Let's say a war between the US and the British Empire around the 1890s or early 1900s resulted in America's annexation of Canada. How hard would it be for the US to integrate Canada? Would it constantly be faced with protests and rebellion, or would Canada be integrated relatively smoothly?

If the US were to lose the civil war, how would race relations in the USA proceed? And how would this compare to OTL race relations in the Northern US (and OTL northern US only for this discussion).

OTL, Post WW2, the UK invited immigrants from its colonies or former colonies, including predominantly black colonies like Jamaica, to fill up the labor shortage caused by WW2. Also, during WW2, many African American soldiers were pleasantly surprised by how well they were treated by British...

With a POD of no earlier than Oct 1, 1949, make the PRC a superpower alongside the US by the year 2000. Could this be done if Mao was killed off early on and someone like Deng Xiaoping implemented reforms 20 years ahead of OTL?

Let's say some Communist leader like Castro manages to make Cuba Communist around 1950 and decides to ally himself with the Soviets. The only POD is after 1945, though fictional personalities (which technically require a POD before 1945 but doesn't alter history before then) are allowed. Could a...

What if the Nationalists won the Chinese Civil War, and a nuclear war breaks out sometime in the 1950s/early 60s? The US I feel like wouldn't target Nationalist China as long as KMT China doesn't turn into an open enemy with America. But what about the USSR? Assuming a similar nuke disparity...

Based off the TL 1983 doomsday on wikia, which postulates nuclear war in 1983, how long would it take for population, infrastructure, economic etc... levels to recover back to the prewar state? What would the world look like in 100-200 years? Is it possible for major countries like the US...

The Jews, unfortunately, have been one of the most persecuted people throughout the past millenia. As well all know, persecution came to a horrifying peak in the 1940s and 1950s when the Nazis systemically eradicated about 97.5% of European Jewish population, before the Reich was finally...

Assuming somehow war with the US is averted and the Russians don't steamroll the Japanese in Asia, is it possible for Japan to hold onto Korea indefinitely, or would Korea be able to free itself like how the Soviet republics gained independence after the collapse of the USSR?

Is it possible for the UK to win WWI, and humiliates Germany, causing the rise of Hitler as per OTL while in the same TL, the UK suffer its own communist revolution from the Great Depression? And What would be the effects of this communist UK on WWII?

How close can one try to replicate the world in the Main in the High Castle, with Nazis and Japanese winning the war? I was thinking of perhaps a timeline where Alaska is sold to Japan in the late 1800s instead of the US in 1867. Then history proceeds more or less as OTL until a Great Depression...

1. Was it really all that realistic for a predominantly Native American state to form as a result of CSA victory? It seems more likely to me that the CSA would renege on some promises on the first possible moment. After all, the whites always broke their promises and I see no reason why the CSA...

Let's say with some POD in the late 19th century, tensions in Europe cause WWI to take place in the late 1890s. What would happen if the Boxer Rebellion took place in the middle of this war, with Europeans unable to form the 8 nation alliance?

In the spirit of the new TV series from Amazon Prime "Man in the High Castle", which depicts a fictional world in which Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan carved Europe, Asia, and even the US along the Rockies. Now obviously, such a scenario is ASB given a 1930s POD. So, With a POD of 1800 or...

Let's say in a scenario akin to TL-191, where the the CSA wins the American Civil War and the US is permanently divided half (so unlike TL 191, the CSA is not reabsorbed into the US at a much later date). Japan, like OTL and in TL 191, builds it's empire anyways roughly along the borders of its...

With a POD after the fall of Poland, the Allies defeat the Germans in the battle of France and end WW2 earlier than OTL. Most threads I came across, including the famed TL blunted sickle, seem to talk about how France can win the war itself w/o diving into the aftermath of a dramatically...

What is the longest nuclear weapons can be delayed, with any POD after 1900 and not causing butterflies so that everything up until mid1945 proceeds more or less as OTL.

This is a comparison as to which entity, the ATL Socialist Siberia of 1983 doomsday, or OTL Russia, is better off in the year 2015. This socialist siberia has emerged as the most powerful nation in the Northern Hemisphere, and has some democratic characteristics. Here's a snippet from the wiki...

How hard would traveling great distances be after a nuclear war? This would be based off of the 1983 Doomsday TL which depicts a nuclear war in 1983. For example, Let's say I'm a Mexican living in the Northern US, let's say Boston. The US was destroyed in that TL but not Mexico, and Mexico...

If NK conquers all of the Korean Peninusla, what happens to Jeju Island? Does it become the Taiwan for Korea, or will be occupied/administered by the US and/or Japan?
