I think the main effect would be in that it shatters the Japanese military's doctrine on emphasizing morale. Before the horrors of World War I with its sundry assortment of murderous weapons it was assumed that superior morale could win the day. It turns out you need superior firepower too...

Anything involving Sankara seems to be the only way to expand Burkina Faso unless you want to meddle about with the scramble for Africa and internal French Colonial Administrative boundaries in West Africa.

Even the hardliners in Moscow were realistic about prospects in Afghanistan. Taraki and Amin's infighting and Amin's Stalinist policies which alienated the countryside caused the problem to get much worse. Remember, Amin overthrew Taraki after Taraki's plan he conjured in Moscow (with Brehznev...

OR Dramatically accelerate the progress of technological development so that before 1900 we have functioning 3D printers, thus having gone through our industrial cycle 3D printers are able to revive artisanal production.

Well I always thought that any Red America would be more Syndicalist with various trade unions becoming the "organic institution" for the proletarian rather than the Marxist-Leninist argument of the political party being the vanguard. While I'm not sure on its overall optimism I would recommend...

I vote for Virulent.

That is the American Commonwealth. A temporary association of states that resent the military "guidance" over the White Movement and eventually (and temporarily) break from the White Government. Its a coalition of Rural Populists, Liberals, and Moderate Conservatives. It does however have...

( I hope an animated map is okay ) The 2nd American Civil war began after the American Socialist Unity Party lost the 1932 presidential elections in a corrupt bargain. Despite winning a majority of the popular votes it failed to gain a majority in the Electoral College. Nevertheless it still...

I've seen this argued both ways, but I would be curious to hear what AH.com has to say on the issue. Furthermore I have heard it argued that without the stop and hold order the Wehrmacht would have had to retreat and give up much ground in the center (possibly all the way to Minsk I've heard...

While this is true I think its a mischaracterization to conclude that the Nazi State was not centralized. It was very centralized, its just that there were various competing institutions and individuals with an unclear relationship and power within the bureaucracy was based on who you knew and...

The thing about any Polish rebellion (and to a lesser extent Lithuanian Rebellion) was that both Prussia and Austria had no desire to see a resurgence of any Polish state.

Far easier : "Cossacks" becomes the name of an outlaw gang like the "Hell's Angels" or "The Mongols" , said criminals clash with banditos.

The Lebanese Civil War was very messy. The best way to get Israel to annex Lebanon is to have a more left-wing Syria (see fear-not the revolution, it's an amazing TL) intervene vigorously in the Lebanese Civil War and switch sides even more than it did OTL. Have the Christians of Lebanon...

I don't remember who made the following flag, but I think this is a good flag. - Whites and blacks together (I presume poor whites are necessary for the revolution - Allusion to cotton and peace - Red Star - Aesthetic

Arles or Massalia might be a good location as its central to all parts in the Western Empire.

Hello there, I see you are quite new. Literally thousands of hours of research, hundreds of scholars and historians, and many more enthusiasts, have all written about what an unmitigated disaster and impossibility Sealion would be. I suggest you check out this thread...

Stop and hold : With the arguable exception of Winter 1941 this order was universally disastrous by not allowing tactical retreats. Kursk might have gone way better if the original German plan of retreating and luring the Soviets out of their defensive belts ala Kharkov had been enacted (though...
