Is there any good reading on why he's so terrible? I understand the no surrenders and it was his insistence that the emperor not be charged for war crimes and everything, but besides that I'm a little left in the dark.

I'm wondering how our society would have developed along the lines of a centralized internet.

http://motherboard.vice.com/2012/1/17/at-t-could-have-bought-the-internet-in-1971 So in 1971, AT&T was given the opportunity to purchase ARPANet from the US government. What would have happened if AT&T instead of refusing the offer, took it?

Wish I could find a better source, but Wikipedia is what I have at hand at the moment; Spinola's wiki page is at odds with what you're posting. Says that he wrote the book in 1974. Not only that, he published the book after he was removed from his post. The MFA also started out as more of a...

By that definition of the Army losing control of it's own soldiers, I'm pretty sure it started out as a mutiny with the lower ranking officers and turned into a coup after Caetano refused to surrender/hand over power to anyone but Spinola...

Why would Kennedy get impeached by the house? Some of the premises don't seem to make sense.

I believe he originally did support/admire the Nazis to an extent at first when they were rising in power (I mean who wasn't admiring them when they first started out; they were giving their citizens jobs and visibly looked like they were doing more for their people then any other government...

He may be not as anti-semetic. If I recall correctly, one of the reasons he believed in the stab in the back so much was when he was in the hospital and apparently 3 sailors (one or two of whom were a Jewish I think, can't remember how many) came into the hospital proclaiming that the...

You know, I'd always figure that there'd be a breakaway Manchuria and that Korea would be a little bit more bigger, what with the large Korean diaspora in parts of southeast Manchuria. I thought that the civil war ittl was a bit messier and by then Korea and possibly Manchuria was established.

My bad, dunno where I got my source from. Think it was from something I off heard about Guderian not wanting Panthers and Tigers, saying that masses of Pz IIIs and Pz IVs would have been cheaper/better than the small numbers of Panthers and Tigers. Could I get the source for the Pz IV though?

The ME262 only had an engine life of about 10-25 hours. The flying Wing concept was decades ahead of it's time, the US wasn't even able to successfully create one until the late 80s early 90s. Reinhard Heydrich you need him surviving, not simply put in charge. Tiger tanks cost too much...

Fewer Soviet troops on the front due to the needs of the workforce to work in the fields and in the factories. Less tanks and planes as more of the industrial output goes towards trucks and other logistical vehicles. Poor communication/logistics due to lack of American Jeeps and radios. Less...

Hitler gets more "proof" of Aryan superiority.

Goering would most likely have taken over as the second fuhrer. This would be pretty interesting since Goering was a Wilhelmine Imperialist. From what I know, Goering wasn't too fond of the idea of invading Poland out of fear of starting a world war, he wanted to use diplomacy first. We might...
