Well another obtion would be for the varyous attemps by both czech and polish leaders to create union of Czechs, Polles and Slovaks to suceed

actually there is a short story on the subject i read in one alternative history anthology. Hitler becomes a well known painter, Main Kampf is the name of his most famous painting and Himmler narates the whole story in his position as world expert on Hitlers work. Hitlers first great hate...

i know that avia 534 was also considered for a fighter...several were navalised...

czechoslovakia was the first country to sell weapons to izrael in reality i do not see problem with them selling weapons in this tl...if anything czechs always had very democratic approach to seling weapons to anybody as long they got cash for it...they were selling weapons to both south vietnam...

californian was not in visual distance.....that was a myth and it was diprooved. there had to be a third ship between titanic and californian.

not sure about muscovi but poles probably used western style arty....hussites vere big in to gunpowder they used gun called houfnice (howitzer derives from that) and tarasnice on top hand held hakovnice and pistala ...hakovice

the avias were actually me109....the only diference was the engine.
