Disenfranchise? Highly doubtful. Considering the Prime Minister is married to a native Dominican woman, who I can confirm here is of African-Dominican heritage, as most people in Dominica are, it looks safe to say they are not looking to create a mini South Africa. What they are almost...

There are a few others who will be showing up later, and Barkashov will also be making an appearance before long as well. I don't want to say to much since I don't want to give much away though.

OK, I know that at times this timeline has something of a Nostradamus vibe to it in terms of predicting the future but even this one sort of freaked me out. Six days after I wrote that Dominica was engulfed in anti-government protests in Part One (due to the election of Russian supporters of...

so who ends up drafting Brady?

With that being said, I could see Webber, Rose and Howard being part of a championship team with maybe one or two more pieces. Maybe if the Bulls double down on the Michigan thing and draft Robert Traylor only to trade him to Milwaukee for Dirk like Dallas did in 1998.

I will say that if by Fab Five you mean the Michigan Fab Five I don't know if they could form the nucleus of a NBA dynasty. Chris Webber was the only super star of the group at first and although Jalen Rose emerged as a star as well he had a steep learning curve and it wasn't until 1999-2000...

Well I don't want to say too much about the next couple of updates, but this does set up a scenario that also could discredit Lebed, and as a former general he may act forcefully if he thinks inaction could be perceived as weakness. The Kerrey extradition won't play domestically in the the...

And that right there gives the Zhirinovsky supporters the PR victory they are looking for. Even if he isn't extradited, if you don't even have a hearing they can argue that justice in the West is a sham.

Wow, these are AMAZING! Thanks for creating these!

Probably not. But we shall see here shortly...

Arrangements with Commonwealth countries are set under The London Scheme and are implemented by the Extradition (Commonwealth Countries) Regulations 2010). Under British law he would have the right to a hearing in 21 days in the U.K. To challenge the extradition. But that in and of itself is...

A new league will take a few seasons to find its footing. Maybe have a cable network pick it up after NBC drops them. Cut the budget accordingly and then sit back and let the league grow on its own accord over the next few seasons

To be honest, I think that the lack of infrastructure could mean that Algeria is the one dealing with their own (smaller) Western Sahara issue. There are no major ports between the Draa and Western Shahra so I'm not sure if it would be much of a benefit in regards to trade, but if the Algerians...

In. Looks promising

AFTER ZHIRINOVSKY- PART TWO: PLANTING THE SEED CAPITAL OF WAR Some new names in this update: William Roth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_V._Roth_Jr. CARICOM: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caribbean_Community Zell Miller: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zell_Miller Paul O'Neill...

I just now realized this after nearly 5 years,but Mikhail Arutyunov, hero of the UIS democracy movement, the old man who was popular with the UIS youth, and the first major reformer who emerged as a legitimate anti-Zhirinovsky politician in the 1993 election... Well, he looks an awful lot like...

Just an FYI guys, I'm working on cleaning up the old posts and getting them threadmarked. I had a lot of typos on the original (drawback of doing an update a day) and I noticed that the text was really small and hard to read after the switch to the new website. Also, @Taloc13 is, from what I...

Well, as we saw in the above mentioned article about the revived Russian monarchy in Kiribati a single investor was looking to pump $350,000,000 into that project. If we have another rich eccentric billionaire in TTL we are basically 25% there. Now couple that with the prospect that once the...

It's hard to say, but we do know that OTL he ran for President in 1996 and was gearing for another run in 2000 before he died. It is possible he saw a path to the presidency and sought it for himself, power is a pretty powerful motivator. But with that being said, like many Latin American...

Oddly enough but it might have led to a smaller Morrocco. No claims on the Weatern Sahara and it is possible that France would enforce the historic border of Morocco at the Draa River in the south. This could result in Algeria literally surrounding Morocco and having a coast on the Atlantic...
