I'd be more interested in a Milfgrad than in a Nilfgrad, anyway... ;)

O dunno if this was already discussed, but what's the status of Italy in this world?

But - that's Belgium... :D

Beria APOLOGIA? Where?

It seems everyone here know the list of Beria's underage victims... AFAIK he WAS a despicable sexual predator, abusing his immense power to lay his dirty hands on whatever young female he liked, but he wasn't the Milwaukee Monster or such, leaving buried bodies in his backyard. That smacks very...

If French research in Paris could have continued apace without the war and Nazi occupation intruding, they might have arrived first to building a crude reactor, possibily even a year or more before Fermi in Chicago.

Is there any base file you can then modify to make these maps?

You might have a point, though China's development is less superficial than it seems. Even the US have their depressed areas.

Higher. And poorer. China would be quite like Brazil, less the racial overtone. A country of contrasts, luxury cities, gated communities, slums and minorities struggling for survival in their threatened hill fastnesses. (I don't project TTL's Taiwan on the mass of the mainland: the ROC after...

"First see camel"

They didn't need much better weapons, they needed adequate training (not parade formalities, saluting and marching/singing Fascist hymns: tactical, shooting and live-fire training), good officers and especially good noncoms that we never had, being little more than illiterates.

It becomes ever closer to OTL reality as time passes.

Basically, last minute evacuation of most airfield = Luftwaffe punches in the void and has a more difficult life thenceon. A second Red Army echelon, reasonably armed and on alert, awaits for the Germans after the border battles = heavier losses in July and Vitebsk-Smolensk will be MUCH harder...

Not about Communism vs Anti.Communism, but central state vs autonomous regions or outright independence movement. Once Franco is dead the constitutional reform gets messy, vuiolce grows, and Tejero's coup is partly successful, adding an inner Castillian civil war in the civil war between...

One word: *Gibraltar (Calpe, actually). I had this idea of Priscus, Constatine's firstborn, not being killed but only exiled there. And from there...

Is there some comprehensive timeline anywhere?

The Trento accord is absolutely unrealistic. NO WAY Austria-Hungary would ever have acceded anything similar. Trento was a fundamental military position, a mountain-protected citadel surrounded by forts we never took OTL. At best one Italian-language university could have been established in...

Piedmontese isn't "Italian" OTL, but Gallo-Italic, closer to Provencal than to standard Italian. ITTL it just could be a bit closer, still Ican't see how our boot can come to prefer the speech of a peripheral area to that of the former Romanesque imperial core (furthermore when Florence has...

Someone here is searching for a kick. (Ideological bigotry alarm sounding).

Excellent. The Roman name you sound-changed could have been Firmianus.
