  1. AHC: Worst Possible Great Depression?

    A second, stronger Republic of the Rio Grande (or just a militant Mexico) that brings hell down on the on the lower Mississippi?
  2. What if the Britons had successfully defended its self from the saxon germanic invas

    If you want to keep a sub-Roman Britain, you'll need to to have Hengist and Horsa drown in a storm, but that's only if you accept legend as truth. You'll kinda have to make up a history as much isn't known about sub-Roman Britain. You could have them repel the invasions, conquer and...
  3. The Legacy of Tippecanoe: An American Timeline

    You have me hooked on the subscription worm.
  4. WI: Charles II isn't impotent

    Now, OTL, Charles had no heir and so made Louis XVIs grandson Philip V heir to Spain, ending the a Spanish Hapsburgs and brining in the Bourbons. What would happen if he had a legitimate heir, for our purposes Charles III? Obviously the War of Spanish Succession would be avoided, but would Spain...
  5. Sumer is Icumen In - From Vinland to Finland

    How did you have the Grœnlanders retain their independence? OTL they submitted to Norway a year before Iceland. Alba is what Scotland was until after it's war for independence, so Albion must be Scotland.
  6. What affect would the Hajj have on an Islamic colonization of the Americas?

    If Muslims were to settle the Americas, using their technology (I know, I doubt it too), what would the required pilgrimage to Mecca effect on the colonization? Would it stop it from happening in the first place?
  7. AHC: Most nations in the world are Communist

    If you are too get communism in Germany, you'll need too either have Hitler accepted into the art school, or get killed in the War, so the Nazi Party doesn't grow to prominence and remains a bunch of war veterans with nostalgic feelings for the crushed German nationalism.
  8. AHC: Make America 25% or more Muslim by 1900

    I wonder how Russia would respond to a new Byzantine state, with all their Third Rome and stuff.
  9. 12th Century Muslims reached America?

    The mosque may have just been no more then a temple pyramid. After, all the Mayans and Tainos certainly had contact. http://indigenouscaribbean.ning.com/group/archaeologyofthecircumcaribbean/forum/topics/mounting-evidence-of-mayataino
  10. What if feudal Japan wasnt isolationist.

    I think the OP means Edo period, not the warring states period. I see Christianity spreading farther, probably across Shikoku and that peninsula of Honshu above Skikoku, and a civil war between the Shintoists and Christians around 1700. With the proximity you might even get a Christian...
  11. WI: Pagan Byzantine Empire?

    Now Jesus Christ as the shahanshah of Persia comes to mind.
  12. WI no Belgian monarch colonizes the Congo ?

    First one that comes to my mind is no Rwandan genocide. Other than that, Germany might get a headstart in the Scramble. Perhaps the Scramble for Africa is avoided?
  13. Is there anything preventing Odoacer from just declaring himself Emperor?

    What was there for him to declare Emperor over?
  14. WI: Pagan Byzantine Empire?

    Why not make Jesus Christ the Emperor of Rome? It's about as hard as that. It may have been 50 years since state Christianity was adopted, but it was there long before then.
  15. AHC: Samiwank

    Who would convert them if the Norse would remain pagan (which would require a HRE-screw)? The English ships sailing the Barents Sea for fur didn't happen until the 1500s. Yes, they are the same words. To oversimplify, they are not the same. Finns inhabit the eastern Gulf of Finland, and the...
  16. AHC: Make America 25% or more Muslim by 1900

    Why the Iroqouis? As an example of their small population, the Kanienkehaka (Mohawk) had the highest percentage of people enlisted to war during WWII of any native tribe, even though only 500 enlisted, as their population was so small. Of course, that was just one member, and I am sure your idea...
