July 1863: The seige of Vicksburg fails, and President Lincoln loses against his challenger Democrat George B. McClellan. Peace is made with the Confederacy, who's people and leadership wearily welcomes peace. An era of rebuilding occurs, and some industrialisation begins in some less devastated...

One on one, how long does Japan last? In OTL, the bulk of the US commitment was in Europe against the Nazis, while the Pacific front ran on shoe-string budgets. What I'm asking is for a full hundred percent focus on the Japanese ,with no European commitments than those that already existed.

What if the explosion doesn't happen, and the Porteguese line is broken? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahmed_Gragn#Ethnicity http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethiopian-Adal_War

Italy's army was at its pinnacle in the 1920's, and much of its equipment had over the 30's and 40's became obsolute. Tankettes, biplanes, etc... So the order of invasions went like this OTL: Ethiopia Albania Yugoslavia Greece And IITL: Greece Yugoslavia Albania Ethiopia So what would be...

As seen above. A lesser challenge you can take would be only ECW surviving.

Basically what is says in the title. Dissolve them by no later than one year after the USSR falls.

Create a Greater Albania consisting of all Albania and Kosovo, as well as Albanian minority provinces in Greece, Montenegro, Macedonia and whatever other provinces I missed. POD has to be in the 1920's.

What if the Ottomans won the war against the Italians? :confused: They were getting pretty hammered in Libya with only the local garrisons and tribes, as I recall; so if the Ottomans did decide to fight a full war, would they have won?

When the attacks began on Iraq by Coalition forces, the Iraqi airforce suffered the most, with nearly a hundred aircraft heading to Iran, then an enemy of Iraq. A recent discovery of 17 jets in Serbia has just occured by the Defense Ministry and it triggered this in my head: What if when the...

What if the issue of Kansas was won by the pro-slavery settlers and people who lost OTL. How could they win this, and what effects would this have on a future Civil War?

Lets say that Stephen is made president (through a combinations of Toomb's drinking being more publicised, his being more inclined to the position and Davis not.) Where would Jefferson Davis be used in the military? Would be serve as some General-in-Chief or take a position in either the West or...

What would the economic scene look like, if there was no WW1? Russia and China were two of the fastest growing economies before the war. There might have not been such a depression post war when the returning soldiers came back. Perhaps no Prohibition, or an even stronger one? How would the...

Is it at all possible, that intead of colonising relatively worthless territories in Africa, the Kaiser would instead focus on the Pacific and Asia? Could he make a deal with the Dutch to take over Indonesia, or perhaps meddle in the affairs of Siam? Maybe a larger involvement in China? How...

Well, the dust has settled, and from the looks of it the Ethiopian Emperor has surrendered. Can't really blame the chap, the capital's nothing more than a rat's nest and the rest of the country is little better. They put up a brave and long struggle, but in the end, they had to surrender to the...

From my good buddy I Blame Communism, I've learned that the Jacobites were a popular movement that was based on Scottish Nationalism, and they had a real chance of overthrowing the goverment of the time. Now, I don't know much about these Jacobites or the time period, and my search engines have...

Well, we all knew this was coming sooner or later, but the 6th and final season of Firefly has been mostly produced and shown. The show's been through a lot, from the meeting of the Tam siblings, the situation of the Hands of Blue, the Unification Wars Arc, and the Browncoat resistence against...

In the Last Samurai, the last charge on horseback was stopped in the nick of time by Gatling guns. My question is, what if the gunners had been too slow in loading them or the guns jammed?

Now the Marshall Plan was preformed to aid the economies of Europe after the 2nd World War, and had been a major part of the reason West Europe was richer than the Warsaw Bloc and their close relations with the USA. Now with a Nazi ruled Europe, could there have been an alternate Marshall Plan...

Link to the discussion thread Part I: Meeting the Stranger 1900 Mecca, Hejaz.... Husayn Bin Ali was returning from the evening prayers to his home, wondering about the fate of his family with the ever greedy and hostile Young Turks in power. Not for the first time did he curses the rise of the...
