  1. Inglorious Basterds- what happens next?

    DON'T READ IF YOU'VE NOT SEEN THE FILM! The Nazi leadership is assassinated while watching a propaganda film in Paris, in June 1944. Ignoring the ASB aspects of Hitler, Goebbels et al visiting occupied Paris at this late stage of the war, how does the global situation play out after this...
  2. AH Challenge: Syria Wank

    While browsing wikipedia, I came upon this, a map of "Greater Syria" as planned by a nationalist whose name escapes me. Though the map is from much later, your challenge is to construct a Syrian state covering as much of this area as possible with a POD after hmm, the Crimean War. Bonus points...
  3. WI Constantine's son Crispus survives?

    How does the Empire develop after his father's death? From what I've read he was a talented politican, decent general, and was very close to his father, before the events of 326 that is. So what if Crispus survives to 337, and becomes the sole Augustus Claudius III, with his younger half...

  5. Victory at Adrianople

    WI the eastern Emperor Valens had displayed a tad more tactical sense, waited for his nephew Gratian to arrive with substantial reinforcements, and then move in on the cornered and starving Goths, instead of blowing it all on one massive throw of the dice? I know that the Romans will still...
  6. British Political POD.

    Ok, let's say that Michael Howard and the Tories do slightly better in the 2005 General Election; perhaps, as Howard later regretted not doing, they attack Blair far more for not having a better plan for Iraq after overthrowing Saddam. Their campaign is slightly smarter than in OTL, and it pays...
  7. Challenging EU Challenge!

    This came to me in a dream last night, and was, in my humble opinion, rather a cool idea. Your challenge, with a POD any time after 1945 is to create the title "Holy Roman Emperor of the European Union" as title of the head of state of the EU. This can be an elected monarchy if you choose, but...
