I know but...

  10. WI: 2nd 100 years war

    I was reading about the 16th century French monarchs and an idea came to me. What if Francis II survived his ear infection and had son(s) with Mary Stuart. Then during the "Rising of the North" the French king decides to support his wifes claim to the throne of England in addition to supporting...

  11. Plausibility check

    I am working on making a board for a Diplomacy like game. Everyting is idea shaping stage so I would like to ask for some opinions. The PoD is the Ottoman Empire conquering all of kingdoms of Croatia and Slavonia in the first 1/3 of the 16th century rather than focusing on the core of the...

  12. 13 Colonies as a World Power

    Though it is a pretty broad question I wanted to ask the board a question that has been bothering me for the past few day. Is it possible to have 13 Colonies in their prerebellion borders become a World Power by 1914? How could that happen that they remain confined in those borders and what...

  13. Discussion: Carpathian Realm

    Before I undertake the project of writing a timeline that I think no one has tried to do, Croatia in the Carpathians I would like to discuss the subject and hear the opinions other members of this site have on the posible changes to the world. In the period between 7th-11th century Croats(Croat...

  14. Demographics of East Germany

    After reading an article on the Berlin Wall I had an idea so I am looking for some answers. By the time of the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961 a fifth of its population had emirgrated. How likely is that the Soviets allow the emigration to continue and merely replace population loss my...

  15. Territory Acquisition in late Medieval times

    I am considering to do a Croatia-screw timeline with a PoD during the civil war around the year 1000. The result would leave Croatia reduced to her mountinuous regions that are of little to no value to anyone but the people living there. The PoD would result with the end of the royal line and...

  16. Research for a TL - Breakup of Yugoslavia in 1928/9

    Since I have joind this forum I have read several timelines that in one way or another discussed Yugoslavia but I have seen only three times (I think) a suggestion of it breaking apart in the interwar period. The PoD for the timeline I am contemplating on is the "Assasination in the National...

  17. Norman Kingdom of Croatia - discussion

    I have pondered for some time on various PoDs for early Croatian history and always chose an internal PoD. Then last night as I was reading some stuff for my masters paper a thought occured. King Petar Krešimir IV was the king that was captured by Normans in 1074 somewhere between Nin and Rab...

  18. Dynamite in 1857

    After reading some stuff about battles during the ACW and war for the unification of Italy and Germany I started to wonder how would they be affected by an earlier discovery of dynamite. Though at first I thought it would favour the agressors I realised Dynamite sticks would be far better...

  19. Falcons of Monkodonja

    Inspired by steven24gordon's "A World Without Martel" I have decided to write down a timeline about a different arrival of the Croats and different history. Though this alternate Croatia will be the main point of my focus I will try and cover other events that might have occured due to...

  20. Franks/HRE on the eastern Adriatic - disscussion

    Today over a cup of tea couple of collegues and I had a discussion on the impact of Croatia staying part of Middle Francia and later becoming part of the Eastern Francia and HRE rather than becoming independent in the last quarter of the 9th century. I am considering making a timeline about...
