How about Byzantium never lets Vencie of the leash and makes of it just another Adriatic coastal town, like Zadar or Kotor. edit:Xavier got it faster :)

I keep reading that USA would soon outproduce the Megaxis in the fleet assets. I am curious where is that coming from. As far as I am aware the Megaxis fleet would probably obliterate the USA fleet. Wouldn't they then proceed to destroy USA construction sites along the Atlantic? With that...

Also archeology, lingusitics and antropolgy isn't still sure what Avars and Huns were. Avars for example duing the first Khaganate had less than 10% of people with "mongoloid" features and up to 10% duing the second Khaganate. Also the Avars of Europe are not the Avars of central Asia. The...

Maybe with a failed Normandy landing they would try Churchils plan of landing on the Eastern Adriatic coast, in order to defeat Germans and limit Soviet control in estern and central Europe.

Is that independent Croatia in 1895?

Magyars are still to far away at this point. The question is with a functioning Avar Khaganate would there even be a Magyar movement westward.

Two maps I made for my A&A gaming group. The first is before WW II begins in 1944 - the PoD is 19th century Russian Federation + Italian Republic + U.S.A. vs German, French, British and Japanese Empire The second is before WW I begins in 1937 - the PoD is 17th century A free for all game...

Interesting timeline. Just a small question raised by the "camera" picture. Did Yugoslavia get invaded?

I came across it by accident almost two years ago. There is one with names of countries in english and in their native tounges but I haven't got the version without borders.

They spoke Moravian. Their chirtianity was preforming a balancing act between Rome and Constantinopole.

Mark Anthony who was at least in the begining the senior partner takes Cesars place, marries Cleopatra and rules with an Iron Grip until maybe Agripa decides to challenge him. Probably no Roman Empire for some time, the period of civil wars extended some 50-100 years. Potential for Rome to...

Considering everything I believe that Great Moravia would much more likely include Transdanubia than Lusatia. With no dinastic turbulance, GM will be strong enough to reppel the Magyar when they come, meaning no Hungary as we know it and maybe no Hungary at all.

I agree with you that this outcome is almost impossible. When I scetched the above map I had this line of thought. In year 623 the Samo uprising took place among the Slavs in the west of the Avar Khaganate, joined by the Slavs west of the Khaganate border. Unlike IOTL White Croats join this...

Maximum extent of a realistic Croatia wank? Hmmm with a PoD in the early 600 we could get this... ... I wouldn't go beyond this. Such a Croatia would be the counterbalance to Frankish/Frech west. Not to mention that in this scenario it would be a Croatian ruler that would be the patron...

Depending on the PoD it could realisticaly include medieval Hungary, most of the eastern Adriatic coast and chunks on the western. The point is that once you get Croatia to actually be an "Empire" it can basically go into any direction. It could easily turn into central european "Russia"...

Very small. Either Byzantium would need to be weaker with a continuing bulgarian threat, or a stronger Byzantium that would prevent Croats from becoming western christians. PoD's either late 7th century or a very differed 10th century.

The separation happened much earlier at least 150 years earlier when foreign people know of separate groups of Corats and Serbs. Archeological records show there were differences in the material culture as early as late 8th. century with Croats clearly falling into the horizon of Chalemange...

Aha Well I personaly think that war groups from which Croats and Serbs originated were allready pretty distinct at the time of their arrival. The problem is how sources are interpreted. There are some 40 named tribes stretching from the Alps to the Black and Aegean Sea. Croats, Serbs and...

I never got that impression that Persians wrecked Anatolia, they were trying to conquer it rather than sack it.
