  1. Yeltsin tries to sell Kaliningrad Oblast to Germany in 1995.

    I think that an independant Kaliningrad/Пруссия is more likely then a returned Prussia to Germany, especially as Germany had officially renounced to any territorial claim over the Oder and I think that the ethnically russian population might like to have a say about their future. EDIT : I think...
  2. Sucesors to Lenin sans Stalin or Trotsky?

    Difficult, maybe Zinoviev or Kamenev ? They seemed to be the two other influencial peoples of the bolsheviks, with Zinoviev being part of the "Triumvirate" with Stalin and Trotsky. Obviously, depending when Stalin and Trostky dies, it could have deep riples within the soviet circles.
  3. Pop-culture in TL-191

    Great stuff @S. Marlowski ! Just one little thing that would make it better: in French, Strike Witches would be better translated as "Sorcière de frappe" or "Sorcière d'assault". Because "Frapper les sorcières" pretty much mean "Hit the witches" XD
  4. Van Doos et d'autres Canadiens to FIC, April 1940

    On a grimmer hand, it might exacerbate the anti-japanese sentiments in Canada, which were pretty dark OTL
  5. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    Interesting, is this lack of "purpose" also OTL affected the ISS or is it specific to ITTL SSE ? Is it because it's a NASA, CSA, ESA, JAXA club instead of a true international station ? Anyway, great update and thread !
  6. V a p o r v e r s e - Or, a Vaporwave inspired Timeline.

    I really wonder how the (reformed) soviet reacted to the fall of Yugoslavia. OTL it was a real sore point between Russia and NATO.
  7. Pop-culture in TL-191

    If we assume that the massive parallelism in TL-191 mean that Disney is still making movies, then it would have done many propaganda movies for the war, after that, I dont know... Maybe ole tales like OTL ?
  8. Universal Conscription in a major Country

    For one, it's a major economic burden, not only do you basically pay for all the basic need and for the sold of your conscript for a minimum of one year, training generally excluded, but you delay higher education graduate and job entry. For two, unless you keep them for the longer period, the...

    Turning swords into plowshares The development of the Canadian civilian rocket launchers is intimately connected to the weaponry it built during the cold war. It all started with the cancellation of the Avro Arrow, one of the side development for the heavy interceptor was the Velvet Glove...
  11. Pop-culture in TL-191

    I think that due to the fact that Featherston was more a "local" problem , separated from the European theater, mean that he might be less well known world-wide.

    @LostCosmonaut Great design and story ! I was just wondering: did the PRC received 190 Mig-7 in total or just for the year 1951 ?

    FEMAP-1: The Fusil Électro-Magnétique Accélérateur de Plasma (Electro-Magnetic Plasma Accelerator Rifle) was the perfect reflection of an old gunsmith adage: "The French copy nobody and nobody copy the French". While the majority of the human powers were embracing electromagnetism to sling...

    In 1930, 4 years after the AdA (Armée de l'Air, Air army/french air force) accepted the Lioré & Olivier LeO 20 as France main night bomber, a larger variant built around the LeO20 base including the first Push-pull engine, which was 2 Gnôme-Rhone 7K put opposite with an inverted rotation.

  19. Design challenge: a panic fighter for 1935

    A copy of the PLZ.50 Jastrząb powered by a Pratt and Whitney R-1830-17 Twin Wasp and armed with 2 20mm cannon and 2 303. machine-guns. This should give us the edge over most our contemporaries for a while and the mix armaments should be polyvalent.
