  1. Hannoverian colonial empire

    I sincerely doubt it, at best the colony would tiny. Hannover does not have capacity to hold on to any colonies against the major powers as Britain is not obligated to protect it, it has relatively few people in turn minimising the possible size of any prospective colonies and of course limited...
  2. AHC: Have a British Monarch exercise Royal Veto

    There are several instances where the current Monarch could have used her veto and possibly have had it supported. In these cases I would say that the most liely result would be that the legislation in question would be put to referendum, and the standing of the monarchy would be put to...
  3. A few Australia-related questions

    Most if not all of these states were a part of the Council of Australasia, a pre-federation inter colonial body that resembled the EU in many ways. The goal of the council was to eventually form a federation within the British empire comprised of all member states, though this did not come about...
  4. WI: No partition of India

    Well I would imagine what is Pakistan today would be far better off, however the probability for a Religious conflict would rise immensely. However I do believe that all things considered the Indian subcontinent would be have been far better off leaving the Empire united. Have a nice day. -MRegent
  5. AHC: Save the Soaps!

    What? Why would anyone want to watch those inane spectacles of narrative garbage? Why would you want to inflict them on more of the populace? I say make them the only television available in prison, that way you get more viewership and encourage people to stay on the straight and narrow. Have...
  6. A United Ireland as Part of Great Britain

    Potatoes. :) Have a nice day. -MRegent
  7. WI a very different distribution of world population

    I don't see how this is possible. The native North Americans would suffer the same fate as their OTL counterparts, leaving the world with perhaps a billion or so lesss people in the modern era. Have a nice day. -MRegent
  8. Have Westerners/British A Majority in India

    :eek: Er.. Ah.. No. Just no. India already had a huge population, reducing it to the point where westerners had the majority would have to include natural disasters, diseases more deadly than the plauge and mass cultural conversion. In short, you might as well have Europe attempt to...
  9. Challenge: Make your home town a capital city

    Well Perth is already the state capital, all you have to do is somehow get Canberra or London to accept the 1930's indepedence referendum and viola! Perth the Captial of Westralia. Have a nice day.
  10. Operation Unthinkable carried out

    There was a reason it was called Unthinkable, it would be like India attacking China or UNASUR (or however it's spelt) the USA. No, actually it would be millions times worse, the soviet was both the strongest, most populus and most exprienced army in human history at that point. The only way the...
  11. DBWI: Interventionist US

    Well one result may well be that Ireland would be independent. I know this is old rope at this point but the USA was, and to an extent still is, pro-Irish independence. At the very least they could have influenced Britain to grant them home rule. -MRegent
  12. The reunification of London, 20 Years on.

    Britain partially annexed? What appears to be a Soviet Sealion!? Sounds like a nightmare I once had after too much tea. Just what happened to the Royal family in this anyway? -MRegent
  13. WI: A Very Split USA

    You're very welcome. Now, I would like to make a few reccomendations in the spirit of helping one another improve their works. You have obviously seen quite a few threads, and likely have a few ideas about the history of the USA. The best advice I may give you (even as someone who has...
  14. WI: A Very Split USA

    All this and Canada somehow avoided taking Alaska and some of the norhern states? Did the British empire collapse earlier in this timeline? In regards to the rest of the map I can hardly see how these borders could occur without a number of highly unlikely events, not the least of which is the...
  15. What made the English so great?

    I suppose one could say that the English had no real advantage culturally, their main geographic advantage as an Island and lack of enemies of substance within Britain allowed them to grow as a nation. However they also lacked any real weakness, to this day the United Kingdom, despite...
  16. British Federation of nations?

    Perhaps it might have come about in a devolved model, that is the Dominions having control over their own affairs in exchange for a reduced amount of seats in London. I still doubt that would have satisfied the desire for independence during the 20th cerntury though. -MRegent
  17. AHC: Australia-wank

    I'm not certain it can be done, or at least to the point where Australia is any better off than in OTL. Australia's maxiumum population in the 20th centaury would be somewhere around 30 million, not only due to lack of livible land but due to lack of water. Even now we're facing water...
  18. Your Challenge - Destroy France!!!

    Oh my, this should be quite intersting. While I personally happen to like France, let's see try at this. From a Vichy France scenario: Former France will be divided into numerous administrative regions, each with a puppet government of former French politions. Every geographic feature and...
  19. Republic of Australia

    I would have probably sulked, then again considering I was only eight at the time I might not have noticed until I started researching this sort of thing in high school. Still, even if I believed in republicanism if I was as of voting age at the time I still would have voted against it. Not...
  20. 9/11 expanded to Europe

    Well if they hit Buckingham palace, there's a chance of killing the Queen. Whatever you think of the Royals killing a head of state is a sure-fire way of getting the nation up in arms. -MRegent
