  1. Dolly Madison Martyred

    For a second I thought this said "what if Dolly Parton was martyred?" XD
  2. More common "continental"-style mens' names in the US and Canada?

    Pretty similar tbh, if we use my family as an example: My grandfather (who immigrated to NZ from Croatia) was named Ante, but went by the named 'Tony' (Ante is the Croatian form of Anthony). My father (i.e. his son) was named Paul rather than the Croatian equivalent Pavle. We also have a family...
  3. Would a victorious Reich moderate?

    Very true. In fact, if I recall correctly, the Romanian leadership in particular (I.e. Antonescu) was very enthusiastic regarding any offensive action taken against Slavs, which they saw as being a "barbarian" threat to Romania, which was an island of Latin culture surrounded by Slavs and...
  4. Would a victorious Reich moderate?

    I always kinda had this thought about a victorious Reich that the people most likely to move to the Eastern Territories are likely to be people that are very poor and have a strong desire to have some form of assets, particularly in Reichskommissariat Moskowien, will probably be what some would...
  5. What side project should I work on?

    Dixie Cola sounds the most interesting to me tbh. It can always be fascinating to see the interplay between iconic brands and the social/historical context in which they operate.
  6. Plausiblity of Greek plot to get rid of the debt

    This is extremely implausible but extremely entertaining.
  7. WI: 4+ Axis nations switch sides in 1943

    After my exams ;)
  8. Plausibility Check: Supreme Napoleon Victory

    Russia in this period isn't Russia in WWII. Demographically, they don't have the numbers to enter into a war of attrition with not only France, but most of Europe.
  9. WI: 4+ Axis nations switch sides in 1943

    I've always kinda wanted to do a short TL on this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorkovi%C4%87%E2%80%93Voki%C4%87_plot Basically, near the end of the war there was a plot to overthrow the Ustase government in the 'Independent State of Croatia' and install a pro-Western government led by the...
  10. Evolution of the Fourth-century diplomatic paradigm between the Roman Empire and the Barbaricum

    I'm of the opinion that many of the Germanic 'barbarians', especially the Goths, would have developed independent kingdoms north of the Roman frontier that would consolidate. Where it really gets interesting is whether the Germanics would be able to withstand or integrate the coming Slavic...
  11. WI: Latin empire survives?

    Okay so I don't know much about the Latin Empire or the Byzantines at this period but can someone please explain to me why the Venetians didn't come to their aid? The Latin Empire seems like it would be an ideal client state for them.
  12. Cold War Parity Scenarios

    My TL Stars & Sickles, whilst far from finished, is developing into this, at least to an extent. Even if we leave aside the inherent differences between the Soviet and American economic systems, the United States had a significant geopolitical advantage. It had many more allies, a greater...
