    What if Jerusalem had assented to the 1538 Sanhedrin.

    I have to put in a request for some Krymchak representation. At this point, we're about a generation out from the annexation of Crimea, which was NOT a good time for the Krymchaks. And it's unlikely that they'd be joining the Chabad regiment. So we might see some of them wash ashore in the Holy...

    I don't know how you managed to put us through that entire sequence, calm us down, and STILL leave us on a cliffhanger!

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    I've been suggesting for years that what they should do is have a smaller German civil war. Basically, have a minigame where you sideline your rivals, but once you sideline two of them, the last one immediately revolts. You still have a major disruption to German power projection capabilities...

    Triple Calamity: What if the Three Most Important Men in the Executive Branch Died in One Night?

    Blursed Golden Circle where the Caribbean consists of several majority-minority states, invariably sending blacks and Latinos to Congress, then just run the power grid off of the spinning bodies of the Knights of the Golden Circle.

    Alt-History Aftermath Scenarios Implied by Media

    I always assumed that Age of Mythology took place in a sort of fantasy world that shared geography and culture with ours, but where interactions with the gods and monsters were part of everyday life. For example, in the Titans campaign when you first go to Greece, you're told that resources are...

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    Idea: Himmler is still Reichsfuhrer-SS, while Heydrich is the leader of RK Burgund, which is officially just another Reichskommissariat but is unofficially an SS fief. Heydrich will presumably support Himmler's bid to succeed Hitler, but if Himmler fails, Heydrich can offer Burgundy as a refuge...

    Most Likely Destination of Jewish Refugees and Fate of Judaism After Holocaust with No Israel?

    Assuming a stable situation didn't develop in Eastern Europe. The idea of an Ashkenazic SSR in former East Prussia has some merit, but I think there's also a reasonable scenario where the Soviets resettle the Holocaust survivors roughly where they came from. There would be a lot of tensions, but...

    What if Jerusalem had assented to the 1538 Sanhedrin.

    That could create an interesting dynamic down the road. Perhaps what happens is that a secular Republic of Judea - one that includes Acre and other areas considered outside the Land of Israel - gradually supersedes the civil authority of the Sanhedrin. Ironically, we might see such a Republic...

    Into the Cincoverse - The Cinco de Mayo EU Thread and Wikibox Repository

    Unless the Confederates are stupid enough to pull a Putin, at which point McConaughey turns into a grizzled war leader.

    What if Jerusalem had assented to the 1538 Sanhedrin.

    Lucien and Salma's story warmed my heart.

    Why do people assume the Confederacy will liberalize post-war?

    I'm doubtful that the Confederacy would be able to maintain slavery indefinitely. That said, the one thing I strongly disagree with is the idea that the United States would reabsorb the Confederacy. Within a couple of generations, most people would not remember the days when the Confederacy was...

    The Fire Never Dies, Part II: The Red Colossus

    Pretty much every socialist leader of the time made at least one trip. However, the ASU actually discourages foreign socialist leaders from moving permanently to the US for fear of creating a socialist brain drain. Of course, if they are facing active persecution, the ASU will be the default...
