  1. Mary I of England and Philip II of Spain get one or more children

    He can partition his lands if he wants to. He was ready to give the Netherlands to his daughter's line as soon as one of her children reached adulthood, male precedence be damned (of course none did, thanks to Habsburg inbreeding). Not to mention the guy married his son's bride to get himself a...
  2. Help With Alternate Global Political History for My Timeline

    For clarity, the German Civil War happened in Emperor Julian's TL already and the Poles did get involved at the end. Personally I'd be very interested in reading a detailed German Civil War TL, either as a spin off of EJ's or as an independent TL, so please do it!
  3. Help With Alternate Global Political History for My Timeline

    I'm reading your TL right now. Since you are about to hit 1936, I suppose this is the time to comment on this. There will be a foreign intervention. An Italian lead one. Unless you give Mussolini a really bigger and untimely fish to fry like a war with Germany over Austria or some big power...
  4. AHC: Total split between Austria and Hungary btwn late 1866 and 1900

    I think it's a given that if the Austrian Empire implodes Russia moves in and takes Galitzia. Even Prussia/Germany would welcome it.
  5. AHC: Total split between Austria and Hungary btwn late 1866 and 1900

    Could(n't) Hungary be puppetized by Russia and kept out of Austria/Germany's orbit?
  6. TL-191 Fridge Logic thread:

    There was no mention of the electric chair in any of the books, right? I remember the top freedomites were hanged.
  7. WI: Catherine of Aragon's eldest son survives; no disagreement with the Pope

    If England was fiercely Catholic, could Ireland become Protestant?
  8. Kill the Shakespeare's legacy

    Damn, I was going to suggest the Ruled Britannia TL, except Shakespeare's troupe performs King Philip instead of Boudicca, but the uprising goes ahead anyway and Shakespeare gets murdered and comdemned as a papist collaborator forever.
  9. War Aims of a "Nazi" Russia

    Panslavism plus wholesome destruction and annexation of Turkey.
  10. John of Austria as King of Spain

    I have not the slightest idea if it is plausible or not. But I mused once with the idea of Philip II dying in a hunting accident in the 1560s, leading to his nut-so first child, Don Carlos, becoming a king of the Caligula variety. Eventually the nobility gets sick of him and pushes John of...
  11. WI Theodore Roosevelt is killed in the west in the 1880s?

    The Maine could even not sail for Havanna. I have to research that though. I'm sure, however, that without Roosevelt's direct order Dewey would not have sailed for East Asia, or at least not as soon as he did (which was something very irregular actually). There is a chance that if a...
  12. Alternate names for the Central Powers

    Had they won they'd be known as the Allies, and their enemies as the Entente.
