  1. WI:WWI Stalemate continues

    Would it be possible to have the flu pandemic hit earlier? Each side calls a peace to deal with their own outbreak problems, and the USA never coming over for fear of the men catching it and bringing the European version of the flu back to the States?
  2. American Expansion without Slavery

    Could this possibly give even more of a push for the Tropic of Cancer border with a defeated Mexico, since there wouldn't be as much fear over just giving the land over to slave-owning statehood?
  3. What if all countries had to use Nordic Cross style flags?

    Yeah, that was the dilemma I had as well. The choice was to have a close representation that is too busy-looking, or have a simpler design that doesn't look like the original in the slightest. The second one was my favorite as well, and I thought of it after I made the first one. I figure I...
  4. AHC/WI: Fourth Abrahamic Religion

    Ah, gotcha. I'm not trying to be a prick, I apologize. :o The Baha'i believe in a joining of all religions, not just Abrahamic beliefs. Would that even qualify? I'd love to see a Baha'i wank, but I don't think this is what you are looking for as well. Hmmm...
  5. AHC/WI: Fourth Abrahamic Religion

    You are posting in before 1900 AH. Perhaps you are thinking of the future history board? And as far as a new major religion, it would take the fall of civilization to get that many manipulable people to follow a new religion. Other than fringes, I just don't see it happening in today's world any...
  6. AHC/WI: Fourth Abrahamic Religion

    I would have to say that Mormonism qualifies as the fourth Abrahamic religion. Look at their beliefs and organizational patterns. They are more than just a schism of Protestantism. Plus if Mitt Romney wins the USA presidency, it would lend more legitimacy to the faith.
  7. foreign relations of Brazil next to a British Argentina

    But that was kinda my point. If the leaders in Brazil could look long-term and see the potential of an ally in the same boat as them (i.e. former Atlantic-coast colonies that are also against the British), I would think that they would try to foster the alliance/friendship. In this way, the two...
  8. What if all countries had to use Nordic Cross style flags?

    Bump for this wonderful thread! :D So I was looking for the USA flag, and the one that was posted was waaaay too busy for my tastes. So here's a couple of ideas that I had. The 50 stars are from the Presidential Seal if anyone was wondering. If you have any ideas on how I could make it better...
  9. Latest possible PoD resulting in no European Superpower Status?

    How about a later mutation of the bubonic plague that decimates more people?
  10. foreign relations of Brazil next to a British Argentina

    Two thoughts occurred to me: 1. Instead of French alliance with the potential overshadowing that could bring, what about Brazil befriending the USA? I know they aren't that great of a power at this point, but Brazil could possibly see the potential in aligning with the other sizeable...
  11. AHC: Create a more stable a peacful modern Africa

    Nice map! However, would the Great Kongo League have really been that large? I would've figured that the Khoisan people would have the south, instead of being merely a protectorate?
  12. AHC: Create a more stable a peacful modern Africa

    This. The result could've played out much like how South America did. Violence still happened, but not as much as in OTL. Also, would different colonial boundaries drawn based on regional ethnicities have lessened the problems once the continent gained its independence? I would think so, but...
  13. How many people can live in Alaska?

    also: I'm going to guess that OP is talking about modern tech times for this thread. I see Alaska using its oil wealth to develop its considerable geothermal resources for heating its cities and building massive greenhouses for crops. I know that sounds counterproductive to not just use the oil...
  14. WI: America becomes a Colonial Empire

    A more tolerant America would probably have less overseas territory. Wasn't the main reason for not conquering all of Mexico because of 'too many brown-skins'? Without this impediment, I would think the USA would've had its hands too full with that to even think about anything overseas.
  15. Characteristics of certain regions present in all alternate timelines

    Does the Native Americans dying from post-discovery disease count?
  16. So If America Doesn't Expand West...

    All of it really depends on where the border is, who owns the other part, and if they are friend or foe? Any ideas?
  17. WI: America becomes a Colonial Empire

    Yeah, they would both require ASB interference, which was one reason I didn't go on further with the thoughts. :) @kooluk: This thread is based off of the USA being the whole lower 48, and as such my ideas were based off of that. I'm surprised that nobody exclaimed how dumb my idea was in...
  18. WI: America becomes a Colonial Empire

    Napoleon wouldn't sell, limiting the USA to the Mississippi, or arming of natives by the British (or other power), limiting the USA to east of the Appalachians? Interesting scenarios, both of them. However for this thread, lets say that the USA was able to hold on to Cuba, Hispaniola, and...
  19. AHC: Largest possible exodus of a group of people

    And Velasco already mentioned Moses. :)
  20. Native Americans discover Europe

    Please do tell? I'm interested to know.
