I didn't go into any detail on what is happening in the United States with no Pearl Harbor, or in the Third Reich with the Dresner process and no Pearl Harbor. Like I said, rough draft. The war isn't over, though, I'll tell you that. I'll get back to finishing the rest a little later. Good...

“Throughout the world, everywhere we are all brothers. Why then do the winds and waves rage so turbulently?” – Emperor Meiji This is a very rough draft for a timeline I've been putting together for the last few days. You can see that a lot of it is missing, especially the implications on Nazi...

The United States of America Nazi Europe The Union of Socialist Soviet Republics The People's Republic of China No one else really had the option to become a superpower, unless you went back pretty far. Or, there could always be a nuclear cold war that operates on nationalist levels. Still, it...

I look forward to all of the religious organizations and cults being created over the issue that a flipping fireball just descended out of the sky and annihilated London. So much religious material... Every faith will have their version for why God destroyed London.

But, unlike the Russians, NATO still has a full nuclear arsenal. They detect nuclear missiles coming their way, and deduce it can only be China. But, they know that Russia must have deluded the Chinese, and they don't want Russia to escape the nuclear devestation treatment, so they nuke Russia...

https://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=32020&highlight=Tunguska+London I've always wanted to make a timeline on this idea. :)

How did the debate go between Nixon and Kruschev? That's very interesting.

Throughout the following, Russia, China, and NATO are interchangable, or you could add other participants (Nazi Europe) for three-sided cold war gone hot strategies. Russia nukes China. NATO knows that THEY didn't nuke China, so the perpetrator MUST have been Russia. In this case, NATO has a...

That definitely makes sense. The US will still have power over Japan, but I do think Japan could sustain itself long enough and with more industry to conquer more of China, thus attaining more mineral and oil/coal resources, and removing the need of the military requirement. In no way does this...

Communist Wizard, you

Dean, you disregard the non-economic aspect of international competition. Japan's economical failures led to a diplomatic failure which led to a military failure which led to territorial and political failure. In effect, Japan's lack of oil snowballed into a horrible tragedy, their loss in...

Ludendorff decided to

I'm currently using this resource to help me in understanding the German oil industry. http://www.airpower.maxwell.af.mil/airchronicles/aureview/1981/jul-aug/becker.htm Here's a short timeline I'm considering using in a project I'm going to post on Friday. 1932 – An American scientist, an...

What if the Germans had replaced their use of the Bergius Process of liquefacting coal into oil, gasoline, and synfuels with the Karrick Process? The Karrick Process was discovered in the 1920s by Lewis C. Karrick, an oil shale technologist at the US Bureau of Mines. In the 1930s, a pilot...

Very interesting. Are you planning on any changes with the Mormons, or are you going to leave that issue alone and OTL? Tell you what, the Depression of 1837 was very important in the Mormon movement. The LDS had just created the Kirtland Safety Society in late 1836, a 'pseudo-bank' just for...

Hey Max, I just read your complete timeline from beginning to end on the showcase forum, don't know why I haven't before, and it was fascinating! Thank you for the great read, though I would hope that some day you could write a follow-up to it, so we can see what life is like in 2007. It was...

Guiseppe Zangara gets his wish, and is able to deliver a fatal bullet to FDR's neck. This has probably been brought up before. What do you think might happen? I know that, upon his death, John Nance Garner would become president. I'm not sure what kind of presidency he would lead, or the...

You both are making great points, though I tend to lean towards Xen's arguments. We all know that the German invasion of Britain is totally implausible, and I agree that there is no where on this planet that's completely invulnerable. However, I think that the Soviets would have taken more...

Awesome. Communism and socialism is awesome. Expand the Red Power! The Whites did have many disadvantages... they were very disjointed and were fighting from the periphery against the centralized Red Power, allowing the Reds an easier time of mobilizing pinpointed attacks. With a White...

Continues to be a very interesting, unique, promising timeline, my friend! The implications of a different war in Europe are especially fascinating. The Central Powers probability of claiming victory are especially high. Remember Italy and Romania. They could join either side, depending on the...
