But who would then work the fields? There was a reason why Helots were left alive.

I was readding some stuff today and this just came out of nowhere a time line in which Croatian nationalists form the core of the Axis resistance rather than communists. When Hawks Fly 6.4.1941. Axis forces invade Yugoslavia and Greece. 8.4.1941. Bjelovar uprising. The 108th...

A map I made for a TL that I am sorting out before I post it. The PoD is second half of the 7th century. White countries are in some sort of political coexistance with Croatia Kingdom Principality of Balaton - personal union Kingdom of Doclea - blood realtion between ruling houses Kingdom of...

After some thinking and reading stuff I have decided that a PoD in the later half of the 8th century would be the best. To steer me on my endavour I have created the map of Europe for year 1102. The countries in white are in some form of political coexistance with Croatian Kingdom...

Indeed they had but it was mostly made out of Phoenician and Jonian Greek sailors.

Greek and Phoenician colonisation had been going for more than 200 years by then so I would say the Persians could easily navigate the sea through their Phoenician subject as well as Jonian Greeks.

What is that odly shaped dark colour west of Bosnia?

If Ustashe are not in power Croats would rather say in Yugoslavia with the Serbs than have anything to do with Italy.

I appologize for the misunderstanding. I am trying to get all the shortening as best as I can. I just though it was a more elabourate way of "what if".

Carthage was a developed town/city with its own colonies and a strong grip over the western mediteranium, waring with the greek city states on Sicily and elsewhere.

The Hungarians were as good as beaten when Russians entered the game, so without Russian intervention it would have taken a bit longer but it would still happen. The forces from Croatia and military frontier where the key to eliminating this revolt. Keep them out of the fray (which will be hard...

There are some flimsy archeological evidence that Persian units penterated into Balkans as far west as Posavina. Greece I think would be as far as they would go, considering how much trouble keeping Greece would be. Also at this time Rome is mud brick middle of nowhere (archeologicaly speaking)...

After spending some six months mostly reading what other people have done and offering an advice here and there I have decided to make my first timeline. Due to beeing my first I chose to do something closer to home (though I am already planing an alternate migration to Britania). I will be...

I am not sure if you are aware that in OTL first Yugoslavia would have probably disolved by the end of the 1940's peacefully had Germans not invaded. In 1939 Cvetković-Maček agreement was made that apeased the vast majority of both Croats(9/10) and Serbs(7/10), basically dividing the land into...

Just small bits of information. As far as archeology is concerned the Dorian migration didn't happen. Sea peoples were most likely Mycenean Greeks from would be Ionia (based on distincitive headwear, pottery and diet examination of the later Philisteans). The story on which Aeneid was based...

Just to set some things strait. Ustashe were a marginal terrorist group that had litte to no support among the Croats before German occupation in OTL. There were no more than 300 members prior to April 10th 1941. The only reason these imbecils came to power was because HSS (Croatia Peasantas...

There is a little problem with that scenario just as it was with OTL. Even before the defeat of the Gepids the Lombards have entered Italy (in historic and archeological terms Italy starts in the Emona valley) and have penetraded Pannonia Prima entirely as well as most of Pannonia Valeria...

I really don't see Slovenians or Croats going to help Austrians. They couldn't wait to get rid of the Austrians and I sincerely doubt anyone except some diehard royalists would go but these would mostly be among the nobility. Yugoslavia in 1938 was already a failed state just waiting the spark...

With fractured christianity and such influential Islam we could easly see Slavs taking the road of Khazars and opting for Judaism rather then joing eithr of the two poles. On the other hand with such pressing matters at home and states that are not as influential as in OTL to serve as exaples...

Well first you would need a much weaker eastern frankish empire or even no eastern frankish empire and you would need charlemange to expand less to the east than he did. Maybe focus on conquering Iberian peninsula rather than expanding eastwards.
