  1. A Different 20th Century

    Tell me more about the Alliance party. Presumably it displaced the Republicans.
  2. Alternate American Flags

    Here is the flag of Lacustria, the largest country of the Union:

  8. Bigger US challenge

    The outright conquest of South America in response to European imperial plans (see Mexico).
  9. US seizes Gulf oil in 1973

    Won't the Soviets just conquer Iran outright as a response to our invasion of Arabia?
  10. Webster's New Alphabet

    I disagree. The spelling of High German changed sometime in the 1700s and 1800s, well after Gutenberg's printing press.
  11. Webster's New Alphabet

    What if the change in American spelling was far more extensive? For instance, the Great Vowel Shift would actually be recorded, so that words like right, beer, road, broad and so forth become raiht, bier, rood, brad, and so forþ... ABCDEFÐGHÞIJKLMN£OPQRSTUVWXYZÆ abcdefðghþijklmnſopqrstuvwxyz
  12. Electric Cars dominant

    I'll make it easier: We can have "diesel" powered heavy trucks and such but electric cars are dominant.
  13. AH CHallenge Prohibition Never Ends

    Failure of the repeal of the 18th Amendment? Hmmm, maybe if Hoover and the Fed handled the stock market crash better, loosened credit etc. he would have been re-elected and the US in a better mood. Depression makes you want to drink :D
  14. Alternate American Flags

    Hmmm. What was the motivation for the Americans to use the flag of the East India Company (the only flag with 13 stripes at the time)? And why five-pointed stars and not something that indicates British origin?
  15. Electric Cars dominant

    What would be the nearest POD for America to be dominated by electric, rather than internal combustion-powered, vehicles?
