What is IDU anyway? I couldn't get satisfying results from uncle Google. ;)

Damn you John Anderson, stealing away votes from Reagan! :mad: But in my opinion, some people judge Reagan rather unfairly. He wasn't a president who didn't give away (too much) tax gifts. He raised taxes when he had to. While wealthier people shoud have been taxed more, I think he still had...

I thought it's set that we're playing with 24 teams. Besides, I came up with the Greater Netherlands in the first place. ;)

I think the Greater Netherlands need to be larger. It should encompass all of OTL Belgium, as well as Luxembourg. Having said that, here's the squad of Greater Netherlands: GK: #1: Maarten Stekelenburg #16: Thibaut Cortois #22: Tim Krul DF: #2: John Heitinga #3: Daniel van Buyten #4: Joris...

My bad. Apparantly I didn't count right. Well, no Euro for Arjen Robben then. :(

I understand that there is one more spot left. So I enter this team: Team United Kingdom of Greater Netherlands (Verenigd Koninkrijk van Groot-Nederland) (OTL Netherlands sans Frisia, plus Belgium and the area around Calais) Nickname Orange Lions (Oranje Leeuwen) Home Stadium Haarlem Stadion...

Adenauer is was Germany needed after the war, so my vote goes to the CDU!

I think it was in 1991, so years before Suge signed 2pac for Death Row.

IOTL, Suge Knight once confronted Vanilla Ice, because Ice apparantly stole material from one of his clients. Some versions even claim that Knight held Ice by his ankles off of a 20th-floor balcony. Let's say that Knight drops Ice somehow and he is subsequently charged with murder. Knight in...

The I.G. Farben might have become so powerful in a victorious Nazi Germany that might have set up their own state in the areas of the former Soviet Union. Perhaps a slave state where the "Fatherland" can outsource their dirty jobs, and where the SS keeps "order".

I guess the iPad would be just laughed at by TTL Sovets :D But I think that the replacement of traditional books might be controversial. In my opinion there just too many people who love the rustle of book pages, and to just use pen and paper. On the other hand, you just saved a lot of trees...

Great update once again. I really hope that the fighting bits end soon, and that we'll get to see more of Katanga itself. Of society and such. I don't want to write many more commercials for Katanga. :p

TTLs civil was BTW very similar to the civil war in Kaiserreich. Except that the west coast doesn't seceed and Long's fighting alongside the revolutionaeries.

Goldwater had some right ideas, but they came perhaps at a wrong time. Nonetheless I voted for him, since I figured that the majority here will vote for LBJ anyway.

*Evil psychotic grin* YEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!! :D But we shall wait for o.a.musimon. These are his ideas after all, and we shouldn't dickishly ignore them.

I'd probably merge the rebels and the ultra-nationalists, although the civil war sounds nice. But we should wait for o.a.musimon, because he came up with ideas after all.

I would wait until the '93 coup attempt, before we get rid off Yeltsin. But I'd also stick with a Communist-Nationalist coalition, instead of a cliché USSR revival. Perhaps even a National-Bolshevist Russia by 2000?

Perhaps by some "covert" support by Russia. Although I can't quite see it happening with Yelzin is power. But we haven't reached 1993 yet...

February 21st, 1992 - The resolution to send peace troops to Yugoslavia fails because of Russia's veto. Russia's veto comes largely because of the missing coordination between Presidents Quayle and Jelzin. However, some far-right Republicans start accusing the Russians to secretly support...

One movie that could be even bigger ITTL might be "The Terminator". The dystopic future brought by nuclear weapons might shock people, but shock value draws many people into cinemas after all. Furthermore, the movie didn't cost much money IOTL, and ITTL it probably won't cost much either. Of...
