Would there be anything to provoke substantial waves of immigration to the American southern states INSTEAD of the northern states prior to the American Civil War? Also, what effects would this have on the war itself? Would there be huge draft riots in the south like there were in the north...

Been kicking this idea around for about a year. I've got almost 40,000 words so far. This is the first paragraph. Looking for constructive input. In the wake of the Wars of Spanish and Austrian Succession, the British made advancements and claims into American lands that extended deep into...

Is there a way to provoke Canada to revolt against the British crown during the American Revolutionary War to such a degree that Canada would be linked with the United States to this day?

Just like it says. Have the Red Army become so weakened by the Nazi war machine that Operation Unthinkable is left on the table. The factors in accomplishing this are bound to be legion.

I would like to know what the qualifications for statehood are in the United States. I can't find the information anywhere, but I believe the population of a territory had to be at a minimum of 40,000. Can anyone clear this up?

Hitler drew the ire of the western allies when the Wehrmacht invaded Poland. His goal was always the Soviet Union; if we've said that once we've said it a thousand times. What if, instead of going through Poland, Hitler took advantage of his quasi-ally Finland in 1940 and came through the...

How would the modern State of Israel arise in its OTL location and size without the Holocaust? Would Zionism in and of itself be enough to fuel the creation of Israel? When would be a possible date for establishment? Would Israel be invaded immediately by its Arab neighbors?

What factors need to be in place for the printing press to be invented in England AND 100 years earlier than OTL?

Looking for a historical account of the Third Carnatic War for a timeline I'm working on. I couldn't find anything specific on Amazon and God knows a public library won't have anything :rolleyes: Does anyone know of any titles that cover this Indian "chapter" of the Seven Years War?

I will admit that I know precious little on the topic and didn't want to resort to Wikipedia as many are prone to do. I'm looking for ways to keep Ireland in the United Kingdom without them wanting to secede and without requiring bloodshed from either side. How can this happen?

King George II's son William, the Duke of Cumberland, was unsuccessful at the Battle of Hastenbeck in defending Hanover. Consequently, he was essentially disowned by his father. Could Cumberland have become King instead of George III? How would that change things in the Seven Years War...

Consider this one a "double." I searched high and low for any timelines already on this site for these and couldn't find them. Would it be possible to create a situation where John Wycliffe and his Lollards are wildly successful well beyond OTL? Successful in their efforts and with his...

I'm looking for a good alternate history book or novel of the Seven Years War/French and Indian War. Do any exist?

Just like it says. Create circumstances to have Virginia and West Virginia as a whole state again even after West Virginia's statehood gets Supreme Court approval.

***I posted this on the map request page last week and only got a bunch of views. I'm posting it here in the hopes that I'll get a useful reply.*** Just like it says. If anyone has one, I need an accurate map of the area surrounding Boston during the time of the French and Indian War and about...

Just like it says. If anyone has one, I need an accurate map of the area surrounding Boston during the time of the French and Indian War and about a ten mile radius out from the city. Thanks much.

What would have been possible ripple effects for a British/Hanoverian victory at Hastenbeck? Would this have shortened the war in Europe? What about the war in America? Curious for a timeline I'm working on.

If the Confederacy were to choose a different capital besides Montgomery/Richmond, which city do you think would be most likely and why? I've thought about them choosing Atlanta because of its centrality within the CSA, but its 1860 population didn't even exceed the 10,000 mark. Which would be...

Would it be possible/plausible to fracture Britain up into separate entities of England, Scotland, and Wales? Bonus: Ireland remains united/no Ulster migration. What would have to happen in order for this all to occur?
